Move - Da'i
The right title for this article is Da'i. Caller to Islam makes no sense. Alternatively, we can merge this article into Dawah. --Bluerain talk 06:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


 * "Caller to Islam" is a contextual translation. It may not be the best as article title, but it's not true that it "makes no sense"[sic]... AnonMoos 12:17, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Can you imagine anyone wanting information on da'is searching for 'callers to Islam'? If a translation has to be used, then maybe something like an 'Islamic/Muslim missionary' would make more sense, though I don't see why 'Da'i' itself cannot be used? --Bluerain talk 16:55, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Since there weren't any more replies, and considering the low activity on this page, there wasn't much reason for me to expecting more, I've renamed the article to Da'i. Whether this shoud be merged into Dawah is debabtable, for which I've added a merge tag to the page. --Bluerain talk 07:43, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Merge - Dawah
Since a da'i is just a person who does dawah, and since there isn't much information over here, I think its best we merge this article into Dawah. Any comments on this? --Bluerain talk 04:09, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

PS: I've started this discussion on the talk page of the Dawah article. Pls post your comments over there so that discussion can be carried out at one place. Thanks. --Bluerain talk 04:11, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
