Article on non-notable topic with no reliable sources. The only source given in the page is [1], a random website. On googling, I was unable to find any reputable sources covering the topic at all. Raziman T V (talk) 20:47, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm sorry, I deleted the "random website" referred to above, basically for the reasons given. That was before reading this discussion - I'd only come here because I was monitoring something else. - Sitush (talk) 01:26, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note Relist vote is also keep, i have at least added one additional source which is a well known book of Hadith and the book quotes both Ahadith mentioned in the article thus meets the criteria for notability and should be kept. Sajjad Altaf (talk) 07:21, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You have just added Sunan Nasa'I as a source. Do you have a Hadith number so that we can verify for ourself in one of the translations? In any case, one Hadith is only proof of existence, not of notability. -- Raziman T V (talk) 06:39, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Raziman T V, i don't know the exact Hadith numbers but they are in "Volume No. 2, Chapter: Kitab-al-Jihad, SubChapter: Ghazwatulhind", sorry i totally forgot to answer your query in a timely manner. Sajjad Altaf (talk) 17:16, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I've spent an hour or so trawling around and can find nothing of note. The two remaining citations (see my apology above) are both obscure and the work of the same pair of writers. I'm seriously wondering whether this is almost a
    WP:FRINGE thing and that this might explain the sourcing difficulties. That said, I've only been looking for sources in English. - Sitush (talk) 01:30, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

  • Note The sources given are good enough and very reputable. Two sources are given because one is an original book and the other one has English translation in it too for English readers. They go down to the chapter. Moreover a source does not have to be in English to be a valid source. It can be in any language.
