The Department of Arabic Language and Literature extends a warm welcome to its students and visitors. As one of the university's oldest and most distinguished departments, it has proudly graduated leaders in Arabic language and literature across all academic levels: bachelor’s, master’s, and doctorate.

The department is committed to advancing the Arabic language, a cornerstone of eloquence and divine revelation, and the medium of the Holy Qur’an and the Seal of the Prophets, peace be upon him. In the words of the Poet of the Nile:
"I am the sea; in my depths, pearls lie hidden—ask the diver about my treasures."

Arabic is more than an academic pursuit; it is a tool for expression, comprehension, and cultural refinement. It nurtures intellect, enhances moral values, and elevates taste.

To celebrate International Arabic Language Day, the department, in partnership with the Abdul Hameed Shoman Foundation, organized a remarkable event, hosting poets from Al-Karak and showcasing inspiring poetry recitals by students and faculty.

In addition to its undergraduate program, the department offers advanced studies in language, literature, and criticism, continuing its enduring mission to preserve and enrich the legacy of Arabic.
