[edit] Citations

I have been searching for Hadith that state the facts mentioned in this page, but they do not seem to exist. However this story seems to be accepted as legitimate, if a search is carried out on Google, there will be many sites that support it. In this case, what websites would be deemed as legitimate enough to be quoted as a citation? M2k41 22:27, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

There is no single arabic source that talks about the cats name nor the story about the "call to prayer".

Please provide citations as per WP:V. Citations should be from respectable sources, historians etc., and not from a website which doesn't provide a source for it. --Ragib 01:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Have a look at any of the books in this Google search. You're mistaken if you think this story is limited to the Internet. - Nunh-huh 19:59, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

In the article's end, it is said that mistreating a cat is seen as a severe sin in Islam, but this is not right, because not especialy cat's are concerned, but any animal that don't make threat to humans. There's a hadith that say that a women went to hell because she let her cat die from starvation but the moral of the hadith doesn't target only the cats but all the other animals.

[edit] Transcription

Shouldn't the article's title be Mu'izza? This is the standard transliteration of Arabic ﻣﻮﻴﺰا. -Al-Bargit 20:05, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
