issues relating to terrorism or boko-terrorism as seen in Nigeria are not new to us and cannot b completely blamed on islamism 4 no religion has a monopoly of terror.what should b borne in mind is that d propagators of dis crimes r d same people who originated it and d victim r the lilliputians who allowed themselves to b used and d poor innocent victims r d poor people of this nation Nigeria.it is condemnable. shocked

Castos: Please I do have questions to ask. All these bad reputations of islam, was it that islamic teachings were not properly taught and the believers lacked orientation? Do islam hate other religion? How did the seven virgin story came about? Did prophet Muhamed made mistakes in delivering the teachings of Allah? Why must the it be muslims that are the most feared when they claim peace? Why must it be that religion Islam? Why?
AMERICA is making it up. Hope we'll see more light soon... All of us are in darkness. Why shouldn't they arrest Bin laden? At least they found and killed him unarmed. What about Muhammed Yusuf who was killed in the Police custody? America made a prophecy in 1999 that Nigeria must break before 2015, how will we get tired before then if BH are not in the film. They saw love (even if it was never a true one) and sensed their mission is impossible. I hate to say these words.

Billyionair, u re not suppose to be on this thread cos u will end up disgracing urself. u can now see how islam goes with nature. its so Godly and natural. we muslims work with the Luna Calendar. and not just a mere common sense calculation. we are all happy with the development. fasting is by sighting of the moon and Sallah too is by sighting of the month.

thanks, every1,@castos, @cyril83 and every other person, i'll say big thank u for giving me the opportunity to be understoood...i know it very surely that many ppl will have lots of questions to ask, and lots of clearifications to make, just the way it was when i was a youth corp member, but i dont know how i can do that right now, cos most times i just pass bye on nl, read ppl's comment and dont post anything...cos posting wld require high level of concentration so dt u'll not be misunderstood, its tasking and time consuming, if i shd start some of those issues we may not conclude them today and i have lots of work on my desk right now, u can drop ur email contact and i'll surely contact u guys on some of those issue...Thanks alot, i love and appreciate u guys!

May i point to you sir,that islam is not the first nor the only religion using nature as a determinant factor of worship.Before the advent of islam other religions have used the sun;star;and moon to determine how they worship.I believe this act are borrowed from each other as no religion is trully free from the other,they took one thing or the other frm themselves.
My friend pls take ur time and read more about Islam. google all Islamic principles and Ideas, study them and compare them with other religion. I bet u wound hesitate to convert to Islam. I challenge u to do that pls. if u truly believe in reseach as a means of finding answer to unknown question.

if u are following the Sunnah of our Beloved Prophet PBUH u will accept the fact that the starting of Fasting is by sighting of the moom and ending the Fasting is also by the sighting of the moon. it not your doing. its Almighty Allah's Decree.

Thank God u know that. Islam has existed long before the Birth of Our Noble Prophet PBUH. it has contribute alot to Humanity. and among which is Fasting During the month of Ramadan as it has a great medical value to the human health. the person fasting has been confirm by science as very healthy.
sighting of moon must go in accodance of the teaching of our belove Prophet PBUH and All muslims must adhere to. And

Dont quote me wrongly,I only pointed to you that astrology or astronomy has been before the prophet mohammed(saw), so islam was not the first religion to incoporate such into their worship system.ryte from babylonia to egypt down to the assyrians (not syria) people have been using the moon to determine their worship.the only problem most people have is that we are not intellectually honest....intellectual honesty is characterised by your readiness to scrutinise what you believe and listen to other evidence available....there are countless numbers of evidence to prove that periodic fasting was not first brought by islam....there are other evidence available that facing the east to pray did not start with islam.....there countless number of evidence i just can go on and on.....unless you dont want to be honest intellectually......ps......am not pissed as you said..sallam.

Hello my muslim fellows, the rules in islam are clear cut rules.as relate to ramadan and the moon,it only talk about the month.the fact is that it haram to fast on the id day, that is the day that marks the beginning of new month.you can only do ramadan fasting in the month of ramadan.if the moon is sighted 6.00am in the morning it simply mean u are no more in the month of ramadan.u dont need anybody to tell u.new moon shows the beginning of new month but not the end of a current month.click on this link and see if u are still in ramadan month http://www.moonsighting.com/. Sorry my fellow muslim, today, saturday 18th of august is not a ramadan month.all u need to do to proof me wrong is to say what i have seen is not true.Thank u.

My haulagehandlers. this thread is for the sighting of moon and not for arguing...
if u really want to drag us into interlectual clearification, pls u can start a new thread on this...ponit of correction,
muslims are not facing the east to pray but rather the Kaaba.
fasting in its total abstinancy from eating, drinkin, and other forms of pleasure is only enjoined by Islam. and its being observe upon the sighting of moon. All the prophets of God that came Before Prophet Muhammad PBUH practised islam and enjoined fasting just the way Muslims are doing[b][/b]

Ramadan fasting dilemma when sun never sets

Practising Muslims across the world are observing Ramadan. For one month, they are fasting between sunrise and sunset. But what do Muslims do in a town where the sun never really goes down?
