There is a wide collection of Arabic language learning books.
The best place to find definitions of Arabic words in Arabic is in an Arabic dictionary, either in book form or online.
Like any language, the best way to learn is by immersion. If that opportunity does not exist for you, I recommend finding an Arab student at one of your local colleges to tutor you. Another option would be to use a software/e-book package that provides an interactive multimedia learning experience. There are some good Arabic books available on the Arabic store website (see related link) the best one for you would probably be the Gateway to Arabic Series because it contains full translation. The most popular book is Kitabul Assasi and is used in many language institutes in the Middle East that foreign students visit. Another great program to learn Arabic is through RosettaStone. Please see the related links for websites that could help you learn Arabic. See related links for great sites to learn Arabic. Or you could buy Rosetta Stone to learn Arabic.

They teach Arabic in Live Video Interactive Classes, with a native Arabic teacher who are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, no fixed pace and no fixed schedule.

The best book is the holy Quran. Also, if you want to learn about the prophets what so ever, you should buy DVDs. They'll let you learn more. But, if you don't know Arabic, there are websites that write it in English that will help you pronounce the words like qurantranslitteration.com

Muslims try to learn to speak Arabic because the Qu'ran is written in Arabic, and Arabic, being the language of the prophet Muhammad, is seen as the language of God. Most Muslims (>70%) do not speak Arabic as a native language, especially Indonesians, Bengalis, and Pakistanis.

There are many resources available. If you want to rely strictly on the internet, there are numerous sites to help you learn Arabic. I would suggest googling "Arabic alphabet" to see what you can find. If you want to get a book or two, the book I'm using so far is called "Alif Baa". Its very thorough and includes a DVD to supplement the text. This book will help learning to read and write in Arabic. It covers all letters and diacritical marks used in Arabic writing. I've been studying Arabic on my own for about a year. I found learning to read it is much easier than learning to spell words. If you want to learn to speak Arabic, you have several choices. You can start by learning what is called "Modern Standard Arabic". This is a form of Arabic which is standard throughout the Arab region. It is more of an "official" form of Arabic and is not used in day-to-day conversations. But it will give you a good starting point to learn other dialects and help you understand the grammatical rules. If you want to speak a "dialect" then you'll have many more choices to consider. I've been told that Egyptian is a very good dialect to learn because it seems to have more widespread usage than say, the Syrian or Saudi dialects. This is due mostly to Egypt's entertainment industry. The Arabic alphabet has 28 letters. Several of which have pronunciations that bear no resemblance to anything in English. So learning their pronunciation will take some practice. As far as listening to learn, Pimsleur has two Arabic courses available. Egyptian Arabic and "Eastern" (this is for Syrian and Lebanese dialects). You can go to Arabic Pod 101. They have podcasts for several dialects. If you have a Mac or PC, you can activate their language keyboards. I own a Mac and have found that activating the Arabic-QWERTY keyboard has been very helpful for me to learn the alphabet as well as learning to read Arabic. Just remember, Arabic is written and read from right to left and vowels are not typically used in written form. And some of the English "vowels" are actually considered consonants in Arabic... Good luck and enjoy...
