The following [[The Farewell Sermon|authentic version]] is taken from ''al-Tabari, Vol IX'', and it's important to note that it is in perfect agreement with the Qur'anic order of wife-beating in {{Quran|4|34}}. Attempts to add this authentic version next to the other two at Wikipedia, had been met with resistance.<ref>After an April 2011 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Khutbatul_Wada%27&oldid=427586954 Wikipedia discussion] concerning the lack of primary sources for the fraudulent sermons, they were finally removed from the site. But, as is often the case with Islam-related articles, the unreferenced material is constantly reinserted by Muslim editors.</ref>
