Hara v. Harra

I think we should move the article back to "al-Harra" because all the sources spell it as such and I think the meaning of the two transliterations is different. Al-Hara sounds like "the neighborhood" while the definition of this town's name is "the Hot" hence the two r's "al-Harra." --Al Ameer son (talk) 18:49, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, and sorry for the premature moving! Yazan (talk) 18:54, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not a problem, it was a fine detail easy to miss. I'll go ahead and move it back. --Al Ameer son (talk) 19:04, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
