Description: This textbook is an engaging, highly illustrated guide to learning handwriting as opposed to the printed form of the Arabic script. Well-formed and fluent handwriting is much admired throughout the Arab world. The book teaches Arabic handwriting in the form universally used by adult native speakers (riq'a) and compares it with naskh, the usual printed form. There are three parts to the book covering: the basic letter shapes, combinations of letters and an additional extended writing section. Clear examples, a wealth of practice material, insider tips from a leading expert, and lively activities and photos make the book easy to follow and enjoyable to work through. The book can be used to supplement the popular Mastering Arabic courses or independently from them. Aimed at beginners or early intermediate learners of Arabic, Mastering Arabic Script is ideal for both self-study use and classroom courses.

Review: This little book was brilliant for practicing my Arabic script. It was recommended to me by my Arabic teacher. It is quite basic but you have plenty of space to practice forming your letters. I would recommend this book alongside an Arabic class as it works well as supplementary material but probably would not be enough to teach you Arabic script by itself. One really useful feature is that it has both printed (naskh) and handwritten (riq'a) Arabic examples (it's surprising how much they can differ!). It improves both your writing and reading of Arabic script and I would recommend it to anyone new to Arabic writing.
