  Most important is that you have Arabic selected in your site’s language under Dashboard>Settings>General>Language. If you make any changes, make sure to hit the “Save Changes” button.

  Here’s a filtered list of both premium and free themes that support RTL but be aware that some may do so more than others https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/rtl-language-support/

  If you find features that don’t seem to be RTL supported in the theme you choose, please post directly to the Themes forum https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/themes#postform and tag your thread for Staff attention by adding the MODLOOK tag as well as the name of your chosen theme.

  If you find strings in your chosen theme that haven’t been translated to Arabic, you can help out by translating them. More info about GlotPress here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/glotpress/

  Let us know if you need more help with any of that.

  Just to add to what @justjennifer said:

  Twenty Fifteen theme is about 98% translated to Arabic. You can set it to Arabic using the method described above.
