I would like to have a article about the specific proffesion, for example "Islamic medicin". Those article whould bo more theoretical and historical, going through what the Sharia was said to opine about "Islamic medicin", where it originated, evolved and how it went compared to other forms of medicin.

Then we could have a article about "Muslim doctors" that talka about the more human side of it, maybe the usual age of becoming a Muslim doctor in different ages, what the recuirments was to be called that, where the doctors usualy practiced and who could afford their services, and such.

A contrast between "Muslim doctors" and "Islamic medicin", in the same way that Fiqh talks about Sharia and schools of thought and historical aspect, while Ulema goes to the human level, talking about what roles the Ulema has in different countries, what they studie, how old they are and such.

At first, i thout that we should link it this way:

For the theoretical level:

Islamic Studies - the umbrela term

Islamic medicine - the specific field of studies.

For the human level:

Muslim - the general term

Muslim doctors - the specific people.

Then we could link Muslim doctors and Islamic medicine to eachother.

At first, i thought we could creat List of Muslim doctors to accommodate for only a list of individuals, according to birth, and then add stuff like nationality, school of thought and such, just like in Muslim soldiers. And then link Muslim doctors and List of Muslim doctors to eachother. But now, that seems redundant, lets have Muslim doctors and List of Muslim doctors merged, at least until, and if, they get to big, then they can be split.

Also, i dont support merging Muslim astronomers and Muslim doctors into List of Muslim scientists. First, i want three different list, one for each. Muslim scientists should have a total list of all scientist, while Muslim astronomers and Muslim doctors do not. Some people will go multiple lists, for example Al-Razi who was many things. Second, since we dont merge Islamic astronomy and Islamic medicine into Islamic science.

In short, here is what i propose:

For the theoretical level:

Islamic Studies - the umbrela term, linking to Islamic science and Islamic philosophy

Islamic science - the specific field of studies, linking to subarticles like Islamic astronomy and Islamic medicine. Talks about Sharia, comparing with non-Islamic sience, talks about its own development in history, talks about the instruments it developted and how it benefited science and such.

For the human level:

Muslim - the general term, linking to Muslim sciencists and muslim philosopers

Muslim scientists - the specific people, linking to subarticles like Muslim astronomers and Islamic doctors. Talks about the general environment of each era, for example going to universities and speicalizing now days, while they mastered multiple fields in the past, how it generally impacted on family relations, the scientists status in the comunity and a list of scientists.

What do you think? --Striver 00:28, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

We could try to build guidlines. Here is a example:

The theoretical articles like Islamic medicine should limit itself to:

More general text, avoiding to much information on individuals and focusing on the proffesion.
Boundaries set by the Sharia.
History of each era
Comparision with non-Islamic counterparts
Hadith and Qur'an texts relevant to the issue
arabic Etymology of the word
Name of significant works and books
Impact on the world

The human level articles like Muslim doctors should limit itself to:

More specific text, avoiding to much information on proffesionand focusing on the individuals.
Typical life of the Muslim doing the proffesion, in each era.
How Family relations was affected by the job, in each era
How they got the education, in each era
The status they enjoied in their community on each era
Names of some most significant Muslim in the proffesion
A list of Muslims in the proffesion
