oppinionated: Hmmmmm dicey

Israel should do more to minimise civillian casualties. They are not doing enough obviously

Cos an average Palestinian is a potential terrorist be it young or old! Google 'Israel and Gaza summer camp' and you will see how these 'innocent kids and civilians' are being taught how to shoot real guns and tactics on how to abduct Jews. I'm sure after you've seen that, your opinion of the Gaza people will change.

There will never be peace in Palestine until Palestinians learnt to love their children more than they hate Israel. If they can use their own babies as explosives tell me what they can't do to Israel.
For Christians, be informed that there is a global Islamic agenda to take over the world... from middle East to Europe, Europe to US, US to Africa.
You may Google the Abuja Convention by Organisation of Islamic Countries on Wikipedia and you come to realise that there is more to the agitation in the world than meet the eye.

Yes, they ar not not terrirists, don't get it twisted, d Palestinian struggle is about militants resisting d illegal occupation of their land by extremist zionists. It is about a people's resistance to an illegal land grab by d nation of Israel & not a conflict by religious terrorists. Yes, zionists ar occupying d lands of d indigenous Palestinians. because of d anti-semitic oppression they were suffering in Europe, zionists decided they needed a homeland & settled in Palestine. d UN later brokered peace between d zionists & d Arab nationalists & agreed on a 2 state solution - Israel & Palestine. d zionists hav their Israel but ar not interested in Palestinians having their state & continue to build illegal settlements even as we speak on d lands allocated in d agreement to d future state of Palestine. The Arab league is not against hamas, some Arab counties ar because of d great divisions in d Arab world. What is d root cause of d tunnels?. d tunnels were born out of necessity due to d blockade. d ingenuity of d Palestinians made them to find a way to survive d blockade. d tunnels ar d lifeline of gaza. b4 d blockade were their tunnels?.

tintingz: They think it is a war against Islam?

So why are Christians supporting Israel? Because they are god chosen people in the bible?

Sorry the Israelis don't give shiit about Christianity.



Where Zionism has arrived today should come as no surprise - its premise flawed and its pursuit folly. A premise born of religious belief in being "God's Chosen" and the folly enforcing biblical claim to "The Promised Land". The absurdity of giving any of this non-sense credence is mind-numbing. Israel, backed by the West, is a leading example of "settler-colonialism" - immigrants overtaking a land already inhabited by others. It should come as no wonder why the Palestinians remain resistant.
Unfortunately some Nigerian christians are so brainwashed,that if the Zionists said Nigeria was promised to them they'd gladly welcome them and swear allegiance to be their slaves till eternity.

Fuucckking Nigerians that would be worshipping Israel. I really hate that ish. Ignorance is a very big problem in this country. A lot of Nigerians (particularly Christian Nigerians) don't know Jack about Israel & when you talk,the first thing you hear them say is "Israel is a sacred country." Look, politics in this world is different from faith in God & faith in God is very different from religion. Many black people don't understand this & that's why we black people don't really have anything strong in this world. We don't have strong currencies,strong militaries,strong economies,strong research centres,strong health-care systems,strong languages etc. At least one country on every other continent has one and or more of these. We don't have these because we choose to be ignorant & just believe superstitions rather than investigate & be logical. We can do all these things just like every other person cause we have the abilities if we choose to,it's just that we prefer to be mentally lazy & superstitious rather than logical & practical.
The state of Israel today is not the same as the biblical Israel,besides the major national religious affiliation of Israelis is "JUDAISM" not Christianity you ignoramuses. Present day Israel was created in 1948 out of land mostly belonging to Palestine . Over several years, Israel had been trespassing ,creeping and extending into Palestine territory seizing their lands. Today, Palestine is so small that it is not even recognized as a country internationally. What's wrong is wrong....things in life don't always have to be about religious and or ethnic sentiments. Palestinians mostly keep fighting the imperialist tendencies of Israel otherwise they would stay oppressed forever on their own land by foreigners. You and I know most nations would do just what Palestine is doing right now if they were in the same shoes so I don't see why people just talk without logic. By the way,I'm a Christian so please I don't want anyone of those religious twist to things without logic.

true2god: You muslims are ignorant of your religion. This is what allah told mohammed (spit be upon him) in quran 5:51, 'take not christians and Jews as friends, the are friends to one another...'.

So with this incitement from allah asking muslims to take Jews and christians as enemies, how do u expect peace to reign in this world? Anyhw, it seems the God of the Jews is more powerful than allah.

All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.

In the first place, let me stress that Islam urges all Muslims to deal kindly and justly with all people. Muslims should have good relations with all people. At school, at work, in your neighborhood, etc., you should be kind and courteous to everyone.

