This study outlines a comprehensive investigation into the multifaceted phenomenon of Arabizing science in the Arab world. Drawing on historical context that underscores the symbiotic relationship between language and scientific advancement, the research addresses the critical debate surrounding the feasibility and desirability of Arabization. It highlights the inherent difficulties in translation and terminology standardization, alongside concerns regarding the global employability of Arabized graduates. The proposal argues that despite these initial challenges, the immense effort required is justified by the profound cultural and civilizational gains that the Arabic language and the Arab nation stand to achieve. Grounded in empirical data from leading language classification and publication databases (e.g., Ethnologue, Statista, Web of Science/Scopus), the study provides a comparative analysis of Arabic against other prominent global languages to illuminate current linguistic disparities in scientific output, speaker numbers, and overall usage. It critically examines recent pivotal initiatives, such as Grand Imam Ahmed Al-Tayeb's decision to Arabize medical curricula at Al-Azhar University, and analyzes the diverse reactions, advocating that a long-term vision for linguistic and national elevation must prevail over short-sighted objections. Ultimately, this research demonstrates the inevitable link between the elevation of the Arabic language and the advancement of the Arab nation through strategic Arabization efforts.
