[edit] Therapeutic effects

"Muslim inmates are allowed to utilize dhikr beads for therapeutic effects (see, [1])." ... === what does this refer to, a prison, a state, the US? please clarify, otherwise it's a useless detail. thx. (user: saskialouise)

[edit] Major POV issues

I was quite shocked upon initially reading this article; whoever wrote this current version didn't even attempt to present it in an unbiased manner. The article states in clear language that certain methods of dhikr are allowed even though it also notes that this is disputed. It is not the job of a Wikipedia article to decide whether or not this practice is acceptable, but rather to inform readers of it and showcase all opinions about it, both for and against.
