Welcome to WikiProject Islam! |
Mission and Scope
Salaam (peace)! The mission of WikiProject Islam is to ensure that Islam-related articles on Wikipedia are written in an encyclopedic style, in a neutral and non-sectarian manner, using verifiable and reliable scholarly sources. This is the best place to discuss issues which affect Islam-related articles in general. Discussions about particular articles should be handled on the talk pages of those articles.
The scope of this WikiProject is to improve the quality and quantity of information about Islam available on Wikipedia.
Guidelines for editing Islam articles
To promote consistency in the way articles are written and edited, a manual of style with recommended guidelines exists. Visit it's talk page for current discussion.
Task forces
- Shi'a Islam
- Sunni Islam
- Hadith
- Prophets
- Salaf
- Leaders and politicians
- Muslim scholars
- Criticism of Islam
