Challenging sentence

@GorgeCustersSabre: thanks for your efforts to copy editing the article but about this sentence "In his letter, Ali asked the people of Egypt to follow the direction of Malik, whom he described as being far from weakness, mistake and laziness." I prefer to remove it. I campare this two sources (1 and 2) a part of the adventure has been missed! Imam wrote two letter, one for Malic and another for other commander and the sentence that you nominated it is seen in the letter that Imam wrote to another commander, but the exact name of the commander is unknown. So this sentence is not referred to people. Saff V. (talk) 06:14, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
