The name al-Fuqra' is not immediately obvious in meaning. First of all, the hamza at the end may or may not be part of the name. It may be al-Fuqraa'. It may also be al-Fuqaraa', which would mean "the poor." However, if you want to find citations to this group on Google, use Fuqra.

[edit] Contradictory statements

According to profile of al-Fuqra by the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism (MIPT), the group was falsely believed to have been founded by Pakistani cleric Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani Hashemi in 1980.

"Falsely believes"? What's correct then? Needs sourcing and cleanup. /Blaxthos 16:49, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re Alleged Non-Neutrality of Article

I completely acknowledge the potential controversy that might be involved in dealing with topics like these, but applying a NPOV violation template without providing the specific details of *what* you find to be non-neutral about the article is less than helpful. Other editors require that input in order to work with you to get the neutral "fact" based article that I'm sure both of us desire. I have no objection whatsoever to the template being re-applied, provided that you name specific issues so that they can be addressed in a way keeping with established policy here on Wikipedia.

[edit] Change of beginning

Jamaat ul-Fuqra (alternatively Jamaat al-Fuqra) (Arabic: جماعة الفقراء, "Community of the Impoverished") is an organization

Should be changed to

Jamaat ul-Fuqra (alternatively Jamaat al-Fuqra) (Arabic: جماعة الفقراء, "Community of the Impoverished") is a terrorist organization

This is a proven terrorist organization whose activities are listed even in this article and should be identified as such from the beginning. Barring any disagreements, I will make this change in approx. one-two weeks. ProtektYaNutz (talk) 17:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
