After knowing the outlets of the arabic letters it will be easier inshallah to read arabic words. The first thing to learn before starting any other lesson is Surah Al-Fatih for it's the opening of the Quran and without it the prayer is invalid.
[b:90aaf480aa]Surah Al-Fatiha[/b:90aaf480aa]
[b:90aaf480aa]1. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
2. الحمد لله رب العالمين
3. الرحمـن الرحيم
4. مـلك يوم الدين
5. إياك نعبد وإياك نستعين
6. اهدنــــا الصراط المستقيم
7. صراط الذين أنعمت عليهم غير المغضوب عليهم ولا الضالين [/b:90aaf480aa]
[i:90aaf480aa][b:90aaf480aa]1. Bismi Allahi alrrahmani alrraheemi
2. Alhamdu lillahi rabbi alAAalameena
3. Alrrahmani alrraheemi
4. Maliki yawmi alddeeni
5. Iyyaka naAAbudu wa-iyyaka nastaAAeenu
6. Ihdina alssirata almustaqeema
