Untitled

I am still editing this article and it should not be deleted because it is a biography a prominent Muslim scholar.

Real name

His real name is available from: "The Quest for the Historical Muhammad", Prometheus Books, 2000, p. 172 f.St.Trond (talk) 14:36, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

POV

Removed "The Prophet", and "PBUH" a few times, added POV tag. Still needs to be NPOV'ed. ---Benne ['bɛnə] _(talk) 21:53, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My opinion: the article is not really neutral. The author talks of the legends as if he himself was a witness. Such a form of expression is appropriate for a fairytail. The article should be changed in a way that garuantees that it becomes clear that what is told is first of all a legend.

Cleanup, tone

I cleaned up this article a little, but there are a few problems still:

It sounds like a story, not an encyclopedia article.
Spelling of the subject is inconsistent - Maaz or Muadh?
Academic sources are needed. --Amir E. Aharoni 08:47, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Abraham

This parallels a similar Jewish Medrash about Abraham. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolf2191 (talk • contribs) 16:01, 17 September 2007 (UTC) I have heard many descriptions of the sahaba; however, it is very rare that specific citations are given along with their physical descriptions or examples of their character. This article sounds more opinionated than factual. It is not even fit for academic or conversational scrutiny based off of the lack of sources cited. j.rasuwl@hotmail.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.129.18.166 (talk) 04:27, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
