Different explanations[edit]

In editing the article, shouldn't we:

A. Include various/different explanations, as opposed to just deleting the previous explanation for the phrase as was done by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/85.231.154.30? I'm not sure if we want just a single explanation for the phrase. I would like to include the explanation from ar-Razi as well as others.

B. Or if you think there is only ONE explanation then as I understand it, understanding Quranic terminology (Word of Allah) can only be done through taking the root of the derivative verbs and explain these derivatives in the shade of the root, as is done in the classical technique. These roots can only be explained by their occurance elsewhere in the Quran, as opposed to using a dictionary of the Arabic language (which is constantly evolving and changing) or expounding upon a scholar's opinion who has not used the classical technique. I'm unaware of whether or not ar-Razi used this classical technique.

C In addition, we can include a blurb about the source of this term (Quranic) and HOW the revelation is to be defined?

I think that this wiki entry could/should be greatly expanded.Furtfurt (talk) 21:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Subhan'AllahrSubhan Allah – This was recently renamed without consensus, and then the undiscussed move was changed back again, but with a small error --- the addition of an unncessary "r" at the end of the word "Allah". I have tried to correct this, but am unable to do so. (NOTE: Although "Subhan'Allah" was the article's title before the undiscussed move, in fact "Subhan Allah" is by far the most commonly accepted and most prevalent transliteration of this Arabic expression). Thank you. --Relisted. walk victor falk talk 00:34, 24 May 2014 (UTC)Akhooha (talk) 19:55, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Wikipedia tries to avoid the apostraphe in Arabic translations. -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) 05:53, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

Subhan Allah is the same as Tasbih; Subhanah, Yusabbihu, Sabbaha - just conjugations from a root. No need for a separate article.--130.88.103.117 (talk) 13:04, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
