Duolingo is a very popular language learning app, and many brothers and sisters use it to learn Arabic while being unaware of the hidden messages that are found within this app.
The idea of this video was inspired by an article by sister Mariam Ahmad, who first published her article on 28th May 2023 on Al-sabeel.net network on this topic bit.ly/3Z2AdKx . I conducted more research to confirm the information and acquire more sources so that others can be careful when using this application.
Most of the information + pictures used in this video were taken from the official website of Duolingo, their social media accounts (Twitter, facebook) and their fandom page.
PLEASE share the video as much as you can to spread the word and share the ajer in shaa Allah ...

Because French duolingo has characters that speak and have personalities, they aren’t just dubbed by one robot.

I don't use duolingo bec it's based mostly on English and whenever I miss "a", "the" or "an" in my translation it tells me that I should start all over again. Gee, am I learning English or Swahili? I don't care so much about English, my native language is Polish so I tried also to translate sentences from Swahili to Polish and the system of Duolingo isn't really prepared for that. So I gave up. I found other ways to study Swahili. Maybe that system is good whenever anybody out there wants to learn English.

When I clicked on this video, I did not expect you were going to criticise Duolingo based on it's non-halal content - I thought you were going to tell us that Duolingo is bad for learning arabic specifically because they do not teach arabic grammar and case endings correctly. I think it good for learning arabic characters and basic arabic words, but to become fluent in arabic or to know conversational arabic I think it is useless. I would dare say that most people using this app to learn arabic are non-muslims who are going to go and work in an arabic speaking country and want a basic understanding of the language (although note it does NOT teach commonly-used phrases - more often "weird" sentences like the ones you showed). So for them, having non-halal content wouldn't be a problem. Also having spent several months looking through the arabic course on Duolingo, I didn't see any of those exact strange sentences that you pointed out in this video. Different language courses use different sentence examples - I thought the arabic sentences they gave are actually not problematic. Quite early in the arabic course you learn to write "alhamdulillah" for instance. Just my take on it. But I would appreciate if you could make a follow-up video to this one breaking down why Duolingo's arabic course is technically bad from the perspective of learning the language, as well.

I've noticed these weird sentences while I didn't really think about them at first because I wasn't raised to be a Muslim I found my way to the Islamic religion a year ago. And also I don't usually judge what others do if they know it bad or not healthy, and its not harming me or anyone else I pay it no mind. Although there were some sentences that were really odd, I just thought they were ai generated. Well now i am more aware. I've been using a mixture of dualingo to remember the letters and lingq so I can learn the words sentence structure. If anyone has other resources to use for learning arabic, then let me know.

I think your concerns for children is good to have. But for my personal experience as an adult user. I have been studying duolingo regularly for over a year in the app, and I completed a big part of their courses, I only encountered weird sentence once. (It was about a man wearing a skirt). So as an adult user who has difficulty to start learning Arabic I think duolingo helped me a lot. But for childrens i agree that it's probably not a good app.

Tbh, duolingo is almost useless for actually learning a language and speaking with natives. For one, you barely learn any grammar, you barely memorize vocabulary, and it won't help you out long term. There are alternatives, but they are a piece of the puzzle of learning a language, you shouldn't rely on one app for everything (reading, writing, hearing, speaking). I recommend you search up online resources for learning Arabic, and use them.

Or book like Baina yadaik and also UKposts ... Also I hate the energy thing to do exercise in Duolingo if you do 5 times mistakes you can't continue it. You have to purchase the premium.

Duolingo was never a good language learning tool not just for Arabic, but for other languages as well, such as Japanese and Korean. Besides the weird examples no one would use in real life, it sometimes teach you the wrong way of pronouncing words (this is the case with Japanese words with kanji). It also doesn’t understand the nuances in the language and will often say a native speaker in said language is “wrong”. I’ve never used it and probably never will.

