Arabic has a few sounds that don’t exist in English — like the guttural “ع” (represented here as ‘a or ‘) and the emphatic “ح” (written as ḥ, pronounced like a breathy “h” from deep in the throat). Don’t worry about perfecting these right away; approximate pronunciations will still get you understood.
