@Al Ameer son: The article readable prose size (5759 B) is long enough. The article is new enough. Hook's character count is within the legal limits and is cited immediately. The hook is not interesting but cited by a reliable sources (2 and 4). There is not any copyright violations. Please use his short name at the lead of the article and moved full name to the biography section. Saff V. (talk) 13:15, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

@Saff V.: Sorry didn't notice this until today. I added the QPQ and moved his genealogy (full name) to the Notes section like I've been doing with articles on his descendants (ex. Muhanna ibn Isa). If the hook isn't so good, how about this for ALT1: "... that after seeking refuge with the Arab ruler of Hillah, Fadl ibn Rabi'ah defected from him in battle to join the Seljuk army?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Al Ameer son (talk • contribs) 17:36, 17 June 2016‎ (UTC)

New reviewer needed; previous reviewer has not returned. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:09, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Second review. The article is new enough and long enough. Both hook is sourced to reliable sources. No close paraphrasing or neutrality detected. Good to go.KAVEBEAR (talk) 00:54, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
