Arabic Maqam is the system of melodic modes used in traditional Arab music, which is mainly melodic. The Maqam word in Arabic means "station" and shows a kind of melody that was built on the scale and bring the tradition that defines the custom phrases, important notes, melodic development and modulation. Both compositions and improvisations in traditional Arabic music are based on the Maqams can be realized with either vocal or instrumental music, and not including rhythmic components.
Maqam System Maqam tone Although it would be wrong to call the capital system, the Arabic system is more complex than the Greek fashion. Basis of Arab music is the Maqam pl. (maqamat), who looked like fashion, but not exactly the same. The tonic note, the dominant notes, and endnotes (unless modulation occurs) is generally determined by the Maqam used.

Fasilahmaqams first is a grouping of four main pitches are shared similarity.
Habib Hassan Touma (1996, ) has announced that there were "five parts" that is characteristic of Arab music: • The Arab tone system , which is a musical tuning system that relies on a certain interval structure and created by al-Farabi in the 10th century (p. 170) • Temporal rhythm structures that produce a rich variety of rhythmic patterns, known as awzan or "heavy", which used to accompany the metered vocal and instrumental genres, for accents or to give them shape.
A number of musical instruments found in the entire Arab world that represent a standard system of tone , played with common techniques of performance standards, and show similar details in construction and design. • Particular social context that produces sub-categories of Arabic music, or music genre that can be broadly classified as urban (music of the city), (country music of rural population), or Bedouin (music of the desert dwellers)

Figures • Al-Kindi (801-873 AD) was the first great theoretician of Arabic music. He proposed adding the fifth string to the oud and discuss the cosmological connotations of music. He transcends the achievement of Greek musicians in using alphabetic explanation for one eighth. He published fifteen treatises of music theory , but only five survived. In one of his covenant, which musiqa word used for the first time in Arabic, which today means music in Arabic, Persian, Turkish, English and several other languages in the Islamic world. • Al-Farabi (872-950) wrote a famous book on music titled Kitab al-Kabir al-Musiqi (Great Books Music). His pure Arabian tone system is still used in Arabic music.
Al-Ghazali (1059 - 1111) wrote a treatise on the music of Persia , who declared, "Ecstasy means the state that comes from listening to music." • In 1252, Safi al-Din developed a unique form of musical notation , where the rhythm is represented by the geometric representation. A geometric representation of the same will not appear in the Western world until 1987, when Kjell Gustafson published methods to represent the rhythm as the two graphs dimensions.
