Economic growth is a major goal of economic policy, and this goal depends on the availability of adequate financial and natural resources to produce the largest possible amount of goods and services. The research problem enables the high rates of inflation in some Arab countries, including Egypt, Tunisia and Jordan. The research aims to study the impact of inflation on economic growth in the mentioned Arab countries during the period 1990-2020, based on the hypothesis that inflation contributes to varying effects on the economic growth of the countries under discussion. The rate of economic growth in addition to the inflation rate variable, namely: the foreign exchange rate, the deficit in the state’s general budget, government support and loan values, and a standard model was applied in several formats based on time series data, the method of regular and weighted least squares, and the E-Veiws10 program, and a number of conclusions were reached. The most important of them was that the structural imbalance in the economies of the countries of the research sample is one of the most important reasons that led to the emergence of the problem of inflation and its repercussions on their economic growth
