"Part coastal Persia"?

I've changed the above phrase to Iran. The link to Persia didn't seem to be consistent with using modern or present-day names of present-day geographic locations. 4.243.206.153 07:31, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Queen of the Arabian City reference to Kochi in India

This is ridiculous! the source cited by the author of this reference is an Indian newspaper. Just because one country where the Arabian sea reaches (India) feel that one of their ports is teh "Queen" doesn't make it so. Kochi as the Queen of Arabian sea is vitually unheard of in any of the other countries where the Arabian sea reaches. This reference must be removed....I tried to but the page seems inaccessible due to some maintenance being performed or something...someone please do this virtuous deed and remove this ridiculous reference —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.98.143.43 (talkcontribs) 21:08, 7 April 2007

Indian Sea

This sea should be named Indian Sea since India has the most coast line not Arabian countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:2C6:4403:42AD:99A2:E9B5:1949:BE34 (talk) 00:48, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

Arabic name

Currently Bahr al-'Arab and Bahr al-'arab redirect here, and the first sentence says that this is the Arabic name for the Arabian Sea. But there is also a river in Sudan named Bahr al-Arab which sources say is also spelled "Bahr al-'Arab". For example, see: Bahr al-'Arab and Bahr al-Ghazal at Encyclopædia Britannica Online, As Sudd and Baḩr al Ghazāl at MSN Encarta.

From what little I know of Arabic, "Bahr" (or "Baḩr" more properly) can mean river, lake, or sea. So I wonder if something should be done about this. I realize the Arabian Sea is far more notable than a minor stream in Sudan. On the other hand the stream drains the Darfur region, so it may be of interest these days. Perhaps one of those "for the river in Sudan see..." blurbs? Pfly (talk) 07:13, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

This is a fine mess. There is going to have to be some disambiguating hing a dinga shimga done. And the article about the river is unsourced. I would tell you to go ahead and add the dab templates, but I'm thinking that Bahr al-Arab should be moved to Bahr al-'Arab or Bahr al-'arab (or even Baḩr al-A/arab). The first two options would require deleting the existing redirects, and you can't do that unless you are an admin (I can do it). I do want to be able to point to reliable sources for the form of the name. Any thoughts? -- Donald Albury 11:53, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Heh.. I was planning to add a little to the river article and give a few references.. when I manage to get around to it. I was thinking of maybe adding one of those "for the river..." templates to the top of the Arabian Sea page. I forgot how, but I think I've done it before and it wasn't hard. As for redirects, I thought you could edit the link redirected to without being an admin. And I think you can move pages without being an admin, at least after something like five days of using an account. But not knowing much (anything) about Arabic, it's hard for me to have much of an idea about your naming comments. The NGA geonames source I mentioned seemed to use the same names and spellings (including variants!) for both the sea and the river, if I recall right. Maybe I'll ask for the Arabic on the language ref desk. Maybe transcription of Arabic into the Latin alphabet is too messy for a simple answer. In any case, I could add one of the little disamig blurb templates to this page, but am probably not up for the work of making a full-blown disambig page and fixing all the relevant links etc. Disambig work can be so tedious.. Anyway, I was pleased to see your reply this morning -- somehow I thought this was too esoteric a topic. I have no time today, but wanted to reply before heading out. Later. Pfly (talk) 17:05, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
If you want to move an article to a name that is currently occupied by a redirect, you have to delete the redirect first. Maybe the easiest thing is to convert the redirects at Bahr al-'Arab and Bahr al-'arab to dabs, i.e.,
Bahr al-'Arab can refer to:
  • [[Bahr al-Arab]], a river in Darfur
  • the [[Arabian Sea]]
-- Donald Albury 21:12, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah I read too quickly and misunderstood. Or maybe I assumed one could cut and paste between an article and a redirect, though I guess that make link fixing a pain. In any case, your redirect->dabs idea makes sense. For now I just added a "hatnote" to the two articles. It might be non-ideal, but it was quick and I have to go to bed... Pfly (talk) 08:24, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Moving articles by cut and paste is a bad idea, as it loses the edit history, which the GFDL requires be preserved. The 'hatnotes' sound fine. Now that I think about it, a disambig page would be overkill. -- Donald Albury 15:01, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Parsyan sea

due to the fact that Indian, Iranian and Pakistani population who live in the coastal areas of this sea is more than its arab population , the name of the sea must change back to PARSYAN SEA or INDIAN sea like it was before. even Indians ,Iranians ,Pakistanis ,Indonisians and Baluchis consist of 53% of those new arab state population . —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.197.66 (talk) 22:59, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

