Gilan Iraq: is a historic village, an Iraqi city known cities and landmarks in history and archeology, and just 40 kilometers, south of Baghdad

I mentioned dozens of sources and references historical, geographical and wrote Albuldanyen Arabs and it is attributed many of the flags and perhaps most notably Sheikh * Abdelkader jelly * 470 e 561 e Imam mystic and scholar Hambali, who is described as "the crown knowledgeable" and "Mohieddin" and "Baz God Ashhab" . It belongs way Qadiriyya Sufi who contributed to the preparation of a generation Saladin, who liberated Jerusalem from the Crusaders.


Abu Saleh Mr. Mohiuddin Abdul Qadir jelly Mr. Abu Saleh Musa bin Abdulla jelly bin Yahya Zahid bin Mohammed civil bin Mr. David Prince ibn Musa al-II Bin Mr. Abdullah Abu ibn Musa al-Makarem John Ben purely Mr. Abdullah Ben Mr. Hasan Muthanna ibn Mr. Imam Hassan tribe bin faithful Ali bin Abi Talib, Ms. Batoul husband Fatima daughter of the Messenger of Allah Muhammad, peace be upon him and his family and him. Between Vpinh and Fatima Zahra eleven father.


The first issues, the most important is undoubtedly those relating to sources and references that can be used within this study, and therefore the first thing we notice is that the sources and references available to us are many and scarce together, and sources, which includes early information about the character of Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly, and place of birth is Naturally sources from the sixth century AH, ie it contemporary sources to him, but on the importance of not more than the fingers of one hand.
Late sources, which are many, they spread from the seventh century until the modern era, and derives its information from sources early, classic manner, making secondary importance.

One of the most important historians top, Sam'ani: and died in 562 AH / 1160 AD in quartz. And mention Muhammad Altazfa in book necklaces gems: that Sam'ani talking about jelly in his tail Baghdad. In fact, he cites the tail of the information is traditional, it Fakih Hambali and a man devout, attributed to Tabaristan, without specifying the source Malhumich or who transferred, leaving, a big question mark about the information and that he did not contemporaries of my generation one else, and it will probably relied on Audio not the truth, especially a quartz from Baghdad.

It historians important also, Ibn al, Bakri al-Baghdadi, a contemporary of Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly (place and زمانا - Forum personally), who died after a quarter century of jelly, and the publicity his will correspond with the famous jelly, a little jelly expressly history regular in the history of kings and nations, and in a manuscript book for Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly and considered by many researchers are missing, and there is a copy in the libraries of the Sorbonne, was transferred texts Mojtzah Dr. Mustafa Jawad in his book assets history, literature, and certainly Professor French, Jacqueline Chapelle - a professor at the Sorbonne, seen by, through writing, for consideration, about the life of jelly, determines Jawzi that jelly from Mesopotamia and born in generation (Iraqi), and Ibn al occupies among historians important place, as a contemporary of Gilani, and his credibility historical much larger of those enjoyed by the later writers and died in 597 AH / 1200 AD, from being a one Aejamml, but that his book about jelly, a book in the criticism of mysticism and its people.

A large number of contemporary historians, taking Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly without elaborating placed his birth, either closely or from afar, son ether Shafi'i Ash'ari: He died in 630 AH / 1233 AD, and Shahabuddin Suhrawardi Shafei: died in 632 AH / 1234 AD. And had a nearly twenty-year-old when the death of jelly, a little jelly name in the book Awarv knowledge about the ascetic and marriage. Carpenter's son Shafei: he died in 643 AH / 1245 AD and Ibn Arabi: the famous Sufi thinker. Died in 643 AH / 1210 AD. The jelly text in Meccan conquests book, and others.
As historians layer latecomers Vohmanm:
* Noureddine Ctnovi: Egyptian reader Shafei, died in the Mamluk period in 713 AH / 1314 AD. Author of the joy of secrets and metal lights which is about the life of the jelly-class news in every sense of the word. The critique Starter late is Ibn Rajab, a book Altazfa necklaces gems is to summarize a book of joy, and the book has leaflets several a downer, and we have to achieve (as an MS), depending on the manuscript rare and unique, was criticized copied, Dr. Mustafa Jawad from the Sorbonne, mentions Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly born generation Iraq, near the cities, either in commercial bulletins leftward jelly was born in Tabrstan, with a clear frequency for any city attributes, thus demonstrating that the book had been distorted, by scribes through the ages. .

* Lama, Hanbali Ibn Taymiyyah: He died in 728 AH / 1328 AD. Golden: died in 748 AH / 1348 AD. And Ibn Kathir: died in 774 AH / 1373 AD and either Ibn Rajab: died in 795 AH / 1392 AD author tail layers Hanbali, they do not speak, for his birth, and can be used in general from their writings, but in his book Personal Sheikh jelly only, if the sources late This period is abundant, but repeats itself, just, and all who came after them, move them.

Here declare the existence, unlike in determining the birthplace of Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly, among historians, and are untrue to tell his birth in Gilan Tabrstan (traded), because most of the mentioned relied on one novel, echoed without scrutiny or investigation, and confirms attributed to (Jill Iraq) , a number of historians of them, Ibn al, and the owner of the manuscript, Mohja joy and pilgrimage tone, and mark Mustafa Jawad in his book, The Origins of history, literature, and of Hussein Ali Mahfouz, in his manuscript, for Iraq men, and Dr. Naji known, in his article Gilan Iraq and its inhabitants a manuscript When his students, Dr. humbled Almaadida, in his book Upper Mesopotamia and of Turkish, Shamsuddin Sami, in his encyclopedia, dictionary media and others and talked about Dr. Youssef Zeidan, at length, in his book, Abdul Karim jelly and Dr. Imad Abdul Salam Rauf in his article, Abdul Karim Jili , and confirm all sources that Sheikh Abdul Qadir was not interested Eduard original chapter and this is known, thus opening the door because attributed to Tabaristan, or other and Imam Abdul Qadir, did not comment on it, like placed lineage, which fits his character to some extent, to say the mark Mustafa Jawad In his comments, the book sequel complete completions, and other ...




Says geographical sapphire in the glossary countries: Generation village of acts of Baghdad under the cities after two buttons and call it a double was called son of pilgrims - Alcal - said: God damn nights Balcal - it's night defined nights, said the owner of the manuscript, Mohja joy and pilgrimage tone: The Generation village a beach Tigris the march on one of Baghdad under the towns of the following through Wasit Iraq and the Born Shaykh al-Islam Abdul Qader and her proportions, and most of its population of Kurds displaced from Greater Kurdistan, sprawling particular tribe Bashdr, and this is what MEMRI of Abbas al-Azzawi in his comments on the trip المنشي Baghdadi , and this accounts for attached Kurds, he grew up in an environment Kurdish, and, of course, this does not contradict, in any way, with ancient lineage Hassani.


The Nataath sources early whole, Paljala a percentage Gilan Iraq, it is worth mentioning that there are many areas in the world bearing the name of Gilan including: Gilan Iraq and Gilan Iran and Gilan Afghanistan and Gilan Turkey and Gilan Kosovo and Gilan Egypt, but it was he attributes to Gilan Tabrstan, hesitate to any reed them specifically he attributes, Once to odd time to Bstehr and others and from there he attributes to Kellan west or village generation, near Shahraban (MUQDADIYA - now) or agent, near Kifri, which indicates that the topic confounded originally when veterans, and browsing manuscript Date Sheikh Al-Islam Abdul Qader al-Kilani & Sons, of Droopy, familiar with the various accounts in the place of birth, with weighting clearly a novel generation of Iraq, and continues biography of Imam Abdul Qader, knows that he spent most Saahath and his early days in the generation of Iraq, It is certainly not to chance a role in it, but evidence of its close connection to this land, and confirms Mr. Alaa al-Lami in his book, Cancer Bible, quoting professor Hadi top, the word jelly, live by to Kilani, in later times, and that all sources of history, remember title (jelly) to change it, son Jawzi He presses him (as Pena), which is a generation of Iraq, and the son of ether and Ibn Kathir, Ibn Shaker and Ibn Khalkan and others, it is important that Mr. Sharaf al-Din al-Kilani in his History of the captains, confirms that he attributed to a generation of Iraq, but because he says he attributed it to spend are times long where not of his birth where, and this does not suit the research methodology is not accepted logic, and his presence in the generation signify its association اللصيق place, and Orientalist indicated Professor (Jacqueline Chapelle) a clear reference to: a novel and a clear, indicating that he was born in (Mesopotamia ), and it is here where we very clearly, that Imam Abdul Qadir, an Iraqi birth and death and this fact (_ historical geography), based on the methodology of scientific research, which is one under and adopted by a family Baghdad الكيلانية, from generation to generation.


* It is worth mentioning that the mark Salem Alusi, mentions: that former President Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr in the beginning of his reign, student (Kingdom of Iran) recovering the remains of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, being a symbol of Baghdad in its golden age, at the invitation of the late Abdul-Jabbar Jawmrd الموصللي, Minister Previous in the era of Abdul Karim Kassem, and author of the book Harun al-Rashid, but (the kingdom of Iran) abstained, and in return asked retrieve the remains of Sheikh Abdul Kader al-Kilani, being born in Gilan Iran, and then asked the president of the mark (Mustafa Jawad), a statement it responded, the late Mustafa Jawad : The sources mention that Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly, born Kellan Iran, sources depend one novel and passed without study and investigation, either right was born in a village called (generation) near cities, but untrue to being one of Iran or that his grandfather named Gilan, which confirmed mark Hussein Ali Mahfouz in Jalawla Festival held by the Union of Arab Historians Alusi was present also in 1996, and actually told Iranian state so, but the intervention of the Arab country, closed the subject.

