The photograph is inappropriate and/or inappropriately titled; it can best be said to show "A Muezzin giving the call to prayer."—iFaqeer | Talk to me! 20:56, Oct 12, 2004 (UTC)
- Thank you to whoever changed the title.
- Isn't the word "prophetically" a POV? And/or inaccurate—the quote describes reality as it was, not what change might happen.—iFaqeer | Talk to me! 21:54, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
'clergy' isn't really appropriate either as it connotes something similar to what the christian church uses.
The Term clergy can be used for any religious or political term. The christian church isnt just the only one. That is an offensive statement —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.172.211.7 (talk) 00:57, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Recent removals
Someone had added a personal essay on popular use of the term "mullah", one that was strongly anti-Salafi and completely unreferenced. I removed it. I also removed a recently created template that is just very very bad. Too long, too detailed, completely incomprehensible to non-Muslims (and probably to many uneducated Muslims as well). Plus it completely unbalanced the formatting -- it was longer than the article! Template needs work. Zora 09:35, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Still a stub?
Feel free to disagree with me, but I dont think this is a stub any more. Should it be removed from the stubs catagory and have the stub banner at the bottom removed? -Scaeme 17/05/07
[edit] Interwiki's not visible on page
The Interwiki's not visible on this page. Any idea why? Wiki-uk (talk) 14:19, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] something's wrong with this page
The sections do not have "edit" on their top right corner.. instead, all the "edits" are clustered at the right in the section "see also", I dont know how this happened and how to correct it Lilaac (talk) 19:10, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Use as a derogatory term
This section might need expanding because it seems like people in Malta use the term "mullah" to mean... something. I honestly can't quite understand what it means but it definitely seems to be cropping up a lot regarding politics and it seems to be used in a derogatory tone. EG: http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20110516/opinion/Mullahs-in-the-control-room.365513
In trying to figure out the slang meaning I also came across this: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=mullah I have no idea if that's widespread enough in America to warrant inclusion. Omgplz (talk) 12:10, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
The word is mispelled at Mullah. It is actually Mulla. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.234.194.44 (talk) 19:37, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
