Islamic view of Sarah

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article violates Wikipedia:Notability policy. There is nobody named sara in the Quran nor sahih hadths. This article was created 2 days ago by a disruptive editor who is notorious for his disruptive edits. Also he uses bible verses for an article about islam as his main points of reference. There are no secondary nor tertiary references either. Someone65 (talk) 09:19, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. While the article may be poorly sourced it appears that there is some indication that there are Islamic views on Sarah. While she is not mentioned in the Qur'an it would appear that from this book review (see page 87 in the pdf) that she is mentioned in both hadith and tafsir. Generally searching for Sarah and Islam is not helpful as there are too many hits, especially for Muslim women named Sarah, but a search for Sarah, Abraham and Islam gives hits that indicate some Muslims do have views on her. I would also point out that the inclusion or deletion should not be based on a person being named in the Qur'an, nor on the fact that there may be some disagreement between Sunni or Shia. See also Articles for deletion/Islamic view of Cain and Abel. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 10:44, 21 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Note the articles creator has agreed to deletion of this here. As such I would have no objection to this being speedily redirected to Biblical figures in Islamic Tradition. Enter CBW, waits for audience applause, not a sausage. 11:19, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
