As stated in the first AfD,
Mubahala itself is notable but this
hadith is not, and the article is primarily a result of original research. All search results and academic/scholarly mentions are for Mubahala or
Eid al-Mubahila, not the hadith of mubahala. Literally nobody participated in the last AfD other than me, so it was closed as no consensus. I'm renominating it speedily per
WP:NPASR.

Keep - This has been through AfD twice, and held over twice each time, with nobody offering an opinion. This is miles outside of my field, but here it goes: this is essentially unsourced and I am not immediately finding anything on the topic in English that would count to GNG, but there does seem to be a web footprint for the phrase that indicates (to me at least) that sources are out there if one knew where to look, and in what language. I believe WP is better off with this article than without it and that deletion would not serve any positive benefit. Keep under
WP:IAR.

User:Carrite, you are the man simply for responding. There is life on Earth, apparently! Anyway, are you sure the non-English sources you're finding are actually for
Hadith of Mubahala (hadith = oral report), and not the actual
Mubahala itself?

I'm not sure of anything, I'm completely out of my element. Are you for your part really sure this needs to be deleted?

Hello
User:Carrite. I will go on record saying that I really am sure the content on this article (as copy paste of primary religious texts) needs to be deleted, and that the subject is not notable in and of itself. Now, should the whole article be deleted or simple redirected to
Mubahala? I lean toward the former but I won't deny that a decent case for the latter could be made.

If
Mubahala was a quality article and this one really sucked, I could see that outcome. But this one is at least coherent; they both have big sourcing problems. I wish a few people who work with Christian themes would chime in with OTHERSTUFF arguments one way or the other to provide guidance.
