[edit] Citations
I have been searching for Hadith that state the facts mentioned in this page, but they do not seem to exist. However this story seems to be accepted as legitimate, if a search is carried out on Google, there will be many sites that support it. In this case, what websites would be deemed as legitimate enough to be quoted as a citation? M2k41 22:27, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
There is no single arabic source that talks about the cats name nor the story about the "call to prayer".
- Please provide citations as per WP:V. Citations should be from respectable sources, historians etc., and not from a website which doesn't provide a source for it. --Ragib 01:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Have a look at any of the books in this Google search. You're mistaken if you think this story is limited to the Internet. - Nunh-huh 19:59, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
In the article's end, it is said that mistreating a cat is seen as a severe sin in Islam, but this is not right, because not especialy cat's are concerned, but any animal that don't make threat to humans. There's a hadith that say that a women went to hell because she let her cat die from starvation but the moral of the hadith doesn't target only the cats but all the other animals.
An Arabic written reference is mentioned here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Muezza_%282nd_nomination%29
This page needs to and must be deleted. When it comes to matters of religion we must have solid hadiths or the Quran as sources. If the websites or the books that mention this story are legitimate they would have used a hadith as a source. Also, I believe this story is the story of Abu Hurreira. I am asking you kindly to please change this. Prophet Muhammad used to treat cats kindly, and the last two stories are true (the ones about making wudu, and not torturing animals). The first two stories are not true and need to be edited.
[edit] Transcription
Shouldn't the article's title be Mu'izza? This is the standard transliteration of Arabic ﻣﻮﻴﺰا. -Al-Bargit 20:05, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Removal of unsourced text
I have decided to remove the line "It is also believed that when Muhammad would give sermons within his household he would often hold Muezza in his lap [citation needed]" I originally put this in, but myself and others have not been able to find a source.M2k41 (talk) 00:28, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
