Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I was in a foreign country. Was I? I was in a foreign country, and the preacher delivered two sermons, but each was in a different language: one in Arabic and the second in English, because some of the attendees do not know Arabic. Is this permissible?

Answer:
They need both sermons; the Arabs and the non-Arabs need both sermons. So he delivers them in Arabic and then translates them into the other language. Yes.
