Talk:Hakham

Request to revert back to Hakham
This is a copy of my message to User:Sheynhertz-Unbayg: "Hi Sheynhertz: Why are you moving articles with Hebrew words around? I noticed you moved Hakham to Chakham which makes no sense, see my reasons and request for it to be moved back to Hakham at because, for example, we use this convention in the cases of Halakha, Hanukkah, Humash, Hazzan, Hivites, Horites, Hebron, Hermon, Horeb, Habakkuk, Ham, Hur, Heshbon etc. Most times, there are good reasons for the spellings as they follow an accepted convention, and it's best to leave them until you can be absolutely sure that it's safe to make changes in Hebrew-named articles. (You may also want to see some of trhe discussions taking place at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (Hebrew). Thanks for your attention.

Merge I overlooked the Hakham article when I imported the Jewish Encyclopedia article. --Rbraunwa 14:38, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Rabb as Islamic name of God
The article states: "In the Muslim world, a rabbi was often called a ḥākhām because al-Rab is one of the names of God in Islam and may have caused offense due to misunderstanding."

The Wikipedia article on Rabb states: "Ar-Rabb is not one of the 99 names (or attributes) of Allah. There seems to be some inconsistency. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Not2late (talk • contribs) 17:39, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