Sheikh mudasserhaleem bein attributed as a Sufi Sheikh is baseless and incorrect. The article is POV and has arguments and statements that have no proof. 68.69.58.146 04:40, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

The Qadiri order of Sufis has him as their Murshid. There are books on Tasawwuf written by him. Why do you say that he is not a Sufi Sheikh? --Nkv 05:47, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
What happens at the tomb of nizamuddin in delhi now does not mean that nizamuddin himself endorsed that. People later on fabricate a lot of stuff, so they take him as murshid means nothing. read abdul qadir jilani's books (fatuhul Ghayb or gunitu-talibeen and like) and you will know what his aqida was. Also, there are incidents in this article without any proof. It deserves a disputed tag 68.233.38.154 11:45, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
I don't think it deserves a disputed tag. I don't know of anyone who seriously disputes that he was a Sufi. I can't read his books since I don't have copies nor do I understand the language. Perhaps you could post some links as to why he shouldn't be regarded as a Sufi? Also, perhaps it's a good idea to register a username for yourself? It helps track discussions and archive them. --Nkv 12:08, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
I have read all his books and have some with me. There is one thing for certain, he was not a Wahhabi because he never advocated suicide bombing on fellow muslims just for showing love to their prophet and his house. When Wahhabi uses the word Sufi, they mean someone who worships the grave and then claim that none of the Sufi saint was really a sufi. What a stupid claim. Hassanfarooqi 16:52, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
you dont know the whole world - not even a small part of it Killbillsbrowser 17:04, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Your ad hominem attacks are not helping at all. All I'm asking for is sources. --Nkv 17:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Ya Ghaus Al Saqlain!!

He is THE greatest of all Sufi Saints - or the "Saint of Saints" (Pir of Pirs). I don't think anyone can dispute that. His "Foot" is on the Shoulders of all other Sufi's,Auliya's- (No one can be a true auliya/pir who doesn't consider this.). He is a True Friend of Allah(SWT). Only the ignorant and arrogant cannot digest these facts.

Descendant speaks out

He was my great X grandfather. He being labeled as a Sufi isnt right. HE was muslim and never called himself as anything else. He lived his life as much as he could as the prophet lived his life. He didnt create no biddath (new false laws) and he never went to someones tomb.


lol have you read his books ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.240.72.135 (talk) 19:20, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

here are some of the books fools : http://www.al-baz.com/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.240.72.135 (talk) 19:27, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Another Jilani Descendant Speaks out

You are right my brother! Sheikh Jilani never called people to worship shrines or graves of other pious people. He was a strict Hanbali and he never intended to form a sufi order. Those who came after him made him god-like figure and called him all kind of names that fit only God, such as "Gouth al-thaqalain" (the helper of humans and jins). Also, they say about him, "Abdul Qadir al-Jilani mutasarrif bi-lakawni" (i.e. A. Q. Jilani is in control of the universes!). Such saying are absolute kufr, al-Jilani had never attributed these things to himself! Bring your proofs if you are truthful!

I don't know if you know Arabic or not but if you know, then read what Ghaus-e-Azam said in his famous Qasida Ghausia:
وَوَلاَّنِي عَلَى الأَقْطَابِ جَمْعاً
فَحُكْمِي نَافِذٌ فِي كُلِّ حَالِ
وَمَا مِنْهَا شُهُورٌ أَوْ دُهُورٌ
تَمُرُّ وَتَنْقَضِي إِلاَّ أَتَى لِي
وَتُخْبِرُنِي بِمَأ يَجْرِي وَيأْتِي
وَتُعْلِمُنِي فَأُقْصِرُ عَنْ جِدَالِ
بِلاَدُ اللَّهِ مُلْكِي تَحْتَ حُكْمِي
وَوَقْتِي قَبْلَ قَبْلِي قَدْ صَفا لِي
Shahrukh syed (talk) 21:55, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

The Nejdi Factor

Those who dispute that the Sheikh was a Sufi are a new minority sect in Islam financed by Saudi Arabian Royal family. They consider Sufism against Islam because it teaches non-violence and peace. They beleive in spreading their version of Islam thru sword and call themselves Salafies but are commonly known as Wahhabies or Nejdies (after Ibn Abdul Wahhab of Nejd). There are now two sects within this sect. One is follows the King and call itself Athari Salafi. The second follows Osama bin Ladin and is called Takfiri Salafi.

Fake descendants

Having the last name of Jilani does not make someone a descendant of the Shaikh. It just signifies that someone's ancestor has come from Jilan, or someone was a descendant of someone named Jilani. Maybe someone became a Muslim on the hand of Jilani. There are lots of Jilanies who are Shias and dead against the Shaikh. After the 1947 partition, many people changed their family name during the crossing. Even someone is a descendant of Shaikh, he can be a convert to Wahhabism. I have seen some Jilani converts to Christianity.Hassanfarooqi 16:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

It's pretty clear that both 'descendants' don't even know what a Sufi is, and just base their opinions on Wahhabi garbage that gets posted on the internet. A true Sufi is opposed to bidah just as much as any other Muslim, but Salafi blood-libel has blinded many people.

EDIT: It's also pretty clear that the 'Nejd Factor' guy doesn't know that much about Wahhabis either. Terrorism is not the goal or purpose of the Wahhabi sect, that's just what westerners think. It's more of a Protestant reform movement very similar in some ways to the one in Christianity. The terrorism is likely caused by the lack of emphasis Wahhabis place on religious authority and the revolutionary nature of the sect. Despite what it looks like now, Wahhabism is likely to become a much more liberal sect in the future, in the same way as modern-day Protestant Christians are nothing like their violent Puritan predecessors. 91.107.198.58 (talk) 21:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Very obviously you have not read the history of Nejdi/Wahhabi movement. It started out with a pact between desert bandit Mohammed Ibn Saud and the rouge sheikh Mohammed Ibn Abdul-Wahhab. This pact is known as the Pact of Two Mohammeds. This unholy alliance took over the holy land with the help of British by butchering tens of thousands of people in the holy lands, and implementing their own version of Islam. Read books like "House of Saud" etc Hassanfarooqi (talk) 17:28, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

Silly discussions

I find some of the discussions on here a little amusing - anonymous users with poor language skills claiming to be his descendants don't count as references. However, there are issues with the article. It's written from an extremely positive point of view, when it should just be neutral. Stories such as the man having a dream about Muhammad don't add anything to the article either; this is an informative biography about a historical religious figure, not his blog. In addition, there is an amount of controversy and criticism over his works and his followers and the article doesn't mention that. All articles on prominent figures, especially in the realm of organized religion, should include sections for opposing views. Despite the whining of some anonymous users - and i'm not trying to be rude, but most of what I see on this discussion page is whining - the article could use a tune-up.

Persian Empire could never include Gilan. He was always referred as GILANI, neither Persian nor Iranian. Iranian government occupied Gilan almost 500 years after his death. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.204.74.47 (talk) 15:05, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Apologies, but no Sufi or he himself indeed ever referred to him as a 'Persian', he was known as an Ajami (foreigner) by the people of Baghdad, and he spoke fluent Farsi, which let's face it, even Afghanistanis and Pakistanis, Bangladeshis and even Hindus speak quite well, doesnt make them Persian? Let's stay on topic please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.27.15.83 (talk) 11:23, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

Bad use of References

References posted one of them states a personal opinion of the author and should not be admitted, and I quote: "Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics: Volume 1. A - Art. Part 1. A - Algonquins By James Hastings, John A Selbie Published by Adamant Media Corporation, 2001. pg 10:"and he was probably of Persian origin"--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 12:12, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Claims of Origin

Many claim Abdulqadir Gilani to be of Persian origin, If so, why, I ask, isn't there one original manuscript by him in any museum or library public or private that has been written in the Persian language, instead we find them in the Arabic language only! Arab, Persian and Turkish cultures have the tradition of giving a nickname or second name in addition to the original name which can be a composite name as well, His complete name reads (Muhyi ad-Din, Abd al-Qadir) son of (Abu Salih, Musa, Jenki-Dost or Jangi-Dost) son of(Abdullah, al-Jili)...etc. His nickname (Muhyi ad-Din)(Template:Lang-en),(Template:Lang-ar)comes before his original first name (Abd Al-Qadir). His father's nickname Jangi-Dost is a Persian name, having lived his life and died in Gilan,it means(Template:Lang-en),(Template:Lang-ar). His grandfather was the first of the blood line to be given the nickname (Al-Jili), (Template:Lang-ar),(Template:Lang-en).The misunderstanding of this name format, the overlap of cultures in the area, along with the lack of accurate translation of the original Arabic scriptures, causes the inaccurate conclusions by foreign scholars and even local scholars who rely on the translated material as it is. If the origin of a person is determined by his name only (in this case nickname) disregarding all other facts, then I tell you dear readers, that most of the modern world is ruled by Arabs, including the United states of America, Iran and most of the far east, and Lebanon is populated by French people, and so on and so fourth. I will fortify my argument with references both Arabic (translated if possible) and English in the days to come, I ask anyone with access to such books to help me with this task, as they are hard to get in my part of the world. meanwhile I ask you to fairly reconsider some of the information posted on the page in question.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 12:44, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

