his book are so
[edit]why did you Undid the revision, read the summary of his books.--Setareh1990 (talk) 10:53, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
- OK, it is clear that he is anti-Israel. Does that prove that he is anti-semitic? I guess you think it does, but I don't see anything in the summaries that proves it sufficiently for it to be asserted on Wikipedia. Also, I see nothing in those summaries that indicates Holocaust denial. In fact there is no reference to the Holocaust in those summaries. And, as I said before, the category 'anti-semitic publications' is for publications not people. Dubmill (talk) 11:05, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
- He say that the jews want to control the world and that muslims need to fight the jews, that's clearly anti-semitic... Seriously stop that..--Setareh1990 (talk) 09:45, 29 July 2015 (UTC)
US prosecutor...
[edit]The following reference talks about how a terrorist suspect in Minnesota has had her correspondence with Hosein seized. She said that correspondence helped radicalize her, and convince her to join the Taliban. A package Hosein mailed her was seized, shortly after she was arrested. So, should this reference be included here, once the terrorist suspect is convicted? She might be committed to a mental institution, rather than convinced. Then what?

According to court papers, the package had a return address bearing the name of Imran N. Hosein, a sheikh allegedly described by Hassan to law enforcement as being among the 'sources of information for the development of her religious beliefs.'

Are there other references that also suggest he is admired by terrorists? Geo Swan (talk) 22:29, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Controversy
[edit]Controversies should not be given too much disproportionate space in a biography of a living person. See WP:BLPBALANCE. I also point out that claims relying on guilt by association should be avoided, as stated by this policy. --Feitoria (talk) 12:56, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
- I moved one sentence out that wasn't controversial. The rest seem well enough supported. If reliable sources mostly focus on controversy surrounding this person, then so should this article. ~Anachronist (talk) 14:32, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Feitoria:
- Regarding my edit that I reinstated:
- Those statements that you removed, they are sourced and do not go beyond the source. It is true that in a biography of a living person you shouldn't include too much controversy - but the way to do that here is to expand the other sections and perhaps write about his extensive bibliography. I will add more to this article by listing some of his works. This should facilitate WP:BLPBALANCE. As for guilt by association, this is simply what the court papers have said - it is a primary source with no analysis. We are not accusing him of being guilty, simply stating a fact that has appeared in a reputable news article regarding him. I echo Anachronist's view that if reliable sources mostly focus on controversy, that this should be reflected in the article. ParthikS8 (talk) 18:54, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
Deletion of Content
[edit]While looking at Recent changes, I've seen a substantial amount of content being removed from the Controversy section. Not knowing the material, I held off on restoring it just yet, may want to check to see whether its legitimate or vandalism. Seems like a vandal but again, I dont know the subject matter...

Covid-19
[edit]He believes that covid 19 is made in a laboratory, that the World Health Organisation is a joke, more or less, and that there is a sionistic origin of the virus. All this according to a video from 2021 where he clearly speaks out about all this. --Mats33 (talk) 01:02, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
Denomination
[edit]Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons says "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be supported by an inline citation to a reliable, published source." IP 94.59.107.223 challenged the denomination in the infobox at 03:08, 21 August 2021, so it needs a source. @Ishan87: if you know any reliable sources for Imran N. Hosein's being Sunni, please could you add a citation to them.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:22, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
He's by default sunni dude! Clearly u r not a Muslim r y? That's y u r asking source 4 such a basic stuff! You don't ask for sources for everyone! He never said he's shia or any non-sunni group. Why don't you just mail him and find out? I've read his answers, he has said that he's general sunni, doesn't follow any specific madhab. By the way, I did not add Sunni, it was listed from the beginning. Ask for sources from the guy who removed it because he didn't show any reason for his doubts. I watch his lectures quite regularly, if he was not a sunni I would know. If you want source for every basic stuff then just remove 90% of every page. I don't understand why you're after me whenever I edit any page at all. Can't you see there are so many scammers and vandalisers who delete other people's edit for no reason? I'm trying to improve every page and always give explanation yet u r after me for no reason! Please leave alone if you can't find anybody to pick on. Ishan87 (talk) 16:36, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
Access to a source for adding to the article
[edit]If anyone has access to this particular source,
Beglerović, Samir; Sušić, Kerim (2020). "The Global World After The Pandemic: The Notion Of A Post-Virus World As Conceived By Imran Hosein And Aleksandr Dugin". Forum Bosnae (91–92). Translated by Tanović, Ulvija. Međunarodni forum Bosna: 381–396. Retrieved 2 October 2021.
then I think it would be a significant source for some of his views, especially his political views. ParthikS8 (talk) 14:48, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
