I suspect this article may be a Copyright violation. --Woggly 07:25, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
It definitely is a copyright violation. Looking at the current version, all but the closing sentence is directly lifted from published articles, with only minor changes.
- Paragraphs 1 to 7 -- taken from source #1 paragraphs 4 to 10
- Paragraphs 8 to 12 -- taken from source #2 paragraphs 4 to 8
- Paragraphs 13 to 18 -- taken from source #1 paragraph 11, then 20-25
- Paragraph 18 ending -- taken from source #3 paragraph 3
- Paragraph 19 -- taken from source #1 paragraph 26, except last sentence original
where the sources are :

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Muhammad Asad.jpg
Image:Muhammad Asad.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
