To me it seems you have some problems translating the C++-docs to Python

What exactly does that mean?

This would call isTabEnabled on "self" which doesn't seems to be the
QTabWidget. Thats the first problem, now the second is: You try to
multiply the QTabWidget with the value of the variable sources.

So you want to check wether the widget with the label "source" is
enabled? You could do:

if self.mainTabWidget.label(self.mainTabWidget.currentPageIndex()) == "source":
  do whatever you want.

If self.sources points to the widget it's even easier:

if self.mainTabWidget.currentPage() == self.sources:

The Qt docs are for C++, there "QWidget* w" means: The variable "w" has
the type "pointer to QWidget". So the isTabEnabled function wants a
QWidget instance as parameter and as it belongs to QTabWidget needs to
be called on a QTabWidget instance (your mainTabWidget).
