The questioner : Regarding his statement in the hadith: The Companions were Arabs, and yet he addressed them in a non-Arabic language. Does this imply the permissibility of speaking in a non-Arabic language?
The Shaykh : I believe we mentioned this previously. We said that using one or two words from a non-Arabic language is permissible, provided that the meaning is clarified, just as the Companions asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). However, adopting a non-Arabic language as the language of address is what is forbidden.
