Arabic in Cairo

Five times each day, the crowded streets of Cairo come to a standstill and the Islamic call to prayer is heard echoing from every corner of the city. Take a one-month classical Arabic-language class at the Fajr Center (www.fajr.com) and not only will you understand the call, but you’ll gain deeper insight into one of the world’s oldest and most influential tongues. Just remember: Although you’ll be in the shadow of the Great Pyramids, don’t expect to master Egyptian hieroglyphics while you’re at it – learning how to read Arabic from right to left is complicated enough!
