I have just removed material from this article which appears to have been very closely paraphrased from its source:
 * the arrangement of the text draws a certain distinction between the 54 supplications that comprise the main body of Al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya and the additional supplications that make up The Fifteen Whispered Prayers. The original 54 supplications show an undeniable unity of theme and style, while the latter add a certain orderliness and self-conscious artistry which may suggest the hand of an editor. The addenda are said to have been collected and added to the text by Muhammad Jamaluddin al-Makki al-Amili, known as al-Shahid al-Awwal (the 'first martyr'), the famous author of Al-Lum'ah al-Dimashqiyya (The Damascene Glitter) in jurisprudence (fiqh), who was killed in Aleppo in 1384. The Fifteen Whispered Prayers have been added to several modern editions of the Sahifa, and seem to have been brought to the attention of the main body of Shi'ites by Allamah Muhammad Baqir Majlisi author of the monumental compilation of Shi'ite hadith, Bihar al-Anwar.

 * the arrangement of the text allows us to draw a certain distinction between the fifty-four supplications which make the main body of the text and the additional supplications which make up the fourteen addenda (including the prayers for the days of the week) and the fifteen munajat or `whispered prayers'. The original fifty-four supplications show an undeniable freshness and unity of theme and style, while the latter, especially the munajat, add a certain orderliness and self-conscious artistry which may suggest the hand of an editor. The addenda are said to have been collected and added to the text by Shams al-Din Muhammad ibn Makki, known as al-Shahid al-Awwal (the `first martyr'), the famous author of Al-Lum'at al-Dimashqiyya in jurisprudence (fiqh) who was killed in Aleppo in 786/1384. The fifteen munajat have been added to several modern editions of the Sahifa and seem to have been brought to the attention of the main body of Shi'ites by `Allama Muhammad Baqir Majlisi (d. 1110/1689-9 or a year later), author of the monumental compilation of Shi'ite hadith, Bihar al-Anwar.

In light of this, I am failing this nomination. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:50, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * But this is not really a good reason to fail the nomination. It can be simply fixed. Failure of GA nomination is done when the reviewer thinks the article takes days to be fixed. Is it really that case? Mhhossein (talk) 05:36, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, yes. Having copyright problems is a quickfail criterion, meaning the nomination fails immediately. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:24, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * You are right thank you. By the way, could you please mention other problems of this article so that I fixed them before the next nomination. Mhhossein (talk) 04:09, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, to begin with, you will want to provide a problem-free Analysis section to ensure that you meet the breadth criterion. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:12, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
