for both your replies.

Let's just keep the thread going as a mashura and try to assist eachother in how to go about this.

I agree that the Arabic translator who did the work from Ml Ilyas RA's malfoozaat would be ideal.
Is he reachable?

As regards the English translation; glad to see that you have attempted to contact Mufti Afzal.

English in my opinion is easier to organize. If the would be translators have too many tasks at hand, which is understandable, then we need to find an alternative way that would not require to wait until they are available. The intent is to benefit everyone. Some of the young brilliant 'ulama in the UK can volunteer to start the work. I'm sure there is someone out there. They should be given targheeb for it, and they should be given confidence that their contribution is valuable.

I will attempt to find someone in South Africa in shaa Allah. Maybe someone here can assist with someone in the UK.

Reviewing will be a lighter task than doing all the work alltogether; the proven capable translators can be contacted at that point.




For starters, I'd suggest Dr. Abu_Tamim for the Urdu translation with review by Maulana Abu Bilal. For Arabic you might want to tap into some tullaab in South African Madaaris. Because of their zeal and talab to learn, they eat and drink books for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They might be able to translate into Arabic and maybe even to English as well.

Unfortunately, I don't know of Ulamaa in UK that might be able to translate.
