Our Arabic Language for Grade Seven follows the curriculum for Arabic language and its general framework; it includes eight units. The writer was careful to choose a variety of reading texts such as poetry, narration, Quranic verses, hadiths, samples of scientists’ biographies, cultural, nationalistic, and Islamic essays, in addition to scientific, social, and literary articles, stories, plays, and tales. The book includes samples of feminist literature so that students can become familiar with different social issues and be equipped to communicate with others about these issues, while listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The units are handled in the following way:

1. Reading Skill, and it includes:
• The text, which is presented with full vowelization (tashkeel) and citation of the source
• The context, which includes a full introduction of the author, their most important achievements, and a brief description of the text and its context
• The reading, which includes exercises that focus on timed silent reading, expressive reading, and good recitation, taking into consideration the appropriate voice, and when to pause and how to continue
• The glossary, which includes exercises that explain new vocabulary through the following methods: using a dictionary, using antonyms and synonyms, and using other appropriate methods such as guessing meanings and using related words and context clues
• Reading comprehension and analysis, which includes questions and exercises to help students name the primary idea and secondary ideas, discover relationships and build conclusions, connect the texts with real situations in students’ lives, create secondary summaries for paragraphs, suggest alternative suitable titles for the text, and answer questions that build the student’s critical and creative thinking, problem solving, and appreciation of beauty
2. Grammar: This unit includes grammatical exercises that reinforce Grade Six material. Grammar and morphology should be taught through the texts that include the grammar, followed by study: eliciting the grammar rule from the students through conversation and demonstrating self-learning. Several grammar and morphological exercises are included so that students can learn from the examples. The complementary method was used: it combines inductive and syllogistic methods.
3. Texts: This unit includes a selection of poems students use to increase their ability to read aloud expressively, to understand and enjoy literature, and to maximize their linguistic outcomes. The poetry they memorize also helps them enrich their ability to communicate and express, in addition to introducing them to a new group of authors.

5. Writing: The units include applications of some of the spelling issues presented in texts or sentences, followed by study and exercises.

Come to Success through Living Eman... This dynamic textbook focuses the reader's attention on the necessity to bridge the gap between an intellectual grasp and the practical application of Eman in one's daily life. By exploring the promises of success that Allah SWT has made to believers in His Glorious Qur'an and through the Sunnah of the Prophet, we can begin to see clearly the star of transformation leading to that true and ultimate success - in this life and in the Hereafter. The reader is shown the importance of formulating and purifying intention: performing a basic regimen of moral and spiritual practice… practice… practice; seeking knowledge as a lifelong devotion reflecting on meaning, purpose and benefit; practicing patience and perseverance (sabr) as an indispensable step on the path to success; and most importantly, praying to Allah SWT for His guidance, help and mercy. The requirements of Eman as supplications through worship, vicegerency and morality are looked d closely so that one can see worship as a reality broad as life itself and the virtual joy of living Eman! Vicegerency is shown to have as foundation self-governance, without which the individual is abased, the family is dysfunctional, and communities are corrupt. And Islamic morality is examined and shown to be a perfect code for the art and science of being truly human, a morality which reaches to the very nucleus of our beings and engenders the fulfilling of our Covenant with Allah SWT.
