  • Weak Keep - Looking at the arwiki + a check in google books and scholar seems to indicate he quite possible passes on WP:AUTHOR and WP:PROF (was dean at the Sharia faculty in Zarqa University). Due to the nature of the subject area, most of the sources are in Arabic, however he does seem to be mentioned quite a bit in book refs. It also seems he was translated quite a bit - google-books with Ashqar as author (mainly translated) - which is typically a sign of author notability. I am qualifying this !vote as weak as my personal ability to evaluate the notability of contemporary primarily Arabic Islamic scholars is limited in relation to other subject matters.Icewhiz (talk) 12:34, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
