My gut feeling is that this author is sufficiently notable. His work (this one book) seems to be a basis for religious education in the Shariah tradition of Islam and has been for nearly 800 years. Perhaps the uploader can provide more information. The photo, by the way, is great - fully legible. The title given there (at the top of page 1) reads: "hādha kitāb ta'līmu'l-muta'allam" (This is the book of instruction of the learner). This should be reconciled with the given title.

I agree about notability and am not deleting at this time. It would definitely be good to see this expanded to give readers, especially those unfamiliar with Islam, some idea about what the book is. Kafziel ^Talk 14:24, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
