Talk:Johari Abdul-Malik

Religious scholarship?
As a leader and activist in the Muslim community, shouldn't this individual have at least some exposure to Islamic scholarship? Perhaps it is simply overlooked due to the brevity of this biography? Supertouch (talk) 09:01, 3 January 2008 (UTC)SupertouchSupertouch (talk) 09:01, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Suicide Bombing quote
Removed the quote and section, it seems to me from reading the Wa. Po. article that the quote was uttered by a Mohamad Adam El Sheikh, not Mr. Abdul-Malik, and that Malik in fact opposed such bombings.

Mosque officials said sermons at Dar condemn terrorism. Sheikh, the current imam, said that suicide bombings are never legitimate in the United States, and Omeish agreed that "it's as clear as day that within the American context, it is absolutely contradictory to Islamic principles and belief."

But Palestinian suicide bombings in Israel elicit more ambivalent attitudes. Mosque spokesman Abdul-Malik said that he has condemned Palestinian suicide bombers in his own sermons and that no one criticized him for it afterward. But judging by conversations with members, the tactic generally is neither encouraged nor condemned from Dar's pulpit.

Sheikh said he tells his congregation that Islamic law does not allow suicide bombings in most instances. However, he said, "if certain Muslims are to be cornered where they cannot defend themselves, except through these kinds of means, and their local religious leaders issued fatwas to permit that, then it becomes acceptable as an exceptional rule, but should not be taken as a principle." 72.66.188.220 (talk) 19:13, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Excessive Sections
This article contains sections that appear to be excessive based on the fact that the topics are referenced from only one single article. It would be more fitting to summarize them into the parent sections to better meet Wikipedia guidelines. Coverage of a topic in only one article does not give it enough wait to warrant its own section. The following edits are proposed:
