[edit] Indian Sub continent Zaidis versus Yemeni Zaidis & Al-Zaidis

Some Zaidis are known as Wasitis. Zayd ibn Ali was martyred in Kufa, Iraq, many of his descendents either returned to al-Hijaz or remained in Iraq. Some of those who stayed in Iraq settled in Wasit. Some descendants from Wasit then moved to the Indian subcontinent. These Zaidis believe in twelve Imams and are part of the Shia Ithna Asharia. Most of them settled in India and Pakistan. The biggest group of Zaidis believing in twelve Shia Imams is known as Saadat-e-Bara. Saadat means descendant of the Prophet Muhammad and Bara means twelve in Hindi and Urdu. Saadat-e-Bara's numbers are highest in Karachi (Pakistan) and Muzaffarnagar (India).

NOTE* The Descendents of Zaid that stayed in Iraq and then moved to the subcontinent have the last name Zaidi. Zaid's descendent that returned to Al-Hijaz and then travelled to al-Asir and Sana'a have the last name Al-Zaidi. Basically Those who have the last name Zaidi are from the Subcontinent and those who have Al-Zaidi are Arab. Sub continent zaidis are not to be confused with the zaidis of Yemen. In Yemen there are two types of Zaidis: Al-Zaidis whom are descendents of Zaid ibn Ali and Zaidis, whom are followers of the Zaidi Fiqh

Al-Zaidi

Like i said there are two types of Zaidis in Yemen, Al-Zaidis whom are descendents of Zaid and Zaidis who are the followers of the Zaidi Fiqh Fivers. There are Al-Zaidis who are Fivers and those who are Twelvers. As for the Fivers, the Imamate is still open since the last Zaidi Imam of !967 CE. Any Sayyid who is a jurist and is sane has all five senses and will fight against tyranny can be the imam. Al-Zaidi

[edit] Titles for Fatima Zahra

Hullo, Zaidi, you added a great many titles to the list. Do you think you could alphabetize the titles? That would help a lot! Zora 20:16, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Titles Sorted

I have sorted them all. Its cool being Wikipedian.. Zaidi 09:08, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Imam Husayn Shrine

Zaidi, I removed the shrine chronology from the Husayn article. First of all, it was a copyright violation. It was taken directly from one or the other of several Shi'a websites that feature it. Second, that's not really information about Husayn, but about the Imam Husayn Shrine. I don't think we have an article about that shrine, so you should start it and add the chronology -- but rephrased, so that it isn't a copyright violation. If you could find a picture that ISN'T a copyvio, that would be good too. Zora 09:50, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] VFD

The article, Misconceptions about the Shi'a, has been nominated for deletion. Take a look: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Misconceptions about the Shi'a.--Khalid! 13:21, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Misconceptions about the Shi'a

Even though the afd did not show any consencus for merge, the admin has decided that the arguments for merge where better, and has decided that the article should be merged in the already to big Shi'a Islam article, something that make no sense at all. I protested and he answered See it and make your voice heard here: Talk:Misconceptions about the Shi'a

[edit] Nishan Haydar

are you sure it is named after Imam Ali? and do you have the story online? or do you have the address of the official webiste of the Pakistani military?. 129. 02:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] OpenIslampedia

Salams/Greetings,

As a member of the Wikipedia community who has contributed to articles related to Islam, I thought you might be interested in a project I am trying to get going: OpenIslampedia. Please visit the site for more information.

[edit] Abbas ibn Ali

Good luck for developing the family information of Hazrat Abbas ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib. Most people get confused between Hazrat Abbas (brother of Imam Hussain AS and son of Hazrat Imam Ali AS) and Abbas ibn Abd-al-Muttalib (The uncle of Prophet Muhammad SAW and Imam Ali AS). That’s the reason I took of the family section because it was giving the family information of Abbas ibn Abd-al-Muttalib (The uncle of Prophet Muhammad SAW and Imam Ali AS) not the information of Hazrat Abbas (brother of Imam Hussain AS and son of Hazrat Imam Ali AS). I didn’t want non-Muslims to get confused when they read the article. Since you are saying that you have some books backing you up then, I want you to try and put the title of the book and the name of the author that wrote the book, so other people can trust the information that you are providing is accurate. Thank You Salman

Hello! Can you contribute to the Urdu Wikibook (in Wikibooks) Please?

Thanks and Successfully!!!

[edit] Habib Bank and Bank Al-Habib

Thanks for sorting that out! I was not sure when I was formating the Banks of Pakistan articles. I think there was a link of the Habib Bank in the Bank Al-Habib article so I thought it might be the same bank.

Also, according to your user page your based in Karachi. I was hoping if you can take some pics of banks in Karachi so we can add them to the different bank article e.g. Habib Bank, MCB, MyBank Ltd etc. Also the pic you took of Bank Al-Habib Link at night doesnt seem to be of good quality, if you have a better pic please upload it.

Many Thanks -- Fast track 18 September, 2006

[edit] Flag with Border

Hi Zaidi,

I have now added the flag with a border, as you requested. Feel free to use it.

Thanks -- Fast track 21 September 2006

[edit] About your edit of Bank AL Habib

Indeed Bank AL Habib has a lot of advertisement like elements. Please also see the talk page of the respective page. You can refer to Citibank to see a good example. If you keep on removing the tag I added before ad elements are removed, it is considered vanalism and I may have to take action to stop that. Thanks for your edits with Wikipedia and hoping to see a lot of productive contributions from you. --Sechzehn (talk · contribs) 11:35, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:1-link.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:1-link.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:1-link.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:1-link.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 16:32, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Abbas ibn Obaidullah

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Abbas ibn Obaidullah, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. 172.132.175.217 18:19, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

I very strongly recommend that you add some context to this and the other articles in the series to keep people from doing this, The minimum is dates in AD and AH, the family and its significance--a sentence or so word do, & could be repeated on each, / and learn how to use the succession box when appropriate; this stuff is important, so please dont ignore it and let the articles get deleted.

[edit] October , 2007

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to bank articles, you will be blocked from editing.

The rate a bank pays on investments is not encyclopedic information, nor is the type of Mastercards it issues. Do not add such information to wikipedia articles. That's for the bank web site, and WP gives a single external link to it. that's all that is necessary or appropriate.

Additionally, we do not use flag icons to show locations of branches, nor the logos of the various bank services, nor a description of the meaning of the images in the banks own logo. All that is non encyclopedic information also, and counts as advertising here. DGG (talk) 09:33, 8 October 2007 (UTC) As for the flags, I find I did not correctly interpret the present (disputed) state of policy on this, and I have restores them. My apologies.DGG (talk) 02:07, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Bankalhabib.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bankalhabib.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:53, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
