Ahmad Riza Khan and their Ulema regard the Khutbah in a language other than Arabic to be contrary to the Sunnah and Makrooh. Here follows his Fatwa:
Q: Salaah-168: Is it correct to recite the Khutbah in Arabic together with the Urdu translation?
Answer: (1) Mixing another language with the Arabic language when delivering the Khutbah conflicts with the Sunnah.
(2) Another Fatwa states: "Answer: Both situations conflict with the Sunnah. Mixing (another language) with the Arabic results in forsaking a Sunnah Mutawaatirah.
A Fatwa of another of the leaders of the Berelwis Molvi Abul A'laa Amjad Ali states:
(3) ?Reciting the Khutbah in a language other than Arabic or mixing another language with the Arabic results in forsaking a Sunnah Mutawaatirah.
And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
