Learning the English Language

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And another says: What is the ruling on learning the English language?

Answer:
If he has a need for it, if he is learning it to get a job to seek sustenance, or to refute the wrongdoers, or to translate useful books, if it is for a legitimate religious benefit or a worldly benefit, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
