assalm`alaikum, Jazakallah Khair for your effort - may allah bless you for it. http://www.sunniport.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=232 I have converted the file into a .pdf with some basic formatting and it really looks nice - will wait until you complete your work to release it - inshaallah. --abu Nibras
well, on a subsequent read, i found the translation bland and at times too literal. i am working on it to make it better, but you shouldn't expect anything less than mediocre. may Allah help us. wa's salam.
assalam`alaikum, Dear Br. abul Hasan, I have read your wonderful translation of the biography of Allama Ibn Abidin ash-Shami :ra: from the preface of Radd-al-Mukhtar, will you be kind enough to post it here. all of it -- to Allâh i complain, my misery and my need, intercessor of all: creation; intercede! [ashkû ilâ Allâhi mâ alqâhu min naSabin // mustashfi`an bi shafî`yil khalqi kullihimî] -- was salam -abu nibras
