This is a comment. Islam does not have 'Prophets'after the Prophet Mohammed, it has 'Imams'. And they couldn't have been burried in Wadi-as-Salaam, (and this is the correct name of the cemetery), because this cemetery was created after his death. The Imams are described as holy men in some cultures, but they are not Prophets. Wikilka 20:59, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The prophets were buried there before the cemetery was made (and before Islam), the cemetery was build latter around it. --Khalid! 13:22, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]


This cemetery is the largest in the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.58.132.158 (talk) 20:38, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Math issue, it's noted that an "estimated more than half a million corpses are interred in the cemetery each year", and in the next line it's states "... and contains millions of bodies", the question math says that if more than 1/2 Million are interred each year, the millions number needs expansion upon, as every 2 years a new million would be added.

Which War?

[edit]
It is estimated that before the war about 200 to 250 corpses were buried a day..

It does not make clear before which war - Iran-Iraq, First Gulf, Second Gulf? Please clarify.Cloptonson (talk) 20:33, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
