Firstly {{u|Tmason101}}, I agree with you that the Qur'an does not strictly say that the Earth is flat, but a problem is not every person who identifies himself as a Muslim will believe everything that the Qur'an says, then publishes books or pieces of information about his POV, which then could be treated as [[WP:Reliable sources]] in Wikipedia, but this problem is not unique to Muslims. For instance, you both probably know that any kind of violence is forbidden in [[Buddhism]], but obviously, the [[Samurai]] warriors of Japan, or [[Shaolin Kung Fu|Shaolin martial artists]] of China would not see it that way, or wouldn't like to see it that way, and since [[WP:RS]] have been published about them, Wikipedia would value them no less than what original Buddhist texts say. As for Muslims, if Muslims had strictly obeyed the Qur'an, then sects or movements like [[Wahhabism]] or [[Twelvers|Twelver]] [[Shia Islam|Shi'ism]] wouldn't exist in the first place, would they? And {{u|VenusFeuerFalle}}, you're a [[Gnosticism|gnostic]]-[[Panentheism|panantheist]], [[Liberalism and progressivism within Islam|liberal]], [[Sufism|Sufi]]-[[Sunni Islam|Sunni]] [[Mysticism|mystic]], right?

Mosque images

Hello. Why are you removing the images in all those mosque articles? Gogolwold (talk) 14:22, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gogolwold Because these are public buildings that were built less than 50 years ago, see this for more details. Leo1pard (talk) 16:47, 21 January 2020 (UTC); edited 17:39, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So at the risk of what about, why are there photos in the Burj Khalifa article? Or Louvre Abu Dhabi. Or Sheikh Zayed Mosque?Gogolwold (talk) 18:46, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Gogolwold, read the licence in File:Burj_Khalifa.jpg. The photos are in English Wikipedia and not allowed to be in commons and there is a permission from the author.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 18:53, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A conversation to get out of certain disputes that we found ourselves in

السلام عليكم،

Firstly Tmason101, I agree with you that the Qur'an does not strictly say that the Earth is flat, but a problem is not every person who identifies himself as a Muslim will believe everything that the Qur'an says, then publishes books or pieces of information about his POV, which then could be treated as WP:Reliable sources in Wikipedia, but this problem is not unique to Muslims. For instance, you both probably know that any kind of violence is forbidden in Buddhism, but obviously, the Samurai warriors of Japan, or Shaolin martial artists of China would not see it that way, or wouldn't like to see it that way, and since WP:RS have been published about them, Wikipedia would value them no less than what original Buddhist texts say. As for Muslims, if Muslims had strictly obeyed the Qur'an, then sects or movements like Wahhabism or Twelver Shi'ism wouldn't exist in the first place, would they?

And VenusFeuerFalle, you're a gnostic-panantheist, liberal, Sufi-Sunni mystic, right? Leo1pard (talk) 10:00, 23 June 2020 (UTC) edited 10:01, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
