Talk:Yusuf al-Qaradawi

message: This paragraph was recently added to the introduction. I modified the end of the paragraph which was clearly POV ("wow effect", "definitely", if citation, should be in quotes). In fact, I'm not sure the paragraph itself should stay: it's badly written (.. as it's to modernized .. ??)  and the essential information is already available in the previous paragraph where it's said that al-Qaradawi served as consultant scholar for an epic movie about the Prophet. Someone else before me tried to remove the entire paragraph before being told off for vandalism. I believe it would be good to have someone dedicated to this page and aware of WP rules to have a look.  Thibaut Lienart (talk) 19:18, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

message: I did a minor edit to the part where it said he describes Shi'a as liars and treacherous. The reference was a MEMRI translation  of a poem the Sheikh had posted up on his website . However, the translation was inaccurate as the poem mentions the Batiniya (also known Hashshashin by Europeans) as being treacherous and not the Shia sect as a whole. The Hashshashin, according to the Wiki article, are a small part of Shia who had allied with the crusaders during that era against Muslims. Also according to the reference of Sheikh Yusif describing Shia as liars , he explicitly uses the word 'mobtadi'oon' which in Arabic means deviating from the correct path rather than lying.

message: I have removed the Pokemon fatwa as the reference could not be found on the CNN page or any other news page. The only thing I found was a BBC report about Saudi banning Pokemon but nothing to do with Sheikh Yusif. 
Also the views held Saudi clerics does not accurately reflect Sheikh Yusif's opinion on the matter. In an email fatwa, -I presume- Sheikh Yusif is quoted to say "As for some words which people claim that the program contains, like a statement 'I'm a Jew' or 'Be a Jew', and so on, this still remains controversial, as some Japanese have denied that, so we cannot make any judgment on something as controversial as this."

message: I changed 
Qaradawi was denied entry to Britain because of a fatwa which he gave stating that small amounts of alcohol were acceptable to Muslims.
to:
Qaradawi issued a fatwa in recent months stating that the consumption of small amounts of alcohol (<0.5% concentration) was acceptable for Muslims.
and discovered afterwards that a similar edit had already been made and reverted. The cited BBC article states:
Yusuf al-Qaradawi's fatwa says a level of 0.5% is allowed, whereas most Muslims would say alcohol of any quantity is banned.
Sheikh Qaradawi was recently refused entry to Britain as the UK government said his views could spark violence. 
The article could be read to imply the two are connected, but unless I'm seriously mistaken that isn't the case. The article on his VISA refusal starts:
The controversial Muslim cleric Yusuf al-Qaradawi has been refused a visa to visit Britain.
The Home Office said the UK would not tolerate the presence of those who seek to justify acts of terrorist violence.

message: By the way, what type of FGM Qaradawi said he prefers? If the following, 
Type I, "clitoridotomy" or "hoodectomy" (also sunna circumcision, after Islamic tradition) is the most limited and involves the removal or splitting of the clitoral hood. This type of female circumcision is most comparable to male circumcision. When practiced for non-religious reasons, it is usually an elective surgery intended to enhance the sexual sensitivity of the clitoris, and considered only in cases where the hood is overgrown or cannot be retracted.
Type I circumcisions (for sexual reasons) are openly available in the USA"
If even the US hasn't banned Type I, and if that's the one that Qaradawi prefers, how does that make him a "dark force"? Or is the US also a dark force? OneGuy 09:45, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Qaradawi never used the 'scientific/medical' terminology (as 'Type I' or 'Type II'). However, he used quotes advocating it and putting a limit (not removing entire organs). Therefore, the most plausible interpretation (which I checked informally with a few academic sources) is that he prefers partial removal. Of course, as there has been sufficient public outrage about such a statement, it's now up to Qaradawi himself to clarify his point of view.  --Rudi Dierick 11:35, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: English is not my first language, and I might make a mistake here, but my understanding of the English word "modern" is that it is a value-laden word, that means more than just "being alive today", or "living in the modern age". To say that a scholar/preacher is modern, might in my understanding also imply that he is something like "up-to-date" or something opposite to "traditional". His opponents might not necessarily agree, that he and his views and beliefs are very modern. -- Karl Meier 16:56, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

text: Dear Gren: if the only reason for labelling him as 'modern' is that he lives in the modern age, shouldn't one add this label to ALL still living persons? of course, that does not mmake any sense at all as it does not add any relevant 'specific' information. It would just be adding the most general statement that plies literally to all living persons. So therefor, it's probably highly necessary to remove that utterly redundant label. And if you want to explicitiely differentiate him from the classical theologians that lived centuries ago, maybe better use 'living', or just leave it with his year of birth explicitely saying it already. --Rudi Dierick 11:27, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

