The result was redirect to Muraqaba, wikipedia isn't an instruction manual, a better article on the same subject already exists. - Bobet 10:13, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Muraqabah
WP:NOT, Wikipedia is not an instruction manual. Also, I believe that there is a high probability that this is a copyvio that the author does not understand the implications of releasing under the GFDL. IPSOS (talk) 13:37, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - now I notice that there is a proper article on the topic at Muraqaba. So this article should be deleted and redirected. IPSOS (talk) 13:49, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Agree with Delete and redirect --SLi 19:51, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment I believe the original editor has added a comment, but in the wrong place. To be sure it is considered, please see Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Muraqabah. Notinasnaid 08:37, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment i dont think it is polite for people of other faiths to come accross an article and recommend deletion instead of how to fix the article . This opens my concerns to hate crime or bigotry. some of the editors list their religion convictions and seem to be recommending harsh approach to deleting our article . please reconsider and stop this process and help to construct and proper article if that is required. nurmir@att.net author of Sufi Healing and www.nurmuhammad.com --68.42.85.43 22:46, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - I think Sufism is great. This is about the article. Wikipedia is not a place to promote your book or website. IPSOS (talk) 23:47, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment This is a 1000 year old subject, this not an advertising or promotion ?. When we wrote the article your editors all wrote that we need to state references , hence the reference to the book. Like i said if constructive critism on how to fix the article and take away the notion of deletion. we have every right to teach sufi meditation according to the NAQSHBANDI school of thought . i made reference to 100's article in the meditation section which are literally all explaintions and how to's.

- When we write about a subject we state who we are , where we got the info and what is our credibility.
- the other article is not according to our teachings.
- Please see Wikipedia:Content forking. You are not allowed to fork an article simply because there is difference of belief or practice. Muraqaba and muraqabah are clearly the same word in Arabic. Everything belongs in one article. If there are differences of belief, they get documented in the same article. You do not get to create a second article to differentiate your sect or school from another sect or school, and then change all the links in other articles so that they go to your article, which is what you did.
