Nitpick: “...as soon as possible” sounds more natural to native speakers

Ulugh Beg’s observatory was what Ottomans’ short lived one was built to compete with

urrghh... i was "thinking" of writing "i will be devouring this book as fast as possible" because wink wink torrents but changed the wording because i didn't want to write the "t" word but yeah

What sounds most natural to native speakers is not correcting people's language unasked.

A lot of people hate being corrected on language, but many welcome it. In my life, I've certainly had my fair share of people come to me upset saying "I've been saying it wrong all this time and you never told me!"

Best not to jump to conclusions about the speaker's wishes.

Fair enough, but he and I share a native non-English language, so I thought I was being helpful.

i often try to keep my language as close to british english but very sometimes there is a slip up. I try to avoid this though

In Urdu the distinction is a little different and probably very seldom arises in the English sense (e.g. jaldi utho vs jaldi se utho when what is meant is like subah sawere (se) utho) so it's not your fault.