1. not donate organs to "apostates," ie, Muslims who leave the faith, for the are deserving of death.  He also says Muslims should give organs to Muslims over non-Muslims and offers weak and misinterpreted Quranic evidence
"By the same token, it is not permissible to donate it to an apostate as he is no more than a traitor to his religion and his people and thus deserves killing. "

“whoever finds it serving the interest of his daughters should do it, and I personally support this under the current circumstances in the modern world.”

3. force women to wear the hijab
“It is unanimously agreed upon among Muslim scholars that it is not lawful for a Muslim woman to uncover any part of her body other than the face and hands (and the feet according to some schools of jurisprudence). Hence, it is unlawful for a woman to reveal her hair, or arms, or chest or legs before non-mahram men. Wearing clothes that reveal such parts of a woman’s body is completely forbidden. A Muslim husband is to order his wife to wear hijab.”

For the time being, it may make things easier if we can get all the quotations and personal views into one section and then decide what to narrow down in that one section.

thread_title: Highly amusing vandalism

message: No one has responded yet in regard to fixing up this article, so I figured i'd take the initiative of suggesting how this article could be trimmed down.  My first suggestion involves the creation/consolidation of two new sections: "Views" and "Controversy and Criticism".
For the section on his views, I suggest we move the following sections/subsections in:
*His views on Sufism
*His Acceptance of the Ashari school
*New initiatives
*Opinion on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
*Suicide bombings
*Opinion on the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict
*Qaradawi on Arab reform
*Boycott fatwa
Now, I am not suggesting that this be the final version because simply moving the sections would still leave it bloated.  I am just making this suggestion to get all of the sections about his views into one place.  The same goes for the section on controversy and criticism, for which I suggest we consolidate the following sections:
*Qaradawi criticised by conservative Muslims
*Shaikh Ibn Uthaimeen and Shaikh Muqbil bin Haadee on Qardawi
*Qaradawi seen from a democratic perspective
*Qaradawi on the Danish Cartoon Controversy
*Qaradawi on democracy in the Muslim World
*Qaradawi on Homosexuality
*Qaradawi on Terrorism
*Response to Muslim criticism
*Entry into western countries
*Fatwa controversy with MEMRI
For the section on his religious edicts, I suggest it actually be deleted as not only does it simply restate information already mentioned in the article, but it is also unreferenced; simply putting up a link to his site doesn't actually support the statements in the section.
In regard to the section on his popularity, I suggest that we leave it as is.
I am brining this here because I am looking for some feedback and, ideally, others who are willing to help me on this task.  Once we get past this hump and find an agreed upon version of the article I think the next discussion should be addressing the article's length and the excess of quotes.

