My friend Father Dave sent me an e-mail on how Christians and Moslems can be friends!
http://www.fatherdave.org/friends/index.html

Yes, it's true! Christians and Moslems can be friends.

Has the media led you to believe that your Islamic neighbours are out to get you?
Have people been telling you that the Moslem community is trying to take over?
Did you buy into the propaganda that all Arabic people are your enemies?
Prejudice arises out of fear, and fear thrives upon ignorance!
This webpage aims to promote harmony through sharing truth

Please understand: we are not saying that Christianity and Islam are basically the same. Nor are we suggesting that Christians and Moslems should agree on everything. What we do believe though is that when we have disagreements, we can dialogue and learn from eachother. And when we find that we share common concerns for the community, we can work together.

Below you will find articles, video material, audio interviews and more. Please make use of these resources, and return often, as the material is constantly being updated. You might also like to leave a comment at the base of this page or log on to our forum to express your opinion.

I advice that father to be very careful o! because that mallam fit tie knive and sword for body. That is if him the mallam no carry bomb be dat. No way oo!!

The problem for most people like me is the volatile nature of Islamic fundamentalists and the tacit endorsement of their actions by Islamic leaders. I can careless what anybody believes in, as long as you don't come for my head because I insulted your religious belief. This hyper-sensitivity that rears it's ugly head every now and then amongst Muslims is the true danger the world face today. No other religion will kill people over the kind of stuff that drive Muslims to commit murder, under the disguise of protecting the sanctity of their religion. Are other Gods not highly regarded as Allah, to make it's adherents kill at the slightest provocation? NO. It's called restraint and accommodation for other peoples views.
Islamic leaders has a lot of work to do to achieve lasting peace in the world.

Ishmael,
Have you forgotten that Prophet Muhammad came from the root of Ishmael?

I have a Moslem babe and I love to see her in her hijab and abaya.

THAT IS A BIG LIE ACCORDING TO THE QURAN. BUT THE SHOW GLASS MOSLEMS CONSCIUOSLY OR UNCONSCIOUSLY IGNORE ALL THESE
THE REAL MOSLEM ADHERE STRICTLY TO THIS.

ISLAM = HATE= TERROR


Please read this Quranic Verses and get back to me



2:191, And slay them wherever ye catch them

2:193, And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression

2:216, Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you

3:28, Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah

4:48 “Allah forgiveth not that partners should be set up with Him; but He forgiveth anything else, to whom He pleaseth; to set up partners with Allah is to devise a sin Most heinous indeed.”

4:84, Then fight in Allah’s cause - Thou art held responsible only for thyself - and rouse the believers. It may be that Allah will restrain the fury of the Unbelievers; for Allah is the strongest in might and in punishment.

4:141, And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way (to triumphs) over the believers

5:33, The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;

8:12, I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them

8:15-16, O ye who believe! when ye meet the Unbelievers in hostile array, never turn your backs to them. If any do turn his back to them on such a day - unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own)- he draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell,- an evil refuge (indeed)!

8:17, It is not ye who slew them; it was Allah: when thou threwest (a handful of dust), it was not thy act, but Allah’s: in order that He might test the Believers by a gracious trial from Himself

8:60, Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of Allah and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom Allah doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of Allah, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly.

8:65, O Prophet! rouse the Believers to the fight. If there are twenty amongst you, patient and persevering, they will vanquish two hundred: if a hundred, they will vanquish a thousand of the Unbelievers

9:5, But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem.

9:3, And an announcement from Allah and His Messenger, to the people (assembled) on the day of the Great Pilgrimage,- that Allah and His Messenger dissolve (treaty) obligations with the Pagans. If then, ye repent, it were best for you; but if ye turn away, know ye that ye cannot frustrate Allah. And proclaim a grievous penalty to those who reject Faith.

9:14, Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands, cover them with shame, help you (to victory) over them, heal the breasts of Believers,

9:23, O ye who believe! take not for protectors your fathers and your brothers if they love infidelity above Faith: if any of you do so, they do wrong.

9:28, O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque.

9:29, Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

9:39, Unless ye go forth, (for Jihad) He will punish you with a grievous penalty, and put others in your place; but Him ye would not harm in the least.

9:73, O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell,- an evil refuge indeed.

9:111, Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur’an

9:123, O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers who gird you about, and let them find firmness in you: and know that Allah is with those who fear Him.

Muhammed a TERRORIST prophet , Islam what a religion, Osama an Imam of the muslim community in syria now a bomber funny .

