Please stop linking this article to the "Sri Lankan Tamil Society" stub. It is a factual error and the Sri Lankan Moors are not part of Tamil Society. Thank you

Good that you logged in. Next time sign your name too. I agree with your edit, the Tamil society doesnt have anything to do with Islam in SL. --Matt57 (talkcontribs) 22:09, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, There is also another concern with user Lahiru K who is constantly adding and reverting unwanted material regarding Islamic Fundamentalism in Sri Lanka. The user has a tendency to post discriminatory articles against Sri Lankan Muslims. Please see that this person does not revert unwanted materials into this article.
I didn't add any unwanted material regarding Islamic Fundamentalism. I just revert the blanking from an IP. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ walkie-talkie 10:33, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Are Sri Lankan Moors shias or sunnis? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiltord (talk • contribs) 18:46, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Sri Lankan Moors are predominantly Sunnis within the Shafi school of thought. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.63.71.144 (talk) 01:21, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

The language section contradicts the Alwi discussion immediately above; I'd suggest merging the former into the latter. Penalba2000 (talk) 23:38, 1 May 2008 (UTC)


Since this article deals with Islam in Sri Lanka, I suggest that a separate new page be created for the Sri Lankan Moor ethnic group. This page should just deal with the religious aspect rather than the ethnic aspect. For ethnicity, see the Sri Lankan Moors page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.141.72.223 (talk) 20:26, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
