well the best solution is to reactivate it, because english to arabic sound
translation ( يناير، فبراير,.....) in my opinion would not be that easy for
people not aware of them.

I understand what you mean here. Consider this however: the number of people who are not aware of the Babylonian names, far exceeds the number of people who dont know the Gregorian names.

Our convention so far has been to use the Gregorian names as opposed
to the Babylonian. When we can handle different locales, we will be
able to have different versions.

But for the moment, I think you will find the vast majority are in
favour of Gregorian names.
