is it ok to write some questions in enlgish (which include only current issues, no typical vocabulary) and some in urdu (which may include typical vocabulary)?

and also can we write in both of the languages in one questions (write question in english but some lines of urdu to explain something clearly)?

please suggest

well i havent come across any such precedence (writing in both modes of expression) but as per all the logics of the world, this is strictly prohibited. if it were not the case, i would have attempted it in Pushto even...

kher on a serious note, it's neither possible nor recommended. you should never write urdu to explain your answer that was initiated in English. infact, the whole paper needs to be solved either in English or Urdu. If you are choosing English as your mode of expression, stick to it and use English to pen down your thoughts.

thnaks dear.

there is typical vocabulary for islamic studies like Zakat, Qayas (Analogy), Ijtehad etc.

some of these terms may have substitute in english however being a pakistani student, socialized with these words, can we use these words as following.

"Qiyas is a distinguaishable feature in islamic constitution making which has its roots in Ijtehad"

in this statement I used Qiyas (Analogy) and Ijtihad. both of them can have substitute in english but if I come across some terms, for which I donot know english, can I use the terms I used in above sentence?

secondly, can I quote muslim scholars, like Modoodi, Allama Iqbal and Shah Wali Ullah etc (whose main work is in urdu), in urdu?

Thirdly, Can I define the topic in urdu? Exact definition only?

well brother ...first thing, Zakat, Qiyas, Som, Salat can be used in the paper. Secondly in my own paper, i always used words like Ummah, Amal, Emaan etc because they have proper definitions in Islamic thought and teachings. *Remember never to replace Allah with God* Thirdly if you are attempting the Islamiat paper there is a question in English and then the same question is repeated in Urdu. So if you are opting in English and you do not know what Analogy is, you should take help from the Urdu Question to understand what you are supposed to write about.

No you cannot write their materials in urdu unless you are attempting the paper in urdu. likewise if you are attempting the paper in urdu, then you can't quote english authors.

You can define the topic only in the medium which you want to use to solve the paper. If you choose Urdu, you have to solve all the questions, and the materials inside those questions in Urdu. If you solved the first question in English then you need to solve all the questions in English. One should develop enough grip to enable himself/herself to express his/her thoughts in English (if he chooses English).


One more thing. when you are in the paper and you choose to answer the paper in Urdu. you would still write the paper as if you are writing english. I.e Start from the first page and then 2nd and then onwards (left to right in other words). dont expect to see an Urdu paper arrangement where you will have the first page on the right hand side, then the second page to its left. I hope you got that...!!

thanks for kind help.

infact the problem I am facing, is only my expression in urdu. My writing speed is not bad, I think more or like same as english but I have tried a question and tried to write the answer in english, i could not write even introduction; when i write a sentence or two I got stuck what to write ahead. Whereas in english, I can introduce the topic better: a point goes for english

on the other hand, I could have difficulty in translating the terms in english: a point against english

and for definitions, ayat translations I was told by a teacher that we can quote in urdu as the english translation of ayat are much more difficult rather like germa .

So to solve both of the problems I was thinking to attempt paper in english and define and quote ayats in urdu. But now what to do.............will have to see.........but I Cant express in urdu, don't know why. I cant find the proper words while attempting in urdu
