SOME PROBLEMS IN TEACHING THE ARABIC LANGUAGE IN UZBEKISTAN AND PROPOSED SOLUTIONS (CULTURAL, EDUCATIONAL AND SOCIAL PROBLEMS)

In the current process of globalization, the thorough teaching of foreign languages has become one of the priority directions in every country’s education policy. In particular, the Arabic language is recognized not only as one of the most widely spoken languages in the world but also as an important tool for international diplomacy, economy, trade, science, culture, and the study of religious and educational heritage. Interest in the Arabic language is also growing year by year in the Republic of Uzbekistan. This is due to the expanding economic and political cooperation of the country with the Middle Eastern states, the development of pilgrimage tourism, the increasing need to study Islamic sources in their original form, and the advancement of Oriental studies and philology programs in the higher education system.
