Younus, this is another article that is NOT NEUTRAL. It is adulatory of Dr. Ahmed. I imagine that there are quite a few people who DON'T like him, and have viewpoints that should be represented. Zora 11:38, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Question and a comment
My comment is that if he is a respected scholar all over the world, can you give more information about him? What is more important are his viewpoints and interpertation of Islam. Because this doesn't really tell me why he's important or respected.
My question is that, is Dr. Israr Sahib's interpertation of Islam respected by all Muslims in gerneral? or only by the certain sect that he belongs to? For example what does an average Sunni or a Shi'a consider him to be? And do they agree with his interpertations? (anybody can answer the question, if they know the answer) Also, the comment about him not being banned from Saudi Arabia, sounds quite random. I would like to request to explain why exactly someone might think that he is not allowed to enter Saudi Arabia? 'umair
[edit] Views on non-muslims and Apostasy
Somebody keeps deleting these sections despite them having verifiable references. Anyone care to explain the rationale to delete?
Ban in SA? Can someone kindly provide links on Israr's controversial "ban" (or not), in SA? Personally I don't think he is banned, but some suggest that it is actually true. Looking for links on this one. --bandishhh 22 June
[edit] Position on Shiaism
Dear Wikipedia.
The imformation you hold regarding Dr. Israr Ahmed views on shiaism are not true. He has never been involved attacking shias. I have tried to rectified it however somebody keeps on re-instating to wrong information. Therefore I would like to bring to your notice that information needs to be edited. Dr. Israr has written various books for promoting unity between shias and sunnis. He is an authentic scholar of the muslim world and his known world and his thus not a mullah. Somebody in your members list with his/her narrow vision keep on putting wrong information which is sending a message of hate which is not good.
Therefore you can carry your own research and if you find that he has extreme views against shias and be it.
Thanks
Yasir
- The someone is me. And the alleged "wrong information" comes from a reputable scholar, Vali Nasr. If you have sourced information from a reputable source contradicting Nasr we can put in something about "observers disagree over Israr Ahmed's stance on Shia," but you cannot delete sourced material as it is a violation of wikipedia policy. --BoogaLouie (talk) 17:22, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Mr.Booga for your information if a scholar who ever is Mr. Vali Nasr says something against Dr. Israr that can't be authentic because this is just his opinion regarding Dr. Israr's views. You do not seems to have any written or verbal proof in any of his speeches or books where he has been found of giving his views against shias. Therefore some scholar's views against another scholar is not something to say that this is Dr. Israr's position on Shias. However on the same token I am giving you written evidence that he has written books encourgaing the importance of unity between shias and sunnis therefore this is the biggest proof. Therefore I ask you to delete this information you are holding against him because this is completely biased.
This biggest proof you can get is either contact him via phone and ask him views and opinion on shias or email his organisation tanzeem islami and ask reponse towards his position on shiash. He is a very bold man and if he has anything to say against shias he would just simply say it. This is not good that you listening to some other scholar and asking his opinion on Dr. Israr's position you are actually stating that this is Dr. Israr's position on shias when it's not.
If Dr. Israr states himself that he hold views against shias then this is fine but he doesn't. The biggest example I can give you Is that if i hold negative views against you and you state that Mr. Yasir hold views against me then this is fine and I go and state publicy that I have negative views against Mr.Boogie then this is fine. However if Mr.X states that I hold negative views against you and you declare it as my original position then this is simply not true.
Therefore I am asking you very nicely that to delete this information because it is simply not true.Because it is just inciting negative views against a great scholar who has no aggressive views. Therefore delete this infomration, whether it's a violation of wikipedia or not I simply don't care because if are gonna hold wrong and unverified information against one indivisual I am just simple gonna keep on deleting them and you are gonna keep on editing them and we are gonna keep on going round and round in circles.
The best formula to this issue is completely delete the section of shia position. I can't stand why west and US has always been trying to cause rift between the 2 main sections of Muslims i.e, Shias and Sunnis, biggest proof is in Iraq and Iran and also in Pakistan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.231.91 (talk) 18:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Critics Section
The Critics section is in desperate need of citations and references to authentic sources since critique is always the most controversial part of an article. I suggest that some one provide references from reliable sources for each critique, because the complete section comes under "Biased opinion" as per BLP: "If someone appears to be pushing an agenda or a biased point of view, insist on reliable third-party published sources and a clear demonstration of relevance to the person's notability".Farqis 11:19, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
