    "note": "No source attests a legal school or an order membership for Yate himself. The Diwan Press biography records public Muslim practice — he teaches Arabic and fiqh at the Weimar Institute and serves as imam-khateeb at the mosque of Stralsund — and the Ta-Ha biography records that he studied with Shaykh Abdalqadir as-Sufi and translated books on his behalf. Study with a teacher, a public teaching and prayer role, and translating Sufi texts attest practice and affiliation, neither of which names a school or proves an order membership. The settlement is unknown, with the practice and the study stated here in full.",

   "source": "No Wikipedia article in any language and no Wikidata item exist for Asadullah Yate (a Wikidata entity search in this session returns nothing). The record rests on two independent publisher biographies read in full in this session: the translator's biography printed in Ta-Ha Publishers' edition of al-Mawardi's Al-Ahkam as-Sultaniyyah (1996) and the author biography printed in Diwan Press's Al-Qawanin al-Fiqhiyyah, vol. 2 (2021). Their fact sets differ — the Cambridge doctorate of 1987, the study with Abdalqadir as-Sufi and the Shabistari translation in the first; the Weimar Institute teaching, the Stralsund imamate and the range of languages translated in the second — and library records of his translations corroborate the corpus. QUEUE CORRECTION: the queue's birth year 1952 is attested in no source reached and is NOT recorded; the record carries no born block rather than an unverified date. Identity: the bearer — the Cambridge-educated British translator of al-Mawardi, Ibn Juzayy and Shabistari, pinned by the two biographies. Relations written: none.",
