arabxetex is not the source of the problem, it only reveals that
mathspec is doing something silly. It redefines \RequirePackage so
that every \RequirePackage{amsmath} leads to an error:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{mathspec}
\RequirePackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
Test
\end{document}

This is cleary a fault in mathspec. Make a bug report.

To get around the problem, you can reset the original definition
after loading mathspec:

\usepackage{mathspec}
\makeatletter
\let\RequirePackage\original at RequirePackage
\makeatother
