Talk:Abu Ayyub al-Ansari

Huh
Hmn, the article says

in the same voice of certainty that is used for (for instance)

Nothhing's entirely certain in this world -- the universe itself may not even exist -- but given the citing in the latter passages of sources I consider likely to be accurate, I'm confident that on November 1, 1861, Frémont did indeed order Grant to embark south with his troops etc., to the degree that I'm comfortable with our stating it in the voice of certainty.

Can we say the same about Muhammed and his camel? Color me skeptical. And if we don't have sufficient proof that this actually happened, why are we stating in the voice of certainty? Just saying. Herostratus (talk) 19:45, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

Please stop
We can't keep talking about goblins, magical camels, and manna from heaven as though these things unquestionably existed. I get the concept of faith, but fantastical claims require fantastical evidence, and the Islamic revisionism I'm encountering in articles like this threatens Wikipedia's adherence to neutrality.

Tone
Irrespective of any debate about religious belief, this article warrants complete rewriting for unencyclopaedic tone.
