Re: Sheikh Gumi Escaped Death In Kaduna by gbadexy(m): 9:51am On Aug 16, 2012
There is no reasoning with NL christians. I can't help but repost an earlier post for a different thread here again to prove that it is easier getting across to cows than fanatics and their mind set remains unchanged .

Sentiments beclouds sound reasoning.
I'm at a loss trying to understand how any
sane person would think that boko haram just
killed two soldiers and had two of their
members killed so as not to hurt christians
feeling or that they aren't the only ones
attacked.
How silly can people get? Like seriously, religion
is more dangerous than cocaine in the minds
of already gullible people that doesn't have
objective and independent thought.
Does boko haram give a phuck what christians
feel or have they ever hidden their disdain for
christians?
Sure they are fighting christians and the group
is used by politicians to cause instability
through religious or ethnic means while the
members feel they are fighting religious war.
There attacking christians mostly and muslims
that oppose them doesn't mean Islam endorses
them or they speak for the muslims in nigeria.
Do you people think if there weren't soldiers
there, the casualty won't be more than two? Or
did they call the mosque ahead to get soldiers
to protect them because the would strike and
then they attacked anyway because they give
a damn what christians feel.
During the attacks at the mosque, like the one
a suicide bomber tried to bomb some emirs in
yobe and at other mosque, did they acted
script or was it for lack of trying that the
bombers didn't succeed?
Did they claim they are fighting islam, they are
just dissident groups with extreme views and
the attacks on the place of worship is usually
targeted against a key person who has
condemned or criticize them like some fools
claim they are not doing and they are attacked
for it without any appreciation or
encouragement by those fool. Instead they
would wonder why such people were not killed.
Apart from the high profile ones you hear, they
regularly kill many scholars and clerics that
condemn their activities.
I am yet to meet any sane and unbiased
christian on NL and the views of the fanatic
ones are extreme, I wonder what such
hypocrites would do if ordered by their pastors
to go and bomb some mosques with the
provision of ammunitions and the promise of
heaven like during the crusade.

This is just propaganda. Too many questions begging for answers. Did the suicide bombers confess before dying? Is it only the sheikh that uses that road? How did we arrive at the conclusion that the Sheikh was the target?

Sheikh Gumi: Prophet Mohammed, Muslims Have No Enemy Worse Than Boko Haram
Posted: August 14, 2012 - 19:33

Sheikh Ahmad Gumi
By SaharaReporters, New York
Islamic cleric Sheik Ahmad Abubakar Gumi, whose series of daily Ramadan sermons is gradually drawing to a close, yesterday asserted that members of the Boko Haram sect are the most dangerous enemies of Prophet Mohammed and Muslims in general.

The cleric, who is based in Saudi Arabia, made the statement as he preached yesterday at the Sultan Bello Mosque in Kaduna. He enjoined fellow Islamic clerics to defy any fears and preach against the unjustifiable killings allegedly perpetrated by members of the sect.

One of the clerics at the mosque, who did not want to be named, told a correspondent of SaharaReporters that he was inspired by Mr. Gumi’s courageous message and would follow suit.  

Our source credited Sheik Gumi with warning his audience that there were also criminals carrying out criminal acts in the name of Boko Haram and destroying the image of Muslims. In addition, he reportedly alleged that some elements were recruited by Western powers to fight Islam in Nigeria.

Mr. Gumi added that, if members of Boko Haram were truly behind the bombing and killing of innocent people, then they are enemies of Islam and Muslims in Nigeria. He said there were serious developmental challenges affecting Muslims that need to be addressed rather than carrying out arms and killing people.  

Our source quoted Sheik Gumi as stating, “If it is true that it is Boko Haram, I repeat, anybody that carries a bomb and kills people is wrong. Our malams [teachers] should not be afraid to talk. The issue that anybody who talks about Boko Haram will be killed should be defied. [Some say] that if you talk about the consequences of Boko Haram, they will kill you and [so] the best is to keep mute. If you keep quiet, they have already killed you since you are silent. Show them the right way of practicing Islam, and [do not] allow a few people to be practicing contrary to the laid down rules as enshrined by Allah.”

Sheik Gumi added, “You who have hid are cheating our faith. You are not helping Islam but destroying our Ummah. We have been oppressed and [members of Boko Haram] have come with weapons and bombs attacking our society. Because of this, I state that Prophet Mohammed and his people have no enemies more dangerous than they. If they want true religion and better society they must drop weapons. This is not the time for carrying weapons.

