Is it haram to transliterate Arabic in English?

Question

I have been told that it is haram to write Arabic in English like e.g. *"Assalam O Alaikum"* and *"JazakALLAH"*.So is transliterating Arabic in English actually haram?

Answer 1

The haram things that Muslims shouldn’t do are all in one Aya. That thing is not one of them for sure!

Answer 2

Arabic is a beautiful language and nothing in it says that it is haram to transliterated into any other language.

Answer 3

It is not haram at all to transliterate Arabic into English. Any thing that make learning easier will be greatly appreciated!

I hope this helps!

Answer 4

Ofcourse it is not "haram" to transliterate Arabic.

Answer 5

It's not haram, but the transliteration may sometimes miss a vowel in the Arabic original phrase, which may change the meaning. It's something to look out for, but isn't against the Islamic faith to do. Even more careful consideration must be taken if the Qur'an were to be transliterated for example - without caution, one might accidentally change the words of the Holy Book.
