2) Quoting from Jesus in Heaven on Earth ...."translation into English from Urdu translation from Persian Original 'Ikmal ud din ...." give an impression as if the book "Ikmal ud din " was originally in Persin. It is in Arabic , all else are translations.
3) Incorrect sentence:
...head to the West and his face to the East ...(incorrect) “He then stretched his legs towards the West and head towards the East and died”. (Shaikh Al-Said-us-Sadiq, Kamal-ud-Din, p.359)
“He laid himself with his head towards the East and stretched his legs towards the West”.( Ibn-i-Muhammad Hadi Muhammad Ismail, Ainul- Hayat, Vol. 2, Ch. 2 : 177-178.) Dr Muhammad Ali (talk) 11:24, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
Dr Ali, 1). thanks for picking up the Saja-Safa typo, I have corrected link to Rasail Ikhwan al-Safa.
Re 2). You're certain Khwaja translated from Arabic? Norbert Klatt implies Khwaja Nazir Ahmad translated from Urdu. Anyway, it's not a big issue. As regards 3). the translations:
B. "He then stretched his legs towards the West and head towards the East and died” Jesus in heaven on earth - Page 362 Khwaja Nazir Ahmad 1952
Even though there are only cosmetic differences I think it would be better to retain the independent Arabic translation, so if you don't mind I have restored 3). the standard English translation. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:57, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
