Name of a book
When translating a name of a book from Arabic into English, do we transelatrate it, or translate it into English, or both (transelaterate it and write its meaning in English)?
نوه إليه الشيخ عبد الرحمن بن عبد اللطيف
صاحب كتاب مشاهير علماء نجد، من أن محقق كتاب ابن غنام
المسمى "روضة الأفكار والأفهام" وهو الدكتور ناصر الدين الأسد
Please answer depending on the example given above.
Many thanks to you all and keep up the good work :D

Both
well , If I am the one who is gonna read the book and Arabic is not my language , I think it would be much better if yiu do both. Imean write " Rawdat - Al - Afkar- wal- Afham" and then translate it and put the translation into between two practises " " like that. that is the academic way of translation , that's how we readin engish books translated form Arabic , And I've participated in some , like " Khwater Qura'nya" " Koranic Thoughts"

Gardin of Thoughts and Understanding
I wouldn't prefer to transliterate it.

: 'Garden' not 'gardin', of course. But one must consider who the readers are: just the translation would suffice in a text for the general reader, but I would put both the translation and the transliteration if it's in an academic text.
