Question:
He says: If a student of knowledge wants to translate some of a scholar's books into another language, is it obligatory for the student to seek this scholar's permission?
Answer:
It is necessary that if you want to translate a person's book, you seek his permission for it, because the meaning might change and some things might be altered. Therefore, this scholar must supervise the translation of his book, either by himself or by delegating it to a translation specialist who will review it.