“It is time for us to address our core challenges of development that threaten our existence. Imagine a Muslim woman who, in the course of having a baby, will open her unclothedness before an infidel…and you are here talking about bombs. Food we cannot eat on our own, except rice brought from Thailand. Medicines we get from England.”

The cleric further spoke about the weapons used in the attacks. He asked, “How did a 12-year old boy know how explosive bombs are made or affording it? All the money before us here cannot buy explosive bombs. It is the enemies that are giving them weaponry and they…believe that it was sincerely donated in fighting Allah’s cause. Unknown to them, it is all aimed at destroying Islam.”

Condemning attacks on Christian churches, the cleric asked, “If you attack Church, where people are worshipping, what is the profit and for what purpose? Is it Allah or Prophet that sent you? Is there any Muslim that said you should attack a church? Talk of mosque, they are being used in destroying Islam and may Allah help them to know. Our strength is our unity and the practice of real Islam. And anybody who thinks he will be using force like this, Islam and Ummah have no greater enemy than him.”

The cleric suggested that there are different types of Boko Haram. “There are those using it to destroy Islam, criminals attacking banks in the name of Jihad. There are those using it to attack Muslims in mosques. After attacks you will just see somebody with turban and guns belonging to the West, denting the name of Islam. Because of this we should be careful. There is Boko Haram and some fake ones, pure criminals. The real Boko Haram can be changed with sermon. Our malams should stand up to tell them there is no justification for killings. Don’t be afraid. They are killing Muslims and the infidels we have agreement to live in peace with.”

The Spiritual head that motivates them for evil action we have arrested with Christ Wisdom Last Salvation. Not with man made weapons or gun but with Supernatural power. We blind their eyes not to see us with their evil thought. The spirit and mind of man plans before the leg and hands take over. This arrest is not made for Islam only but for all livings in the universe. Our Government is Angelic and Women Regime because Christ 1st Salvation of Silver was made for men which made Holy Ghost to be gift of the Father to men. Wisdom Last Salvation of Gold freed Holy Ghost from slavery of men. It made us to be Christ not like Christ because like Christ is not Christ. Like Gold is not Gold.

Sharia Law forbid women to be head over men. Women to be president of the Nation, head of Islam, Head of Catholic Church and being strong in politics. This is the Battle Field. As far as women are kept as 2nd class Citizen in this world the world will continue to be at war. Gumi is not hatred of you or Islam because Catholic Mission are also involed in denial of women rights.

With the prodding stick (advice, support, encouragement, ..., call it what you will) the Conductor starts the music which is timed (2015) with the last notes from "Tora Bora" and "Basra". And the applause . . .!

Which is the next Symphony to be rendered? Could it be titled "The Olympic Circles"? Will it be a sweet symphony? Will it be accommodating to the ear? Will it gladden the "niger-ians" little hearts? But, most of all,..., will the Conductor be paid?

Security Tightened Around Sheik Gumi Over Anti-Boko Haram Comment
Posted: August 4, 2012 - 03:54

Sheik Ahmad Gumi
By SaharaReporters, New York
SaharaReporters has gathered that there are serious security concerns over the safety of Sheik Ahmad Gumi following his critical statement against sectarian bombing that targets innocent people. In a Ramadan sermon delivered yesterday, the Islamic cleric declared that it is not Islamic to inflict death on others, adding that those killing innocent people are ignorant of Islam’s core teachings.

A source who prays at Sultan Bello Mosque, Kaduna, where Sheik Gumi teaches daily told SaharaReporters that security has been stepped up at the mosque. “There are security concerns and fears,” said the source, adding that “Sheik Gumi has spoken with a bluntness and bravery that no other cleric has shown so far.” A senior Nigerian police officer in Kaduna confirmed that security around the sheik and Sultan Bello Mosque had been tightened.

A Kano-based Islamic scholar told SaharaReporters that he would not be surprised if some extreme elements tried to attack Mr. Gumi. He stated that the sheik was right “in making it clear that all those carrying out suicide bombings and killing people are not real Muslims, but misguided heretics who have completely deviated from Islam.” The scholar praised the sheik for “preaching that there is no justification for those using bombs to kill fellow Muslims and non-Muslims with whom there should be neighborly trust.”

Mr. Gumi’s sermon against the incessant violence in Nigeria is widely seen as a direct reproach to Boko Haram militants who frequently claim credit for deadly explosive attacks. The source who attends Sheik Gumi’s mosque said Muslims all over Nigeria should be proud that the cleric has affirmed that any suicide bomber who kills innocent people “will not see God.”


