Masha-allah, I notice in England there are a lot of English speaking scholars amidst non-english speaking audience.

My question is how many of the scholars manage to give English talks while there are elder chachas that speak bengali or urdu. Because in US the masjids where its predominately Bengali or Urdu we hardly get English talks. Unless masha-Allah UK elders are more open minded..

please advise

Brother its the same in the UK

Most the talks are in the language of the minorities that the mosque represents.

But as the generations are getting more entrenched, and younger, this is changing and English is more common.

Why dont you go to other mosques ? go to a few others in your neighbourhood, and arrange some talks yourself in English. Or get a brother to volunteer to translate the talks into English for a group of you, without interrupting the main speaker of course, for the benefit of English speakers