thread_title:  Alcohol Fatwa 

message: In the Terrorism section, the author has discussed Qaradawi's views on killing Muslim and non-Muslim civilians. As evident from one of the quotes, Qaradawi does not favor such killings in normal, out-of-war circumstances. However, the issue here is: what if some Muslims are taken hostages or used as Human Shields. In this case, Qaradawi thinks:
"... killing innocent Muslims, being used as human shields by the enemy, is permissible. He considers the sacrifice of a few Muslims, in order to save the entire Muslim community, as a legitimate tactic."
The author(s) of the article write later in at the end of the Terrorism section: 
"However, the statements made by al-Qaradhawi are not true to the ethics of Islamic military jurisprudence. The killing of innocents, regardless their beliefs, is prohibited in Islamic law. Therefore, sacrificing the lives of few Muslims is prohibited as well as the killing of non-Muslims civilans. Hence, al-Qaradhawi's ideology is incorrect to the Islamic principles."
I have added a [citation needed] note here twice. Because there isn't any citation to show that the Islamic military jurisprudence is against killing of Muslims who are being used as Human Shields. Remember, we are not talking about Islamic jurisprudence about killing of Muslims in general circumstances. So there needs to be a citation with respect to the special circumstances discussed here, i.e. when being used as Human Shield.
Actually, sometime in history, it happened that a non-Muslim force attacked Muslims (probably their city or country) and used some Muslim hostages as Human Shields. At that time, battles were fought through swords and forces attacked each other using a human wave attack. So the non-Muslims forced the Muslim hostages to walk ahead of their front line, so that Muslim archers will not attack them with arrows, fearing that the arrows would kill the Muslim hostages walking ahead of the enemies. 
To tackle this situation, Muslims scholars had to come up with something. Otherwise, there would be many problems:
1)all the archers would become useless, 2) enemies will reach Muslims without being hurt, 3) more enemies would take Muslim hostages and this practice would become a norm.
Hence, the scholars gave this ruling: It is permissible to kill innocent Muslims, if they are used as Human Shields. However, the condition was that when Muslim archers throw arrows at the enemies (who have Muslims in front of them), the archers will make their intentions (in their heart) to kill the non-Muslim forces behind the Muslims hostages. In this situation, if Muslims are hurt or killed, the archers would not be liable or blamed. Otherwise, enemies would infiltrate Muslim forces and would kill (or take hostage) the whole city, leave alone the initial Muslim hostages that were used as Human Shields.
Since I haven't got a citation for it yet, I haven't deleted the paragraph from the original article. But I will try to get the reference, although it would probably be in Arabic books. Affanlaghari (talk) 09:32, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

But, getting back to the main issue, MEMRI's clip has been cited by a number of other news outlets (such as the Jerusalem Post), some of which have been cited as additional references (i.e. MEMRI is not the only source cited). Also, if you have concerns that the translation is inaccurate or that the clip is somehow taken out of context, perhaps there are sources that support your claim (for the record, I have searched for sources that claim this clip is misleading, but I have been unable to locate any).

replies: text: It seems fine to me. Since this section is now based on secondary sources and not on the analysis of a Wiki editor, the issue of WP:OR has been resolved. Let's hope that certain other editors (I won't name names) are willing to accept this version so we can move on.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 22:09, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for your feedback and I think so too. But I have just had to revert the same edit which violates the aforementioned policies. Pray786 (talk) 08:17, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

text:  This is full of errors. The article from Islamonline has no evidence whatsoever that a panel was involved or that Qaradawi headed it - the ONLY evidence is that Kamal Badr was the sole author. Your version clearly takes Badr's words and attributes them to Qaradawi's - while at the same time hiding the only excerpt that reports on Qaradawi's opinion. It's misleading to place this current version as his views. The full picture should be given.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frankakapta (talk • contribs) 03:52, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

text:  I'll remind you again of Wikipedia's policy on WP:OR but you either seemed determined to ignore them. If you want to cite a secondary source to support your above argument, then feel free too. Unfortunately, your own analysis and explanation of this issue is original research, which is not allowed in Wikipedia. If you want to add additional material that is sourced from the IslamOnline article  (which is a secondary source), this is acceptable. However, your own analysis of the primary source, regardless of how accurate you think it may be, is not unacceptable under Wikipedia guidelines.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 04:26, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text:  Frankakapta, you are really not getting it, are you? These are your claims. Your content/edit is not acceptable under the current circumstances because they breach the policies already cited to you many times. You are refusing to read and understand these. Fine, but you will not add this content. Your truth is irrelevant, unless you can find an reliable source (NOT onislam) that corroborates your analysis. This is not a personal blog/website where you can write in this manner. What you are trying to say is already in the text. Both sides are covered. There is a reference list so readers can click on them for further reading. So frankly, I don't see a problem, other than you are trying to push a particular view, because that - in your opinion - is the truth and view of Shaykh al-Qaradawi. You must respect the editing policies. Otherwise what you are doing is a reportable matter and people can be barred from editing altogether, if they persist at their behavior. Just a friendly caution. Find a better source and return to the discussion and lets talk about it. We are trying to help you.  Pray786 (talk) 08:12, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

message: At the end of the introductory section, the paragraph on al-Qaradawi’s consultancy on a film about prophet Muhammad should be amended to say that no information has been released on the movie since 2015. Indeed, the three sources cited all date back to 2015 and there hasn’t been any other anglophone media coverage since, according to a search I just did on Google News.
Therefore the following change should be made to the text :
« It is expected to be aired in 2018. »
should be changed to:
« Although originally expected to air in 2018, no information has been released on the film since 2015. »
(as a matter of style, another change should be made :
« The film is to be financed by Qatar and will be supervised by al-Qaradawi. »
should be changed to 
« The film is to be financed by Qatar with a provisional budget of US$1 billion and supervised by al-Qaradawi. »
and the last sentence « The budget on this film is US$1 billion. » should be deleted)

