There is something amissing here.we need a better explanation of what actually happened the saudi gods must be tasty for blood.

Honestly, this "Stoning the Devil" practice should be stopped. It has always caused us so much pain! Even though I am not a Muslim, I feel bad seeing many innocent Nigerians die like that. That is uncalled for. I don't intend to speak blasphemy, but I do not see the use of erecting a pillar (the devil) and turning around to stone it. By consuming many people virtually each year, that devil has always shown us that it is not an ordinary pillar!

It's like the stoning of the devil backfired in this Hajj

jimmyolasun:
"Test of faith"

Indeed....they been doing this stoning shit stuff for God knows how long, when will they write the exam cos the test is getting boring

What's a woman and a baby doing there? Smh

It seems the Devil stoned them in return....Did they even see what they were stoning?

Ologogoro:
You all should have come to Kwara to worship your Allah and stone Bukola Saraki instead of risking your life in mecca, at least u also throw stone in mecca

Olohun, Ologogoro gidi niwo bobo yi sha

I believe there are those who make that pilgrimage with the sole purpose of dying there. those are the ones who start the stampede with the belief that once U̶̲̥̅̊ die there U̶̲̥̅̊ go straight to heaven, reason why this same incidence re-occurs every year...

LEXYCOM:
God judgement is wat is happening in Mecca.....

instead of mocking the death ones, why can't u just keep ur f..cking mouth shot. Pilgrim is not for tourism or sight seen, but God commandment. What will you call sosoliso plane that crashed in PH that involved redeemed Pastor? Pls we shld mind the way we comment. Rip to the dead

RIP fellow Nigerians. For the Saudi Hajj Authority to blame the pilgrims for their failure to manage crowd is depressing and evil. This seems like a discriminatory arrangement against the blacks.

They have all the missiles and nuclear weapons in the world yet they decided to throw devil stones....why not bomb satan once and rest instead of dying every year in the name of stoning the devil.

Religion, d opium of d people..

Hmm! God of mercy.

Islam is a religion of death , if the fanatics (boko haram) don't kill you , the crackheads (Saudi royal family) will get you , if the crackheads don't get you , the originator (the devil you went to stone) will kill you ,anyhow it is ... You gonna end up dead!! Choose the death you want ....

Religion is truly an opium.

I'd say 95% of the peeps who do the Hajj do so to get the title Alhaji/Alhaja.

religion is the major problem if this world. a situation whereby until you travel to a particular country before you can fulfill your religious obligation. most of them are bunch of sinners who don't abide to the laws of the religion they claim they are

1Dray:
When you went to Mecca to stone Satan and open you eyes in the other side to be meet Satan, then you realise you were scammed by a supposedly 'religion of peace'.

Jesus is the only way and the Prince of Peace... Don't say I didn't tell you.

There have been reports that the closure of two essential gate, reportedly at the instance of the Saudi Royal family who were receiving some visitors, was a major cause of the stampede, a fact Mr. Shittu elaborates.

“If the gates of those tents from both sides of the road had opened, the death toll would have been very minimal,” he said. “But the Arabs closed the gates and continued to hit the hands of any pilgrim with a metal as they attempted to scale their fences to get free air.”
The Lebanese daily further said that Salman and his entourage swiftly abandoned the scene, adding that the Saudi authorities seek to hush up the entire story and impose a media blackout on Salman’s presence in the area.
However, officials in Saudi Arabia have denied the report, calling it "incorrect." The Saudi health minister has blamed the pilgrims for the tragedy. "If the pilgrims had followed instructions, this type of accident could have been avoided," Khaled al-Falih said.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia's head of the central hajj commitee, Prince Khaled al-Faisal, has blamed the crush outside the holy city of Mecca that killed at least 717 people and injured 850 more on "some pilgrims with African nationalities", according to Saudi-owned al-Arabiya TV.

"... believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." - Jesus (John 4:21-24)

Some people could really be funny, religion blinded and hypocrite. Most of these people lamenting don't even know what led to this disastrous scene but cos they died practicing a religion they don't like hence the hate comments.

Don't people die in church worshiping Jesus? You should have also concluded churches houses satan and those that died aren't true Christians or they are worshiping come demons

If Man was God. Judge very well and let see where u shall be dt day[size=8pt][/size]

Wch peace they are all going to hell

NONSENSE!

ojeota:
I dont still understand
Why were they running ?
Who was persuing them?
Why did thé arab host not do anything to come to their aid?
So many questions to be answer







He said he is still going back there next year.
No lesson learnt.
I hope he comes back alive.

y Arabs dey kill themselves in that region? na black man dem go send...we r warming up to them via religion...talking abt double colonization.

The authority should understand that EVERY YEAR while they attempt to 'stone the devil' this devil harvest peoples' soul from a tradition that is not only insignificant in affecting the devil but also very dangerous. If it is just symbolic then the risks makes it unreasonable,otherwise it is plain stupidity for the adherent of such religion.The Saudi royal family is never affected by the deaths year after year only the 'TOURIST' are, people should think on this why don't they(Saudi royal family) attend this life threatening symbolic gesture with the multitude,I bet it is because they understand the risk but the tourist and gullible adherents don't. I think it is time for people to make an effort to THINK. Finally my condolence goes to the family of the deceased.

stoning d devil... hoping to come back to continue devilish way of life. devil just got confused!

This arab attitude are inhumane and painful to hear, something really has to be done about it asap.
Dying in the holy land is good (sunnah) but death by stampede or collision or negligience is painful.
Btw i havent heard from Fathia Balogun & Dayo Amusa, this so called celebrities shouldnt just post pictures of their presence in hajj but shld also keep fans updated to their wellbeing.
May God in his infinite mercies see everyone back home safely.
