Salam

I want to add some references to Imam Ali article. I become glad if you help me with this. There is some problem about pictures like this [1] . As I know drawing the portrait(Shamayel) wasn't common in Muslim society until Mongols and Safavid's. So all of the pictures like this give misinformation and we shouldn't use them. --Sa.vakilian 02:23, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please look at this article and check my editions.--Sa.vakilian 03:08, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I scanned the talk page of that article. That's terrible. You always have editorial war and somebody does authoritative edits. But the article is very weak. There isn't reffrence for most of the article. It is weak and it is defective. Why this article should be so terrible although most of the Muslims accepts Ali's position even Tabari has written a book about Ghadir!!!--Sa.vakilian 06:22, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yeah, i know. I was very active on that article for a while, but i quited it. Maybe ill return to it. Regarding the picture, do you have any reference for that? --Striver 15:26, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't any pictures from Imams. You want reference for what?--Sa.vakilian 18:24, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

maybe references for "As I know drawing the portrait(Shamayel) wasn't common in Muslim society until Mongols and Safavid's. " ? --Striver 00:51, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is debate on Hadith of Ghadir Khumm in the Talk:Ali. Please come and write your idea there.--Sa.vakilian 07:49, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bro, i am on a break, so don't count on me for a while.--Striver 11:59, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We can use Nahj al Balagha[edit]

We can use Ali's quotations to complete Ali. For example we can use " Sermon of ash-Shiqshiqiyyah" to complete Ali's life after Rasoolallah.[2]. Fortunately this site debates about the trustworthy and validity of sermons. If you agree, I can say each sermon or letter is suitable for which issue.--Sa.vakilian 12:31, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Abdullah ibn Abbas[edit]

Subject raised on talk page, time to take the "lier, sinful, treacherous and dishonest" hadith to its full lenght. Time for a full-scale justification of it, aimed at a future inclusion in all relevant articles. --Striver 07:02, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Muawiyah_I[edit]

Is this accurate? --Striver 01:00, 8 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yazid I[edit]

Dont have time to follow up on this --Striver 01:09, 8 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hujr ibn Adi[edit]

Just created it --Striver 05:07, 22 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Malik bin Nuwaira[edit]

Should be added --AhmadAudi a sahabi killed by Khalid bin Al walid by the orders of Abu Bakr.

Look here: Malik ibn Nuwayra. We tend to write "ibn" rather than" "bin". Take a look here for a list of Sahaba. Good to see you work :) --Striver 15:20, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