Didn't expect someone from TWOW to be commenting on here, but to answer your question in a purely secular way, I don't really think you should be learning Arabic on Duolingo. Duolingo teaches very conversational Modern Standard Arabic (which is pretty much useless because you would only speak MSA in formal situations) while throwing in some grammar from other Arabic dialects, so the Arabic that you would learn is going to be limited to some rare scenarios. In my opinion, learning a language that uses the Latin alphabet (or even Cyrillic alphabet) on Duolingo is better than learning a language that uses a VERY different script to English.

In the beginning of using Duolingo I faced some LGBT promotional sentences, I immediately made a complain on the application review, I mentioned that almost all Arabic learners are practicing muslim and we are not tolerate such LGBT promo sentences, less than a week they changed it & eliminated such sentences & tgey even added sentences like In Sha Allah, Alhamdullilah, so kind advise to all the Muslims to not ignore but to make a complain when they meet such actions

Being an Arabic speaker and being a Muslim are two different things. An Arabic speaker can be Christian, atheist, etc. the language is independent of religion, nationality, culture, etc. There is no strong / acceptable evidence that any religion is true, including Islam; religions are pure BELIEFS and nothing more than that; there may be people who claim to have experienced apparitions, dreams, etc. but they are only subjective experiences that can even be explained in ways that don't involve any religion. Also, the "evidences" that many religious people claim can be explained without involving any religion. So, you cannot impose a religion (belief) over science (reality / logical reasoning). I don't mean to be disrespectful to Muslims or other religious people, but we must accept this irrefutable fact. It makes sense that Duolingo reflects how the world works in real life, whether it is “correct” or not. The world is how it is, not how we want it to be. On the other hand, each person has different tastes when it comes to music, food, hobbies, movies, etc., and ѕех is no exception. Why would it be? It is important to note that NO ONE CHOOSES THEIR PREFERENCE, it is not anyone's fault to be attracted to men or women, it's just how one is, and I believe that any wise god would understand that, right? A person cannot change their preference at will, so it doesn't make sense to condemn them in any religion (and things like these only discredit religions even more). The application is educational, and education is not limited to languages; there are also aspects related to diversity (religious, ethnic, sexual, etc.), and it is logical for them to emphasize aspects that are less addressed in traditional education; in other words, what they do complements the educational process of users, normalizing respect and inclusion of any person regardless of their race, religion, culture, sexuality, etc. it is evident that this is something positive because no one chooses their race, sexuality (and many times not even their religion or culture), so it is not right to discriminate against people for things that are beyond their control. Many things are done in the name of religions, but from the perspective of logical reasoning (not religious), they are unethical; and as I said before, a religion is a belief, not a science (and we can only trust in science), and by “science” I mean “the pursuit of truth” (whatever that truth is).

I've been using the app for 536 days straight and I am a Muslim. What I want to say is that this entire video from start to finish is just BS. Not only have I never encountered any of these phrases likely because Duolingo is constantly updating their app for the better, but also because this app is doing a huge favour to those who can't afford a decent language education. And this exactly is why I avoid these kinds of toxic propaganda arabic creators even though I am a fully committed muslim who certainly doesn't endorse any of the "bad things" in the video. But what I believe is that a bunch of cartoony characters existing to make learning more fun are NOTHING in the face of getting educated. This video didn't teach me anything and will get a dislike.

ON DUOLINGO NO GRAMMAR, so what's the point for you to waste time there? duo is okay for several lessons for get into language and learn characters and some constructions - after that in my opinion u should leave it and find more valuable sources for learning language there is no problem on me, if you will look to course structure and overall words which they covers - all of them are extremely unsignificant and you will not get something major from it. Duolingo is best place for learn characters only imho, nothing more than it

Jazakallahu Khairan for the warning akhi, Duolingo does contain many objectionable sentences and I do believe many of them are not AI-generated but made by contributors. Anyway, I use the app because I find that the benefit to me specifically outweighs the harms - I have found effective ways of using it for language learning and am not affected by its objectionable material. Also, learning how to recognize certain objectionable material in the language you are learning has some of its own value - you will be able to be aware of what is being said if it is unIslamic.

