[edit] Not a university

What the heck is this??? This is not a university but an islamic religious school. This article is about religion and politics, not science, humanities, philosophy, jurisprudence, economics, etc. Get rid of this nonsense ! 141.53.194.251 15:31, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Mark of Shame

I beg your pardon, but what does Saudi Arabia have to do with Al-Azhar? You are nothing but a troll.--Abdousi 04:03, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Whatever anyone's opinion one way or another of what they teach, they're still one of the oldest surviving higher education institutions in the world. Which, come to think of it, might bear mentioning in the article somewhere, no? -FZ 20:52, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Why am I a Muslim

LDH 02:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC) This article is nothing more than an advertisement for a religious school. BTW I came across this article while googling for info on Muhammad Sayyed Tantawi's latest endorsement of mass murder. Tantawi is the religious dictator of this so-called university.

[edit] The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

The university of Al-Azhar is also responisible for the publication of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion which is an antesemitic false accusation against the jewish community - a conspiracy theory - saying that the jewish are planing to take over and run the world.

I removed this statement, which was added by an anonymous editor, because it breaks NPOV, is unsourced and is quite harmful (see Template:Fact). If mention of this book is to be made in this article, it must maintain a Neutral Point of View and be accompanied by a citation from a valid source. Cimm[talk] 15:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
