If you have a problem with Shaykh Nazim then please add a criticisms section to the article rather then vandalism. Thanks Nineteen84 17:48, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello! I am trying my hardest to create an article about Shaykh Nazim that abides with Wikipedias article standards. I am new to wikipedia so please help if I am doing anything wrong. I know a lot of people disagree or dislike Shaykh Nazim and seem to vandalise and attempt to delete his articles, please abide by wikipedia rules and simply put your criticisms of the shaykh on the page rather then attempting to remove the article. A google search of Shaykh Nazim brings up 82,900 pages ( http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=Shaykh+Nazim&btnG=Google+Search&meta= ), so I'm sure he deserves a page. Thanks.

[edit] Subhanallah, I agree!

As a matter of fact, these times everbody seems to feel entitled to express some kind of opinion, whether he or she is qualified or not (and most of the time there is neither qualification nor good intention whatsoever). - If those people, who talk or write badly on an absolutely exceptional Saint as is Maulana Sheikh Nazim, just afforded no more than the flight fare to the island of Cyprus and meet him personally (or his representative, Sheikh Hisham Kabbani, who is based in the US-state of Michigan), I'm sure, they would stop spreading their ridiculous, yet harmful rumours. - But, of course, the more powerful the light, the more furious the opposing antiforce. They lack fairness and respect, as they have already lost every sense of the spiritual. So they do what they are doing, which is destroy, whereever they can, thereby making themselves not the slightest bit happier, but rather moving their souls further into nothingness and despair. For the Sheikhs it doesn't make a real difference, as they are held and sheltered within the Divine, and guided, if not to say remote-controlled, by the prophet Muhammad s. a. w. s. - Whether you are a murid of Sheikh Nazim or not: Best wishes for your project, maybe you could also get in contact with Sheikh Hisham for this. - Assalaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatu, to whom ever it may concern! -- Ahmad Jamal as Saif 10:44, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
