The Modern Arab Association (Arabic: المؤسسة العربية الحديثة, Al-Muʾassasa al-ʿArabiyya al-Ḥadītha; The Modern Arabic Institute) is an Egyptian publishing house.
Established by Hamdi Mustafa in 1960, it published reference and revision school books for Egyptian school children, including the Silāḥ al-Tilmīdh (The Student's Weapon) series.
