Hello,
I'll help you in anyway i can. there are free resources out there, which is the internet
www.byki.com, this is a free software for arabic that you can try out for free, which gives you a starting point in Arabic.
Pimsleur recorded books and rosetta stone are also good stuff as well, it is like recorded conversations that help you very well, you just listen to it on your cd player or an mp3 player or an ipod.
If you want to buy a book i'll recommend these,
1.Colloquial Arabic
2.Teach yourself Arabic
3.Arabic for dummies
4.Mastering Arabic
5.Mastering Arabic Grammar
6.Arabic in 10 Minutes a day
For Persian
1.Teach yourself modern Persian
2.Persian made nice and easy
3.Colloquial Persian
That's all i can think of right now
Good luck, and also remember to check with your local library for the books because that will save you buying them
i really mean it good luck and God bless

Good luck they are level 8 languages try going to the book store in your area and getting CD's and book. Then find a person who can actually speak the language. Some collages and universities actually teach Arabic

Considering that you speak pashto/urdu/english...you must be a pakistani pushton...I have a friend who is a pakistani pushton...he is very damn proud of his heritage... Pashto is not an afghani language according to him as it widely spoken in pakistan too...well at least in the nothern province...he said afghani and pakistani pushtoons are very very different and often hate each other....would you know why???...let me know
