the moon is reflected on earth along a lunar path, and depending on your location you may or may not sight the moon at its fullest in its first day of circle

this is why Lunar eclipse is only visible in some location while others don't see it

Scientifically it is absurd to site the moon because the moon is constantly moving around our earth and the part we see is the part reflected by the sun to some part of the earth at that particular time, reasons why religion and believers are illusionists that will believe in any kind of nonsense no matter how illogical it is provided it is written in their book

You are on point, my brother! Islam is a political tool to the Fulani to project power, without the religion they don't have the justification for occupying the seat of power in the north since they were settlers and a tiny minority.

The sultan is just a ceremonial figure in the larger scheme of things, in reality, the emir of Kano is even more powerful than him.

The Sokoto stool is to maintain the symbolism of the 19th century Jihad since the Hausa slaves now feel it liberated them after their brain washing. To a large extent some Ilorin tools are also slave to that feudal system if not for Otoge that allowed Kwara Yorubas to realize the real 21st century power belongs to them. They watch in awe how the SW is projecting power and i hope they learn from it

I am sick to my stomach with the slavish adherence and deference to an ethnic group all in the name of religion

I was a devoted Muslim in the past, religion doesn't make any sense bro it is just a tool for political domination. The Hausas are irredeemable they are lost forever, they can ever change owing to over 200years of living in an Islamic state but the Yoruba of Ilorin are changing gradually, many of them don't actually believe in the Fulani feudal system and since many of their elites we're born and brought up in Lagos they wish to be closer to the southwest in politics and everything than the North.

The sarakis we're the stumbling block before since they needed the sympathy of mostly control Fulani central government during the military era both today most Kwara government are pro Yoruba that you will even see minority groups in Kwara north speaking and identify with Yoruba.

Wetin concern you?? Yoruba muslims tell you say make you talk for them? undecided

Taking pandol for someone else's headache.... you will not cause disunity amongst us. You think everyone is like you people? So make every tribe carry its own separate religion?? Abeg this isn't christianity where your bishops and preists keep fighting for bigger churches and more tithes! Each tribe with a specific doctrine of christianity... Catholics, orthodoxies, coptics....

If you're a muslim you're a muslim,it doesn't matter which tribe you come from. We all worship one God and we are all equal. Its not by tribe!

So go and sow you hatred else where.... na u sabi tongue

Not only was this snuck into the 1999 constitution with a govt funded office of the Supreme Council of Islam that makes the Sultan of Sokoto as the Supreme authority on Islamic affairs and all Muslims but the Sultan also doubles as the permanent head of all traditional stools. This makes your Obas, Ooni, Obis, etc subjects under the Sultan.

How this came about is anyone's guess. Was the south sleeping when Abdullsalami dusted Abacha's personally authored constitution and handed it to Obasanjo on May 29, 1999?

To the topic : Why cant Yoruba Muslims appoint their own spiritual leader?

The Sultan of Sokoto is for Fulani Muslims and their slaves. To be subjected under the whips and caprices of his fatwas is to subject yourselves to Fulani Islam and to lower your own Islamic identity.

Yoruba Muslims wake up.

This is the root of Nigeria's problems the fulanis are using Islam as a political tool to remote control the core north and the south west.

Dan Fodio only uses jihad to take power from the Hausa kings. He blackmailed them of not practice Islam according to the sunnah and corruption. He only latches on the sentiment of religion to gain political power for himself and his minority Fulani brothers.

1)The Sultan is NOT the head of all the Muslims in Nigeria.

2) There is NO one central head of ALL the muslims in Nigeria

3) The Sultan is the President of the Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs which is a Sunni Muslim voluntary group of Nigerian Muslims whose membership cut accross all ethnic groups in Nigeria, including Igbo, Ijaw, Efik, Hausa, Nupe, Fulani, Yoruba , Kanuri etc.

El Rufai did same last year in Kaduna south where he appointed Fulanis as Emirs in the heart of the Christian regions. Not stopping there, El Rufai officially acted on his earlier threat to derecognize any traditional stool that did not assume the Emir title, that is, he ordered the chiefs to convert to Islam and turn their kingdoms to Emirates. Since the Chiefs did not comply to his directives, he simply appointed Fulani sairikis as Emirs .

And one redeem pastor goat will tell you no one can islamize Nigeria.

That's why Fulanis can't stand christians, not because it is any better than islam, but because you have to be under the spell of Islam not to see the Fulanis for the unintelligent, manipulative savages they are.

The Alaafin is a traditional title and NOT a religious title.

Any prince from the different branches of the Oranmiyan royal dynasty can become an Alaafin regardless of his religious identity.

Before the acsension of Alaafin Lawani Agogooja in 1900, all the previous Alaafin were traditionalists (they were neither christians nor Muslims but practiced African Traditional Religion).

Stop poking your nose into issues that you don't understand and/or doesn'tn concern you.

What is prayer? Prayer is individuals' communications with deities.
Whosever we perceive that can lead prayers varies from individuals to individuals and so many people don't even pray at all.


There's no national consensus on who should or can lead prayers.


This kind of discussion on 'who lead prayers' is an idle talk.

Which sacrifices? Going by the logic of who first built an Islamic state in Nigeria the head of Muslim should go to the Kanuri since they have an Islamic state centuries before Usman Dan Fodio was born.

Coming back to the question, sultan of Sokoto was made the head of Nigeria Muslim by northern military leaders, in reality, he doesn't even command that respect in even in the core North. People respect Islamic scholars like Dairu Bauchi, senior Kumi and the lack than the sultan.

The Yoruba and Edo/Delta have their Are Muslim which normally resides in Ibadan. Yoruba Muslim are independent of Hausa-Fulani Muslim both in ideology and structures.
Yes, Kanuris built the first caliphate but islam was propagated throughout the countries with fulani's effort
Muslims in Nigeria are all one ummah irrespective of tribe and geo location