message: Boycotting Israeli and American Goods Became a “Fareeda” on All Muslims
(Fatwa by Syaikh DR. Yousef Al-Qaradawi)
Please read carefully, reflect, and act.
On Sunday 8th of October 2000 AlJazeera News Network aired a Program inviting Dr. Yousef Al-Qaradawi. The subject of the program was about what is going on today in Palestine and the “Jihad Fareeda”. For those of you who don’t know Dr. Yousef, he is a very well known and established Islamic Figure and scholar who is known to be very moderate and respectfully knowledgeable.
Dr. Yousef Issued a Fatwa on air that boycotting Israeli and American goods became a “Fareeda” on all Muslims all over the world. He said that each Dollar we pay for a can of CocaCola for example becomes a bullet in the American/Israeli war machine that is directed at us.
Dr. Yousef said that it is “Haram” not to do this. We are spending our money everyday in Macdonalds, KFC, Burger King, etc. without thinking for a moment where will this money go. In My opinion, every one of us is responsible for applying this in his home and life style. Look at the Americans who wanted to Veto a UN decision to condemn the Israeli actions in Palestine! If those where peacekeepers as they claim would they do that. Not to mention that this UN resolution was not going to name countries by name!!!! What a joke. At the end the US refrained from voting!!! YA ALLAH !!!
People, don’t you think ? Don’t you feel pain and sorrow any more? Don’t you feel the bitterness the Arab nation is into? The cheapest blood is ours! we are the test arena for there weapons and bullets and technology. This war machinery is enforced by our money in the consumerism they pushed us in. I ask you in the name of Allah, Muslims and Christians, I ask you in the name of the thousands who died on the hands of those terrorists in 1948, in 1967, in 1973, in Qana, in dir Yassin, in Bahr ElBakar, in Gazza, in ElKudos. I ask you in the name of the brave people who died for our dignity in a time when we have become more like statues. I ask you in the name of the child Mohamed El-Dorrah, who died in his father’s lap by a bullet you and me paid for. What have we become ? We have eyes that we don’t see with anymore. We have ears that we don’t hear with anymore.
We have hearts that doesn’t feel pain any more. They have made mutants out of us by turning us into blind consumers that pay money for their war machinery to terrorize the Arab and Islamic world. Boycott them NOW !! People, this life is not the end of the road. There will come a day that we will be asked in front of a mighty god, who will put us face to face with those of us who died while we pay our money for their killers. What will we say to them ? Will we say “Sorry, but your blood was cheaper than the Ketchup we spill on our MacDonald’s sandwich” !!!
It’s now or never !! And for those of you how are living on their lands. The doctors of you who are curing their diseased. Why are you there? Because you make more money ? because life there is more  ignifying? Think about it? Think about what you will answer when the day of judgment comes.
The Arab and Islamic nations need us to put our hands together and to become stronger. Come back to us. Come mend our wounded. Come build our economies instead of doing it for the enemy. I mean not to offend anyone but it’s the bitter truth for all of us. Whoever wants to shut his eyes and ears will one day wake up when its too late and find out that all the money and omfort he collected in his life is no more than dust in front of God!
Allahom Inny Ballaghet. Allahom Fashahad. GOD, Be Witness on Mohamed’s Ummah in the day they sold their Lands, their Lives, their dignity, and their brothers and sisters and bought every thing that is cheap. I Ask you in the name of Allah to forward this message to everyone you know.

message: At 19:42 on 12 July 2017, someone (a member of the Muslim Brotherhood?) cleaned al-Qaradawi's reputation by deleting information about al-Qaradawi's historical support for Female Genital Mutilation.  Instead, they replaced the paragraph with:
The editor left an unreliable citation of a Muslim Brotherhood website. 
I urge an administrator to replace the above paragraph with something like this:
I added the final sentence because I have heard from Professor Tariq Ramadan that in 2017, al-Qaradawi edited his book "The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam" to reflect his change of mind, opining that FGM is forbidden in Islam.  I cannot find a citation for it, but perhaps someone can provide a citation.
