- Comment "A similar concept is encountered in a number of Islamic countries.Oxford English Dictionary, ""ulema"": ""Those who have had special training in the knowledge of Muslim religion and law, and are regarded by Muslims as the authorities on these matters.""Cf. ""Who is who in Afghanistan?"" website: ""The Afghan National Council of Ulema - the highest religious body in Afghanistan - is to Afghanistan what the College of Cardinals is at the Vatican. The Ulema Council [...] is a group of influential Sunni and Shi'a scholars, imams, and Islamic jurists from across the country reflecting the network of provincial ulema councils. Its senior members meet regularly with the President and provide him advice on Muslim moral, ethical, and legal issues. The Council is nominally independent of the Government, but its members receive financial support from the state."" http://www.afghan-bios.info/index.php?option=com_afghanbios&id=1218&task=view&total=2032&start=1238&Itemid=2 (6.9.2011)"