See WP:OR,WP:RS and WP:Synthesis. There are also indications that Jangi-i-doost was not a nickname but the actual name of his grandfather. There other things like Abdul Qadir Gilani being called 'ajam in different manuscripts. Also if there are any authentic Arab writings ascribed to him, it is because Arabic was the main language of religion. Look at Hallaj who had Zoroastrian ancestry but wrote in Arabic. But in terms of wikipedia what counts is WP:OR, WP:RS, WP:verifiability and WP:synthesis.--Nepaheshgar (talk) 15:35, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Having such geneologies madeup for Sufi saints are not uncommon. For example Hajji Bektash Wali was made into a Seyyed, same with Shaykh Safi al-Din Ardabili who probably was not a Seyyed, same with Jilani and etc. In general actually, sometimes it is possible the title Seyyed was conferred on a person of high spiritual rank, just like the Prophet of Islam claimed that Salman is part of his Ahlul Bayt (Household). More plausible obviously is that Jangidoost was a simple Zoroastrian and his son converted to Islam. All the early references to being an 'ajam (not arab) about Jilani proves the point. By the way "Seyyeds" in Iran (which Jilani is not one) are assimilated to the local culture and it is culture, not ancestry that is the key mark of identity. For example, the last Shah of Iran had a mother who was Seyyed. Or Ayatollah Khamenei is a Seyyed but no one considers these Arabs. On the case of Jilani though, many scholars have now said he was not a Persian Seyyed.---Nepaheshgar (talk) 16:25, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Strange then, that Salman was also known MORE COMMONLY as Salman al-Farsi, not Syed Salman. Moreover, you're last statement "most scholars" is ridiculous. Which scholars? Shia scholars? Are they Ashariya, Ismaili, Kaysaniya, Druze, Nusayri, Naziri etc are they Iraqi ayatollahs or Persian ayatollahs? The mere fact that his full name was in fact ending with al-Hassani wal-Hussaini delivers the indication of his ancestry, not just the Syed title...

The title "sayed" is not a spiritual title, the meaning of the name in Arabic is Master, it was given, along with sharif which means pure in ancestry to desendants of Ali bin Abi Talib from his wife Fatima Al-Zahra to distingwish them from the rest of Quraish (the general tribe that ruled Mekka, and wer considered the masters or the most powerful tribe in Arabia), so to be a Sayed, is exclusif to Arabs from that specific bloodline. The title given to a woman from that bloodline is "Elwiah" (علوية), which indicates the belonging to the house of Ali bin Abi-Talib.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

As of Gilan being of specific nationality or belonging to a certain race at that time, it belong to the Abasid Islamic Khilafa that streched from China, to the Atlantic Ocean, that does not make Afghanistan for example an Arab state, nor does it make every body residing in this wide spread country Muslim.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
As the for the indication of the true name, you have to be knowlagable of Arabic language, to better choose sourses that are logical and neutral in their statments. Having seen the original geneology document, (the family tree) written (first hand), I think I can modestly and with no disrespct, say that I know about the subject better than an Encyclopedia written by some historian in Oxford who never set foot in the Middle East in general, in Iraq in particular, writing about a culture and a religion that he is a foreigner from, although his name indicates a christian middle eastern origen. You don't see Chinese historians quoting Arab authors writng encyclopedias about their historic figures !, because it just might be inaccurate.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
The geneology was undisputed for the last 400 years, and was recognized especialy by the Ottoman Emipe as an official authoroty, and Muslim clericks from diferent sects as the public opinion,a fact from which reulted the statement of the desendants of that blood line as Head syndicate of the Ashraf (Sayeds)(Nakeeb Ashraf)(نقيب اشراف).--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
The fact that many Sufi Sheikhs claimed to be Ashraf is true, the example you mentioned (Hajji Bektash) is relativly reasant,as most of the claims regardless of authanticity. Abdulqadir Gilani was one of the founders (about 800 years ago) of the Sufi order, that was recognized as an order long after his death, but was baised on alot of his teachings that was spread by his student therefor credited to him. At the time of his life, and he lived at the capital Baghdad since age 18, it was almost considered treason to have claimed that title (sayed or sharif) because of the fear of the Abasid rulers of claimes of true Khilafa to a desendant of Ali Bin Abi-Talib, so fals claims at that time would have been foolish and suicidal.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
The word "Ajami" as you mentioned indicates being from Iran in general in modern day Arab countries, but the word itself that was used in The Quran also meens "foreign, or foreigner", it was labled specificly to Persian people because Arabs had three main forein cultures that they wer exposed to, Persia, Rome, and Abyssinia (modern day Ethiopia), therfore (A'ajami, Rumy, Habashi)respectivly, and he was foreign to Baghdad due to the fact that he was born in gilan, arriving at the mature age of 18,not having family or freinds in baghdad, he was considered an A'ajami foreiner.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
The fact that I don't have access to the sources of my research saddens me greatly, and I agree with the respecter Nepaheshgar about the providing of sources, therefore any personal thought although published, should be removed unless it is of no consiquense to the historic value and aithenticity of the artcle, for example explaining modern day tradition in certain places that is of relavence to the person, place or historic event the artcle is written about, that kind of input is subject to discution and aproval of the editors as well as readers. The fact that the sources are written in Arabic should not be a reason of dismissal, and I will try to find accurate translated versions if possible, if not, I'll quote the source in the Arabic text followed by the english translation, so it woul be easy for those interested to check up simply by using a dictionary. I will provide them as soon as possible, and I ask for the highly regarded readers and editors to aid in this task if possible.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 09:56, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Dear friend. Please read this: . We cannot selectively quote primary sources(Arabic) in articles unless accompanied by researchers who have been reliably published in the area. That is it violates WP:OR. Misplaced Pages articles are written based on secondary sources as stated in WP:RS (specific section I mentioned). There are Arabic sources that make him an 'ajam, for example they have called him 'ajam, and said he spent time in a tower which was later called tower of 'ajam..actually I think there is a whole thesis on this issue. But I should add, that even if he was a Seyyed (which sources doubt), he is still an Iranian/Persian Seyyed and for example one does not consider Ayatollah Khamenei or Sistani an Arab just because he is a Seyyed.--Nepaheshgar (talk) 11:43, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Dear friends, Abdul Qadir Gilani was a Muslim Historical figure, if you are seeking knowledge, than his origin should not be an issue, but for the sake of truth and non other I have pursued this matter, as it is a page about the person himself in particular with a general referral to his heritage.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

