the society is so anti-islam. some people will naturally stop eating with their right hands and switch to left the moment they know islam prescribes eating with the right hand and forbids doing so with the left. well, people's opinions won't change nothing



That is discrimination against the Southpaws. I know many Muslims that are southpaw and they eat with their left hands. One even told me the running battles he always have with his Clerics on this issue.

One day, he said he went to a mosque and on entering, he removed his right shoe before the left and a Cleric had to call him for correction, that he should always remove the left shoe first and when wearing them, he should wear the right one first. He simply told the Cleric that, the issue of which shoe to wear or remove first, has nothing to do with his act worship, and that worship is of the mind.

On this point I agree with the Sultan 100%. Infact, may God continue to prosper him in Jesus name. Untill women start paying groom price, make their own money, fend for the family, take care of in laws and stop thinking that sex is for sale and must be bought for their survival, that bill must not, I repeat, MUST NOT see the light of the day, nor the night. Except, of course, they want the male gender to be extinct.

You are one of the saddening problems of Nigerian youths. The problem is that you people don't read and arent informed. Islam already has laws on what the legislature is aiming to implement, so why should they subject muslims to a new one??
They have been living with it for many years and there has never been problem of Inheritance et al In muslim domains because there is already a stipulated sharing formula.
I made use of google. Next time make use of google as well before posting thrash. It will be beneficial for common sense and humanity
No mind them jare, they think muslims will handle islam as they do handle theirs with carelessness forgotten God is first in everything man wants to do ? Islam is a way of life and therefore we can't anything that will contradict it ,so also Christians should do by stopping or rejecting anything that will contradict the commandment of the Bibble if really they take God serious
Re: Sultan Tells Senate To Reject Gender Equality Bill by alezzy13: 8:34am On Dec 28, 2016
There's no need for the term "equality" in the bill. As I understand, it seeks is to increase the rights of females regarding inheritance, remarrying etc. I have absolutely no problem with that.

My grouse is with the so called equality charade. Its is misnomer and it is fake.

Until they starting pissing while standing, men and women will NEVER be equal. Lets get that right

Slave mindset. So the women in civilised climes have gone mad because of equality abi? Well, in case you want to remain a man's slave coz of a 2,000 year-old book of myths. I want the women in my life to be afforded equal opportunities like the men, no more, no less and you can decide to be a slave if that is what rocks your boat.

lmao........you are damn dumb I swear

you want women to start paying the groom price when they are confined to the kitchen, you want them to fend for the family and take care of in-laws when they are being discriminated against, you want them to stop thinking that sex is for when you've confined them to the oda room.....its obvious that you don't understand an iota of this subject...

some of them now suffer from lack of esteem(like princess above), most do not have what it takes to carry out the task of feeding families and in-laws cos we've killed their vibe..

I suggest that senate pass the bill if they don't want wahala o

The part of bill that permits a widow to marry another man AND bring such man into her matrimonial home I will NT agree with. It is very insensitive and dishonorable to the dead man and his family.it's absolutely unafrican and should nt be encouraged undecided The implications of such a practice is better left to imagination.
Oga listen to yourself. But a widower is allowed to remarry a woman of his choice? The vows say till death do they part.

I think our genesis problem in this country is the borrow religion that will never soft our problem. We need a law that will be generally accepted to everybody. This is not the Jerusalem or Saudi Arabia. This is Nigeria for God sake. Are u expecting people in SS and SE to go and read the Quran just because they want to have their understanding in that? Bible and Quran are for Religion while Constitution is for Nation/Country. if we can not make the law that will be acceptable to all, then we are not mere to life together talkless of have a country called Nigeria.

you are saying rubbish

Islam is a way of life for its adherents only, likewise Christianity.

what bout those of other religions(apart from Islam and Christianity)?. they should push for their own bill too

what bout those who are secular in nature?, they should push for their own bill too

you people are damn selfish

as for me, I won't let my daughter, my wife ,my sisters live in a country where they will be discriminated against without any benefit of attorney cos of their faith.

Hence, we pushing for the bill

Try to comprehend brother everything cannot go the way you want it. I can recalled that the issue of gender equality was brought up in a convention at the South East of Nigeria around two years ago, then their elders kicked against it immediately. So let us not drive this to religion, the same opinion of Sultan will be heard if you throw the gender equality issue to the south east and South South. Nigerians are not ready to be like Americans in all ramifications.

When Bible writes about genealogy, Women are always silence. The genealogy of Jesus only mentioned 4 women because of their exceptional faith. When it pertained to inheritance, Women where also silence. Meaning they were never given anything. Starting with Abraham who had many children apart from Ishmael and Isaac. Abraham gave gifts to his female children but never divided the inheritance equally. When Jacob divided inheritance, nothing was giving to the only female child.


When Moses shared the current land after they conquered the inhabitants, Women were given nothing, save the daughters of Zelophehad of the family of Manasseh because he had no 'son'. Meaning if he had sons nothing for the daughters. Infact, the daughters where not allowed to marry outside the family of Manasseh. Why? So that the inheritance doesn't move to another family.

In the Bible, inheritance are giving to female only if the man has no son. Number 26 : 7.

Why? because God wants to keep name of the man. Man is the head of the house. God is the head of Man. That is the order.


Woman means' from Man' or 'came from Man'. So, how can what came from man(Woman) be equal with Man?

But Yorubas law says 'ori o ju ori lo' mean One head is not better than another'

Honey speak only for yourself.
You can't tell other women whether they should want equality or not.

It's okay if you consider yourself inferior but that's you. So talk about yourself not 'our head'.

Speak for yourself.
Many of you don't even know the Bible you're touting so rampantly. Ignorance.

Wrong.


You can discuss intelligently without provoking others.
What exactly is wrong with what Jokerman posted? Is Nigeria a muslim country? So why are you provoked? Do you know that there are more Christians than Muslims in Nigeria? So the country must not move forward because of Islam? I am saying it again, very loud and clear that Nigeria is bigger and greater than Islam!!!
