[edit] Fair use for Muhammad and Muhammad al-Bukhari

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

it is a historically significant building in its own right, but also holds the remains of an enormously significant individual;
it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
the photo is only being used for informational purposes.
Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the building housing the remains of the subject of this article. --Irishpunktom\^talk 13:56, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
