Places to learn Classical Arabic (Quranic Arabic)?

[amuslim]

Praise be to God.

I am writing to ask if anyone knows any places (internet) where I could study classical arabic so I could read parts of the Quran on my own? I have learned how to read and write Arabic (can't understand though) on my own but that was a long time ago and I take it that the writing looks different and perhaps isn't pronounced the same.

I would also like a place that has sound clips so I could pronounce them correctly as well.

Thank you and peace be upon you all.

Peace Wakas,

Thank you for those links. Some of the links within those links are dead, and the last link is dead (at least for me) as well, but I will still look through the available ones, thank you.

I have another question if you don't mind me asking. I have found Arabic Calligraphy very beautiful. Since I taught myself (through books) how to read Arabic in the past, I have never actually been taught how to read calligraphy, such as the Bismallah. Is there an easy way to learning this, or do I just need to familiarize myself more with the regular script first?

Peace

peace,

both links work for me.

As for the caligraphy, I am sure someone somewhere has a book about it or teaches it, but I dont know of any, try google.
