Bags for Arabic course students

By the Madrasah Bag team

Quick answer

Arabic course students typically carry a textbook series (such as the Madinah books), a notebook, a dictionary or app, often a laptop or tablet, and a Quran. The ideal bag keeps the Quran in its own sleeve, has a padded space or cover for the laptop, and is comfortable for commuting.

What's in the bag

The course textbook, often a well-known series such as the Madinah Arabic books
A notebook for vocabulary and grammar
An Arabic dictionary, or a phone app
A laptop or tablet for online components
A Quran, for reading practice

Keeping the Quran and laptop apart

A charger or laptop corner pressing on a mushaf damages it. Use a laptop sleeve, and a separate Quran sleeve or cover.

Commuting comfort

With a laptop, loads reach 2–3 kg. A wide cross-body strap or backpack matters. See bag too heavy.
