[edit] Criticism of Islam

The article needs lots of work. --JuanMuslim 03:33, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Tawhīd

This article about the most important aspect of Islam doesn't contain enough information. --JuanMuslim 04:29, 28 October 2005 (UTC) Added some info from imam Ali, sunni source are welcomed. --Striver 02:22, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

I've added some new sections to the article. Add any comments you may have to its talk page. --JuanMuslim 1m 08:08, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

It is the very basic of Muslim faith. Why they have divided it into Sunni/Shia? Even many attributes of Allah consider by Sunni as well as Shia are written ONLY under Shia. Even Quranic Ayats are divided into sects. Can someone look at it and try to get common thing out from Sect sections, so that the sizes of shia/sunni sections could be reduced ? --- Faisal 03:02, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hajj & co

I made som changes to Hajj, Ihram, Umrah and Mut'ah of Hajj.

Needs copyediting and aproval from the Sunni pov holders.

--Striver 16:45, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

I have further copyedited the Ihram article. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 19:55, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
I don't understand your changes on the Hajj article, however, so I have reverted them for now and will clean up the article instead. Thanks --a.n.o.n.y.m t 19:57, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
Could you share your confusion on the Hajj talk page? Thx :) --Striver 20:44, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
I've done a lot of work on Hajj, but I'm thinking maybe the categories could be broken up better, especially the "millions" and "fatal" sections. Also, an image on the page might be nice. Ideas? Turnstep 03:09, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
I think the category issue was resolved a few days back. This article does not need any more major editing, but smaller fixes are always necessary. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 19:54, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
Actually I think there is an ongoing revert/edit war between Striver and Zora . It is discussed at Mut'ah of Hajj. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 19:57, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
Unless Zora wants to reply to my horribly bad spellt respons, i have nothing more to add to this article. --Striver 04:30, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

I just made some editions, i need some commments and help from co-editors :) --Striver 16:42, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Your new method of referencing books by creating articles for them and then linking is a WASTE of Wikipedia resources. Please stop. You are turning the Ali article into a weird and lumpy bit of Shi'a piety. You are trashing articles right and left. Please STOP. You've made more than 500 edits in the last four days or so. PLEASE STOP. Zora 17:10, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Muhammad bin Qasim

Could you help me out on the Muhammad bin Qasim article? perhaps get the guild members to help out. Once you check the article out you'll know why I'm saying. Check the talk page. of the article. --Street Scholar

Not sure what the date on this item was but in the past few months I have updated the article and associated articles significantly. It still needs some work and I am in the process distilling it from the Cachnama.

[edit] Islamic conquest of Iran

  • Hi guys. My name is Fayssal! I am an Arab (as my name tries to say) and of course I am a citizen of the world! Apart from being this and that, I am Svest!

[edit] Mongol Empire

Does this article represent that the mongols, uniqly in history, embraced the conqured lands religon, or do we need a Mongols invaders becoming Muslims article? --Striver 03:36, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

That is far from being unique in history. The tribes that invaded the Roman Empire became Christians, the Manchus became Confucians, Taoists, and Buddhists, etc. Zora 10:33, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Oh, that was a line i heard and stuck... seems like the line was incorrect... Maybe they meant "uniquely (in that large quantities)"?I dont know... Anyhow, isnt it strange that it is not mentioned at all in the article? --Striver 13:49, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Well, their impact was fairly unique.They gave the islamic world that injection of Colour that was somewhat absent prior.It's a worthyarticle f it's own, but, I'm not capable of doing it. --Irishpunktom\talk 19:35, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

Please help expand the articles on Black Muslims and Latino Muslims. --JuanMuslim 1m 03:35, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] spherical trigonometry

Islam and flat-earth theories reads:

The scholars who held to the round earth theory used it in an impeccably Islamic manner, to calculate the shortest distance between any given point on the earth and Mecca. This determined the qibla, or Muslim direction of prayer. Muslim mathematicians developed spherical trigonometry in order to make these calculations [3].

But that is not reflected in spherical trigonometry. If it is a Muslim that invented it, or they reinveted it, it should be stated in the article, however, im not well versed in that field and dont feel confident in making claims.

I like your idea about Islam in the Bible. That particular article is very relevant to Islam and could be very interesting once completed. This other article seems as if it would be better as part of another article.--Juan Muslim 08:44, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your credit and proposal. I differ on that regard, may i ask what other article you propose it should be merged into, and your motivation of it not meriting its own aricle?
I argue that this single non wiki article justifies having a separate WP article. --Striver 18:35, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
As striver knows I said that same thing about the creation of this article.[5], but since he believes that it should merit its own article, I suggest making a short article and then seeing whether it can be merged into another article. I think that the article as it stands now is innacurate. Thanks. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 20:29, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Being the enemy of God, Muhammad and Ahl al-Bayt

I dont see why the topic was Archived, specialy since i sayd "I have lots to say about this, but dont have time right now. Ill tag it for speedie, As a gesture of good faith. Expect me to return to this issue later."

I only agreed to speede it, since not doing so would result in me giving the impresion of not acting in good faith, and that my other sugestion was a meere diversion.

Either was the objection that the titled was POV, wich i answered and did not get a rebutle, or the objection was that it was un-encyclopedic.

It could not have been that it was malplaced, since the correct sugestion would have been to merge it with some other article.

So, could i please be informed on why the article was un-encyclopedic, so i can be educated about that and not do the same misstake in the future?

