[edit]- ... that the 58th chapter of the Quran, titled "She Who Disputes", overruled Muhammad on the legal status of a woman's divorce? Source: El-Shaikh p.29
- Reviewed: Brasheedah Elohim
5x expanded by HaEr48 (talk). Self-nominated at 20:03, 17 June 2017 (UTC).
5 times expanded, cited hook, use of fair image, no problem with text but QPQ not done. RRD দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 17:08, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment This has potential, but I'm not sure I quite understand the hook. You're saying that the chapter overruled Muhammad - is that right? --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 09:41, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
- @Dweller: A Muslim would say something like God overruled Muhammad by revealing the chapter, but saying God did X based on one religion's scripture would violate WP:NPOV. So I tried to make it more neutral by saying it's the chapter (i.e. the text) which overruled Muhammad, regardless of whose words it is. What do you think? Suggestions welcome.

- That is a tough one! How about "... the 58th chapter of the Quran, explains how Muhammad's original position on the legal status of divorced women was overruled?" --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 08:21, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
I prefer the hook suggested by Dweller ("... the 58th chapter of the Quran, explains how Muhammad's original position on the legal status of divorced women was overruled?"). --TheSandDoctor (talk) 06:34, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
@TheSandDoctor: please read Wikipedia:Did you know/Reviewing guide. If you are approving a hook, you need to state that it meets the five main DYK criteria before adding the green tick. Yoninah (talk) 13:45, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
- The article has been five times expanded, the hook is indeed cited, the article itself is within policy, and QPQ has indeed been done. Worth promoting. As previously stated above, I have preference to the hook suggested by Dweller. @Yoninah: --TheSandDoctor (talk) 16:55, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
