It is a place of deep historical significance โ inhabited for thousands of years and shaped by civilizations from the ancient Canaanites and Egyptians to the Islamic and Ottoman periods. Despite repeated invasions, occupations, and decades of blockade, Gaza remains standing โ not as a symbol of suffering alone, but of perseverance, pride, and the human will to endure. ๐๏ธ The city is also known as **Gaza Hฤshim** (ุบุฒุฉ ูุงุดู ), in reference to **Hฤshim ibn สฟAbd Manฤf**, the great-grandfather of the Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ, who is believed by many to be buried there. This has given the city a notable place in Islamic history and cultural memory. To speak the name โGazaโ is to remember stories of resistance, roots, and survival. It is to honour a people who continue to live, create, and hope โ even when the world looks away. ๐๏ธ Gaza โ a name we will not forget.

๐ Arabic Language Tip: Understanding the Difference Between ู ุง - ู ู and ูุฐุง - ูุฐู If you're learning Arabic, you've probably come across these words: ๐น ู ุง vs. ู ู ู ุง = What (used for things) ๐ Example: ู ุง ูุฐุงุ (What is this?) ู ู = Who (used for people) ๐ Example: ู ู ูุฐุงุ (Who is this?) ๐น ูุฐุง vs. ูุฐู Both mean "this", but they differ based on gender: ูุฐุง = This (masculine) ๐ Example: ูุฐุง ูุชุงุจ (This is a book) ูุฐู = This (feminine) ๐ Example: ูุฐู ุณูุงุฑุฉ (This is a car) ๐ก So if you see: โก๏ธ ู ุง ูุฐุงุ = What is this? (masculine object) โก๏ธ ู ุง ูุฐูุ = What is this? (feminine object) โก๏ธ ู ู ูุฐุงุ = Who is this? (talking about a male) โก๏ธ ู ู ูุฐูุ = Who is this?

The Spark That Started ALC
While teaching in Bradford for three years, Dr. Abdulrahman Mkia (ALC’s Founder) saw students struggling. They knew grammar but couldn’t hold a real conversation. Often, classes weren’t taught by native speakers, leaving learners disconnected from how Arabic is truly spoken.
He founded ALC to bridge that gapโto teach Arabic the way it’s lived, not just memorised. This commitment to authenticity led us to a key partnership with Akdem Istanbul, Turkey’s premier language education center. Today, we teach their celebrated Miftah Al-Alarabiyya curriculum, and upon completing each level, our students receive official certificates issued directly from the Akdem headquarters in Istanbul.
From the very first ALC Arabic class in Bradford in 2014, with just a small group of students, our family has grown to reach over 200 learners. Throughout this journey, weโve been proud to support them with an amazing team of experienced native teachersโall dedicated to this proven, life-like approach to mastering Arabic.

Curriculum
At ALC, we use Miftah Al-Arabiyya, a curriculum provided by Akdem Istanbul Academy, Turkey. It is developed by renowned scholars of the Arabic language. The curriculum varies in difficulty between Introductory, Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced levels to deliver the material needed to understand everyday Arabic.
