The Translator is Sudanese writer Leila Aboulela's first novel, published in 1999. It is a story about a young Muslim Sudanese widow living in Scotland without her son, and her blooming relationship with a secular Scottish Middle Eastern scholar. The novel takes place both in Khartoum and Aberdeen and was inspired partially by Aboulela's own experience moving between these two cities. Aboulela refers to the novel and the main character Sammar as "a Muslim Jane Eyre". It focuses on issues of faith, cross-cultural romance, and the modernization of Sudan.

Coetzee called the book "a story of love and faith all the more moving for the restraint with which it is written." In reference to the importance of faith in the story, Riffat Yusuf of The Muslim News has called The Translator "The first halal novel written in English". (en)
