[edit]

The article on Islamic toilet etiquette refers here: "To wash the orifice with water, even though no filth is stuck to it after relieving oneself, is desirable. If the filth is sticking to it (less than a Dirham or equal to it) then the use of water is 'Sunnah' (optional) and in the case the filth stuck to the orifice is more than a Dirham then its washing with the water is 'Fard'. (obligatory)" ...does anybody know what Dirham means in this context? 68.35.68.100 04:49, 8 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Maybe the size of a dirham coin? Nightstallion (?) 15:04, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Picture misidentified

[edit]

The coin shown on this page is an Umayyad gold dinar, not a silver dirham, as should even be visible from its color. The inscription in the center says "Allaahu Ahad. Allaahu-l-Samad. lam yalid wa-lam yoolad"="God is One. God the Everlasting. He does not beget and was not begotten." This quotes most of Qur'an, Surah 112, verses 1-3. Around the margin, the coin reads, "Bism-illah. duriba haadhaa-l-dirhamu fee sanati sab`in wa-sab`een"="In the name of God: This dirham was struck in the year seventy-seven." Since the Umayyad epigraphic coin reform took place in the year 74 AH=693-694 CE or AD, this is a very early Muslim epigraphic coin, dating from 77 AH=696-697 CE and therefore from the reign of the Caliph `Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan (reigned 685-705). It is not from the reign of `Ali (r. 656-661) and was not struck in the city of al-Basrah in Iraq, where gold was not struck. Although its mint is not given, it was probably struck in Damascus. There are no dated coins of `Ali, and the names of the caliphs do not begin to appear on the coinage until `Abbasid times in the 3rd cent. AH/9th cent. CE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.110.254.65 (talk) 17:40, 18 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

As stated above Image:Imam Ali coin.jpg is a fake. Not a silver derham. It is a golden dinar . It was used in Iraq, and the image is already used on the 1000 Dinar Note. The Central Bank of Iraq clearly states in the 1000 Dinar Note section that the coin is called a Dinar not a Dirham and it is made of gold not silver.

A gold dinar coin, used in this region until superseded by more modern coins and notes.

I have removed the image from the article. Thanks --Tarawneh (talk) 07:08, 2 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
