Talk:Hisham Kabbani

message: Aside from the obvious linguistic errors, it seems this article has been edited in order to represent the view of somebody who is biased with regards to this character and his associates:
"HIs association with a notorius charlatan like Mr. Nazim al-Qubrusi however prevents him from being taken seriously by the overwhelming majority of Muslims. That is really a pity since - differently from Nazim - Hisham Kabbani is learnt in Islam."
"For more than fifty years he has been a disciple of the very controversial charlatan Nazim al-Qubrusi, whose fake claims of leadership of the Naqshbandi Order were refuted by the most outstanding Naqshbandi Shaykhs of our time. Hisham Kabbani's reputation is negatively affected by his connection to a person who is known to most of Muslims as a liar and an impostor."
"...opened thirteen so-called Sufi outreach centers, focused on spreading a New-Age-oriented, fake version fo Sufism in order to attact hippies, pop stars, etc."
"His connection to Nazim however prevent most of moderate Muslims to cooperate with him."
According to the rules for biographies, all unsourced controversial material must be removed immediately. Therefore I'll take out the above quoted lines since I think it is clear to even one who does not know of Hisham Kabbani that it is potentially slanderous.

message: Has the so-called majority in Islam lost any kind of sensorium for Sainthood? Have they indeed degenerated to the level of robots, that, although claiming to represent the Sunna, seem to have forgotten about the glorious mysticism around the prophet Muhammad s. a. w. s.? They claim to follow what in fact they have lost out of sight!
In that way they hardly differ from the Western propagators of 'enlightenment' and 'reason'. Instead of supporting the most truthful way of Islam in all its beauty and full dimension, they present it as some more or less meaningless thing. Have they never thought about, why they so miserably fail in attracting spiritual seekers of the West? There is no juice emanating from them. They believe the letter is theirs, and yet they miss actual noor! So how can haqq be on their side, if they are grey like ash? - One has to personally meet spiritual figures such as Sheikh Hisham Kabbani and Grandsheikh Nazim Qubrusi in order to realize the difference between talkers and Saints! Unless one is totally brainwashed or explicitely evil, one must sense in one's heart a quality of supreme holiness, love and nobility being transmitted from them onto their surrounding! - Assalaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatu! --Ahmad Jamal as Saif 12:05, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

message: There is an article, As-Sayyid Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani Al Haqqani Al Rabbani, which appears to reference this same individual, Hisham Kabbani. Both articles reference a Lebanese birth and leadership in the same and/or similar organizations. The two articles should be merged. I attempted to do a redirect to the As-Sayyid article, only to find that the redirect already lead to the Hisham version. There's good content in both, so I would recommend that the two articles be Merged. Best, ZZ  Claims ~ Evidence  14:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Because they are causing a Checkwiki error #70: "ISBN with wrong length", I removed the ISBN from these entries:

* Love of Auliya and their help for true sufi ISBN 23-2323934905
I have tried unsuccessfully to locate the correct ISBNs on the Internet. In fact, the only google hit on the titles is this article.  Bibliographical information such as the publisher's name might help to find the correct ISBN. Knife-in-the-drawer (talk) 03:03, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
