Is the Jordan Think Tank Arabic Babylonian Talmud Kosher?

JPost reports that and Arabic translation of the Talmud has been published.
A think tank on Middle East affairs in Jordan has for the first time published a translation of the Babylonian Talmud in Arabic.

Middle East Studies Center based in Amman produced the 20-volume work, which took six years to complete and is the labor of 95 translators, language experts and editors.
Sketchy details leave questions open about whether the motives of the translators are kosher or not.

We will follow up as more information becomes available.
