Muslims in Poland and Eastern Europe: Widening the European Discourse on Islam is a reliable source

McKhan the book mentions aicp.org in one footnote. To say that it cites it extensively is untrue. Furthermore, it does not do so for the claim that Al-Harari was a muhaddith.

Also you mischaracterized my edit in the explanation of your edit. I removed the word "renowned" and only cited that Al-Harari was a muhaddith.

I am reverting your edit. Please do not remove reliably sourced information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZaynfromNY (talkcontribs) 18:51, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the opportunity to discuss your edit on the Talk Page. I was a student in Kiev, Ukraine at the Institute for Foreign Languages in the late 80s and cognizant of the Ahbash's network with-in Ukraine and surrounding countries. Having said that the author is directly quoting from the biography (Биография муфтия Украины шейха Ахмеда Тамима) of a Lebanese Shaykh or Mufti Ahmad Tamim, that Tamim "has the permission (ijaza) to translate Sufi tariqas of Rifa’iyya, Qadiriyya and Naqshbandiyya (at least of the two branches, in particular – Naqshbandiyya­Mujaddidiyya of Shaykh Ahmad Zulfiqar (Zulfiqar 2007: 185), hadiths of Zafar ‘Ali al­Nu’mani Ridawi and some other permissions on translating the Islamic sacred texts – from his teacher, the renowned muhaddith Abd Allah al­Harari alHabashi primarily." I don't see any independent reference next to muhaddith. Do you? (Thank you for not adding renowned next to muhaddith with your edit.). For now, I will go ahead and simply fix your reference format and leave the word muhaddith and revert the changes which I made with my previous edit. Thank you.

I think that works for now as well. ZaynfromNY (talk) 06:22, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
