The Arabic alphabet is the
script used for writing languages such as
Arabic,
Persian,
Urdu, and others.The alphabet was first used to write texts in Arabic -- most importantly, the
Qur'an, the holy book of
Islam. With the spread of Islam, it came to be used to write many other languages, even outside of the
Semitic family to which Arabic belongs. Examples of non-Semitic languages written with the Arabic alphabet include
Persian,
Urdu,
Malay,
Azerbaijani (in
Iran) and
Kurdish in Iraq and Iran. In order to accommodate the needs of these other languages, new letters and other symbols were added to the original alphabet. (See Arabic alphabets of other languages below.)
