Is it permissible to provide simultaneous translation of the Friday sermon in an adjacent room for worshippers who do not speak Arabic, alongside the Imam, knowing that "whoever babbles, has no Jumu'ah (Friday prayer)," and would this act contribute to a reluctance to learn the Arabic language?

The fundamental principle is the obligation to listen attentively to the sermon on Friday. Whoever speaks while the Imam is delivering the sermon has engaged in idle talk. We do not see a necessity for translation during the sermon, as translation is possible afterwards. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) conquered cities and delivered their sermons in Arabic despite the non-Arabicity of their inhabitants, and there is no report of them using a translator during the sermon, which indicates that it is an innovated practice. We urge the education of Muslim children in the Arabic language, especially the children of Arabs, because it is the language of the Quran, and through it, the Sacred Law can be understood. This is a fundamental solution to the issue of translation.
