Talk:Nabi Saeen Mosque

The article's TITLE seems to be WRONG
QUOTE FROM LEAD: The name is sometimes misunderstood as Al Nabi Sain, which means prophet Sa'in, and in Islam there is no suchprophet, but its actual name means "to the prophet we go."

OK, but then pls. change the article's title, too. The author of the remark is anonymous and highly dubious, with only this edit and maybe another one in 2006 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/87.68.49.205) and faulty English.Arminden (talk) 06:22, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
 * There seems to be confirmation here that there is no such prophet in Islam: "The origin of the name is unknown, especially since no..." (sentence is cut off). Only the Rough Guide seem sto know of a nephew of Saladin's by that name, but that might well be a factlet collected from locals, a means never to be trusted when legendary characters like Saladin & family are involved.

 * Title's fine. Nonsense isn't. It's named after the hill that it's on.


 * See the signs outside of the building. Neither the Hebrew nor Arabic has the supposed ala ("to... we go...") prefix. Seems like a folk etymology to cover up confusion regarding the actual name of the place, apparently a mangling of Isaiah. — Llywelyn II   16:42, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
