Talk:Abu Haatim Tayyib Ziyauddin

Please excuse my American ignorance, but I read this entire article and I can't figure out what religion this guy is. I added the stub, but only because I don't know which specific religion he is important to. If you know please visit the religion-related stub section of the stub guide and choose a stub from there to replace mine (if his religion isn't up there, it can be added).

Well, a simple Google search cleared that up. He is apparently the religious head of an Ismaili sect known as the Alavi Bohras. I myself am a member of the Dawoodi Bohra community and the similarities between the kind of rhetoric used in this article and any Dawoodi Bohra website extolling the virtues of Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin are remarkable. Though, interestingly enough, I'd never heard of this sect before stumbling across this page... funny how that happens. Hulleye 06:49, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

The article is completely unwikipedic in style, format and substance - needs a redo. --tickle me 04:41, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

^^ Agree, there are also some arabic honorifics used, i'm removing it, but the article probably needs a lot of work and attention. I have also added an POV tag, its written from an total Ismailli pov--Khalid 14:03, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
