Ahmad Raza Khan's scientics & Quranic approach and Earh stationary claim

In the subheading which tells about the knowledge of ahmad raza khan about physics, it is written that Islam says that the Earth is stationary while the Sun orbits it. It is utterly incorrect. Learned modern scholars like Dr. Zakir Naik and others do not interpret these verses and ahadith regarding orbital motion as they are stated in this article. So, I request you remove that part in which it is said that Earth is stationary and Sun revolves around it. Islam can never say such unscientific things. Uzisar (talk) 04:27, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

• I agree with you. The findings of Ahmed Rida Khan was controversial and unscientific and reference to his findings should be removed from this article. Majority of Muslim intellectuals do not agree with this claim.Marrigreat (talk) 14:06, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

  Majority of Muslims scholars do not interprete these verses and Hadith regarding orbital motion as stated by Ahmed Rida Khan. Science also proved that the findings of Mr. Rida are just ignorance of the truth. These claimes should be removed from the Wikipedia. 203.130.7.109 (talk) 06:05, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Links

Are any of the following directly relevant to this article? They come from a highly dubious anonymous source (Wetman 21:10, 16 January 2006 (UTC)):

These links are all links to Barelvi institutes and organisations, which is the sect/movement that Ahmad Raza Khan (RA) founded. These perhaps aren't relevant to this article but would be to the barelvi article. Tanzeel 12:22, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Imam Raza Khan and Ahmad Raza

A-salaam-o-alaikum-Rahmen-ALLAH,

Tonight, I found the Imam Raza Khan on the clean-up page and thought i would edit it. I have two new sources that you don't have (well you don't have any) I think it would be good to join the best that i have written and the whole of your site. It makes no sense to keep people going to a wrong site and being confused. join them together please brother. It serves no point to let them be seperate. Mike33 22:11, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Edited School of Thought section

I have added two references, fixed spelling, and removed some dishonest writing (i.e. writing wahhabi and linking deobandi page). Thanks Wa Salam Alaikum 58.111.113.52 08:22, 28 October 2007 (UTC) (AN-MEL)

"RESEARCH ON A'LA HAZRAT'S FAUZ-E-MOBEEN: Scientists from the Allama Iqbal Open University in Islamabad have taken a keen interest in researching A'la Hazrat's (alaihir rahmah) "Fauz-e-Mobeen" which deals with the movement of the sun and planets around the earth. At present, research is about to commence on the subject.

CHRISTIAN CONVERTS TO ISLAM AFTER READING "KANZUL IMAAN": In 1974, Dr. Hannif Faatimi of London University brought the Professor of Kuwait an English translation of "Kanzul Imaan" (A'la Hazrat's translation of the Holy Quran) for printing. Prof. Faatimi at that time had met a Christian scholar who had revealed that he was interested in reading more about Islam. Prof. Faatimi was two-minded about giving him an English copy of Kanzul Imaan. Eventually, he gave him a copy to read. The Christian scholar, after reading this translation, accepted Islam." This stuff is blatant POV violation

NPOV

This article clearly lacks sources and assumingly does not satisfy the required NPOV standards of Wikipedia. Scythian1 (talk) 05:25, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Section Criticism is once again inserted

There are many users who don't have enough temper to bear a section of criticism in this article.Why???Marrigreat (talk) 06:50, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Proof Reading

I've done an awful lot of proof reading, and I hope you lot are happy with it. If you object with my corrections: please brothers, take it from a born and bred Englishman. I've noticed that there is a glitch of some sort after the part in the article where it says "therefore disobeying the following hadith"- I hope to fix this after getting some help, and I would not like anyone to revert the changes I have made since it was strenuous work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Huss4in (talk • contribs) 09:42, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Changes Reverted

It appears as if the strenuous grammatical proof reading i've done has been reverted. Thats quite disappointing but if people prefer bad, influent grammar as a way to present to the world the founder of their religious school, thats fine by me. It seems a fellow brothers work isn't appreciated by some, which doesn't bother me since that is the reason why there is so much ignorance in that part of the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Huss4in (talk • contribs) 19:57, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
