thread_title: Sufism in 21st century

message: "Sufism is generally believed to have originated among Muslims near Basra in modern Iraq, though there is a history of Sufism in Transoxania dating from shortly after the time of Muhammad."
This fact seems unexplained. As if Prophet Mohammad was not aware of gnosticism and it somehow spontaneously appeared later under the rubric of "Islam." Seyyedeh Dr. Nahid Angha, a current Sufi Master and researcher, makes the case here http://ias.org/articles/Practical_Sufism.html that the Ahle Suffa, the Companions of the Prophet who devoted themselves to inner dimensions, mystical application of Islam, were the originators and disseminators of Sufi teachings and schools. Indeed, many Tarighat of Sufism trace their lineage (silsilah) back to the Prophet's Cousin and Son in Law, Imam Ali ibn Abu Taleb.
There are many books and links on the subject of Ahle Suffa. Dr. Angha's among them.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dbross (talk • contribs) 07:27, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Openning Paragraph

message: According to Jenkins' book, "The Lost History of Christianity," the most obvious source for much of Sufism was Middle Eastern Christianity, something which history has forgotten but is the most important component of the first thousand years of Christianity.
After all, Christian monks in the Middle East were already monks, and had the habit of repeating Christian mantras in the hope of reaching a direct knowledge of God.  Sufism shows both of these, which are not native to Islam.
If Jenkins is right, and I think he is, an awful lot of books are going to need re-writing, including those by Mircea Eliade.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.9.75.13 (talk) 17:34, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Christian origins of Sufism 

message: @Dervishistan Greetings. You recently removed a passage claiming it is disproven. although most given sources are improvised, the leading source (from oxford university press isn't that bad I guess and being published 2016, not that old. the others served to explain the statement given here, but yes, it could be better not to rely on them. However, could you show the disprovement of the claiming former made. The given source "Carl W. Ernst (2003), Tasawwuf [Sufism], Encyclopedia of Islam and the Muslim World" even doesn't make such a strong statement of an alleged concens and the source given here is newer than the one you added. I would suggest to mention, that some claims exist, that Sufism was taken by Christian ascetism into Islam (even if these there just Christian cnoverts)

Talk:I Could Never Be Your Woman

message: Its a pretty good movie, and has two big stars. It even made the New York Post's "Underrated movies of the decade" list. So why did it go straight to video? Their article suggests something scandalous ("thanks to some greedy money men...") and I'd love to know more! Anyone got the behind the scene facts??
--Axcelis555 (talk) 19:24, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not that great a movie to begin with (hardly capable of holding together its three story lines: misogynistic boss, pubescent daughter, younger lover). It was quite pricey at $ 25 millions and entitled the star to 15 % of the gross revenue. Such baggage makes it hard to find a distributor willing to take the risks of a theatrical release. Direct to video also requires no expensive ad campaign.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.115.119.72 (talk) 23:24, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Why straight to video??

message: The lead of the article claimed that this was the feature film debut of Saoirse Ronan. This information was not sourced anywhere in the article (such as the Production section). WP:FILMLEAD says the lead should summarize not supplant the article. 
This claim would need to be properly sourced if it is to be included again. It seems WP:UNDUE to emphasize it in the lead, in any case, as it is only true on a minor technicality. The film Atonement was released (in Venice August 2007 and wide release) 7 September 2007. This film only received a limited release in a few European countries before Atonement. As it did not get a theatrical release in the UK or US, it is a direct to video release and to call it "feature film" is only technically true. 
I think it would be best not to include the claim at all, but if editors want to restore it then it should be reliably sourced and added to the Production section, not the lead. -- 109.76.211.227 (talk) 10:22, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ali 

message: On 5 September 1924, one Hindu shopkeeper, brother of a Dharm Sabha honcho, converted to Islam at the same mosque where incendiary speeches would be delivered four days hence. He thus became Abdul Rahman. During the riot, Rahman suggested to a fellow shopkeeper (Jai Ram), of Hindu faith, about converting to Islam only to be abused. An angry Rahman went to a friend (Spin Gul), obtained a rifle, and shot both Ram and his wife to death. Then he took hold of Ram's sons, forced them to recite the kalma, and imprisoned them in their own house!
Preliminary investigations held that Rahman's actions were driven by a failed extra-marital affair with Ram's wife but nonetheless they were enlisted as Hindu casualties of the riot! TrangaBellam (talk) 05:48, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Nagarwala case

message: This sentence is missing a word?
"Justice Jaganmohan Reddy listed four "incontrovertible facts" - one of them being the fact that Indira Gandhi did not have any account in that branch - but concluded that they were not sufficient to hold that the money belonged to her."
If she didn't have money in the branch, that fact would suggest that the money DID NOT belong to her. But that the judge felt that the money could still have been hers.
Also, this article caught my attention because I couldn't understand the opening phrase "Rs 60 lakh". Replace this with "a sizable sum of money" or something to indicate that this is an amount of Indian currency?
