Abstract :
There is great importance for the translation
process in human life generally, due to the transferring
of information between civilizations. Translation is
defined as the process through which data and
information are transferred between languages for
scientific and cultural exchange. This study concerns
introducing the significance of translation in a multi-
cultural country and finding out the possible way to
build up and promote coexistence in Sri Lanka via
translation processes. The researcher used descriptive
and analytical methods to complete this study. To meet
the objectives of the study, the primary and secondary
data were used with qualitative and quantitative
approaches. The study concluded that translation is
essential in multilingual and multicultural countries such
as Sri Lanka. It can bring about co-existence and peace
and build sustainable development. At a time, when Sri
Lankan Muslims are facing various problems,
translation will play the role of conveying Islamic
teachings in Arabic into local languages and making
understanding among the people of Sri Lanka.
