Unclear how this essaylike piece warrants a standalone article. If not deleted, could be well integrated into the Islam page. nearlyevil 665 18:33, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The topic is highly notable as there are many books about it. For example, see Knowledge Triumphant: The Concept of Knowledge in Medieval Islam. Andrew🐉(talk) 18:54, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify The topic is notable but this treatment of it is poor. It needs thorough sourcing in RIS rather than the Quran or it is just opinion or OR. Mccapra (talk) 20:04, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify Right now purely WP:OR in Essay Style. Has some potential but currently definitely not ready for mainspace. CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:35, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify I reckon the topic being notable. I've personally discourses & works on it by the likes of Manazir Ahsan Gilani, Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi, Rasheed Ahmad Jalandhari and various others. Topic has a merit. ─ The Aafī on Mobile ^{^(talk)} 22:16, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify: I'm the nominator and I support a draftify for the text to be fundamentally rewritten. nearlyevil 665 12:06, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: In what seems like an attempt to save the page from being sent to draftspace the author has copy pasted entire paragraphs from other Wikipedia articles, and potentially sources outside of Wikipedia as well (I haven't checked if all content comes from other wiki pages). Votes above might need a reevaluation. nearlyevil 665 18:33, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes now it’s just a gigantic ramble about nothing with loads of imported sources. As TheAafi says the topic is definitely notable but the article creator is getting into a mess. I still think draftify is the answer. If the creator can’t produce a decent article on this topic perhaps someone else will. Mccapra (talk) 21:25, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mccapra, I must remember Iqbal for saying "Cosmos and life are one, the world is one and same, The tale of old and new is merely false and lame. That ken is vision dim, In which the wise manʹs lore, And sight that Moses viewed, Keep apart and merge no more." ─ The Aafī ^{^(talk)} 01:11, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
