[edit] 53:26
53:26 is taken out of context and mistranslated, Arabic is my first language, the last part of the verse means exept for whom he wants and accepts (could be both the intercessor and the person being Interceeded for too) , I'll find a supporting translation somewhere ;) --The Brain 21:12, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Overabundance of Muslim quotations
This focus of this article is a specifically Christian practice. It should not be a forum for non-Christians (or even Christians!) to hash out their theological differences or to try to convert one another, but to describe the practice, its history, its context, and so forth. If Muslims do believe in intercession of saints, then information of this length may be warranted if it were original material, but still No sermons! That said, these are mostly quotation piled on top of quotation. This is not the wikipedia way.
As interesting as the Muslim information is, it ought to be moved (if it is not there already) to the more general Intercession article, or perhaps wikisource, with a link ("see also") from here and (a very few) select quotes to illustrate the different positions within Muslim practice.
