Madrasah Al-Arabiah Al-Islamiah is a full-time co-educational madrasah offering secondary school education in Singapore. Madrasah is an Arabic word that means "school" but in the present context a madrasah means an Islamic religious school.

Like the five other full-time madrasahs in Singapore (Aljunied Al-Islamiah, Alsagoff Al-Arabiah, Al-Arabiah Al-Islamiah, Al-Maarif Al-Islamiah and Madrasah Wak Tanjong Al-Islamiah),[1] Arabiah is a private school which offers students an education comprising both ukhrawi (Islamic religious) subjects such as Arabic and Revelation studies, as well as duniawi (secular) subjects like English, Mathematics and Science. Arabiah's students take both secular and ukhrawi national exams. Many of its graduates move on to further their studies in Islamic Universities overseas and return to become asatizahs (religious teachers), while others attend the local polytechnics and universities.[2] The school is currently operating at its campus at Lorong 6 Toa Payoh.[3]
