Assalamu alaykum, Rehan. Heres an idea that is worth your time:
A web site that teaches languages for free, rated as better than Rosetta Stone software.
Here is a Ted Talk that the founder of the site gave: http://youtu.be/-Ht4qiDRZE8.
Today there are six languages on-line, and 10,000,000 users. But since October 9, 2013, the site has invited native speakers of other languages to step forward to add their language to the site. It is a process that will take less time the more people participate. The first step of the process will be teaching speakers of the foreign language how to speak English. Then that data will be used to teach English speakers the foreign language. Finally, the collected data will allow speakers of any language to learn any other language.
The business model of the site that explains why the site is free for language learners is explained in the video.
I want you to consider recruiting people to add Urdu to the site. Once Urdu to English is accomplished, it will be easier to add Urdu to Chinese, Urdu to French, Urdu to etc., etc.
They need to visit http://incubator.duolingo.com
If you know speakers of Fushaa Arabic -- Arabic free of any dialects, not the language of the streets of Cairo, buit the language of AlJazeera, of academia, etc. Then encourage them, too.
Again, the more people are involved, the faster the language will come on-line inshaAllah.
If Urdu is added, millions of Pakistanis will benefit inshaAllah, and Urdu will be preserved, too, inshaAllah as an easy to learn language. When Arabic is added, inshaAllah, billions of people will have better access to the Quran, assuming that Fushaa is added as opposed to a dialect.
Sorry for the long message. But I think you will agree with me that this project has the capacity to change the world as we know it. And I know that will interest you.
