ISLAMIC TERMS
C
The list of Islamic terms in Arabic that start with the letter "C" is actually very limited because Arabic does not have the letter "C" in its alphabet. Terms that are often translated or romanized using the letter "C" usually come from words with the letters "س" (S) or "ك" (K) in Arabic.