Muslims are allowed to have non-Muslims as friends as long as they keep their own faith and commitment to Islam pure and strong. Allah has clearly forbidden Muslim from fighting those who fight not their faith or drive them out from their homes. Referring to this, Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for your faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them. For Allah loves those who are just. Allah only forbids you with regard to those who fight you for your faith, and drive you out of your homes and support others in driving you out, from turning to them for protection (or taking them as wali). Those who seek their protection they are indeed wrong- doers. (Al-Mumtahinah 60: 8-9).

The Qur'an does not say that non-Muslims cannot be Muslims' friends, nor does it forbid Muslims to be friendly to non-Muslims. There are many non-Muslims who are good friends of Muslim individuals and the Muslim community. There are also many good Muslims who truly and sincerely observe their faith and are very friendly to many non-Muslims at the same time.

Islam teaches us that we should be friendly to all people. Islam teaches us that we should deal even with our enemies with justice and fairness. Allah says in the Qur'an in the beginning of the same Surat Al-Ma’dah: O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah as witnesses to fair dealings and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just, that is next to piety. Fear Allah, indeed Allah is well-acquainted with all that you do. (Al-Ma’dah 5:cool

In another place in the Qur'an, Allah Almighty says:

Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for your faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them. For Allah loves those who are just. Allah only forbids you with regard to those who fight you for your faith, and drive you out of your homes and support others in driving you out, from turning to them for protection (or taking them as wali). Those who seek their protection they are indeed wrong- doers. (Al-Mumtahinah 60: 8-9)

Moreover, Allah Almighty has described Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) as "a mercy" to the worlds. He was a sign of Allah's Mercy to all, Muslims as well as non-Muslims. In his kindness and fair treatment he did not make any difference between the believers and non-believers. He was kind to the pagans of Makkah and fought them only when they fought him. He made treaties with the Jews of Madinah and honored the treaties until they broke them.

He (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have received the Christians of Najran with kindness in his Masjid in Madinah. They argued with him about Islam, but he returned them with honor and respect. There are many examples from his life that show that he was the friendliest person to all people.

In the verse you quoted, the word "Awliya" is used. It is a plural and its singular is "wali". The correct translation of the word ""wali"" is not "friend" but it is someone who is very close and intimate. It is also used to mean "guardian, protector, patron, lord and master".

In the Qur'an this word is used for God, such as Allah is the Protector (or Lord and Master) of those who believe. He takes them out from the depths of darkness to light… (Al- Baqarah 2:257)

There are many other references in the Qur'an that give this meaning. The same word is also sometimes used in the Qur'an for human beings, such as And whosoever is killed unjustly, We have granted his next kin "wali" the authority (to seek judgement or punishment in this case)... (Al-‘Isra' 17 :33)

The correct translation of the verse in Surat Al-Ma’idah is:

O you who believe! Do not take Jews and Christians as your patrons. They are patrons of their own people. He among you who will turn to them for patronage is one of them. Verily Allah guides not a people unjust. (Al-Ma'dah 5: 51)

It is obvious that Jews patronize the Jews and Christians patronize the Christians, so why not Muslims patronize Muslims and support their own people. This verse is not telling us to be against Jews or Christians, but it is telling us that we should take care of our own people and we must support each other.

In his Tafsir, (Qur’an exegesis) Imam Ibn Kathir has mentioned that some scholars say that this verse (i.e. the one you referred to) was revealed after the Battle of Uhud when Muslims had a set back. At that time, a Muslim from Madinah said, I am going to live with Jews so I shall be safe in case another attack comes on Madinah. And another person said, I am going to live with Christians so I shall be safe in case another attack comes on Madinah. So Allah revealed this verse reminding the believers that they should not seek the protection from others, but should protect each other. (See Ibn Kathir, Al-Tafsir, vol. 2, p. 68)

Muslims are allowed to have non-Muslims as friends as long as they keep their own faith and commitment to Islam pure and strong. If friendship between Muslims and Jews or Christians was forbidden, then why would Islam allow a Muslim man to marry a Jew or Christian woman? It is the duty of Muslims to patronize Muslims. They should not patronize any one who is against their faith or who fights their faith, even if they were their fathers and brothers. Allah says: O you who believe! Take not for protectors (awliya') your fathers and your brothers if they love unbelief above faith. If any of you do so, they are indeed wrong-doers (Al-Tawbah 9: 23).

