I am looking to study in an institute in the Arab world to become Aalim and was wondering whether you can give me some mashwara about the best place to study.
Question
As salam mu alaikum Mufti saheb. I would like to learn arabic to a degree of understanding the quran clearly.
Answer
Respected Brother-in-Islam
Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu
Hasan Basri (RA) said, 'Verily, this knowledge is religion and be careful from who you seek your religion.'
In view of the above, we advise you exercise extreme precaution in choosing your place of study. The teachers should have Taqwa (piety) and strictly adhere to Shari'ah in their personal lives. Generally, students are a reflection of their teachers. We cannot comment on any institute in the Arab world as we have no knowledge on the quality of Imaan and Taqwa of their teachers. However, Arabic is also taught in non-Arab countries as well, for example, in Darul Ulooms in South Africa and England.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
