Who said that Waraqah ibn Nawfal was Nestorian?! What is the reference? That claim has been deleted from the Arabic version since there is no proof of it. --Islami 00:51, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Someone said: "However, there is no evidence suggesting that Waraqah ibn Nawful became a muslim". That is not true. Waraqah declared that he accepted Muhammad as the prophet which means be became a Muslim. --Islamic 13:29, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Non Sira

Waraqah has only been mentioned in Sira books. There are no other references to him by any other historians. Hence, a "Non Sira" section is only a fiction and should not be added here.
