The result was delete. While the argument to transwiki is not without merit, there is not agreement on which project to send it to and there is a concern that it is copy/paste of another website. There is a clear consensus that this does not belong on Wikipedia, so I am going ahead with deletion. Willing to userfy if anyone wishes to proceed with a transwiki operation to an appropriate target. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:37, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A list of 90 (yes, 90!) Quranic prayers is not an acceptable subject for an encyclopedic article. This is nothing more than copying the prayers from a religious book. An article explaining the Du'ass with a reference to an external source would be perfectly acceptable and more in keeping with the Wikipedia style. Manway 17:12, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Transwiki to Wikisource. This would be a perfect addition to Wikisource, but this is not an encyclopaedia article. -- ShinmaWa(talk) 02:48, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. It's clearly copy paste from a book or possibly even an online discussion forum. This could almost have been speedily deleted. MezzoMezzo (talk) 06:22, 14 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete and re-do at Wikibooks. Since it contains original translation (and possibly some annotations) it would not be suitable for Wikisource. It would probably be appropriate at Wikibooks. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 00:33, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- This list is really very helpful for the Muslim community. It hasnt simply been copied or pasted . A lot of work was done to compile the list. If you let it stay on wikipedia,it will be very beneficial for the Muslims and the non-muslim community can get read it too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Islamicdua (talk • contribs) 21:32, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The current title looks to be a valid Wikipedia topic, although the current is more like a book as others have mentioned. So I would suggest a transwiki (not just a delete) and a rewrite on the topic about duaas, with references. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:48, 18 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Transwiki. This is not an encyclopedia article, it's a book. Send it to the correct website. Bearian (talk) 14:06, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- NOTE Looks like the whole 90 prayers has been copied over into Duaas as well. --Manway 15:25, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
