A book written by Ahmed Huseein Sheriff. This is what the FORWARD says:
The Arabic language-in terms of the number of speakers and extent of its influence-is by far the most important language today.

It is spoken today by over 110 million people in a number of countries. In particular its significance lies in the fact that it is the language of the Qur'an, the Holy Book of God, read and revered by Muslims all over the world.

Arabic is a language of vigour, conciseness and precision: Arabic is fond of brevity, which is regarded by Arab rhetoricians as the real criterion of eloquence. Thanks to its inherent virtues as well as the fact that it is the language of Islam, Arabic has not only survived the vicissitudes of 14 centuries, but has progressed and developed to the highest possible degree.

In the few pages of this booklet, he has tried to explain the significance of Arabic language being used in the daily Muslim Prayers.

Some observations and points have been quoted from Persian translation of an article of Professor Hamidullah Khan.

The booklet is not a very big or thick one and so I can write what he has written in this booklet about the reason why we pray in Arabic but only on the condition that I get the feedback from you all first whether you are interested in knowing the reason.
