Translation plays a pivotal role in the exchange of knowledge and culture. Its importance multiplies in learning and teaching foreign languages.

Therefore, it translated the books, which were included in the curriculum of the various classes. This paper analyses the idea of instructing the students in their mother tongue, in this case, the Urdu Language. Then it focuses on the establishment of translation societies and mentions the list of the books, which were translated by these societies. The paper also includes the biographical accounts of some prominent translators who were associated with Delhi College, such as Shaikh Mamlūk al-‘Alī, Shaikh Karīm al-Dīn and others.
