[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Nkv, welcome to Wikipedia!

Here are some tips:

If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alphax τεχ 09:20, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Adnan Oktar

Remember to mark your edits as minor only when they genuinely are (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). "The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'." --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:29, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] User:AlMac|(talk) welcomes you to Wikipedia

I posted some comments at your entry in New User Wikipedia:New_user_log#Noufal_Ibrahim. You might want to use this link to see what I said, and then if you want other people there to see your user-id, post some brief Thanks using ~~~~ . Incidentally, if you want to see how to do what I just did (the 4 tildes or other Wiki coding in an inert form so easy to copy), I have that on User:AlMac/Help_template#Standard_input, more for purposes of helping me that helping other people, while User:AlMac/Wiki beginners has stuff aimed at helping newcomers to Wiki.

Incidentally I was raised a Christian, but when I am on Wikipedia, helping it have a WP:NPOV that serves all people, regardless of their background, takes precedence over individual background, from my perspective. User:AlMac|(talk) 06:00, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: autobiographies

Wikipedia:Autobiography is the page you're looking for. Although it's not an official policy, it is a guideline; it's not so much that you're not allowed to write an article about yourself (provided there's a good reason that there should be an article on you - if there's not, it's vanity), but that it's frowned upon, for several very good reasons (which are in the guideline page). At any rate, an article shouldn't be written about a person unless they meet the criteria for inclusion of biographies. Cheers, Alphax τεχ 14:12, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nazar

Hi, Take a look at Nazar ill'al-murd, the events described there take place quite early in Islamic history. Haiduc 11:24, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps "earliest days" is a bit overstated. Do you think that "early centuries" wouldbe more on target? Haiduc 19:46, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
"Facticity." Good word, I'll have to remember that one. Please do read the scholarship on this, it is very instructive. I am very sorry I did not source this properly when I wrote it - in those days I just did not know how to use the software and did not want to render the article illegible with citations in the text. But I am sure it can all be recovered with a bit of work. Just let me know what you think needs to be supported. Haiduc 18:19, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Muawiyah

Hi, no I don't have references for it because I didn't add it. I might have edited other things but I never added that. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 01:49, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sheikh page

Some people are adding and deleting the "Important note" about Sufis. I have modified this note as a compromise so that it is acceptable to both sides. Siddiqui 17:55, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sufism, controversy and debate

The main article namespace is not for discussion by Wikipedians, but sub-talkpages are. Therefore I have moved the Sufism, controversy and debate article to Talk:Sufism/Controversy and debate. Please feel free to continue the discussion there. --Zoz (t) 16:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Happy editing! --Zoz (t) 12:05, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Typo

Thanks for fixing the typo on the Yahiya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi article. I think the policy is to mark such corrections as minor edits. Thanks. :-)

No worries :-)

And, i did mark it as minor -- that's what the m next to the edit means ;-) --DakAD 03:10, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Not atall -- 'bother' me any time :-) --DakAD 06:04, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] On Imam Shafi'i

He didn't label all of them as kafir, I have provided an online link which talks a bit more about it (not as much as Minhaaj Al-Sunnah itself of course), he labels all Rafidi Shi'a of at least fiqh Jaffriyah (so not Zaydi's and not neccessarily others) Shi'ites as heretics and he warns Muslims not to narrate Rafidi Shi'a ahadith later on. I couldn't find any online quotes of it being only Jaffariyah Twelvers (the majority) so I didn't put that in the article, and plus a number of scholars have referred to the non-Jaffariah as worse so I didn't think it would be appropriate. And I'm as sure of it as I am sure of any writings where I myself have not personally questioned the narrator and so I will change it back. Also, regarding what a dictionary says (rather a thesauraus), these are both English dictionaries since I haven't ever really required a dictionary when reading Arabic, when I have trouble I can ask someone or the context is self-explanatory:

"an opinion or belief that contradicts established religious teaching, especially one that is officially condemned by a religious authority" Encarta World Dictionary

Roget's New Millenium Thesauraus lists apostasy, blasphemy, disbelief(kufr) all as synonyms of 'heresy'. --xx-Mohammad Mufti-xx 07:15, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

