xbalm: @op may Allah increase u in knowledge n aCcpt dis as an act of ibadat.

It is rather unfortunate that we choose 2 cloud our sense of judgment wit extremism rather than clear comprehension n careful attention 2 detailed explanations and asking sensible questions where n when necessary. And dis cud b attributed 2 d sheer hatred we hold in our minds towards ppl of different faith n religious background which is evidently most common amongst d xtians n muslims.

Wot d op iterated r d stance of Islam itself on dis unholy blood shed perpetrated by sme individuals who bliv dey r fighting a just cause. Bt, wot I reli dnt undrstand is why we choose to attritube the beliefs of a particular faction to the whole. Does this justify in any sense the assumption or conclusion that "the Olumba oluma" faction of the xtian faith portray in perfection what xtianity stands 4 or that the Ombaitse traditional faith justifies what traditional religions signifies? Little wonder, an islamic scholar of blessed memory tried clearing the air on the yard stick upon which our judgments shud b based. In his words, he said, "if you want 2 judge Islam, judge it for what it is (its doctrines with absolute comprehension) and not by the actions or inactions of muslims."

Many of us today r either xtians or muslims because we r born of xtian or islamic homes. We believe and act towards ppl of a different faith with as much dexterity as they r looked upon by our household because, it has been imbibed in us from d cradle. How else can 1 explain d mere assumption by d non muslims that, since the B.H r muslims, d unjust killings dey perpetrate r directives of Islam n neva see any sense in any attempts by d the learned muslims 2 mke clear issues on the stance of Islam on this? In this sme Nigeria, we hear stories of pastors performing "juju" as their source of power, commiting adultery in disguise for deliverance, even holding claims 2 jsutify their actions according 2 d scripture. Does it then imply that, since I'm a muslim, I shud conlcude these are wot xtianity as a religion holds?

The issue of religion is that which only an unbiased mind can relate to n understand vividly. That u choose 2 castrate muslims because of B.H n label their religion as a blood sucking one only tells of how much understanding u hve of evn ur own religion and the contemporary world of today.
. . .If only we'v had the choice frm birth 2 choose where we belong in faith, I reli truely wonder, how many of us today 'll b left lost in the wilderness!

How come the Northern Moslems are so violent .
I think they need to be re-educated undecided


Education and exposure. Even the very educated northern muslims are calm too. The south is much more enlightened by the north and thus the muslims understand the need to seek fulfilment and joy from peacful means.

I respect Christian a lot I do go to church and my wife is christian even she was Igbo nd I don't have problem with that. My advice for you stop reading negatively to what other people say try to be positive nd correct others peaceful when wrong. (When ever I have issue I don't understand I read any of the two book around me Holy Bible nd Holy Quran)

Hahaha any of the two BOOKS So what are you then- a Chrislam ;-D

If all wht d OP has said be true, then muslims (especialy those in the north) shld strive to become more muslims and less Arabs (like the muslims in the south).
I wish the OPs post was directed more to the elites and leaders of Islam (e.g. The supreme leader Ayatolah in Iran) .The majority of muslims (as well christains) are just mere pawns to the politics of power play by the elites (who usualy know better). It has always been like this and will always be like this (as long as man lives on this earth).
GOD IS NOT AN ARAB NEITHER IS HE ENGISH.
So muslim brothers and sisters posting on NL I wld ask u to stop those 'Arabic' quotes and languages u include in ur posts and instead convey those same words in a translation which is more general to us here (english as the case may be or even in ur own native tounge). When u are in an Arabic speaking forum u can spill out as much Arabic quotes as u wld like at them.

nothing like Jihad. This is nothing
sanctioned by the book of Allah,
it is a form of corruption and
manipulation of the sacred text.

You called Boko Haram a corruption? I was hoping you could make a unique logic from your fellow brothers. If you called Boko Haram a corruption, then you're also giving your religion a name tag. Maybe this is your own way commiting Jihad.... I like it though but next time be more logical. You're not making any sense to me.....thank you.

You are getting the point he made wrong. BoKo haram and people like them have made a manipulation and their interpretation is a corruption.

dridowu: ds hapins to muslims in south east and south south also. Ds rarely hapins in south west, may b because we SW have combine of religion in our family

Who's persecuting Muslims in SE and SS? Unless you mean mocking them because it's not easy in SE and SS for a married man to go and propose marriage to a girl. His family members even won't go with him.
