AUN Posted March 3, 2003 I think that Allah has blessed us with one of the most beautiful languages on earth. I mean when you look at our oral heritage and extensive poetry why do we need to have another language as our national. However, we have to also keep in mind that the world is getting smaller they after they and if we need to compete we have to learn some other languages. I believe that Englisha nd Arabic are both important since English has become the language of the "world" and Arabis is somehow important whether its religous also the Gulf Arab state have become our important trade partners though that relationshsip is not equal. Also some other languages such Swahili and Spanish have influence in the world and is spoken by millions of people. Coming back to the question of choosing which language we choose to learn as a second I belive we should the individuals the right to chose whether they should learn another language and what that should be wasalam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
