From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
Few lead sentences would be useful. --Bhadani 16:23, 23 June 2006 (UTC) i thought it gave good information i learned alot from this article It would be good if this page was written by someone who understood the idea of 'simple English' as well as they understand Islam. — This unsigned comment was added by 82.41.246.130 (talk • changes).
In my opinion, this article is biased. I understand that this Wiki needs to keep things simple, but put simply, I don't think many Imams or scholars would agree with such a definition of Jihad (for example). It seems to be weighted towards an Islamic point of view, especially with the "last religion revealed by Allah". This sort of thing isn't on the Christianity or Hinduism pages. 222.153.37.125 07:16, 7 August 2006 (UTC)(Lord Patrick on the English Wikipedia)

Plus, is there a chance that anyone is allowed to make an information box on the right-hand-side of the page? Let me know. - Qasamaan 20:11, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, since I did not get a reply, I might add a template for Islam asap, but I promise to make everything simple English. I can still make templates, right? That is, as long as they are not supposed to be system files for Wikipedia. - Qasamaan 11:45, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
[change] Not simple enough?
The part about the five pillars seems really complicated. I think it sould be made a bit more clear. It might even be confusing for some who do speak English well. In fact, the entire article seems a little more complecated than most Simple English articles. --71.167.181.62 16:46, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[change] Misleading statements
"Islam is now the largest religion in the world with 1.3 billion followers" is an incorrect statement. It should be "Islam has more followers than Roman Catholicism with 1.3 billion followers"
