Done. The file name is Al-Bari-page.png . Do you have a link to the Discord? The Discord would be the best way to discuss such things imo.[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 17:04, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi ASmith. I'd be interested in joining the Discord server, but I don't have a link. Can you send one to the email address I registered with (to keep it discreet)? Thanks.
 
And thanks for uploading the image.

== Request to create an article ==
 
Hello. I would like to create an article on Spinning Wheel. Regarding the propaganda claim that Islamic science invented the spinning wheel. I have gathered many source that expose this claim. Can you start a blank article or a sandbox? I am also not able to make a sandbox. [[User:Guillotino|Guillotino]] ([[User talk:Guillotino|talk]]) 18:11, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 
:Hi [[User:Guillotino|Guillotino]]. Thank you for your idea, but after discussion with out team we came to the conclusion that this does not fit our scope. Please see our page [[WikiIslam:Scope and Article Relevance]]. This is a subject that would be better discussed on our Discord I think, do you have a link?--[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 06:44, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
:No I dont have any Discord link. Can you give it? [[User:Guillotino|Guillotino]] ([[User talk:Guillotino|talk]]) 20:40, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
 
Can you create an article for Historical Errors? There are many errors. [[User:Guillotino|Guillotino]] ([[User talk:Guillotino|talk]]) 08:59, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 
You can find the article here [[Historical Errors in the Qur'an]]. Thanks!--[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 20:52, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
:We actually already have a section on historical errors in the scientific errors in the Quran page, so in that case this would lead to a lot duplication. I think it has always worked well on the scientific errors page because people refer to it for all the strong Quranic factual errors in one convenient page (whether natural world or history). Regarding the one about the Kaaba as a place of safety that was deleted, I think you were probably in any case right to remove it for others reasons, which is that one of the verses quoted, Q. 5:97 says "Allah made the Ka'ba, the Sacred House, an asylum of security [haram, forbidden] for men, as also the Sacred Months". Of course, no-one would consider this as a prophecy that the sacred months would never be violated, since that was already happening, so similarly with the Kaaba, Muslims would just say this was one of its appointed purposes, not a promise of divine protection nor a prophecy.[[User:Lightyears|Lightyears]] ([[User talk:Lightyears|talk]]) 21:48, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 
::I know it's there, but I think it might be useful to move it out to another page. That article is already big enough. I think the the best course is this: the historical errors should be summarized on the scientific errors page, and then a redirect should be placed to the historical errors page. That is the general Wikipedia standard operating procedure, I think it would fit here.--[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 00:12, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
 
:::Specifically I think we'd leave a few important examples of historical errors on the scientific errors page along w a summary of the section and then link at the top to the new page where we could proceed to list say dozens of historical errors. [[User:IbnPinker|IbnPinker]] ([[User talk:IbnPinker|talk]]) 00:17, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
:::Pending any other arguments I'll go ahead and implement this tomorrow. [[User:IbnPinker|IbnPinker]] ([[User talk:IbnPinker|talk]]) 00:19, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
::::That sounds a good approach. If I may recommend which ones to move from (rather than having also on) the sci errors page to the new historical errors page, it'd be the less interesting or famous ones which a visitor on the fence might more easily rationalise away as a mere absense of evidence thing or alternative meaning apologetics: Samaritans in ancient Egypt, John the Baptist's original name; Supernatural destruction of cities; Humans lived hundreds of years, Ancient mosque in Jerusalem. That would leave ones that people often mention as effecting them plus one or two that are quite new and need good exposure: Wall of iron; Mary part of the trinity; Mary and Miriam (popular and significant, though somewhat divides academics); Ezra; David invented coats of mail (very strong but quite new, needs more exposure); crucifixions in ancient Egypt (ditto); Singular Pharaoh; The three Noah's flood sections (a major topic - possibly could become even more concise on this page. The oven boiled is a pretty strong new point that needs the exposure). It's so useful to be able to just share one link rather than two for all types of factual errors (only a small percentage of people would click through to the main historical errors page). I do so regularly, as do countless others, so I'm glad the historical stuff is not being moved completely.[[User:Lightyears|Lightyears]] ([[User talk:Lightyears|talk]]) 10:24, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
::::: Great points you made; implemented the change as you suggested. The pages can evolve on their own now and if we keep around 10 solid ones on the scientific errors page, that should suffice the sharing-one-link purpose.

