Abstract EN

Dealing with a foreign language requires dealing with its speakers, institutions, countries and concepts.

Thus translation places the translator in situations which necessitate religious knowledge that protects him from committing mistakes or sins.

This paper aims at investigating some of these situations and their applicable juridical rules.

For instance, the paper tackles cases in which a source text may include expressions of blasphemy, cursing, or atheism; where a translator works with bodies whose demands may contradict with the interests of Islam or Muslims; or works with the occupants of one's country.

The paper also investigates the rights of the source text producer and translator.

The Friday sermon for non-native speakers of Arabic is also tackled in this paper.

The paper concludes that some translations are lawful and others are unlawful, whereas it is possible to modify others.

The paper states the viewpoints of Islamic jurors about money earned from translation, the rights of the source text producer and translator and how to get rid of the money earned by unlawful means.
