Where do you get that information from? The Encyclopedia of Islam is in 14 volumes (12 + indexes), it's the Encyclopedia on the Qur'an that is in 6 volumes (5 + index). I have found two references to Raddatz in one of the 6 volumes, two quotes from a book from 1971, nothing else. And there's no mention of his name on Brill's
website
I don't have the Encyclopedia of Islam, but if you do you might want to check for those missing volumes, that thing costs an arm.
