You seem to have missed one of the main Grand Mufti's of Jerusalem who is Saad Al Din Al Alami, please insert (Comment inserted by 195.229.241.181)
- Sorry, I do not know anything about him; why don´t you insert the information instead? Regards, Huldra 12:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed
It is not clear that the office of "Grand Mufti" existed prior to its being "invented" in 1921 by Herbert Samuel, British High Commissioner of Palestine.[1] If that is the case then it should be noted in the article and everyone listed before 1921 should come off the list. Neither of the two outside sources currently cited in the article is about the office of Grand Mufti per se and they give little or no history of the office. The SPME/Media Line cite[2] is okay as far as it goes but I doubt whether it meets WP:RS. The Nation article[3] does not support the statement it is cited in support of. To wit, "The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem is the Sunni Muslim cleric in charge of Jerusalem's Islamic holy places, including the Al-Aqsa Mosque." The Nation article says: "The cleric in charge of the holy places, Sheik Ikrima Sabri, is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, one of the most influential religious leaders in Palestine." A is B does not necessarily mean B is A. In other words, the 'cleric in charge of the holy places is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem' does not mean that 'Grand Mufti of Jerusalem is always or usually the cleric in charge of the holy places'. I happen to believe that is probably the case but this is an encyclopedia and we need sources to that effect and I don't have any and neither does this article, at present. --DieWeisseRose (talk) 03:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