If there is such a story about the tower please state the source, if not you should remove it as you have mentioned above,(Synthesis of published material that advances a position) and the quote that has been stated "probably is...etc" is not reliable, even if it was from an Encyclopedia. As of the name ajam, I have explained with details what it meant, and you can verify it with aid of an Arabic - English dictionary , if you are not satisfied, an Arabic -Arabic dictionary will give you more details.
If there is a thesis about it, please state the name author and where was it published.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
The respectable Ayatullah Khamenei, and the respectable Ayatullah Sistani especially, as he wares a black turban and with the name sayed must be of this specific bloodline, the black turban distinguishes the Sayed cleric from the other clerics, the black color of the turban is from the turban of the prophet Mohammad(P)that he used to ware in some special occasions.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
I have given the advice of using a dictionary, and I took my own advise in checking out the name genki dost, surprisingly, it turns out that the meaning is: world or universe (jenki) friendly (dost), (every body's friend), if I'm not mistaken, that discredits the tower story, correct me if I'm wrong, with sources.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
I will provide a reliable source as mentioned above shortly--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:20, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
The tower is sourced. Ayatollah Sistani/Khamenei and etc. are not Arabs because culturally they are Iranian. Jangi-Dost means battle-lover. Universe is Jahan. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 21:35, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the correction about the name. The tower source wasn't there before, it was ubove the line with the tower comment, please quote the source for accuracy. As for the respectable Ayatullah Khamenei/Sistani, it is not my place to comment about that matter, but all I will say is that they could have an Arab origin and be an Iranian, although the latter never made statements about being of either, Iran is a country whereas Persian is an ethnicity, you can't become Persian unless you are born a Persian, while you can become Iranian by living there for a long time or by marriage...etc, which is exactly my point, you can't say Abdul Qadir GiIani is Persian just because he was born in Gilan, and disregard his ancestry. If you wer born in Europ, UK, for example, you would become a British citizen, you wouldn't be considered of Anglican or irish Origen, would you? You would be an Iranian (Persian, Kurd, Arab "Ahwaz"...etc) with a British citizenship.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 11:48, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

The ancestry according to Misplaced Pages guidline should be mentioned from secondary sources only, by WP:RS. That is respectable scholars of major universities. Arabic sources that conflict each other are primary sources and cannot be quoted. Persian like Arabic is a cultural phenomenon or else most of Iraq, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, and etc. are not Arabs but Arabicized. For example Sudan or Egypt, Algeria (mostly berbers who are Arabicized) and etc. So definition of Persian and Arab is fluid. As per tower of 'Ajam it is in this source: "Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics: Volume 1. A - Art. Part 1. A - Algonquins By James Hastings, John A Selbie Published by Adamant Media Corporation, 2001. pg 10-11. ". Exact quote: "One tradition makes him spend eleven years in a tower which ever since bears his name of Burj al'Ajam, 'the tower of the Persians'.". As for the thesis on Gilani's background, it was done by a Muslim scholar but I do not remember the title unfortunately. Overall it looks like the major concensus of Western academic scholars is that Gilani was of Persian ancestry and the Seyyedship was a later invention, and there is a good deal of primary sources that refers to him as an 'ajam rather than 'arab. I am sure the Encyclopedia of Islam (printed by Leiden) mentions as well. As per Khomeini/Sistani, these are ethnic Persians since Seyyeds in Iran speak Persian, follow Persian culture, poetry and their specific ancestry is not of concern. Lots of Seyyeds do not even speak Arabic, which is a better definition for Arab. So evenetually by many generations, they become Persians but it is true that portion of their ancestry could go to Arabia or where-ever. Much like many Iranians who became Arabs in Iraq, and etc, due to linguistic Arabicization. Indeed Iraq after the Islamic conquest had a large number of Iranian population, but now only Kurds remain of this Iranian population. So the main marker of ethnicity is cultural background. For "Seyyeds" specifically though (which Gilani was probably not one according to most sources), they are part of the group they were born with the additional title of Seyyed. So Gilani according to your viewpoint would be a Persian of Seyyed (Persian emphasizing culture, background and Seyyed emphasizing ancestry) origin. Being of Seyyed origin and being Arabs are two different things. Gilani was from a predominatenly Persian-dialect speaking place like Gilan. Iranian in the old sense also does not mean citizenship but Iranian peoples (Persians, Baluch, Kurds, Pashtuns, Ossetians..or Iranian speakers). So anyhow we need to follow WP:RS and quote secondary sources. In the subcontinent, the caste system is strong and has permeated Islam, and so identity has become based on ancestry and Seyyed might be a separate class. In Iran, this phenomenon is much less (although still exists). Seyyeds basically assimilate to the local culture and are not seen as Arabs. Arabs are people from Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, Sudan (irregardless of ancestry). So there is difference between identity and ancestry. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 20:20, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Dear friend, again, I agree with Misplaced Pages's standards of sources, and again, I state that your source quotation being limited to: " One tradition makes him spend eleven years in a tower which ever since bears his name of Burj al'Ajam, 'the tower of the Persians", does not make it an accurate nor meaningful source quote, as it could be said about anyone, and you don't even mention the location of this tower!!!!--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

