Is that person notable? I tried to determine that, but I rely on automated tools to read Arabic, so, you know, tough one.
Well, ref #1 is a passing mention. Ref #2 and #3 are both newspapers articles about the subject receiving an award with some background information, but the two articles are close paraphrase of one another, which dooms them (probably copy-pasted from the same press release -> not independent). #4 is an introduction / description, I assume of a lecture video (not saved by the archive), which talks about what the lecture says (so, not independent).
A Google Scholar search for "Abdul Jabbar Al Rifai" turned a few citations referencing his work in English papers, but not one of his papers. The search for "عبد الجبار الرفاعي" seems to yield some papers where he’s the author, but it’s hard to tell with all the mojibake. In either case, there is nothing with more than two cites, so that’s not a pass for WP:NPROF #2. [EDIT: though it could also be that Google Scholar is unable to determine who cites who in Arabic text. Obviously, large parts of Islamic theology literature is going to be in Arabic, so missing those works could severely affect citation counts.]
Sorry for the brevity: I had typed something much longer but the PageTriage tool f**ed it up. Tigraan Click here for my talk page ("private" contact) 16:40, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
