No sources, means your opinion means nothing.

The Tunisia of Ahmad Bey, 1837-1855, by Leon Carl Brown, page 29 states, "Husayn bin Ali was half Greek and half Tunisian....
A History of the Maghrib in the Islamic Period', by Jamil M. Abun-Nasr, page 173 states, "He was an indigenized "Turk" of Greek origins, who had a Tunisian mother...."
A History of the Colonization of Africa by Alien Races, by Harry H. Johnston, page 21, says nothing about Husayn bin Ali.

So... if the Arabic name is just Husayn... and the French name is just Hussein... and the Tunisian form of al- is el-... wtf did the "Al-" in this guy's article name come from? Shouldn't this just be at the Tunisian form of Husayn + I + of Tunis? — LlywelynII 22:25, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
