I havent seeen ANY post on this forum saying READING QURAN WITH TRANSLATION IS BAD FOR UR HEALTH OR RELIGION.
Obviously you have to know what you r reading ...... Its important but that doesnt mean reading Quran without translation is biddat. The Qirat itself has its own charm.
Conclusion: its better to read Quran with Traslation..... But In Ramzan or Quran Khawani's you can just do Tilawat-e-kalam-Pak .... This doesnt hurt anyone :)
Just something on the side : I find it much more spiritual when I repeat Trasnlation of Namaz in my mind while i am offering my prayers..... so NO AM NOT AGAINST knowing translation of what you are reading. And can someone plz tell our Muslim brothers the meaning of "LA IKRAHA FID DEEN". I am reffering to the onez that r forcing ppl to keep beared and have the "Islamic topi" on.
You have somewhat balanced position. Good. But please read below my response as well. :-)
