The Arabic alphabet, called Al-abjadiyah, has 28 letters.
All 28 letters are consonants, and most letters have four different forms. Vowels do exist in Arabic
Arabic is written from right to left – the opposite of English. One thing you must get used to in the Arabic script is that short vowels, for instance a, i or u (as opposed to the long vowels aa, uu and ii), are not shown in the script. For the moment, get used to the fact that the word 'bank' (which Arabic has borrowed from English), is written b-n-k. Arabic script is always joined or cursive, ie there is no equivalent of the English text you are now reading, where all the letters have separate forms with spaces between them. There are no capital letters. In cursive script writing letters are joined together by means of joining strokes (called ligatures). As a result, Arabic letters have slightly different forms, depending on whether they come at the beginning, middle or end of a word. A few letters do not join to the following letter, but all Arabic letters join to the preceding one.
The Arabic script evolved from the Nabataean Aramaic script. It has been used since the 4th century AD, but the earliest document, an inscription in Arabic, Syriac and Greek, dates from 512 AD. The Aramaic language has fewer consonants than Arabic, so during the 7th century new Arabic letters were created by adding dots to existing letters in order to avoid ambiguities. Further diacritics indicating short vowels were introduced, but are only generally used to ensure the Qur'an was read aloud without mistakes.
There are two main types of written Arabic:

• Classical Arabic - the language of the Qur'an and classical literature. It differs from Modern Standard Arabic mainly in style and vocabulary, some of which is archaic. All Muslims are expected to recite the Qur'an in the original language, however many rely on translations in order to understand the text.

• Modern Standard Arabic (اللغة العربية الفصحى / al-luġatu l-ʿarabiyyatu l-fuṣḥā) - the universal language of the Arabic-speaking world which is understood by all Arabic speakers. It is the language of the vast majority of written material and of formal TV shows, lectures, etc.
