Translated in English Bal-Arabi means In-Arabic and this site is exactly about that: Everything Arabic! Bal-Arabic was founded in 2006 and is wholly owned by Manara Soft. Bal-Arabi is not just another e-bookstore with the mission of selling just about everything to make profit. Bal-Arabi's mission can best be summarized in the following two objectives:
Provide access to Islamic and Arabic books, tapes, media, software, news and cultural events to Arab citizens living abroad allowing them to keep in touch with their rich Arabic society and heritage.
Provide and promote Islamic and Arabic culture to non-Arabs by providing material that sheds light on the various aspcets pertaining to those rich cultures.
Bal-Arabi is located in Cairo, Egypt which is found at the center of the Arab world and which provides the largest number of Arabic publications and is considered one of the main centers of Arabic and Islamic intellectual activity.
