I do not feel like the subject is notable enough to warrant a wikipedia article. I also see that the article is written just for the purpose for adding a non-notable person to Wikipedia. I vote Delete because this person does not fit the criteria for biographies about journalists. What are his works? What has he done to change the workplace, and what are his achievements. If these are found, then I will instead vote keep. Cheers, AbsoluteSpaceTime (talk) 03:13, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. The article is rambling at the moment but the lede does seem sufficient to at least assert notability: "He is one of the main founders of Al-Jazirah newspaper, and he is the first editor-in-chief of Al-Jazirah magazine". I don't speak Arabic so it's hard for me to judge the sources, but if Google Translate is to be trusted it does seem that there are multiple independent sources discussing him per WP:GNG, and seemingly there are entries for him in biographical dictionaries on Google Books. I had to fiddle with Wikidata since the two articles hadn't been linked but there's an Arabic Wikipedia article for him which has more info and mentions that he also worked as a diplomatic representative. Keeping this as "weak" anyway until a native/fluent speaker can judge the sources. —Nizolan ^{(talk · c.)} 11:12, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