On an individual level yes we can be friends as long as religion is never discussed.
I have a close muslim friend who wears a hijab,from turkey.We are cool together,we never discus religion,however.
Turkey is a secular state for the most part so she is a regular outgoing person who loves good food and fine clothing.

But I cannot be caught walking down the street with the wierd looking ones that cover like masquerade with peep holes for eyes.
No,that would be embarrassing.

Yes, he's from the root of ishmael; but his character and behaviour are far away from that of ishmael in the Bible. God blessed ishmael and was with him thru out. He worshipped the same God with his father Abraham; so I wonder where Moh'd got his ALLAH from?? Because the God of Abraham frowns at sin, violence and terrorism. All those stories in the koran about Abraham and Ishmael are cooked and fabricated stories that are not close to what the Bible says about them. No mind those mallams i beg.

Anyway, I welcome all sexy Moslem babes 24/7.
Come as you are, hijab and abaya.
But please, don't hide any explosives in your panties lest you blow up your precious private parts.

Prophet Muhammad had 13 wives from 6 years old Aisha to Mummy 45.

But for modernity sake, please only 16 years old and older Moslem babes would be given bed space in my palace. But please, only certified virgins without any disease or sickness will share my spacious water bed. I want you to convince me to become a Moslem within 12 months.
If I taste the pudding and find it sweet enough as Prophet Muhammad did, then I would be convinced.

I love Moslems.

@babycrisis
I read all your posts. Are u praying 4 my death? I can see that you are terribly hurt by my post. If you feel that there were some topics posted to me and I failed to give the answers, please paste them as a new topic and title them Firdaus take notice. In sha Allah, I will answer them accordingly.

I don't usually have interest in any expostulation exceeding 2pages, may be that is why you think I ran away.

By the way, has 4malik travelled out of network? If so, I pray 4 his save return.

[b]Finally, concerning your hatred 4 hijab, don't you read in the bible some of its injunction?

let me shed some light on what is considered in the west as the greatest symbol of women's oppression and servitude, the veil or the head cover. Is it true that there is no such thing as the veil in the Judaeo-Christian tradition? Let's set the record straight.

According to Rabbi Dr. Menachem M. Brayer (Professor of Biblical Literature at Yeshiva University) in his book 'The Jewish woman in Rabbinic literature', it was the custom of Jewish women to go out in public with a head covering which, sometimes, even covered the whole face leaving one eye free. He quotes some famous ancient Rabbis saying,"It is not like the daughters of Israel to walk out with heads uncovered" and "Cursed be the man who lets the hair of his wife be seen, a woman who exposes her hair for self-adornment brings poverty."

Rabbinic law forbids the recitation of blessings or prayers in the presence of a bareheaded married woman since uncovering the woman's hair is considered "nudity".

Dr. Brayer also mentions that "During the Tannaitic period the Jewish woman's failure to cover her head was considered an affront to her modesty. When her head was uncovered she might be fined four hundred zuzim for this offense." Dr. Brayer also explains that veil of the Jewish woman was not always considered a sign of modesty. Sometimes, the veil symbolized a state of distinction and luxury rather than modesty. The veil personified the dignity and superiority of noble women. It also represented a woman's inaccessibility as a sanctified possession of her husband. It is clear in the Old Testament that uncovering a woman's head was a great disgrace and that's why the priest had to uncover the suspected adulteress in her trial by ordeal (Numbers 5:16-18).

The veil signified a woman's self-respect and social status. Women of lower classes would often wear the veil to give the impression of a higher standing. The fact that the veil was the sign of nobility was the reason why prostitutes were not permitted to cover their hair in the old Jewish society. However, prostitutes often wore a special headscarf in order to look respectable. Jewish women in Europe continued to wear veils until the nineteenth century when their lives became more intermingled with the surrounding secular culture. The external pressures of the European life in the nineteenth century forced many of them to go out bare-headed. Some Jewish women found it more convenient to replace their traditional veil with a wig as another form of hair covering. Today, most pious Jewish women do not cover their hair except in the synagogue. Some of them, such as the Hasidic sects, still use the wig.

What about the Christian tradition? It is well known that Catholic Nuns have been covering their heads for hundreds of years, but that is not all. St. Paul in the New Testament made some very interesting statements about the veil:

"Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonours his head. And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonours her head - it is just as though her head were shaved. If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or shaved off, she should cover her head. A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. For this reason, and because of the angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head" (I Corinthians 11:3-10).

