 * A murshid is different than a pir. A pir is necessarily fully enlightened. The murshid is often merely a teacher and does not need to be enlightened. Pipaaz (talk) 21:08, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Merge vs Deletion
I think that an article explanating this term is infornative and encyclopedic. So I think that even if the article fails notability, a redirect to another, as relevant as possible, article that offers an explanation for the term is very reasonable. Hoverfish Talk 11:44, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Why is there no AfD? This is not any cruft article to be treated so.
And by the way I do not find any AfD page where anyone can support this article. Why so? There is a timebomb on it and no way to support it? So what if I cannot find any citation. This is an informative article and other articles, like Murid depend on it. Additionally, I think that this article, and possibly several related ones, suffer from systemic bias problems.

 * I know very little about the subject, but there appears to be plenty of refs to murids and murshids in scholarly literature on Google Books, e.g. A Note on Adab in the Murshid-Murid Relationship by MOHAMMAD AJMAL. No idea if the article should be merged or improved in some other way, but certainly it should not be deleted without a proper AfD (which would include notification to the notice boards of the relevant projects, to draw more knowledgeable editors' attention to the article). -- Vmenkov (talk) 18:54, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

I have deleted the "prod" tag, as per advice in Proposed_deletion. One certainly can bring this to a normal AfD if desired. -- Vmenkov (talk) 18:56, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Vmenkov, I removed the merge tag because I would rather see this article improved than merged. So long as it will not disappear in thin air, it can still be improved. Hoverfish Talk
