About Madinah Arabic Book 2

The Madinah books (Durus al-Lughah al-Arabiyyah li-Ghayr an-Natiqin biha) were written by Dr. V. Abdur Rahim for the Islamic University of Madinah. They build Arabic up step by step through grammar, entirely in Arabic, and are used worldwide in Islamic schools and for self-study.

Book 2 builds directly on Book 1 and moves from simple sentences to verbs and longer texts — the step from beginner to lower intermediate. It adds 464 words.

Frequently asked questions

How many words does Madinah Arabic Book 2 have?

Madinah Arabic Book 2 has 464 vocabulary words across 28 lessons. 208 of them come with a plural form, and 146 are verbs, listed with their past and present tense.

Is there a PDF of the Madinah Arabic Book 2 vocabulary list?

There is no PDF download. Every list on this site is free to view and can be printed straight from your browser. To actually learn the words, the Arabily app turns each lesson into flashcards, quizzes and a spaced-repetition plan.

Why are there no Lessons 8, 22 and 24?

Lessons 8, 22 and 24 are review lessons in the book and introduce no new vocabulary, so there is no separate word list for them.

What is the difference between the Madinah books and Bayna Yadayk?

The Madinah books are grammar-first: each lesson introduces a grammatical point with example sentences. Bayna Yadayk is communicative: units follow everyday topics and train all four skills. Bayna Yadayk also teaches more vocabulary — 4,519 words in three books, compared with 2,767 in the three Madinah books.
