Talk:Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a

The flag pictured is not as in the photo source.--83.52.17.239 (talk) 01:26, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Article name
An AP news article spells the subject's name as "Ahlu-sunah Wal-jamea". (At least, I believe it refers to the same group.) Is this or the current "Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a" more suitable as the name of this article? -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:47, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
 * And this article uses the spelling "Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jama". -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:36, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * The Lemma (title of the article) "Ahlu Sunna wal Jama'a" (from arabic: "Ahlu s-Sunnah wa l-Jama'a") is ok, thanks. 79.251.75.189 (talk) 18:38, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Translation
اهل السنة و الجماعة "The people of the eternal law and the community". Sunna means "prophetic tradition", generally spoken; the Sunna is the way the Prophet acted during his time on earth - written down in the Hadith and should be imitaded correctly by each Muslim (according to orthodox Islam). Jamaa = assembly, association, community. 79.251.75.189 (talk) 16:21, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Roman English spelling
Shouldn't Wikipedia use the most common spelling of this group's name? Or, if not the most common in EN, the Roman spelling the group itself identifies with? I am finding all of the following. The numbers in parentheses are the number of hits on Google when I searched today (6/5/2014).

Ahlu Sunna Wal-jamea (139,000) Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a (50,500) Ahlu Sunna Wal Jama (45,100) Ahlusunna Waljamaaca (46,400)

and there are others.