In a similar way, the Qur'an also tells Muslims that they should never patronize the non-Muslims against other Muslims. However, if some Muslims do wrong to some non-Muslims, it is the Muslims's duty to help the non-Muslims and save them from oppression, that is fight the Muslim until he surrenders from oppressing others[b/] The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that he himself will defend a Dhimmi living among Muslims to whom injustice is done by Muslims. But Islam also teaches that Muslims should not seek the patronage of non-Muslims against other Muslims. They should try to solve their problems among themselves. Allah Almighty says, [b]Let not the Believers take the unbelievers as their patrons over against the Believers… (Aal-'Imran 3:28)

He Almighty also says: O you who believe! Take not for patrons unbelievers rather than Believers. Do you wish to offer Allah an open proof against yourselves? (An-Nisaa’ 4:144).


Allah Almighty knows best.

I support d cause of d Palestinians because as a xtian dat is d right thing to do. I am not gullible & I know it is not a xtian/muslim/terrorist issue. How can a true xtian support a nation whose guiding ideology is racism, apartheid & zionism.
Comparing d situation of d red Indians etc dat u mentioned to d case of d Palestinians doesn't make sense. Red Indians ar Americans wit all their legal rights guaranteed. Can u say d same about Palestinians?. U can only compare d plight of d palestinians to d plight of d blacks in apartheid south africa because d ideology of zionism is d same as d ideology of apartheid.
In the Bible the word "Jew" means a resident of the land of Judaea regardless of their tribe, race or religion just as an Australian or Englishman may in fact be a Chinese, Negro or an Eskimo, or perhaps a member of the tribe of Judah. Modern day Israelis ar not indigenous to d land,they ar Europeans.
In ur warped reasoning, modern day Israel, a nation of mainly judaists who see Jesus as a fake prophet who came to turn people away frm God ar d people of God. Modern day Israel is a nation of zionists who fled frm Poland & other European nations because of d oppression & anti-semitism they suffered & decided they needed a homeland to escape their ordeal & decided on settling down in Palestine. This zionist land grabbers & children killers ar not indigenous to d land of Palestine because they ar Europeans.
Dude, u need to stop d bigotry & hate. Rather as a xtian stop supporting a nation of racists who enlightened Xtians like d highly respected Bishop Desmond Tutu described as worse than apartheid.

Where Zionism has arrived today should come as no surprise - its premise flawed and its pursuit folly. A premise born of religious belief in being "God's Chosen" and the folly enforcing biblical claim to "The Promised Land". The absurdity of giving any of this non-sense credence is mind-numbing. Israel, backed by the West, is a leading example of "settler-colonialism" - immigrants overtaking a land already inhabited by others. It should come as no wonder why the Palestinians remain resistant.
Unfortunately some Nigerian christians are so brainwashed,that if the Zionists said Nigeria was promised to them they'd gladly welcome them and swear allegiance to be their slaves till eternity.
Lol.

Thanks for this your post. smiley

oilyngbati: Muslims are not happy

They’re not happy in Gaza
They're not happy in Egypt
They're not happy in Libya
They're not happy in Morocco
They're not happy in Iran
They're not happy in Iraq
They're not happy in Yemen
They're not happy in Afghanistan
They're not happy in Pakistan
They're not happy in Syria

So, where are they happy? They're happy in Australia
They're happy in England
They're happy in France
They're happy in Italy
They're happy in Germany
They're happy in Sweden
They're happy in the USA & Canada
They're happy in Norway & India
They're happy in almost every country that is not Islamic! And who
do they blame? Not Islam... Not their leadership... Not themselves...
THEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN!! And they want
to change the countries they're happy in, to be like the countries they
came from where they were unhappy.
Try to find logic in that ! JeffFox worthy on Muslims:
1. If you refine hero in for a living, but you have a moral objection
to liquor... You are a Muslim
2. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and $5,000 rocket launcher, but
you can't afford shoes... You are a Muslim
3. If you have more wives than teeth... You are a Muslim
4. If you think vests come in two styles: bullet-proof and
suicide...You are a Muslim
5. If you can't think of anyone you haven't declared Jihad
against...You are a Muslim
6. If you consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives
in your clothing... You are a Muslim
7. If you were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses other
than setting off roadside bombs... You are a Muslim
8. If you have nothing against women and think every man should own
at least four... You are a Muslim
9.If you find this offensive or racist and don't forward it... You are a
Muslim!! --------------------

No one is fighting any land with boko haram.

You should also use your brain that boko haram attacks and killings is a thing happening in the north, they are killing their own people.

Does is make sense??

Palestinians want their land back from Israel that's what they are fighting for. Now that cause make sense, they are simply fighting for freedom.
