New: home-screen widgets for your streak, Kamal's illustrated readers, and 41 Arabic video lessons including the animated Life of Imam Bukhari. Free to learn, no ads.
You already tried to learn Arabic once. Maybe it was another app, maybe the Madinah books. You learned some words, then stalled, because nobody showed you how the language actually works.
Arabic Explorer picks up exactly there. It teaches the system underneath the vocabulary: roots, patterns, verb forms, and the grammar that holds a sentence together. Then it puts you straight into real Arabic, so the rules have somewhere to land.
Free to learn. No ads.
WHY LEARNERS SWITCH
"I tried to learn Arabic by way of the Medina books and only made slow progress. But with this app, making progress has been made easy. I recommend it for everyone struggling with learning Arabic the conventional way."
"An app that finally teaches grammar and sarf. I had been looking for one for so long."
Rated 5.0 on the App Store.
MASTER SARF, THE ENGINE OF ARABIC
Arabic is built on roots and patterns. Learn them once and thousands of words open up.
kataba (he wrote), katib (writer), kitab (book), maktab (office), maktaba (library). One root, five meanings, one pattern you can now recognise anywhere.
* Verb Forms I to X
* Madi, Mudari and Amr
* Passive forms and full pronoun sets
* Conjugation Gym: pick a form, pick a tense, drill it
* Step by step explanations, never bare tables
READ REAL ARABIC FROM DAY ONE
* Qisas al-Nabiyyin: 11 prophetic stories across 217 chapters, graded B1 to C1
* Kamal's readers: short illustrated stories built only from words you have already met
* Listen mode highlights each word as it is read aloud
* Tap any word for its meaning and root, then send it to review
WATCH ARABIC, UNDERSTAND ARABIC
41 video lessons with the Arabic transcript running alongside, including the animated Life of Imam Bukhari series.
* Every word highlights as it is spoken
* Tap a word mid-sentence for the gloss
* CEFR levels marked so you can find your level
THE QURAN, WORD BY WORD
* See exactly how often a verb appears, and in how many surahs, before you learn it
* Verb Journey: the top 500 Quranic verbs, in frequency order
* Daily Word: crack open one Quranic word a day and light up your night sky
* Real verses, not invented sentences
PRACTICE THAT ACTUALLY TESTS YOU
Fifteen quiz types, not one on repeat: sentence building, matching, fill in the blank, listening, typing, diacritic selection and more.
* Spaced repetition that gives you more of what you get wrong
* Daily missions, streaks and XP
* Weekly leagues and friend leaderboards
* Home-screen widgets so your streak is visible without opening the app
WHO THIS IS FOR
* You know the alphabet and want to move past survival phrases
* You want to understand the Quran you already recite
* You are working through the Madinah books or a university course
* You are tired of memorising words that never add up to a sentence
Arabic is not hard. It just needs to be taught in the right order.
Download Arabic Explorer and start with one pattern, one verse, one story.

Great app for practicing Arabic. It had been good to help me brush up on my Arabic even though I’m a native speaker and is completely free. The grammar is really helpful and the audio is accurate. Would recommend beginners to learn how to read Arabic as it helps as lessons progress

Jazakumullahu Khair for these incredibly kind words. Wa iyyakum. Please share with others! :D
Read the Prophet stories in your language! The stories, the readers and the video lessons now come in French, German and Indonesian. If a translation reads wrong, report it and suggest a better one.
Your Words is redesigned: see how strong each saved word is. Mastered words now come back now and then, so they stay mastered.
The Himmah tab has a fresh look: quest cards, a Champion medal and your week at a glance.
And Kamal ate some bugs, so everything runs a little smoother.
