Gani was yesterday buried in an expensive casket, the widow didn't disclose the amount bought. With the way Gani was buried in a task grave also an expensive one. With the way Gani was buried and the delay of his burial make me fear for him if he will rest in peace. So sad. Buried in casket and task grave ? Shocking !

Are you God?

Gani was buried in a 14 carats prometheum casket, the casket was made by TSO the world best maker of casket and in U.S. The punch newspaper said the casket is similar to the one michael jackson and james brown were buried in.

Hmmm. This Abdul Ghaniyu burial i fear o

Why are guys blaming the man? did he buy the casket that was used in burying him?

The prophet(AS) says that a person will be one arm length to Hellfire and if he/she is meant for Paradise, e will do things of Paradise and enters it. If a person of hellfire does all his life things of Paradise and his heart has made his soul belonging Hell, even at an arm length, he/she will turn and do what will make him/her be claimed for hell.

Casket is no Islamic and definitely Gold casket is not. Allah's Messenger (AS) says that whoever wants to put hell fire around his one neck should wear a gold chain/necklace. Whoever puts gold ring on his/her own finger then the person is wearing hell fire. To cover the body with Gold casket is completely shocking, especially for a man who was so frugal, attaching his name to Islam so much. Its unbelievable if its true, by his will or by his family changing his wishes to that; First detaying his burial and now this.

This is the reason that whoever wishes to marry must do it with a better "Believer" instead of Keferi!

This is serious. It's a pity. May Allah forgive him.

Salam Brothers and sisters

IT really shocking and surprising, May Allah forgive him and his siblings too.

May Allah forgive him amin.

A male is forbidden to wear necklace, before Abdul Ganiyu was buried he was stored in a transparent Glass for people to see, he was dressed with a nice suit, he had spectacle and the biggest crime is that a big necklace was worn on his neck and paraded like that till yesterday when he was washed and shrouded and buried

Sometimes people mix culture with Islam. Islam is different and stands alone. Many may even be a member of evil cult and the face that they put out there is Islam. Muslims must never imitate disbelievers in anything that is against Islam.

But which Muslim people performed his washing, shrouding and Janazzah? These people need to ask Allah for big forgiveness.

You are right elder olabowale, what a pity

I think u guys re just being confused. Gani, while alive was a better muslim than u all. He has touched many lives positively than many islamic clerics. U all open your filthy buccal cavity to abuse whom God has blessed.

abacha was buried according to islamic right,does dat makes him a candidate of heaven.this shows how flawd ur relgion and thinkn are.

the way and how a man exits the earth can not tell if he going to heaven or nt.

you all should get a life and be an example rather than b a warning to ur generatn.

It is while you are alive that you fight for heaven or hell. Your deeds when you were alive counts. Those of you condemning Gani, what have you contributed to mankind than stoking flames of jihad on nairaland. According to your warped reasonings, Abacha is in heaven(since he was buried to your islamic satisfaction) while Gani is in hell(because of his gold casket). How funny?

You people can rant even louder, who cares, you are kafirun hence, know nothing on Islam

And who cares with such a false religion?

anyone feeling physical pain over the matter should see a therapist oh.

u guyz visit islam for muslims everyday of your lives just to hate. very funny

some of you perhaps do not contribute to the christianity section at all

that makes al-islam an interesting religion for any inquisitive mind. keep on hating. we like the attention!

no one says gani will enter hell nor abacha paradise for reason of their burial rite.ur conclusion is more warped!

are you depressed over the matter?

Or is it the presence of infidels in the Muslim section that's depressing you? If that's the case, then tell Abuzola, Olabowale and other Muslims to stop posting in the Christian section as well. Interacting with kemferis under the guise of religion.

For those of you who think that the muslims' concern and worry about the controversy of Gani Faweyinmi, should know that your reasonings are so far from reality that you are not making even a secular societal degree of sensibility.

First a person who as they claimed for SAN Faweyinmi did a lot of philantropical deeds should not end up like in the old anti charity adage of "taking it with him" be indulging in death in a gold casket burial.

If we turn around and play out the islamic card, we will notice that you do not retire as a muslim before your death and at death and still be said to be a true muslim. The one who ends up being consistent is the muslim. Islam's paradise is not by deeds alone, else Ted Turner, Bill Gates, but disbelievers in existence of God but great charity people will be in the uppermost level! But thats not it is. The first thing is that one believes throught out life and in death it gives such an indication. So Laa ilaha IlAllah is not said alive with other extramurals, hidden or openly, and of course in death goes completely against Islam!

Delay of burial without medical reasons, is not permissable because the body is no good to the society anyhow and if left alone for long becomes a burden, a dislike and an eyesore, apart from the fact that it is deprived from gettng to the place it will remain until just at the beginning of Judgement,and the family is not over burial anyway until burial is done.


With all of these in place, if Faweyinmi being a lawyer is so important, except for other things that we do not know, Muhammad is the Professor of Sharia Law! Is there a bigger lawyer, yet he was buried as quickly as possible. Muhammad was the most known and most charitable among mankind, and you can argue against it, thats your view, but he was buried just as quick as he died.


If anyone deserved the best of burial, it would have been Muhammad (AS) yet it was simple, not wasting money, time and emotion without causing any controversy.


I remember as a child a lot of lawyers were members of the Secret Societies; Ogboni and Lodges and Masons, etc. I told my wife who happens to be muslim never to partner nothing with Allah and she will never become a member of anything, except the Muslim membership of deen Al Islam.


Whats so funny is that Faweyinmi's grand nephew became a muslim in Medical school, and he is a great Muslim Doctor, studied in DC area (Georgetown) and moved to Texas before finally moving to UAE with his yoruba also DR. Wife, who met each other in Med. Scool.

Am having a feelin Gani didnt die a muslim.

Am having a feelin Gani didnt die a muslim.

i think he must b feedup with d teachings of a sexual pervert proclaiming d news of the tyrant cald allah.

@elder olabowale, Well said, that was brilliant

Assalam alaykum ya Jama wa Nairaland@Islam
Broda Adebowale & Abuzola Jazakum lahu khairan. All oda poster ur views are recognised just want 2 advise U dat in ISLAM we follow D laid down Law of Almighty Allah. Wat transpire afta D death of AbdulGhaniy(Gani Fawehinmi) is uncalled 4. I read 4rm a daily newspaper quoted Eldest broda of Gani sayin dat he(Gani) choose 2 delay his own burial arrangement so as 2 allow MASSES & oda Intellectuals 2 view his body B4 burying him. If dat is true Allahu Ya alam.

well said bro!

particularly; If anyone deserved the best of burial, it would have been Muhammad (AS) yet it was simple, not wasting money, time and emotion without causing any controversy.

The spectator newspaper said the casket was bought for 4 million naire. It also said that it was family decision on the burial and ornament and not Gani. Too bad for the hypocrite,

Any slave of allah feeling bad about Gani's burial should go, remove him from the grave and from the casket, give him a befitting islamic burial rather than complain here. Where are them slaves of allah . . . . ?

What a deluded cross worshipper, who told you that Gani's grave is our concern, every man will meet what his hands have done, every man for his grave

If Gani's burial is not your problem then shut your trap and stop spewing nonsense posts here.

there are decent ways of making a point, if only u had one

teacher, why not you show us?

When we see evil or bad, our Prophet taught us to disapprove it according to our will , either with hand, word or condemn it. Do you get it mr cross worshipper
