Talk:Islam in Ethiopia

message: I removed a section that had some serious POV issues.  It was clearly written from a Muslim perspective, which is not neutral.  It also contained original research in regard to what the Koran does or doesn't say.  It also had irrelevent information about the Muslim world as a whole (and also didn't cite sources for that).

thread_title: POV issues

message: The article says that most Ethiopian Muslims are Sunni, yet the last paragraph talks as if Ethiopians are Sufi.  Does this mean that one can be a Sunni and also Sufi or is there a contradiction in the article? — J M Rice 15:56, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a discussion about this over at Talk:Ethiopia. The CIA data is rather unreliable in this regard. It hasn't changed in many years despite the release of new census data during that time (and it's ethnic data is also unreliable, made evident by its naming of false ethnic groups with far off numbers). — ዮም | (Yom) | Talk • contribs • Ethiopia 05:38, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sunni?  Sufi? 

message: There have been recent back and forth editing concerning which is the largest religion in Ethiopia- Christianity or Islam?  The Islamic claim cites the cia factbook and the state department for support- so why not keep this claim?

thread_title:  Largest Religion in Ethiopia? 

message: I understand there is disagreement ... BUT it is one thing to dispute the facts in the reference, but quite another thing to leave the reference in place for the CIA Factbook AND change the statistics. I have reverted the most recent set of edits that did that. DON'T do that. Proofreader77 (talk) 03:20, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Religion and the CIA Factbook

message: Some text was deleted due to PoV and/or other quality issues, but it did contain a mention of Sheikh Hussein (sp?). As of this writing there is no separate article on the subject.  A book I have, African Ark, presents it in such a way that it would seem to distinguish Islam in Ethiopia from that of other countries.  (Whether the pilgrimage to Sheikh Hussein's tomb are othodox or heterodox, I won't attempt to answer, nor would I wish to do so.) -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 21:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact, pilgrimages to tombs of local saints is very common among, especially rural, Islam in Ethiopia. I could provide some sources when I find the time. Driss 14:57, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  The pilgrimage to the tomb of Sheik Hussein has been docuemnted as an important event for many Muslim Ethiopians. No article has yet been written for this saint because no one has come forth with enough information to write more than a brief, unsatisfying stub. (I only know that he lived in the century before Imam Ahmad Gragn's jihad, & lived in what is now the Bale Zone. What he did -- besides converting at least some of the inhabitants -- I cannot say.) Anyone want to tackle this challenge? -- llywrch 18:35, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm moving the following comment from the article to the talk page. -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 15:37, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It should not have anything to do with being a member; instead it should have everything to do with citing a reliable source. If you can provide the source, then please cite it in the article (and, as the person adding the information, the onus is on you to do so). Thanks. -- Gyrofrog  (talk) 16:40, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Who is the mufti, who is the iman, where is this info, it is very poor in content, what about Eid, what about the new intergration of Eid into the ETV network or the great religious dialogues which go on in Ethiopia?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.118.152 (talk) 23:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
