“Al Qasimi Publications” Publishes a Collection of Plays by the Ruler of Sharjah in Spanish

by | May 5, 2021 | News

“Al Qasimi Publications”, a publishing house specialized in publishing and distributing the books and works written by His Highness Sheikh DrSultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, has released a collection of plays written by His Highness and translated it into Spanish.

The house has chosen Spanish in particular since it is one of the six official languages of the UN. It is also a certified language in the European Union and in many other international organizations. Spanish occupies the third place among the languages used on the internet and is the mother tongue in 22 countries. 567 million people around the world speak Spanish.

Following the growing recognition of its publications given the remarkably intensive presence in Arab and international exhibitions and the conclusion of a number of agreements with publishing houses and libraries, “Al Qasimi Publications” has translated the books written by His Highness into 22 languages and 220 titles were released. These include various literary and historical works, novels and biographies.
