I put aluminum foil in the microwave and it arced and caused a burn on the back of the oven so is it safe to use the microwave?

A bit of a burn on the wall of the cavity (the cooking space) in a microwave isn't generally a problem. Remove the foil and avoid placing metal objects back inside the oven again. Put a cup of water inside and see if it boils in a couple of minutes. If so, it is still working and you can use it until it dies naturally.
