The Maldivian Arabic is a way to write Maldivian (Dhivehi) with the Arabic script devised by Mohamed Naaif from the Maldives, who made it for the people seeking to learn Arabic through Dhivehi. The Arabic language was a part of the Maldives until the mid 1900s, and he developed this script to revive the religious tradition of the Maldives, and to help people to learn Arabic faster.

Salafīnge manhajakī kīrithi Qurān ah Thamassaku vumāi, isvedhiya salaf aṣ ṣāliḥunge fahm'ah Nabiyyāge Sunnathah Thabaʿ vumeve. Adhi bidhuʿa veri ʿamal thakā Hawā Nafsuge Ahuluveringe ʿamal thakā dhuruvegathumeve. Yaqīnan, Khairāt vanī Salafunnah Thabaʿ vumugaeve. Sumpā kan vanī Bāṭil ah Thabaʿ vumugaeve.
The methodology of the Salafīs are to adhere to the Qur’an and the Sunnah upon the understanding of the Salaf aṣ ṣāliḥīn, abandoning innovations and people of desires, for good lies in following and evil lies in innovating.
