The significance of the Qur’an being revealed in Arabic is that Mecca is at the center of the earth. The language there is Arabic. So the Qur’an was revealed in Arabic, the central language, so that Arabic speakers could understand it first. And other speakers can understand the Qur’an through them.In this regard, Allah Ta’ala says, ‘It is a blessed book which I have sent down. It is a supporter of the previous heavenly books, so that you may warn the people of the center of the townships (Mecca) and its surroundings through it. Those who believe in the Hereafter, believe in it also, and they maintain their prayers perfectly.’ (Surah: An’am, verse: 92)
There are thousands of languages ​​in the world.
It was not difficult for Allah to send down the Qur’an in their respective languages, considering the country, time and nation.
 However, there are many reasons why the Qur’an was revealed in Arabic—
One. When the forefather Hazrat Adam (A.S.) was in Paradise, his language was Arabic, he used to speak Arabic in the world as well.
Two. From Adam (pbuh) to Muhammad (pbuh) all the Sahifas or books that were revealed to all the Prophets of the world were in Arabic. Considering the country, time and nation, Gabriel (A.S.) translated it to every prophet and revealed it in their language. That is, the original language of all Asmani books was Arabic. (Al-Itqan fi Ulumil Qur’an)
Three. In a hadith narrated by a weak source, the language of Paradise will be Arabic.
Four. One of the characteristics of the Arabic language is that there are many ways to express feelings in this language.
Five. By nature, Allah Ta’ala has associated all people with the Arabic language. As a result, everyone can easily learn the language according to their needs. Therefore, whenever the Sahaba went to a new region with the invitation of Islam, the people there also mastered the language along with accepting Islam. As a result, beyond the borders of Mecca and Medina, Arabic became the national language of various countries including Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Sudan, Mauritania, Egypt, Iraq. But none of these had Arabic as their national language. Because of these features, Arabic was chosen as the language of the Qur’an.
The Holy Qur’an and Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) have been revealed for the time till Qiyaamat. In this case a language is selected. Had the Qur’an been revealed in multiple languages, the misinterpretation and confusion of the Qur’an would have increased. He used the Qur’an as he pleased.
As the Qur’an was revealed in only one language, that path was blocked. Therefore the foundation of greater unity has been established as the Qur’an was revealed in one language. (Tafseer Ma’areful Qur’an)