As an Iranian Persian, I feel sorry for you. Historically, Arabian sea is tied to the Arab culture which moved slaves, spices and other things along the routes in this sea (Specially Yemenis were active in the trades.) As the language of the traders there was mostly Arabic (As Iranian's mostly traded by land), the Sea must be in fact called "The Arabian Sea". This has nothing to do with the legitimacy of the name for Persian Gulf though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.233.169.184 (talk) 12:06, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

What it should be called is irrelevant. This article must reflect what it is called. Bazonka (talk) 12:33, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Alternative names

The Arabian Sea historically and geographically had many other different names by Muslim travelers and European geographers such as: Akhzar Sea, Persian Sea,[1], Chah Bahar,[2] Makran Sea,[3] Sindhu Sagar,[4] Erythraean Sea,[5] Dera Macran,[6] and Sindh Sea.[7] The name of the sea is disputed amongst some historians in Iran and Pakistan.[8] They collectively argue and believe that the name Arabian Sea was first used on maps due to colonialism in the past 400 years.[9] Among historians, travellers and geographers of the Islamic era, many of them writing in Arabic or persian from the 9th to the 17th century, Ibn Khordadbeh,[10] Ibn al-Faqih,[11] Ibn Rustah,[12] Sohrab,[13] Ramhormozi,[14] Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Farisi al Istakhri,[15] Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn Ali al-Mas'udi,[16] Al-Mutahhar ibn Tahir al-Maqdisi (d. 966),[17] Ibn Hawqal,[18] Al-Muqaddasi,[19] Ibn Khaldun, Mohammad ibn Najub Bekiran,[20] Abu Rayhan Biruni,[21] Muhammad al-Idrisi,[22] Yaqut al-Hamawi,[23] Zakariya al-Qazwini,[24] Abu'l-Fida,[25] Al-Dimashqi,[26] Hamdollah Mostowfi,[27] Al-Nuwayri,[26] Ibn Batutta,[28] Katip Çelebi and other sources have used the terms, "Bahr-i Mohit", "Bahr-i Mohit i Ajam", "Bahr-al-'Ajami", "Bahr-i-Fars", "Dera-i-Fars"(Persian), and "Bahr-i Mokran/Mecran", "Bahr-i Al Akhzar" (green) to refer to the current Arabian sea. ("Bahr-in Arabic means Sea" and Mohit means ocean) none of them referred to as Arabian sea.[29] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maahmaah (talkcontribs) 12:25, 14 April 2012

Ibn Sa'id al-Maghribi , Muhammad al-Idrisi,Istakhri ,Mahmud al-Kashgari ,Khashkhash Ibn Saeed Ibn Aswad and Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi had mentioned the sea as Persian sea and sea of Mokran.there are many maps and atlases which prove the names other than Arabian sea in the past centuries .there are a lot of famous facts and documents.

some of the midival map including the map by Vincenzo Maria Coronelli, 1693 had mentioned the Persian sea and also Makran. thumb|The western part of the Indian Ocean, by Vincenzo Maria Coronelli, 1693 from his system of global gores the Makran coast

Basp1 yep, these are not reliable sources and also original research. The sources you gave in the article were Wikipedia and this blog. The [http://www.columbia.edu/itc/mealac/pritchett/00maplinks/mughal/miscmaps1600s/coronelli/coronelli1693.jpg map also mention the Arabian sea "Mare Arabia", I am not sure if the "Persian sea" was a small sea next to the Arabian sea( possibly the Gulf of Oman since it is located there and not mentioned in the map?). Also I went and checked these what al-Idrisi and forementioned people said and I found that they were referring to the Persian Gulf not the Arabian sea.--SharabSalam (talk) 06:42, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
