Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Policy-based arguments would be appreciated. The fact that books written by the article subject are used in university courses is not a valid argument to Keep. We delete plenty of articles on academics who have written books used in coursework somewhere. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, LizRead!Talk! 05:51, 30 May 2024 (UTC)reply
Comment - I'm not able to find reliable sources in English that show his academic profile, I assume they must exist in non-English languages so would appreciate it if someone could offer them for consideration. Currently there are claims on the page but, as far as I see, not much which can be verified per

Which offline source meets the standards of the GNG? I am remaining to assume Good Faith in the part of other contributors and don’t really see why you are suggesting otherwise. If there is an offline source that shows the importance of this person, which they’ve not written themselves, that I’ve missed then I’m happy to correct myself.

Ok. Well, as others have already stated, being the author of university textbooks is not regarded as suitable notability for en.wiki
I'm not saying that you are not offering an opinion in good faith, but I am saying that this is not a policy reason for !keep

1 see here, his book about hinduism is highly praised in Zad TV by
Muhammad al-Munajjid and the presenter also telephoned the publisher and requested hum to translate the book in English. His book Hindusiat wa Tasur was highly praised by Abdullah bin Salam al-Batati in the program "Al-Khajanah" of
Zad TV owned by
Muhammad Al-Munajjid and wished to be translated in English giving the book highly importance as a detailed work on
Hinduism from the Islamic perspective.
[1] His book Ash-Shirk fil-Qadim Wal Hadith has been partially translated into Indonesian by Abu Umamah Arif Hidayatullah as "Syirik pada Zaman Dahulu dan Sekarang".
[2][3] Besides, the same translator also translated some of his other works into Indonesian language.
