Abstract
Admittedly, one of the problems facing the high school education system in Iran is that students do not show interest in Arabic and obtain very low marks. This is specially important because Arabic is the key to understanding religious texts and our literary and scientific heritage. A study of 400 high school students from various education districts in the city of Mashhad, using a cluster sampling method, shows that the most important factors affecting the interest of students in Arabic are as follows: the attractiveness of the subject itself; students’ awareness of and agreement with the importance of the subject; political and religious orientation of students, students’ awareness of better ways of learning Arabic. Based on the findings, the writer offers the following suggestions: changes in the methods of teaching Arabic, emphasis on class activities; changes in Arabic textbooks and adding a few pages to the books explaining the importance of Arabic; offering methods that can help students learn Arabic better.
