Talk:Misbaha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tasbih is from Babylonia, so it is needed further study.

[edit] cleanup

I tried to clean this up a little... I removed the contradict tag, since it wasn't really all that conradictory and there was no explaination on the talk page. I also removed the line about there being up to 1000 beads... As far as I know the tasbih only has 99 or 33... Anything else belongs to a different religion and should be noted on the broader prayer beads page. – cacahuate talk 22:40, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Reasons:

  1. This is an article about an object used by Muslims thourghout the Muslim world. Therefore, it is thought that the use of the original Arabic term Misbaha is more accurate. This is different from the case of regional Islam related practices and objects, which are better denoted by their local names. The term Tasbih it seems is used mostly in Farsi, Urdu...etc.
  2. The title of the article conflicts with a central Islamic practice called Tasbih, which is the act of of repetitive glorification of Allah through the use of short utterances.Hakeem.gadi 11:36, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