I thank you for the aid you have given me before, but I see no point in judging them. In their core they are trying to be inclusive and teach someone a language. A simple tool like this is not and never will be impactful enough to change the values we teach our kids. Unless there already is doubt in them. But if there already is doubt in them, then this would just add something minor to that. We, as adults, as parents, uncles, aunt's, neighbors, need to give the right example to the next generation on what the right values are. And we should put ourselves above small things like this. For in the end, the judgement is for none but Allah.

Im going to be as respectful as possible here, and yes i agree that duolingo is pushing this "agenda" deliberately, however i do not see the issue with it. First of all the weird sentences are a learning tactic since you remember a strange sentence more than a boring one. Duolingo knows this and that's why they have so many weird sentences. Second Duolingo showcases not mainly the cultural but the everyday side of things mostly, and lgbt people exist everywhere so it is a big part of daily life for a lot of people. Duolingo knows its pushing a new age agenda and its doing it for the sake of publicity of course, but also to better the life of others and promote acceptance, and to educate people like you about how other people not in your country, not living by your rules and ethicises live. Duolingo isn't "going against Muslim tradition" it is just showcasing all sides/people of the world, there is just as much arabic/muslim/asian/hebrew/african/etc representation as lgbt, if anything duolingo is very centered in terms of politics, choosing to shows all sides instead of censoring everything.

People using duolingo are trying to learn a language not a religion or belief system. Duolingo is also based in The United States of America so they will not show suppression of women in anyway nor should they need too as it does not claim to be teaching religious beliefs. The people that contribute to the app are most likely citizens of the USA so they may not have the more traditional belief system still practiced in other countries. I doubt it was meant to be offensive. After the learner gets a grasp on the language they can and probably will learn about the culture behind it through the appropriate resources. Duolingo is a resource for people that cannot justify spending money to learn a new language or maybe they simply cannot afford it. Though it has it's flaws, several in fact, duolingo is hardly corrupting the minds of young people in my opinion.

If you google "weird duolingo sentences" you will get what you asked for. Weird sentences. but infact only a small portion of actual practice is strange. Also, just because something is seen as "against values" of any sort doesn't mean you shouldn't know how to say it at all! It is not weird to say that someone is gay or that someone is non-binary, or to have a male character do chores or a female character ride a motorcycle. Saying it is pushing bad values upon children is to push your bad values onto others.

I truly believe that some of these sentences in Duolingo are meant to be funny. It is meant to capture attention and teach you words.

Thanks for the app review. I also am hesitant to use the app because how my voice data and contacts upload might be stored, used, or shared. Do you find any weaknesses in their privacy policy?

All the examples you point out are NOT in arabic, and those which are (like الطبيعة امنا) are really not that awful. Considering the fact that Arabic as a language isn't unique to Islam, but a language that also many christians and even non believers speak, and that most of the people who use Duolingo aren't even muslim but just want to learn a new language, it is pretty fine from this perspective.

I haven't run into those more disturbing sentences myself, but I do get what you mean. They do have some unusual ones like Il serpente mangia la torta (The snake eats the cake), although the unusuality of these seems to be a tool they use to help you remember. Not being Muslim, I can't vouch for the nature of the 2 middle-eastern characters they sport (how they look, etc.), but I will say that if they are going to depict culturally-inspired characters, that they need to be respective per that culture. I have noticed in the German lessons that they do give examples of same-sex marriage and such, saying things like "His husband", etc. Reading the guides behind the lessons, they mention that such relationships are semi-common in Germany, and I don't know if that is even true or not or if it's to buffer the modern western agenda, but it seems to be the idea behind that, because I haven't noticed such sentences in the other languages I've been working on in there. I will say the Italian talks a LOT about food, and it is a large part of their culture and somewhat understandable, but perhaps a little heavily stereotypical. As a Christian, I agree we need to be watchful of these things, especially where kids and teens are involved, because there is already so many influences in today's society that can be damaging.

May Allah help you so much, so much and so much that you can never imagine. You spend so much time creating video about everything, Arabic, Tajweed, Islam even have a website for tajweed courses. I have not seen a single other youtube channel explain these type of things in this type of way. May Allah grant you jannatul firdaus first then grant us after.
