Dubai mourns the passing of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Rashid Al Maktoum — Deputy Chairman of Dubai Police and Public Security, former Commander-in-Chief of Dubai’s Central Military Command, and Group Chairman of A.R.M. Holding.

Born in 1950, he was the youngest brother of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and spent decades in service to Dubai’s security, military and business institutions.
He passed away on Monday, 21 September 2026. Dubai has declared 10 days of official mourning, with flags flown at half-mast across the emirate.

Our thoughts are with the Ruling Family and the people of the UAE. May he rest in eternal peace. 🤍

Here’s what nobody tells you: Modern Standard Arabic is not what people actually speak. It’s the language of textbooks and newsreaders — not the language of real conversations, real friendships, real workplaces.

Emirati dialect is different. It’s the language behind the culture, the humor, and the way people actually connect here in the UAE:

Here’s why you should learn Emirati:
✅ Connect beyond “hello” — go from surface-level small talk to real conversations
✅ Respect goes both ways — speaking someone’s dialect shows you’re not just getting by, you’re genuinely trying to understand them
✅ It opens doors — smoother relationships at work, deeper friendships, a completely different experience of living here

At Al Lahjah Institute, we’re teaching the dialect people actually speak - taught by native Emiratis, built around real-life situations, not textbook Arabic.