As of the line of argument in which you stated that the above Arab countries are a mix of races, also true but the ruling majority are Arabs, and the official language is Arabic, therefor it's an Arab country, and all the above mentioned ethnicity are recognized as they are.
I don't think that your statement that being a Persian is a "cultural phenomenon" is far from accurate as most Persian poeple would disagree with you. Persian is a race, with it's own language, you can quote any Encyclopedia on that, Iran is not a race, but a mixture of races residing in Iran (the country) as you have stated above.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Being a Sayed is as I said previously and Arabs are not responsible if any other ethnicity or nations miss-use, miss-read or miss-understand Arabic terms. In your example ayatollah "Khumaini" spend most his life (if not born) in Najaf, then He went to France before going back ti Iran, I don't think that He was considered neither Iraqi nor French, so by bringing up these examples You are Backing up my case, for that I thank you.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
The remark you made about Arabic sources conflicting each other is found in all other sources (English, Persian, Chinese,...etc), the conflict by it's self is not an issue, that's why there are researchers and scholars trying to find the most reliable source for this and that, or else they would all be weird poeple addicted to books for no reason, unless you have a certain reservations on Arabic sources in particular, then you would have a big problem because a part from local poetry, all other (non Arab) nations got a large portion of their knowledge, especially religion, from Arabic sources, or sources translated to Arabic from their original language (Greek for example).
To those who did not know, Arab ancestry was considered a science, and still is. It is one of the most accurate in the region, and it is considered insulting to lie about someone's ancestry, as well as a forbidden act, according to Islam. If a false claim was being made, at those days he might have been killed there and then, and no discussion would be made on this web site.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
I would like to mention that Arabs also existed in Mesopotamia ( modern day Iraq), in addition to Hijaz (Modern day Saudi Arabia), Yemen and Sham (Modern day: Syria, Lebanon and Palestine). Arabs in Mesopotamia were Ghasasina and Manathira ( Ghassanids الغساسنة and Almnadhirp المناذرة), two different kingdoms, both embraced Christianity, and Ghassanids took Rome as an allie, whereas the Almnadhirp made alliance with Persia.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
The source about 'Ajam Tower follows WP:RS and it is an entry about Gilani. And no the majority of Egyptians, Syrians, Lebanese, Morrocans, Algerians, Sudanese are Arab due to culture not race or ancestry. So Arabic is primarily a cultural phenomenon and so is Persian. The definition of Arab today is anyone that speaks Arabic as a native language (this is a definition that Arab countries have reached a concensus about). Anyhow, the academic scholars that have studied this issue have said Gilani was a Persian and he did not have Seyyed ancestry. But even if he had Seyyed ancestry, it would still be Persian since that was the culture of the region at his time where he was born. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 19:40, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Since an accurate source about the tower could not be provided, I have done some research about it, and found that the original author of the source provided had no knowledge of the related history and relied on personal conclusions, it should be removed even from the encyclopedia it was published in. The reason is that Burj Al-Ajam (tower of Ajam) used to be a watch-tower placed on the Eastern wall of Baghdad, overlooking the road to Persia (land of Ajam) therefor the name Burj Al-Ajam. The Gate underneath the tower was called Bab-Al Azaj,(Bab = Gate, door), it was later called Bab Al-Sheikh (Sheikh AbdulQadir Gilani) Due to the proximity of the school to the gate. The Myth of the Sheikh's father spending time in the tower is a false one for it is a wach-tower in Baghdad, a place he never been to nor lived in.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 10:12, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

