This book examines two English translations of Mishkat ul-Masabih
by Al-Tabrizi and reflects on some of the key issues relating to
Hadith translation. The highly instructional nature of the
Prophetic Hadith means that the comprehensibility of any
translation is of great importance to a non-Arabic speaking Muslim,
and there is a need to analyze available translations to determine
whether these texts can function properly in the target culture.
The volume considers the relevance of skopos theory, the concept of
loyalty, and the strategies of the translators in question. There
are also chapters that focus on the translation of Islamic legal
terms and metaphors related to women, formulaic expressions, and
reported non-verbal behavior in Fazlul Karim's (1938) and Robson's
(1960) versions of the text.
