Upon the rise of Islam, it is evident that Syria had already begun speaking Arabic prior. Arabic was replacing Aramaic (the language spoken in Syria-Palestina) in the levant region of Arabia by the 5th century, and the speard of Islam increased the transition.


Many Scholar believe that the Aramaic dialect spoken in Palestine, and many areas of Syria, was simply another dialect of Arabic, rather than a different language.

Both languages are extremely similar, and part of the semitic language family, along with Hebrew.

The Arabic language began to spread in the region that is present-day Syria after the Islamic conquest in the 7th century. Over time, Arabic became the dominant language in Syria due to the influence of Islamic culture and administration.
