Religious meaning?

[edit]

@Alarichall, Dbachmann, and Al Ameer son: hi. The article mentions "rāwiya ('transmitter')".

Are both rāwi and rāwiya used in religious contexts? I found "rāwī" used in an academic paper to indicate a transmitter, or "traditionist" of hadith and specifically Israiliya: Mostafa, Heba (2017): From the Dome of the Chain to Miḥrāb Dāʾūd: The Transformation of an Umayyad Commemorative Site at the Haram al-Sharif in Jerusalem www.jstor.org/stable/26551692.

@Arminden: I do not know. Will look into it and try to expand this week. —Al Ameer (talk) 13:26, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
