Teleportation in Islam

Reads like a jaw-dropping piece of original research. Pecher 21:10, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Ignorance is a harmful thing, Pecher. I took the tag off. It's best that you first learn what it is before slapping tags and calling it original research.--Zereshk 21:22, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Afd templates should never be removed, and personal attacks, like "Ignorance is a harmful thing, Pecher", should never be made. Pecher 21:26, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
Your putting an Afd tag on the article was illegal to begin with. It doesnt fall within any of the guidelines given by WP:DP. I repeat, first know what the article is about before slapping tags on them.--Zereshk 21:42, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep but add citations wherever possible. That it is strange to non islamic eyes does not mean it should be deleted. It meets all criteria for an article here. I think it would be excellent were the nominator to withdraw after re-reading the article. Fiddle Faddle 00:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom unless sourced. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 00:45, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep but do some work on finding sources that are checkable by the majority of readers (this being the English Misplaced Pages). This is "tayy al-ard" (literally "folding up of the earth"). Spelling variations in the transliteration make it hard to Google, but a few sources can be found by Googling "tayy al-ard" or "tayy al-ardh" (see also Google Books ). It'd be worth mentioning the Sufi equivalent, "tayy al-makan" = "folding space" (I assume one of the many Arabic influences behind Herbert's Dune). Tearlach 02:08, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
What do you know, it was Muslims that were first with the time-space continuem after all :P --Striver 02:21, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