==Hadith templates guide==
Hi, I replaced a couple of recent hard coded hadith refs with the templates. There is a page which details how to cite the various alternative hadith referencing systems available on quranx (such as the Dar-us-Salam system) using the templates. I can never remember which page it is at first so here's the link https://wikiislam.net/wiki/WikiIslam:Source_Editing#Referencing_Hadith
It seems there are lots of legacy al-Tirmidhi hard coded refs around the site (often with sunnah.com's erroneous book numbers) but it would take a long time to replace those with the templates. [[User:Lightyears|Lightyears]] ([[User talk:Lightyears|talk]]) 00:47, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 
Thank you! Which pages had the hard-coded hadith references?--[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 01:12, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
:No prob :) It was [[Scientific_Errors_in_the_Hadith]] It had a couple of new direct links to quranx and sunnah.com in order to link Ibn Majah and an Abu Dawud hadith using the Dar-us-Salam ref system (since the default USC index only has half the hadiths for that collection). Both can be linked using the templates so I changed those to illustrate. There are a dozen or so links to al Tirmidhi hadiths on sunnah.com still on the page and more throughout the site, especially the QHS pages (probably other hadith collections too besides Tirmidhi).  [[User:Lightyears|Lightyears]] ([[User talk:Lightyears|talk]]) 01:21, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 
== New article ==
 
You created a link in the [[Slavery in Islamic Law]] article to the Wikipedia article that has the url https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_al-Qibtiyya for, "Maria the Copt" but I believe you can create an article here on wikiIslam itself using the Quotations in Arabic from that Wikipedia article. I also observed that the [[Slavery in Islamic Law]] article is not online yet. Please do the needful. Thanks! -[[User:Raman|Raman]] ([[User talk:Raman|talk]]) 19:40, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
== Iddah article ==
[https://www.iium.edu.my/deed/lawbase/risalah_maliki/book33.html This] may be interesting for you!-[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]] ([[User talk:Mushrik|talk]]) 21:54, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
 
Thanks for the link to the article @[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]]. The 'Iddah in Li'an is missing in our article. But I want to first write down a separate article upon Li'an, and then add the 'Iddah in Li'an in the 'Iddah article.  [[User:Lehrasap|Lehrasap]] ([[User talk:Lehrasap|talk]]) 09:38, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
== New article ==
I want to create a new article, so please create a draft page I can use. Thanks!-[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]] ([[User talk:Mushrik|talk]]) 18:26, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
 
@ [[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]], I am also relatively new here. I have learnt that admins will soon create a separate sandbox with your name, where you could write your articles. Once you complete your article, then admins will create the new draft page and transfer your article there. In the meantime, you could create your article in the common [https://wikiislam.net/wiki/WikiIslam:Sandbox Sandbox] (as I did in my early days), and then notify the admins. [[User:Lehrasap|Lehrasap]] ([[User talk:Lehrasap|talk]]) 20:34, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
:@[[User:Lehrasap|Lehrasap]], It says, "There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, or search the related logs, but you do not have permission to create this page." I am unable to create any Sandbox, whatever the combination.[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]] ([[User talk:Mushrik|talk]]) 01:55, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
::[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]] I have created a sandbox for you here [[User:Mushrik/Sandbox]]--[[User:Asmith|Asmith]] ([[User talk:Asmith|talk]]) 03:57, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
:::Thanks!-[[User:Mushrik|Mushrik]] ([[User talk:Mushrik|talk]]) 17:41, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 
== Possibly Admins don't get the Notifications ==
I completed the first drafts of two more articles, and want the feedback from the admins:</br>
1. [https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Lehrasap/Sandbox_1 Remarriage to Ex-Spouse after the Divorce]</br>
2. [https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Lehrasap/Sandbox_3 Blasphemy laws and the insult of Non-Muslims in Quran/Hadith]</br>
