It is very long and I'm sure many would consider it difficult to read, but it's one of our most valued articles. And it has not a single image. IMO the wives article looks a whole lot better without the images. With them it make the page a lot more cluttered and vastly lowers its tone. About drawing readers in, I can almost guarantee a page like this will receive a lot of views on WikiIslam. Related sites critical of Islam may not find pages like this to be a success, but then their target audience is usually different to ours. And TBH this site is there for those who want to actually learn accurate facts about Islam. If a reader needs images to keep them interested, then they're at the wrong site.

:It looks pretty good. Thank you for fixing my broken link to the Aisha-apologetics. | |||
:Who is Madudi and what is ''Tafhimul Quran'' about? I don't have a problem with your adding the detail that Zaynab was Muhammad's cousin; although not strictly relevant to the topic, it adds interest. (But it won't shock a British reader very much. Queen Victoria also married her first cousin.) However, I probably ought to know something about the reference to which I'm supposed to have referred. I have added the early-source references that prove their kinship. | |||
:I will be writing more about Zaynab's whole family very soon. There are gaps in her biography (nobody seems to know the name of her first husband, and the popular story that Muhammad built her a nice little workshop for her leather-crafts doesn't seem to be trackable to a primary source) but a ridiculous amount is known about her five siblings.[[User:1234567|1234567]] ([[User talk:1234567|talk]]) 19:30, 16 April 2013 (PDT) | |||
