Modern Turk

Ghazi is today the statue of any soldier ( seperated from rank ) in Turkish Armed Forces who has survived a war or a large scale conflict,and has been injured ( or may not have been injured at all,provided he fought to distinguish himself to earn the rank ) , and survived it.

And its meaning TODAY is entirely seperate from the Ghazi word in Arabic world.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.97.76.234 (talk) 16:18, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Razzias, Nazis, Amsterdam

I read somewhere that the raids or roundups commited by Nazis against Jews in Amsterdam during the Holocaust were called "razzias". I wonder if that word had anything to do with the Muslim battles of the same name. 192.12.88.7 (talk) 04:52, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Gazi Mustafa Kemal

"The title was also assigned to Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, even though he was a secular politician." says the article, but he was an ottoman and then a turkish soldier before becoming 'a secular politician'. IIIIIIIII (talk) 02:45, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mustafa Kemal has earned the title of Gazi after he got shot in Gallipoli campaign. Turkish forces using this as a title as a rank which is seperated from Gaza warriors of arabic Ghazi word. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.214.126.230 (talk) 08:54, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent misinformation in the lead

I suppose I could correct it myself, but that wouldn't address the long-term problem of Wikipedia contributors feeling perfectly alright writing things which they have no idea are actually true. One clue can be found on this page.[1] Also, I don't know why we're usingthis low-quality source at all, much less for Arabic philology.98.203.142.17 (talk) 05:25, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Gazawat in Chechnya

I think that word was used with the meaning of "holy war" [2] Have mörser, will travel (talk) 18:01, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The first line: Ghazi is an Arabic term that means "to raid/foray."

The third section: Ghāzī is an Arabic word which translates to "strive," "aspire," "carry out" or to "mean/intend.

So which is it?207.237.208.153 (talk) 00:46, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Historical development"

Could someone add sources to the description? It looks to be well articulated, but we can't verify the source material. Gibby01 (talk) 11:13, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What are the sourced problems?

Why is Ghazi Umara Khan not to be included in the article @RegentsPark? 49.183.16.232 (talk) 16:32, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You need to include reliable sources that verify the content. --RegentsPark (comment) 17:01, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sir i think you are a bit confused, Ghazi Umrah Khan of Jandol, who led a muslim rebellion from chitral against British Colonizers is also known as a Ghazi in every source.

Is the problem that you doubt the existing research on his entire wiki article as well as the existence of the Chitral Rebellion?

Pre-Islamic

The article starts too late in history, is Islamo-centric. The Arab tribes of the Jahiliya, the pre-Islamic period, undertook regular raids called ghazw, as did Bedouin tribes for a long time after the emergence of Islam. This has been left out of the lead (I didn't check further down), which isn't acceptable. Arminden (talk) 12:28, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