St. Paul's rationale for veiling women is that the veil represents a sign of the authority of the man, who is the image and glory of God, over the woman who was created from and for man.

St. Tertullian in his famous treatise 'On The Veiling Of Virgins' wrote, "Young women, you wear your veils out on the streets, so you should wear them in the church, you wear them when you are among strangers, then wear them among your brothers, "

Among the Canon laws of the Catholic church today, there is a law that require women to cover their heads in church. Some Christian denominations, such as the Amish and the Mennonites for example, keep their women veiled to the present day. The reason for the veil, as offered by their Church leaders, is "The head covering is a symbol of woman's subjection to the man and to God" : The same logic introduced by St. Paul in the New Testament.[/b]

orinkinla yeah i have loads of christian friends we argu a lot ,we do most things in common ,i even attend their occasions and they attend my own religious occasions,
the christians on nairaland are just different

Mukina2,
Don't mind my jokes. But I prefer women to use the hijab and abaya regardless of your race, class or creed. Among Igbos and Yorubas, women cover their head with scarves.

The only thing I have against Islam is the fact Islam contradicts my Holy Bible from Geneis to Revelation.

But my love is above religion.
So, I love all Moslems.
And I don't even mind to propose to you Mukina2.

I wrote about the fanatically Nigerian Christian man who was in love with a Sunni Moslem babe in my book Scarlet Tears of London where I also talked about the hijab, abaya and burga.

I love Moslems as long as they won't suicide-bomb me if I dare to ask Mukina2 to go out with me.

orinkinla stop cracking me o

mukina2:

orinkinla yeah i have loads of christian friends we argu a lot ,we do most things in common ,i even attend their occasions and they attend my own religious occasions,

Muslims abi na Moslems sef, make una allow us hear word. Na today?? Dem dey make friends with wild animals??

why dont you shut up,
this is ramadan and muslims are fasting respect us will you?

Mukina2,
Don't mind Ishmael.

I am really missing my Moslem friends in Lagos. 

I have worked for Moslems and they have proved to be more sincere than the so called "419 Christians."
Ask Alhaja Hadyat O. Shittabey how we worked together in Lagos.

I have a lot of friends who are Muslims. They live their lives like the rest of the world. Practicing their belief without regards to what a non-believer does or says.
The danger is that rational Muslims are unable to change the doctrine of violence widely accepted in the Islamic world as a means of expression.
The current trend of sooting the nerves of Muslims each time they flare up is only a band-aid solution. If Muslims continue to react violently to what people say about Mohamed and Islam, then the rest of the world better be ready for battles ahead in this war of culture and freedom.

The more we make friends with Moslems the more peaceful they would be.

You better make friends with an untamed lion than with those people (moslems).

Ishmael,
Don't you have academic or professional interactions with Moslems?

Yes i still have muslims as friends, but i always mind the way i talk to them when it comes to religion. You can never predict a muslim o!; they can be friendly and nice to you but could also be violent. They never find it funny or comfortable discussing islam with non-muslims. Those people are cultist o, be very careful with them. a word is enough for the wise!!

He's Lord.

well, i now live in a MUSLIM country (North Cyprus, Turkey), where the population here is made of 99% muslims, and still I HAVE NO PROBLEM with any ONE of them!!!

they are about the nicest people i've met yet and they always ask "christian or muslim?" and i say Christian, and they say "no problem man, no problem!" then thay as again, "catholic or orthodox?" and you know, there's just no problem at all!!! its nice, i mean, i love this island and i love the people as well!

while i was working during the summer, ALL my collegues (except my fellow africans) were muslims, ALL of them, including my boss and his boss!

The nice people we deal with at the shops and markets are muslims too, and that's where you know who's nice! cos, i experience things i NEVER experience in nigeria here!

also, back in the time before summer was here, we would strole down to the beach, where you'd see hundreds of families organizing family picnics (remember, ALL muslims) and they will ALWAYS invite us to come eat with them! we can walk into any table, any gathering and NEVER walk out without getting a full plate! some hospitality, huh to people you never knew, and within a minute, they've asked that question "christian or muslim?" followed by, "its no problem, man!" "chrsitian, muslim, no problem! all, one God" or you'd hear things like "i love all humans" (someone told me that this morning when i said i was christian, and you know what he even prepared breakfast for me!)

So, YES, muslims and christian ARE FRIENDS!!!
