thread_title:  Al-Razi and Al-Qazwini 

message: His writings have nothing to do with Islamic teachings. But thanks to this wikipedia article, people have started quoting his fictional work as "Islamic knowledge/teachings". He was a science fiction writer. He wrote about fictional things, including off world travels. Yes, he wrote about space travel in 13th century. His book The Wonders of Creation is also a work of pure fiction. Don't mix this fiction with Islam.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.116.232.57 (talk) 14:20, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

What do you mean by "being of Arab descent doesn't make you Arab ethnically" ? that is such a nonsense, ethnicity does not change magically by just being born in a different country. Also what dose Peter the Great has to do here? His article says only his mother is of Tatar origin, a completely different case. You are confusing ethnicity with nationality.
However, if you insist on edit warring than I am deleting Persian categories from Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al‐Farisi and Abū al‐ʿUqūl since going by your logic, both were no longer "Persian" ethnically for being born in Yemen ! Frasfras17 (talk) 09:28, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Nonsense

message: Okay you want me to talk about it in the wiki page? sources for what? for him being an Arab that was written literally few lines after "Descendant of Anas bin Malik". 
Also what in god's name does a Persian mean in that context? There was no Persian empire or a Persian power that had power or identity during that era for the scientist to be a part of. He was born an Arab raised an Arab. His books were in Arabic as you can clearly see from his works listed in the very same wiki page. The land he was living in was a part of the Arab empire "The Abbasid empire". Common sense does not need a source. How about you show us your sources that made him a "Persian"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.202.89.0 (talk • contribs) 22:39, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: A number of high-quality sources are now literally quoted in the first note. Whether these sources warrant a change in the text of the article is up for debate. Though perhaps we might go for something like "Arabo-Persian" (yes, that term exists), I also think it's fine as is now. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 04:47, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
