Khatt: Learn Arabic Writing

Khatt teaches you to write Arabic by hand, one stroke at a time, in short lessons that feel like a game. Follow a path through the alphabet: meet each letter, trace it stroke by stroke, recognise it, copy it, then write it from memory. Khatt checks your writing the way a teacher would: shape, stroke direction, stroke order, dots and proportions. LEARN ON A PATH • Units grouped by shape family (ب ت ث, then ن ي, then ج ح خ…), so each lesson builds on strokes you already know. • Lessons of about ten quick exercises: a new letter, guided tracing, pick-the-letter, listening, match-the-pairs, copying and writing from memory. • Exercises you miss come back at the end of the lesson. • XP, combos, a daily XP goal, streaks and a celebration when you finish a lesson. TRACE STROKE BY STROKE • Each stroke is checked the moment you lift your finger. A good stroke snaps into place; a wrong one shakes off and the stroke is shown again. • Dots are just a tap. • Animated stroke order: ink fills the real letter in pen order, with a numbered start point and an arrow for the next stroke. SEE YOUR MISTAKES MOVE • After you check, your writing slides onto the correct letter, so you can see how far each part was from where it belongs. • Missed strokes are drawn in gold, strokes written backwards get arrows the right way, and your attempt stays behind as a faint ghost to compare. • A score from 0 to 100 with stars, and a clear note on what to fix: missing dots, wrong direction, stroke order, stray strokes or stretched proportions. EVERY LETTER, EVERY FORM • All 28 letters plus hamza and its seats (أ إ آ ؤ ئ), tāʾ marbūṭa and alif maqṣūra: 36 in total. • Each letter in all four positional forms: isolated, initial, medial and final. • The sound of each letter, a writing tip and example words. • Spaced repetition brings letters back just before you would forget them. HADITH CALLIGRAPHY • Write 22 short, authentic sayings of the Prophet ﷺ as whole sentences, from two words to thirteen. • The page glides along the line from word to word, so even a long sentence is written one easy word at a time. Tap any word to go back to it. • Trace first, then copy. The finished sentence is set as a calligraphy panel (levha) in your own hand. • Arabic texts and English translations are from Sunnah.com, each with its reference. WORDS AND VOWEL MARKS • About 40 everyday words and phrases in themed groups, such as greetings and family. • Type any Arabic word and practise it. Letters join correctly, including the lām-alif ligature. • Vowel marks: fatḥa, kasra, ḍamma, sukūn, shadda and tanwīn. A CALLIGRAPHER'S ALBUM • Parchment and gold leaf, illuminated page frames, sura-header units and a path of eight-pointed stars. • Paper, ruled lines and a column of dots that measures the alif's height. • Sounds of plucked strings in maqam Hijaz, and the scratch of a reed pen that follows your writing. • Calligraphy-nib or round pen, in four ink colours. • Stylus-only mode with palm rejection, adjustable strictness, light and dark themes. • Letter names and words read aloud with your device's Arabic text-to-speech voice, when one is installed. SEE YOUR PROGRESS • A chart of the alphabet that lights up as you learn, and a mastery map of every letter. • Streak, daily XP and a 14-day activity chart. • "Then and now": your first attempt next to your best.
