ISLAM & EBOLA!! What Would They Have Said? by Hardeshyna(m): 10:26pm On Sep 02, 2014 |
WHAT WOULD THEY HAVE SAID... If Patrick Sawyer was a MUSLIM? If Ebola had originated in SUDAN MALI, SAUDI ARABIA or LIBYA? If those being quarantined were to be MUSLIMS? If the new cases were recorded in the NORTHERN PART? If EBOLA were to be spread among the group of people sharing water for ablution? If Ebola was to be transmitted by rams and sheep muslims slaughter for Eid and namings? We give thanks to Allah for everything. Muslims are not enjoined to eat bats, monkeys or chimps. Our mosques are not empty despite the warning to avoid groups. We still assemble toes to toes, shoulders to shoulders, five times everyday. Our Jum'at centres are not empty on Fridays. We still pay visits to our families and friends and we do not avoid relatives. Let us give thanks to Allah for His grace and protection over us. 1 Like |

Guinea population bis actually 85% islam, 10% xtian. An epidemic should be fight and not to be politicised or adding religious connotation to it. It will be a bigger problem in Northern Nigeria of it were to hit the region |

abdulwastecx: 1. Ebola was first discovered in Zaire (now known as DR Congo) in 1976 2. The present outbreak started with a baby and people transmitted to others out of ignorance without malice or willful neglect for the safety of others. 3. The man is saying and rightly that were Sawyer (who appeared to have deliberately brought it to Nigeria) a Muslim, the reaction would have been different. Note that President Jonathan rightly called him a madman and the Health Minister referred to the issue as viral terrorism. The first thread opened on it would have been filled with pages and pages abusing Allah and His Messenger (SAW). It does not matter if the person has not been to a mosque for 10 years - Islam would have been blamed If a Christian did it, religion would not have been mentioned or it would have been attributed to the devil Note that the religion has not been mentio9ned so far but we know that Sawyer knowingly came to Nigeria - he was not a Muslim Mr Koye who took it to Port Harcourt is not a Muslim The lady who jumped surveillance and went to Enugu thereby putting the lives of many at risk in Enugu is not a Muslim http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/10/world/africa/tracing-ebolas-breakout-to-an-african-2-year-old.html?_r=0 Patient Zero in the Ebola outbreak, researchers suspect, was a 2-year-old boy who died on Dec. 6, just a few days after falling ill in a village in Guéckédou, in southeastern Guinea. Bordering Sierra Leone and Liberia, Guéckédou is at the intersection of three nations, where the disease found an easy entry point to the region. 2 Likes |

abdulwastecx: Guinea population bis actually 85% islam, 10% xtian. Muslims don't politicise such things This advice is for those who specialise in religious hate Go and check out the thread on the Saudi Arabia's possible ban from hajj of people from Ebola-hit countries 1 Like |

Had patrick been a muslim we would have heard all sort of nonsensical statement, but once again Muslims on nairaland and beyond have continued to show great wisdom and maturity in dealing with this sort of issues. |
