Rename to Pir Muhammad ibn Jahangir

edit

I'm renaming this page from Pir Muhammad bin Jahangir Mirza to Pir Muhammad ibn Jahangir. Mirza doesn't belong since it's really a title. As for bin versus ibn, the most common form is the ambiguous abbreviation b. When it is spelled out, both ibn and bin are used, with "ibn" being slightly more common. In the end, the distinction is a fine point of Arabic orthography who application here isn't clear to me so I'm going to go with "ibn".—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 03:44, 27 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
