  • 3) Check for accuracy of following thoroughly and update as necessary.
  • 4) Search and update any more Academic sources, if possible once again.
  • 5) @TheEagle107 do you have any more academic ref or additional text additions suggestions? or following is enough for you? Bookku (talk) 11:28, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@talk I sorry I am still unclear. Do you want me to delete the author and publisher details? I don't see anything wrong with them as they are. --15:10, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No no don't delete. As of now following format has not mentioned any supportive references for 'Abul A'la Maududi, and Fethullah Gülen'.
WP:NORN link is mentioned but it's too long to read for first time visiting RfC participating users. Mention of supportive refs or books for 'Abul A'la Maududi, and Fethullah Gülen' will be helpful, I suppose. Bookku (talk) 16:16, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Let me know if you are not able to see collapse templates. Bookku (talk) 01:53, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Primary preparation of RfC question[edit]

Proposed additions of text 1[edit]

  • In section "Islam":

Jinn have been called "an integral part" of the Muslim tradition[1] or faith,[2] "completely accepted" in official Islam;[3] prominently featured in folklore, but also taken "quite seriously" by both medieval and modern Muslim scholars,[4] who "worked out" the consequences implied by their existence -- legal status, the possible relations between them and mankind, especially in questions of marriage and property.[3]

Proposed additions of text 2[edit]

  • In section "Belief":
* Present sentence in the article for consideration here

Belief in jinn is not included among the six articles of Islamic faith, as belief in angels is. Nontheless, many Muslim scholars, including the Hanbalī scholar ibn Taymiyya and the Ẓāhirī scholar ibn Hazm, believe they are essential to the Islamic faith, since they are mentioned in the Quran.

This above present sentence is supported in the article by Ref: Nünlist, Tobias. Dämonenglaube Im Islam. Germany, Walter De Gruyter Incorporated, p.33.
Tobias Nünlist is independent RS acceptable to both side referring to two scholars Hanbalī, ibn Taymiyya in above sentence.There is no disagreement up til here.

Proposed additions of text 3[edit]

  • In section "Belief":

Openly expressing of doubt about the existence of j̲inn was not common even amidst the Muʿtazila; and among the erstwhile philosophers, al-Fārābī also, tried to skip the question with vague definitions. Ibn Sīnā was an outlier-- he outrightly rejected their existence.[1] In present-day Islam, only a "small number" believes that jinn in the Quran should be understood symbolically instead of literally.[2]

(In 1995 a Professor Nasr Abu Zayd was accused of blaspheme and apostasy, in part for his alleged disbelief in Jinn.[3] He left Egypt for exile after a joint statement calling for his killing was issued by a group of professors at al-Azhar University, the "theological centre of Egypt".)[4][5]

Proposed additions of text 4[edit]

  • In section "Prevalence of belief":

Authors and researchers of parts of the Muslim world have compared belief in jinn to that of belief in angels. Writing about Muslims in South Asia. Sarah E. Lamb and Diane P. Mines have called the belief a primary articles of faith in Islam — so that disbelief in them would be heretical;[1] Philip Hermans writes that belief in jinn in Morocco is "very much alive" and part of Islamic dogma.[2]
