Suggesting article merging or deletion
[edit]Although this particular article seems comprehensive to be warranted like an encyclopedic entry, the lack of citations is an issue. I also notice there is no similar counterpart article in reference to Judaism, Christianity or the Old / New Testament (or "bible") (these three religions being similar and sometimes categorized as counterparts or cohesive evolutions in terms of religious history) with the same information "list of characters and names mentioned...". These are my points regarding deletion.
My point regarding merging is perhaps the article can be merged with any or all of these:
List of names mentioned in the Quran.
Prophets and messengers in Islam.
List of people mentioned by name in the Quran.
All of these have, you guessed it, a lack of proper and adequate references. Deleting the four may not serve the purpose of forwarding adequate and insightful information, but perhaps merging what seems to be similar articles would be a move towards progress. I'm surprised these articles have lasted so long with those tags requesting additional citations / corrections (see tag dates) since they were started. -- HafizHanif (talk) 18:57, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Multiple references for a subject
[edit]My request is that if you have more than two references in the Quran for a name, then put them together in a note, but afterwards, if they are to be repeated like that, then no need for another note which would be identical to it, like I did here. Leo1pard (talk) 05:12, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

References from the same Surah (Chapter) of the Quran
[edit]You might have noticed that I merged references from the same Surahs (Chapters) in the Qur'an. For example, I merged this[1] and this[2] into this.[3] This was to reduce the number of types of references. Leo1pard (talk) 07:14, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
Arabic
[edit]I have reduces the number of Arabic words or phrases that are no unique to this page, this was mentioned before. Leo1pard (talk) 17:47, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
Joachim is not the biblical figure corresponding to quranic Imran
[edit]Imran= biblical Amram and father of Moses, Miriam and Aaron
The name of Jesus father is neither mentioned in the Bible nor the Quran.
