Non Notable Islamic scholar. I think the real successeor of Akhtar Raza Khan is Kanthapuram A. P. Aboobacker Musliyar. ❁ᴀᴜᴛʜᴏʀ❁ (❁ᴅᴏᴍ❁) 21:44, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:MILL and WP:SIGCOV. We generally only keep the grand mufti of a country/state. Two news stories is not significant coverage. Bearian (talk) 14:44, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. This man made national news by becoming the Barelvi Islamic Chief Justice in India. That is head of a sect to which the majority of India’s Muslims belong. Additional sources at [1], [2], [3] and [4]. @Bearian: can you tell me the basis for saying we generally only keep the Grand Mufti of a country? I’ve seen numerous contributions at AfD saying that Christian bishops are generally notable, though canons, monsignors, deacons are not unless by GNG. that’s a very different standard to ‘one guy per country’. Thanks. Mccapra (talk) 03:57, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per Mccapra. Considering the untold number of articles about Catholic, Protestant and Anglican clerics, I think his rank qualifies. —Мандичка^YO 😜 07:14, 21 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - changed based on multiple good sources found. Please make sure, closing admin, that they are added to the article. By "state", I mean sectarian division or province, in addition to a country. India is a country of about 1 Billion persons, so having just one notable cleric for the whole nation would not be equitable. Bearian (talk) 16:35, 22 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment If this person is notable, why don't any pictures appear on the internet. ❁ᴀᴜᴛʜᴏʀ❁ (❁ᴅᴏᴍ❁) 05:23, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Mccapra. Passes WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 18:00, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep A truly worth-keeping article. In addition, I am convinced by Mccapra's argument above. Ngrewal1 (talk) 20:44, 29 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
