- Strong keep. This is not a very well written article by any means; there's a certain style of Islamic articles, especially bios, that read in this tortured way. But they can be improved, it's a stylistic flaw not substantative. However, I have heard of (and skimmed a couple times) the column “Ask the Imam” for Beliefnet.com, written by Khan. I'm certain that column had a readership well over 5000. That meets the "author test". Moreover, the article at least claims that he was a co-founder of a notable university, which seems to easily meet the "professor test". Please, closing admin, don't close this as delete with so few votes... either let the article improve under "no consensus", or at least extend the AfD to get more input.
