Arabic Natural Language Processing (ANLP) has a great attention as a new research topic in the last few years. In this paper an ANLP laboratory has been created to serve the Islamic Sciences, especially the science of Hadith. The main tasks of this laboratory are creating and using the necessary linguistic resources (Corpora, Lexicon, etc) in developing or adapting the basic tools (Parser, POS-tagger, etc), developing Arabic Natural Language Processing system's evaluation framework and defining research areas and services for universities. The laboratory can also adapt the important theories, resources, tools and applications of other natural language processing such as English and French.