“Sheik Gumi kept repeating that there is no way those doing [these killings] will make heaven, without repenting to Allah.”

Mr. Gumi also challenged other Muslim clerics and teachers to boldly preach against killings and other acts of violence that threaten to tarnish the image of Islam.

The Kano-based scholar urged Muslims in the country to pay heed to other messages from the courageous cleric in Kaduna. “If other clerics become like Sheik Gumi, we will soon overcome the situation we are facing.”

In his sermons, Sheik Gumi has charged all Muslims to stand up, and save their religion from present challenges. The cleric also condemned today’s suicide bombing attack that targeted the Emir of Fika.
Sheik Gumi has called on those mounting the attacks to renounce violence, and suggested that they be granted the same kind of amnesty extended to Niger Delta militants.
The cleric, who has a reputation for fearlessness, is the son of the late famous Sheik Abubakar Mahmud Gumi. He is based in Saudi Arabia where he lives with his family.

The only ones they abuse with respect are their pastors by saying'touch not my annointed' I read your hateful comments always and say once one is blind,he cannot see.my pain is when i know boko haram killed my brother in one of their suicide missions,he too was by his car, boko haram prevented my sister from going to live in her home in maiduguri when she recently got married and all her things are getting spoilt their. I have family leaving the only thing they know as home as of yday to God knows elsewhere. My niece in kano still cannot hear well coz d major bombings in d past damaged her hearing. I can go on and on the suffering but no need as now i firmly believe christains(as I thot they say christianity preaches love) just hate for any reason or for no reason at all. So please continue as this is exactly what you do best now.. Oya start your ugly comments and as you do know that is exactly who you are. Gbam!

If you don't speak agaianst boko haram, they say you're a sponsor
If you speak against boko haram, they still say you're a sponsor.

I think majority of the people on NL have mental issues beginning from most of posters on this thread.

Nigerians! When BH boys kill we say oh their imams support them by not criticizing their acts. When someone (Imam) does, we say its all stories and lies. Wetin una want? Well, I hope their bombs will finish the main leaders. Those poor mules don't know that their leaders enjoy life to the fullest, fornicating day and night while drinking and enjoying suya. The ring leaders will never want to die. They will use the excuse that they have to stay alive so they can organize the jihad war. Test them by sugesting they train a new leader and strap a bomb to themselves so that they too can enjoy heaven early. They will open their book to show why they must not die such unatural death (succide).SMH

denko: Pls stop this propaganda how will they kill their sponsor

Where is the proof that he is their sponsor?

excondido: its even more plausible to say the target is a church than this wild speculation.

During the week? Are church services held now on Mon and Tue

berem: Hmmmm! Na wa o! They always escape and never get killed in the bomb explosion.

safarigirl: Hehe, perhaps the Sheik forgot to give em their change after they dropped =N= 500 in the offering basket. If they like, they can wipe themselves out of existence, they have begun to turn against each other, na small small corruption dey enter.

It was reported here on NL that he criticised them.
Beginning to look like christians are enjoying this Boko Haram issue

It stands to reason that christians cannot stop potential recruits. The more muslims who listen to the sheik condemn BH, the fewer the chances of recruitment by BH. But looks like Christians think that people trying to tell the truth and stop BH influence should be killed too

dederocs: muslıms should wake up and be realıstıc,ıf ıt were a chrıstıan sect kıllıng people ın mosques and shootıng muslıms by now all muslıms wıll be wagıng war wıth chrıstıans ın the north.ıt seems muslım leaders are proud of boko haram,may ı remınd them dat the cıvıl war was a war between FEDERAL FORCES agaınst bıafra so they should not count themselves too strong or brave. learn a leşon from what ısreal dıd to the Arabs durıng the 6days war.d jets kıll more.
To be realistic, christian have shown restraint. No doubt. But you are losing by accusing all muslims
If all muslims were terrorists, wouldn't there be more attacks on daily basis
Why do you think everyone delight in killing innocent people?
There are people who truly believe that killing innocent people is a grievous sin
Don't compare Nigerian christians to Israel. That is a country and was supported by the world powers. And they get the best arms from the US

Would you be happier and safer if he actually good to kill Christians
And if he is lying, would it not be better for potential recruits to believe that killing innocent people is bad
Or is there something that we stand to gain by your reading of this?

Offering basket? You must be talking about pentacostal prayer house. And you are not a Christian anyway.

My Friend the killing at DEEPER LIFE was on a Monday.

You're wrong and you must stop your biased statements. I know alot of Christians on NL that are neutral, sane and unbiased.
