## Resource

In last week’s episode, The Secret Translators , we told the story of the three white American reverts behind the Saheeh International translation of the Qur’an, and the unique challenges they faced in translating the holy text. But that was only part of the story. This week, we’re sharing an episode from The Digital Sisterhood that digs deeper into the life of one of the translators, Amatullah "AJ" Bentley. There was so much more to than AJ's story than we were able to cover on the episode, and on this episode, Cadar follows up with a different set of questions inspired by a curiosity she noticed on AJ's LinkedIn page. --- CREDITS: Reported by Cadar Mohamud. Produced by Muna Scekomar, with help from assistant producers Nima Harun and Khweya Bezeid. --- A new episode of More Muslim will be out next Wednesday. In the meantime, check out The Digital Sisterhood 's latest season, which premiered last week with a story featuring our host, Sohaira Siddiqui: https://pod.link/1562999893/episode/NTYwNzgwMmEtMGUxNS0xMWYxLWE0NDctZDcxZjQ3MjNiYmJj
