In the Qu’ran it is said, “Each apostle we have sent has spoken only in the language of his own people, so that he might make plain to them his message.”A language is not merely for speaking and listening to, it must, if it is to fulfill functions fully, be written and read. The Chinese are very proud and fond of their logograph. Six months back when I visited China, I requested for a poem praising the Chinese language. At the time of the farewell, I was given three poems. My Chinese teacher in Dhaka gave me another poem. All were in praise of Chinese logograph. It is no wonder that many an elder and conservative Chinese still pine for pre-reform Chinese logograph.
“If you have script then your language will be alive. You will be alive as long your religion is in existence. You will be lost when you lose your script, language and religion.
