I find muslim names transliterated in too many ways. What is the proper way to transliterate the name that means proof? Is it Bourhan or Burhan?Which is the correct spelling?
Answer
The transliteration of any Muslim name would differ according to
pronunciation of the English Alphabet in different localities (due to
different accents). Therefore, whichever transliteration you feel is closest
to the Arabic pronunciation would be the best.
