It corroborates the encyclopedia articles on birth, Azhar doctorate (1949) and editorial career, and points to Jeremy Salt, 'An Islamic Scholar-Activist: Mustafa al-Siba'i in Syria, 1945–54', Journal of Arabic, Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies 3 (1996): 103–115, which was not read for this build. The entry's 'scholar of fiqh and sunna' describes his field of scholarship, not a denomination, and is not used as a faith attestation.",
