The verse of Wilayah

(
)

Created by Saff V. (talk). Self-nominated at 13:41, 29 July 2015 (UTC).

  • Article was created 27 July and nominated 29 July — article is New. It is also Long enough at (by my count) 2,490 characters.
  • There is a minor issue with the sentence "Then the prophet saw this or heard of it, a passage of the Quran was sent down upon him (5:55) showing that Ali was to prophet Muhammad as Aaron was to Moses." which has 4 sources cited to it, but of them, only one makes the Aaron-Ali comparison; it should probably be converted to a direct quote rather than the very weak paraphrase it is currently. The other three citations can be bumped earlier in the sentence to clarify what they substantiate.
  • "The status and meaning of this event is a matter of discussion amongst scholars of Islam." does not appear to be supported by the citation given, though it's possible it's just over my head.
  • Only the first half of "Sunni and Shia scholars agree that the verse was narrated in honour of Ali but there are differing interpretations of Imamat and Willayah." is supported by the referenced text.
  • The other inline citations seem to be fine; however, there seem to be statements which should have sources cited but do not, such as "In Islamic text and Quran, master and friend are appropriate mean[ing]s for Wali." So, overall, i would call this an edge case on being Within policy for citations.
  • Hook 1 is under 150 characters, but should probably be rewritten as "... that after revealing the verse of Wilayah, the Prophet said to Ali: "You are to me like Aaron was to Moses, except that there are no prophets after me?" Unfortunately, the last clause of that hook is not supported by any citations in the article.
  • ALT1 lacks those problems and is even shorter, but is not attention-grabbing, particularly to readers unfamiliar with Islam. The hooks pass on Format but need help with Content.
  • I'm new here (this is my first review) but as far as I can tell no QPQ has been done.

Incidentally, I'm willing to make most or all of the edits the article and hook need to pass muster. (Fixing up articles I come upon at random is what I do around here.) As I understand it, that would mean another reviewer would need to approve the nomination if/when it's ready, but that should probably happen anyway since I'm a n00b at this. —

  • In Incident of Ali giving Zakat while in Ruku section, all citation were used in the text. I put each of them in its place.
  • According to
    WP:SYNTHESIS
    and just summarized some part of reference and found the source of difference.
  • Sunni and Shia scholars approve that the verse is about Ali and also both of them narrated in their books that Ali was the only person who paid charity (zakat) while bowing in prayer. Furthermore,
    Tafsir al-Thalabi, narrated the story of this verse from Abu Dharr al-Ghifari. Also, Many of Sunnis scholars have narrated that the cause of Revelation of this verse is Ali, such as: Tafsir Kashaf Zimakhshari, Tafsir Tabari (volume 4, section 6, page 289), Tafsir Qartabi, Tafsir Fakhr Razi (volume12, page 28), Tafsir ibn Kathir (volume 3, page 129), Tafsir Nasafi, and etc. Therefore, issue of discussion between Muslim scholars is about choose Imam and Wali and is not about the story of the verse.Saff V.

        • Did I take over the review? I was just noting an objection and then noting that it had been taken care of.
          That said, if you need me to look the thing over instead of the other guy, I can. — LlywelynII 23:50, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
          • Well,

            • No problem, but—if
              Also,—and I just noticed this by accident,—there's a history of back-and-forth edits already about POV and propaganda issues, so before I OK this, I'll send a message to the complainer's talk page to let me know if he sees any problems with the current version of the page.

              Those're the only major issue left with the running text, so once that's fixed with a cite or removal, I'll go ahead and look at the rest of the reviewy stuff.

  • Dear LlywelynII, thanks for your contributions in the article. You added one citation need tag in the article, I found one source for the tag. Is it valid?Saff V. (talk) 10:17, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
  • fact}} tag is talking about. It's ok, though: that's a minor point and not related to the hook. We removed the claim that Ali & the Beggar appear in the Quran and the guy who complained about Shia bias earlier looked through and said it's neutral enough now. Those were the only major issues so I'll go ahead and finish up. — LlywelynII
