One of the oldest languages spoken today, Arabic has roots dating back to the 5th century BCE. It is spoken by over 300 million people globally, making it the 5th most spoken language. It's also an official language in 22 countries and one of the six official languages of the United Nations.
For centuries, Arabic has played a significant role in India, shaping its religious landscape, cultural identity, and even offering economic opportunities. Islam, a prominent religion in India, considers Arabic sacred as it is the language of the Quran, the sacred book of Islam. Millions of Indian Muslims find deep religious connection by studying Arabic to understand the Quran in its original form. Furthermore, trade routes and cultural exchanges between India and the Arab world for over a millennium left an indelible mark. Arabic loanwords are woven into many Indian languages, and the study of Arabic sheds light on this rich shared history. Current India's strong economic ties with Arab nations make Arabic a valuable skill. Fluency can open doors to jobs in business translation, diplomacy, and the Middle Eastern energy sector.
