None of the links work. Perhaps it no longer exists. No real evidence of notability. Rathfelder (talk) 16:18, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Totally unreferenced article. Doesn't seem like notability can even be established. Mansheimer (talk) 17:25, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
- The primary link was to a parked GoDaddy domain. The other one is a fake link (not only dead as a link, but the site may never have existed). This appears to be a spam article and should be marked for speedy deletion. Mansheimer (talk) 17:29, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. Based on the latest archived copy (https://web.archive.org/web/20180722110602/https://qibla.com/) it can be concluded that they have stopped operations in 2017 and the site is down since 2018. However, they were mentioned in 2 books at least:

- Delete the single ref added by The Aafi is the briefest of passing mentions. This looks like fairly substantial coverage but this just looks like a printed directory of links to fatwas collected on the site rather than any in depth discussion of the site itself. It certainly existed but there are any number of such sites and nothing tells me this one was particularly authoritative, widely cited or discussed in depth on a sustained basis. Mccapra (talk) 18:19, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
- Keep but rewrite looking notable site to me after seeing various available sources on internet, but it needs to be rewritten on the current status of the website. Although this site is not functioning but just looked at its status on godaddy which is "Parked free" which means the owner of the domain had parked it for the future use, there are chances of it being functional.

- Keep passes WP:SIGCOV from the sources presented here and in the article. It does need copyediting and updating, but AFD is not cleanup.4meter4 (talk) 16:58, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

- Delete does not meet WP:GNG. There is not a significant coverage. The Washington Post is a passing mention. Peter303x (talk) 08:06, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete no significant coverage. DGG ( talk ) 07:15, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete, lacks significant coverage. MrsSnoozyTurtle 08:42, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- I think there is now just about enough evidence that the organisation is notable. Rathfelder (talk) 21:43, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
