- We transliterate the Arabic letter kasra with "i" here, not with "e" (please see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Arabic). The reason for this is that the "i" transliteration is more common in English-language academic sources, which in turn make up the bulk of the sources used in Wikipedia articles involving Arabic transliteration. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 10:12, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