I do trust that everybody involved knew what the article was about --Striver 16:40, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Qareen

Does anybody know anything about this . Here it says that this thing is discussed in Sura-al-naas too.....I wonder.......also see the deleted versions . Does anybody know where this subject is discussed in Quran or Hadith ?? F.a.y.تبادله خيال /c 19:46, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Recall the types of created beings. People, angels, jinn, but not qareen. Actually, the qareen is a type of jinn. You may use google.com to learn more about them. From the link: "The Qareen is the Jinn companion which is assigned to every human being. It is this Jinn which whispers to our base desires and constantly tries to divert us from righteousness. The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: "Everyone of you has been assigned a companion from the Jinn. The companions asked: Even you O' Messenger of Allah? And the Prophet replied: Even me, except that Allah has helped me against him and he has submitted. Now he only tells me to do good" (Sahih Muslim)--Juan Muslim 02:42, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
Qareen: Demon like creature mentioned more in Hadith, mainly that the Prophet Mohamed managed to convert his Qareen into a Muslim. Khamsa means 5 in Arabic

[edit] Prostitution

quote:

The English word whore, referring to (female) prostitutes, is taken from the Old English word hōra (from the Indo-European root kā meaning "to like, desire") but usage of that word is widely considered pejorative and prostitute is a less value-laden term.

[edit] Historical Islam-West relations

  • Should'nt we have a Historical Islam-West relations article? Here is a quote we can use in it:
"If there is much misunderstanding in the West about the nature of Islam, there is also much ignorance about the debt our own culture and civilisation owe to the Islamic world. It is a failure, which stems, I think, from the straight-jacket of history, which we have inherited. The medieval Islamic world, from central Asia to the shores of the Atlantic, was a world where scholars and men of learning flourished. But because we have tended to see Islam as the enemy of the West, as an alien culture, society, and system of belief, we have tended to ignore or erase its great relevance to our own history." ,Prince Charles, lecture at Oxford University.'

--Striver 21:02, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mosque

I did some considerable work on the mosque article today as I thought the original didn't say everything it should have. Some input would be great. joturner 03:00, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Under the other functions the masjid performs. It's written "places where Muslims are supposed to gather for social activities.". Perhaps change to "places where Muslims are able to gather for social activities."? I know it would be nice for all masjids to handle social activities. However that doesn't always work because of desicions the board members make. --Ibrahim Noor 06:32, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Mosque is an English word for the Arabic Word Masjid. Masjid means the place to perform Sajda. Sajda is bowing towards the Qibla (Al-Ka'aba, in Makkah (Saudi Arabia)) so that the forhead and nose touches the ground.

Mosque is a place where muslims (usually men) perform religious activities. Following are the main religious activities:

1. Offering prayers (Namaz)
2. Zikr ( Reminding/Remembering Allah )
3. Learning ( Gaining Knowledge )

[edit] Merge or not

Militant Islam , Islamism , Islamist terrorism . Seem to be a lot similar to me . Farhansher 21:23, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

It seems like the three topics are related. However Islamism and Islamist terrorism seem to deal with two different topics, the former about "ultra-conservate" Islam and the latter about violent Islam. The Militant Islam article seems to be an overlap of the other two. Therefore, I think the information from the Militant Islam article should be split among the other two and the article redirected to the Islamism article. joturner 22:02, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
NOT
Islamism is a subject I agree with. However there are some bad apples using the same policies, such as Islamist terrorism and Militant Islam. They should not be merge into one. Islamism is a method that can be achieved without violence.--Ibrahim Noor 06:22, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Is crescent fine on muslim userbox , or should it be changed with something else , most probably Allah . F.a.y.تبادله خيال /c 12:59, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Although the crescent originated from the Ottoman, it has morphed a very common symbol of Islam. In addition, the image of the crescent, although it may be hard to see, has the shahadah in it. Therefore, I think the crescent with shahadah caligraphy should stay. joturner 13:21, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Islam and anti-Semitism

At the moment, alleges that the Quran is anti-semitic for calling Abraham a Muslim instead of a Jew. Stress given to actions and policies that imply oppression, none to the positive treatments. -unsigned


The article actually states that Islam is anti-semitic because the Qur'an calls Abraham a Muslim and not a Jew. The article is nothing but a series of indictments against Islam using the personal opinions of the editors. Weasel words and rhetoric are being used to make it apparent that the Qur'an considers all Jews "monkeys and pigs". Amibidhrohi 15:09, 6 June 2006 (UTC).

I don't think "former" is really necessary.For example, Christianity in the Former Roman Empire?

The original title would mean islam when/where the Soviet Union existed(an historical artical), and islam in the former soviet union would be a contempory article about those countires that are independant Now but used to be in the Soviet union.Hypnosadist 00:06, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

I propose that we, as a guild, concentrate on improving the Islam article until we're able to get it to featured status. BhaiSaab 06:16, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


A section on Islamic Extremist Terrorism is currently being added, by certain people, onto the Islam article. Do you think it should it go there or not? Go to the talk page and voice your opinion. BhaiSaab talk 17:26, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Islamic terrorism There is currently a discussion going on as to whether the Islamic terrorist section I added to Islam here[9] belongs in the article or not, or indeed whether any mention of Islamic terrorism should be made. Your thoughts and input would be appreciated here. Dev920 18:04, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mutaween

Moved from Strivers talk page:

As salam alaikum. Have a look at mutaween - there is a lot of anti-Muslim bias here and this term is connected mainly with Saudi state, but some people are trying to expand it to the entire Muslim world! AlMuslimeen 05:17, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hadeeth Encyclopedia

Man, i hate to do this, but is Hadeeth Encyclopedia really encyclopedic? --Striver 08:49, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

The website is yet under construction and have problems. I think the article could be deleted now and created again later may be. Also when someone could get to individual books hadiths then why need that website. Everybody can submit hadith on it which is not that good idea too.--- ابراهيم 17:08, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
