I don't understand why the two have to compete. I''m currently studying Arabic right now, and I'd love to learn Urdu and Farsi afterwards, because many great books are in those languages.

Was it not Shaikh Abdul Fattah Abu Ghuddah

who lamented at the amount of knowledge that was locked away in Urdu books?
The same could be said about Farsi. Shah Waliullah

, just to give an example, wrote something like half his books in Farsi.
