Read this section as the report of the sources, not as a museum ruling.

The English Wikipedia infobox gives his denomination as Sunni, a single unreferenced value in one source family, and Wikidata gives his religion only as Islam generically. ^{1 2} His thesis topic is a research subject and his Medina teacher's affiliation is his teacher's, not attestations of his own school. Under the two-source rule, and because doubt leaves a value unclassified, his faith is recorded as unknown.
