Abstract
Cultural intelligence as one of the types of intelligence is based on a deep understanding of human cultural values, beliefs and behaviors and has three main components of metacognitive, cognitive, motivational, and behavioral. This type of intelligence is reinforced in linguistic communication between different languages. The learning process of the "Arabic language of the Qur'an" is mainly formed under the guidance of the teachers and leads to the desired results when students are in a dynamic, interactive and meaningful environment, In the first and second high school curriculum, Arabic teachers play a very effective role in teaching and learning and if they have a high level of cultural intelligence, they will be able to provide good opportunities for practicing and enhancing students' language skills. This study examines the amount of cultural intelligence of the Arabic teachers and its impact on success in teaching. The statistical population of the study consisted of the first and second high school teachers in Qom who responded to the designed questionnaire. The sampling method is targeted and based on specific criteria. According to the results of the study, the level of cultural intelligence of Arabic teachers is significantly above the average, which has a positive effect on the quality of second or foreign language teaching. In addition, the teachers have reinforced their knowledge and language skills using the media content of the Arab world, the study of the works of Arab -speaking scholars and the use of religious cultural commonalities. These measures generally enhance their educational capabilities and provide more opportunities for meaningful learning.
