Since we are keeping the Arabic books together and the Spanish books together, we can look at each group as a single block.

As such, there are 5 objects on the bookshelf: three German books, one collection of Arabic books, and one collection of Spanish books. There are $5!$ ways to order the $5$ objects. As we already have the books together, there are $2!$ ways of ordering the Arabic books and $4!$ ways of ordering the Spanish books. Therefore, the total ways to order the books is $$\begin{align*}5! \cdot 4! \cdot 2! &= 120 \cdot 24 \cdot 2 \\&= 5760 \end{align*}$$

Thus, the correct answer is C.
