[edit] Ahmed Deedat needs a change
He wasn't a Muslim priest. (Strictly speaking there is no such thing) He wasn't even a Islamic scholar. He was a Muslim who studied the Bible, and Christianity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.222.6.200 (talk) 14:18, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
- Actually he was a mullah, a selected person in a mosque to study religion and call persons to prayer or religious service on Friday service or the Muslim holy days. Islam doesn't have priests not reserved for certain people and doesn't have monasteries either, but has Islamic religious schools and everyone is eligible to be mullahs with the right knowledge to perform any level of religious service. + 71.102.53.48 (talk) 00:22, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
