[edit] Hashim or Hisham?
- I'm guessing it's the former. Can someone who knows more please fix this? Palm_Dogg 09:18, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name and Descent
If he is Amr b. Hisham, how can his father be Wail b. Umayya, as the article seems to suggest? Also, if he is Amr, why is it written "amro" in the Arabic script? I am doing some research about this person, and his name was most likely not Amr b. Hisham, rather Amro b. Wail, known as Abu-l-Hakam and he most likely was the father of Hakam and grandfather of Marwan b. Hakam or Marwan I, the Umayyad Caliph.