I find you understanding of cultural phenomenons and ethnicity very interesting. A reminder that the term Sayed is from being of the blood line of either Hassan or Hussein, (Sadat Shabab Al Janna)something like masters of the youth of paradise, and the term was extremely miss used only in the last 100 - 150 years or so. The culture of the region as you stated was Islamic in general, and Islam prohibits the miss presentation of ancestry.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 10:12, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
What you said was W:OR. The fact is burj-ajam is attributed to him in that source I brought and it follows WP:RS. It explicitly states: "One tradition makes him spend eleven years in a tower which ever since bears his name of Burj al'Ajam, 'the tower of the Persians'.". ". I brought the exact quote, book, page number etc.--Nepaheshgar (talk) 17:50, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

OK, I'll see about getting a non W:OR publication. The book you quoted is not accurate at all, it fails to state the location of the tower, and do you think that it makes sense to spend 11 years in a tower voluntarily for a Muslim man living Gilan with a family, a place at that time depending on trade, agriculture or herding for living, and not being mentioned or known for this superhuman task, only by your source written by someone who couldn't even state the full name correctly!!!!! I know it meets the criteria of Misplaced Pages as a source, but does it make sense to you? and would you consider another story if provided with a well documented source? my other source is a book called Baghdad, published around 1980, by the architect Dr. Ahmed Susa, a world class and famous architect. I don't have access to it now, I'll try to get the quote A S A P, maybe you can help me with that, after all you are very interrested in the subject.--A.H.Gaylani (talk) 19:50, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

This is really ridiculous, he was always regarded as a Hassani and Hussaini Syed by all historians and Sufi lines. The above assertions of "majority of scholars" sounds like propogandic bias here, even the ludicrous assumption that his father (who's name wasn't Jangidost, but Abu Saleh Musa al Hassani) was a Zoroastrian?! By this account, then Ayatollah Khomeini is a Persian whose ancestors are from Kashmir (yep, his ancestors were from Kashmir, who alleged Syed origins of Imam Musa Kadim)....I can understand Persian national pride/anti Sufism, but this is ridiculous. There are even Somali Syeds! The majority of scholars and even travellers such as Richard Burton no less made mention of him and even included his Syed ancestry in their works. a couple of biased Shia ayatollah's do not in any way constitute the majority of scholars at all. a simple google search or records of his autobiographies, even by non Hanbali scholars, writers, Sufis, Alims, Imams, or even general historians mentions him as a Syed, without contention. Please refrain from speculative pondering here. A.H. Gaylani, well done for being the voice of reason here and following wikipedia verifiable criteria. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Revolution51 (talkcontribs) 15:14, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Our overzealous muslim in the Sub continent deified Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani, and worshiped like a god. They thought him a redeemer or protege. How shameful for us ---- we are crying out "Ya Ghous ul Azim pour some fortune in our house." Is this part of 5 cardinals of Islam? We thught Shaikh Sahib is just like a god, and we are supposed to respect or worship him. It is absolutely against the spirit of Islam. We do not believe in associators or spiritual men having goddly features. Islam rejects and censures panganisation of social life of Muslims. There is no divine humanly being in Islam, and we respect Sufi(s) for their teachings only. They are no means of seeking refuge or in no way they deserved to be god-fathers of Muslim societies.

Gilan Iraq: is a historic village, an Iraqi city known cities and landmarks in history and archeology, and just 40 kilometers, south of Baghdad

I mentioned dozens of sources and references historical, geographical and wrote Albuldanyen Arabs and it is attributed many of the flags and perhaps most notably Sheikh * Abdelkader jelly * 470 e 561 e Imam mystic and scholar Hambali, who is described as "the crown knowledgeable" and "Mohieddin" and "Baz God Ashhab" . It belongs way Qadiriyya Sufi who contributed to the preparation of a generation Saladin, who liberated Jerusalem from the Crusaders.

Between Vpinh and Fatima Zahra eleven father.


The first issues, the most important is undoubtedly those relating to sources and references that can be used within this study, and therefore the first thing we notice is that the sources and references available to us are many and scarce together, and sources, which includes early information about the character of Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly, and place of birth is Naturally sources from the sixth century AH, ie it contemporary sources to him, but on the importance of not more than the fingers of one hand. Late sources, which are many, they spread from the seventh century until the modern era, and derives its information from sources early, classic manner, making secondary importance.

One of the most important historians top, Sam'ani: and died in 562 AH / 1160 AD in quartz. And mention Muhammad Altazfa in book necklaces gems: that Sam'ani talking about jelly in his tail Baghdad. In fact, he cites the tail of the information is traditional, it Fakih Hambali and a man devout, attributed to Tabaristan, without specifying the source Malhumich or who transferred, leaving, a big question mark about the information and that he did not contemporaries of my generation one else, and it will probably relied on Audio not the truth, especially a quartz from Baghdad.

A large number of contemporary historians, taking Sheikh Abdul Qadir jelly without elaborating placed his birth, either closely or from afar, son ether Shafi'i Ash'ari: He died in 630 AH / 1233 AD, and Shahabuddin Suhrawardi Shafei: died in 632 AH / 1234 AD.
