Lake Zamkaft

I cannot find a single source, reliable or otherwise, that mentions "Lake Zamkaft". Even the solitary source cited in the article (which is a dead link to an unreliable source) doesn't mention it. I'm leaning towards "deliberate hoax" on this one. 〜 Festucalex  •  talk  16:38, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment. Perhaps it is not supposed to be a physical place. I posted a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Islam. Perhaps someone who knows more about Islam will be able to clarify this. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 17:27, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I am a Hafiz, and yet I have never heard of anything even close to this. I hope someone from the wikiproject knows something about it. If it isn't a hoax, it's probably some poorly-attested thing from an obscure Sufi tariqa. 〜 Festucalex  •  talk  17:47, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree that this is a hoax. Article body mentions a body of water, using some "Barak", flying... none of these things are mentioned at Isra' and Mi'raj. Can't find sources either. Snowmanonahoe (talk &middot; contribs &middot; typos) 17:31, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete: This article is a hoax. Hoaxes aren't allowed on Wikipedia at all. CastJared (talk) 19:02, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete I have been hearing traditional stories of Isra and Mi'raj from religious scholars since my childhood days and I have never come across this name. I tried to find an Urdu-language equivalent but miserably failed. I am not sure if anything exists in Arabic language. fwiw, this does not meet the criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia. If anything helpful comes up, I would support a redirect to Isra' and Mi'raj as an ATD. Best, ─ The Aafī   (talk)  04:31, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I can easily tell you that "Zamkaft" (زَمْكَفْتْ؟؟؟؟؟) isn't Arabic. 〜 Festucalex  •  talk  09:53, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Festucalex, I am aware of that much Arabic and have studied it to that level. I am talking about that my searches don't bring any result but I am not sure either of something existing on this topic. I am not either saying the word is an Arabic one but I mean to say "the coverage about it". There's apparently nothing that I could find. ─ The Aafī on Mobile   (talk)|undefined  10:49, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
