To learn the non provincial and others languages In Islam,
मुफ्ती अहमद देवला
In Islam the languages are not unrelated and non provincial. All of languages have been created by Almighty Allah. As the Holy Quran States :
Aनद of His signs are the creation of the heavens and the earth, the difference of your languages colors.
The different types of languages are spoken in the different provinces and countries. Like Arabic, Persian, Turkey, Hindi, Gujarati etc. It is not only but the style and the method of speaking languages are also different. These all are the signs of Allah Almighty's strength.(Maariful Quran written by Mufti Shafi Sa. (R.A.) Part: 6 Page: 46, Chapter: 21)(Maariful Quran written by Maulana Idris Kandhalvi Sa. (R.A.) Part: 6 Page : 144)
Mufakkir-e-Islam Hazrat Maulana Abul Hasan Nadvi (R.A.) has stated in his own speech that no languages are considered non-provincial and unrelated Islam. All languages are created by Allah. The prejudice against the language is ignorance. No language is able to worship and disgusted. Indeed! If any language is the greatest and has high rank, it is only Arabic. All other languages are generally equal.
The holy prophet (S.A.W.) ordered hazarat Ziad bin Sabit (R.A.) to learn the Hebrew language which was only Jews' language. If we don't care about the languages and its literature, The non-islamic countries will engage his monopoly and than we will have to suffer great loss. (Khutbat-e- Ali miyan Part: 6 Page: 109)
Non-provincial languages and the well known Indian scholars:In near past, there was great Qadhee (justice) at Chiryacot in 12th century Hijri. It is mentioned in "Tazkira-e-Ulma-e-Hind" about him that : " Having gotten the current education, he felt a desire to learn Sanskrit language. So he learnt it deeply and got high position in Banaras city which is the place of great skilful scholar of Sanskrit. (Tazkira-e-Ulma-e-Hind Urdu : page 253) (Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 57)
Maulana Munazir Ahsan Gilani (R.A.) says that he listened the intresting story from Maulana Hafiz Muhammad Ahmed Sa. (The former principal of Darul Uloom Deoband) "When my father (Hujjatul Islam Mualana Muhammad Qasim Nanotwi R.A.) was going in his last hajj. Looking his lovable behavior the captain who was Italian asked that who he is." A hajee who know English gave the introduction about Maulana Qasim (R.A.). So he wished to meet him and Maulana met him sincerely. The captain took the permission to talk about the religious matter and Maulana granted him. A hajee who know English well was translator between them. The captain was wonder struck, and looks that he will declare his acceptance of Islam, when he listened religious thought of Hazarat Maulana Qasim Sa. At that time Maulana (R.A.) was very impressed and intended to learn English language just when he will come back, but fixed moment of the death came and he couldn't complete his intention. (Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 59)
It is mentioned in Tazkira-e-Ulma-e-Hind about Maulana Inayat -r asul Chiryacoti (R.A.) that he went to Calcutta for learning Hebrew language. And stayed there many years and learnt it from Hebrew Scholars until he became skill in Hebrew.(Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 57)
Allama Tafajjul Husain Khan has learnt English and Roomy language which is called Latin. (Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 57)
Hazarat Maulana Nasiruddin sa. (the father of Maulana Nusrat Ali Dehlvi) used to do controversy. Therefore he was famous by the name Imam-e-Munazara (the chief of controversy). When he would do controversy to Jews he would recite the commentary of Pentateuch and Testament in Hebrew language. (Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 57)
This tradition is included in the Malfuzat of Hazrat Maulana Shah A.Aziz R.A in his own tongue that the well known Hebrew scholar came in Delhi in his time. Shah Sa. states that he enquired about Pentateuch in Hebrew language. This says that he learnt Hebrew language to him directly. It is also mentioned in Malfuzat that he recited some verses of Pentateuch and translate them. (Hindustan main Muslamano ka Nizam-e- Talim -w- Tarbiyat : Page : 57)
Darul Uloom Deoband as a centre of All Asian religious Madaris has passed the rule to learn English language.
It is come to know by above mentioned matters that Islam does not consider non-provincial and unrelated. A man can learn any languages either it is English or Sanskrit, for the holy purpose of the protection of Islam and Muslim from the misguiding of Anti Islam power and astray parties, similarly, for the printing and publishing Islamic literatures. And it is necessary that we should not accept the civilization and culture of Anti Islamic related that language. Regarding to learn language, If any chapter is opposite according to Islamic thought, it should be learnt and taught as the learning.There is a misunderstanding shown in India that (Unani) Grecian Medicine is tradition of Muslim and Ayurvadic Medicine is a Hindus' tradition. Nowadays, the government has going to establish the centre of Vedas in the different parts of country. In regarding it the learning of Sanskrit language is necessary.
Mufti Ahmed Devalvi Sb.
