Malik ibn al-Nadr : Wikipedia is WP:NOTGENEALOGY .  WP:BEFORE shows no indication whatsoever of historical importance.  Notability is also WP:NOTINHERITED , but even if it were, this subject is 14 generations away from Muhammad.

Goes for Al-Nadr ibn Kinanah , his equally non-notable father, too.  ~~ AirshipJungleman29 ( talk ) 23:31, 12 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete .  Being a distant ancestor of someone notable does not equate to notability.  FatCat96 ( talk ) 23:48, 12 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comments: Family tree of Muhammad is a potential redirect page Comments similar to those above about notability could be made about Jesus’s ancestors, however articles about minor Biblical figures are usually retained in AfDs (sometimes “keep”, sometimes “no consensus”).  — A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count ) 00:23, 13 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I could go for it as a potential redirect (it borders on clutter, but redirects *are* cheap, and it'd make it easier for someone to rebuild the article if it ever acquires any sort of actual notability).  Regarding minor Biblical figures, I can't say I know much about that.  I would definitely still disagree with keeping a Bible figure of similar notability, but at the very least with a lot of obscure Biblical figures, I imagine there's been extensive, citable theological research about them (if not, then again I'd heavily disagree with keeping them on notability grounds).  With this one, it's  1) some random person fourteen times removed from Muhammad  2) whose only source is a non-profit that  3) frankly doesn't even seem to mention him one time, let alone in any detail.  Truthfully, I have no idea why the creator of these (I'll note previously deleted) articles even used this source when it doesn't mention the relevant subjects.  Update: found him in another chapter.  He's dedicated approximately 10 words in this entire thing.  TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 04:11, 13 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I’m not Muslim; I hope we’ll get Muslims joining this discussion.  As I understand it, Muhammad was created before other humans and then his Nūr was implanted in Adam .  Adam in Islam is a bigger deal than in Judaism; he’s a prophet and not just some schmuck who ate the wrong apple.  Muhammad’s nūr was carried down from Adam through multiple descendants to Muhammad.  So Malik is important - not just some guy but the carrier of Muhammad’s nūr.  However, even if Malik’s important, is he notable if we don’t find something comprehensive written about him?  I’m no scholar; this is just what I’ve found since deleting the speedy tag.  — A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count ) 04:41, 13 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ A. B. : , all figures of ancestor line of Muhammad are (not very, but average) a little bit important issues in Islamic studies, see my comment below, and the term nur is risky to use in case of Muhammad because of the important islamic basic ideology of Shirk (Islam) , because calling him God's light (Nur of Allah, sometime being extreme and too much liberal in emotion) is an extremely controversial issue, because it can associate him in the part and power of God in Islam or Allah, which is prohibited in Islam as Shirk (Islam) , you can study it on Sufi–Salafi relations , also search the topic in google, many contents related to it are available in english.  202.134.8.130 ( talk ) Keep , ar wikipedia has an entry ar:مالك بن النضر with 6 more language entries.  If مالك بن النضر is searched in google, a lot of important entries are found in google and google books.  As a family ancestor of Muhammad, an important figure.  Suggest to verily keep and improve the article, google translate can be used to translate the contents found in arabic while searching in google, in arabic, google translate really works nice.  Btw, I added the article to the respective interwikilink of the rest 6s.  The most important islamic academic database maqtaba shamila ( ar:المكتبة الشاملة ) has also 2 entries when searched in google ( see here ).  And for help, if anyone wants to learn Arabic they can follow 3 minute lessons of lesson b's of this video series on youtube.  And to know Muhammad's life, english translation of Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum is suggested, available in google as free pdf.  202.134.8.130 ( talk ) 14:52, 13 September 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per  202.134.8.130.  Thanks for explaining this to us!  It was fascinating to read about this last night.  —- A. B.
