There is an Arabic frequency list put together by Tim Buckwalter and  
can be found here:
http://www.qamus.org/wordlist.htm

There is "a frequency dictionary of Arabic" by Tim Buckwalter and  
Dilworth Parkinson, including the 5000 most commonly used words.
http://www.routledge.com/books/A-Frequency-Dictionary-of-Arabic-isbn9780415444347

If you have your own set of documents, you could use concordance  
software like aConcorde to get a frequency list.
There are also word list creators that could provide a frequency list  
for a given corpus. Some are listed here (see bottom of page):http://www.supershareware.com/info/word-list-expert.html

Hope these are helpful.
