  "reliability_note": "Low-authority entertainment/sports site biography published on 5 February 2024, read in full on 5 November 2026; used only for biographical claims that recur across the profile literature (Al-Azhar studies in Cairo; founder of Jamia Riazul Jannah, Al-Aman Education and Welfare Trust and Darul Aman), and for its contemporary account of the arrest, which agrees with the PTI report. Its birth date (21 December 1985, in Karnataka) conflicts with other low-authority profiles (1 January 1986, in Mumbai or Hubli), and its family details are uncorroborated tabloid copy, so neither the date nor the family details are used. Its closing sentence calls him 'an Sunni Islamic research scholar from Mumbai' — a one-line branch label in a low-authority profile, preserved in the faith note and settling nothing.",
