Shiek Abdulazis Guroalim Saromantang
Shiek Abdulazis Guroalim Saromantang is a Maranao, an Ulama, and a specialist in Arabic sayings in the Qur’an. He was the first Filipino Muslim who translated Qur’an into Maranao language.[1][2] He was a former mayor of Tugaya, Lanao del Sur.[3]
Qur'an translation in Maranao Language[edit]
Ustadz Muhammad Sulaiman, a Maguindanaon, criticized Saromantang's second chapter translation on the Qur'an telling the story about "Moses."[2] Two Maranao people Jamil Tamano and Saromantang's grandson Rasol Abbas defended the criticism as Lanao del Sur and Maguindanao have different native language.[3]