My apologies, new to wikipedia and was unaware of Users also having discussion pages. Was wondering why your page had been entirely blank, this answers it. --xx-Mohammad Mufti-xx 10:50, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

I'll keep an eye on the article. You can add warning templates to the talkpages of users who add copyrighted material, and if one person continues to add such material, they will get suspended. BhaiSaab talk 05:37, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

You can give warnings to IP addresses. Just go on their talkpages. BhaiSaab talk 05:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)



You are welcome. Salaam, Namaste, Peace. David Traver 15:35, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] shivaji

I will delete the Sambhaji Brigade (I dont support this org either, they are really funny) link you showed me immediately.Bakaman Bakatalk 17:49, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Also, please refrain from quoting countercurrents and sacw, they have little credibility. Many of those sites are fronts for Marxist and Christian Missionairy orgs.Bakaman Bakatalk 17:51, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Ram Puniyani is not a respected scholar. I am definitely going to delete that link without discussion. He is a documented anti-Hindu and has earned the nickname "Ravan Puniyani" for good reasons. There is a reason why he is not quoted on wiki. If there are any other links you wish to discuss I'm listening.Bakaman Bakatalk 17:56, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
The sambhaji Brigade is not exactly pro Hindu. It is merely pro-Maratha and xenophobic. It does not discriminate on religion, but it is very pro-Shivaji.Bakaman Bakatalk 17:59, 16 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Sufism

"Resolved"?? i dont see anything that was resolved. You have not even defended your fabricated websites as pointed by pakiguy. i dont want to waste my time uselessly talking to you or debating. As a concerned individual i should warn people that this is a disputed article. Why is that bothering you? Killbillsbrowser 16:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Like i said i dont want to waste my time any further in this. You countered nothing. In fact there were many proofs bought, and everytime you repeated the same old lame excuse that these are salafi websites. You even resorted to fabricted websites and fabricated sheikhs (grand mufti of makkah huh???). The only way to deal with such things is the disputed tag. Thanks for your time Killbillsbrowser 16:50, 17 August 2006 (UTC)



[edit] Links of the Sunni Islam Page

I noticed you revered my edit to the links on the Sunni Islam page. There were two reasons this was done. First the links in their current form are unorganized and one even uses an improper text box. Second, the use of forums as academic sources had been discussed previously and consensus had been reached. So I am not sure what the reason for the revert was or at the very least the reason for the full revert. ZaydHammoudeh 18:11, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:Khokhar976

You need to watch this guy. He is vandalizing Deobandi articles with propoganda of his Ahmadi religion. He is trying to prove that his prophet, who was a British tout, was a freedom fighter and Deobandies, who sacrificed a lot during the revolt, were British touts. He is also trying to show that prominent Deobandi scholars like Maulana Ubaidullah Sindhi were secretly Ahmadies. There seems to be no Deobandi vigilance here and I, a non Deobandi, seems to be their lone warrior loosing war against vandalism :) Hassanfarooqi 15:13, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Click here for his contribs. Hassanfarooqi 15:33, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

Assalamo Alykum,

I am khokhar976. I would just like to point out that I will not mention anything in any article without proper references. I admire the Deoband leaders like Maulana Nanutawi and also Barelvi leaders like Maulana Shibli for their character. I have a wealth of information about Indo-Pak history which has been hidden from the public due to bias against Ahmadis. Mr. Farooqi is one example. No where have I mentioned that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (whom I consider Imam Mahdi) was a freedom fighter against the British. I have not implied anywhere that Maulana Sindhi was a secret Ahmadi. All I want to show is that Maulana sindhi was a gentleman and not a violent leader as some might want to think. He had high regard from Maulana Noor ud Deen who was a prominent scholar of Quran and also an Ahmadi. References are provided and I am sure a just person will try to verify the facts before forming opinions. In case of anti-ahmadi persons, the opinion is already made. What can one do?? Regards, Khokhar976 15:25, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

There is no secret Cache of information. Just information that many do not like. Khokhar976 08:22, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Khokhar976 13:11, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
