Honorifics
Hello User:Faizhaider, I hope you are well. The WP:MOSISLAM guidelines state: "In keeping with the neutral nature of Wikipedia, Islamic honorifics should generally be omitted from articles (whether Arabic or English), except where they are part of quotations." See also the Manual of Style guidelines on honorifics here. That's what I've been following.
The Manual states: "In general, styles and honorifics should not be included in front of the name, but may be discussed in the article. In particular, this applies to: styles and honorifics derived from a title, position or activity, including The Most Noble, The Most Honourable, The Right Honourable, and The Honourable; styles and honorifics related to clergy and royalty, such as His Holiness and Her Majesty. Clergy should be named as described in Wikipedia:Naming conventions (clergy)."
I look forward to learning whether I am wrong (and if so, how) on these issues. Please feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken. I try not to be dogmatic. Thanks and best wishes, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 10:14, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
- Hi User:GorgeCustersSabre, I agree with not using honorofics but FYI Syed & Mir are not honorofics but are part of name e.g. my name is 'Sayed Mohammed Faiz Haider'. Also, Ayatollah & Mufti are designation and level of Islamic scholar & not mere honorofics. I hope you understand the difference between these & general Islamic honorofics e.g. Hazrat, H.P., S.A.W., etc.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haidertcs 11:38, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Hi Faiz
Hi Faiz,
Trust you are doing well. I noticed that you have uploaded picture of the seal of the Nawab of Awadh (yellow foreground and white background). I was looking out for a higher resolution image of the same for personal use. Would be great if you can direct me to one.
Thanks in advance!

Sayyid
Hi there. I just left a note at the talk page, but I wanted to make sure you saw it. I've been yanking that material from the page because it becomes the subject of these edit wars. Since it's not cited anyway, I've pulled it down until someone provides an RS to back it up. — Bdb484 (talk) 22:39, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Edits on Semitic article.
Hello, I am not the one who put the Sayyid number as 12.5 million. I have confirmed the source as not being truly reliable. But in fact Sayyid are of Semitic origins. But to my understanding and probably your understanding their has not been a count of them done worldwide unfortunately. But for now we would like to keep an accurate estimate, or in other terms a guesstimate, on terms of their population rate and growth statistics. But they do in fact have a considerable population
