maclatunji: OP, I am a Muslim living in the 21st century now.

olabukola: Are you saying that we moderates in the SW are not true muslims? Please put me clear.

Mad Cow: But its no surprise that SW muslims have always been considered to be lesser muslims than Northern Muslims na..


And this thread is DEAD ON ARRIVAL.. You cant eat your cake and have it. This is the 21st century. Should you decide to keep living like a cave man in 2013, feel free..

However... Rememeber that; MAN WAS NOT MADE FOR THE LAW, BUT THE LAW FOR MAN. Substitute Religion for the word Law.

maclatunji:

The OP never mentioned any geographical location now.

pmc01: It has come to notice that some so-called 'moderate' Muslims have been condemning a fellow Muslim for writing against celebrating late Goldie Harvey, who has been surrounded with controversy in life and in death, as a national icon. I must say it is very unfortunate for this set of people. This is what I think about them:
'Follow-follow no make me get common sense' na im dey worry many of them. Looking critically at their problem, you'll discover it's inferiority complex that has weakened their morale. They are under self-inflicted pressure to always put up that '21st century' Muslim show. May Allah save us from such disastrous calamity. Amiin.
My advice for them is discover their identity before they get irredeemably lost. If you can't stand firmly for Islam, you will eventually end up miserable. It isn't a curse, it's a known fact; you will just find yourself alone, cold in the wilderness eventually.
The time to embrace your natural identity is now!!!

@OP Lost? Miserable? Embrace Natural Identity? Is This A Joke Or What?
Was I Born With Religion Inscribed To My Forehead!? How Is It Then My "Natural Identity"?
Bleep Keep Your Religion (No Particular Religion Exempted)
Religion Was Born Out Of Idealogy And Not Biology

usmsam: Imma say this real quick.

What is so bad about someone just allowing this woman RIP? She had people who loved and cherished her for who she was. Everyday while she was alive people condemned her, and even in death still condemn her. All the hypertension she had killed her eventually and i feel like it might be because of how many people were judging her actions. Remember thou shall not judge ryt? Im sure there is a Quranic verse for that.
I mean everybody is human. Whatever one does will always be criticised, no matter how good. As a muslim, you know very well about not speaking ill of the dead. If you are perfect yourself, without sin at all, please continue bashing her.

But if you have nothing good to say, about someone you never even knew personally, just SHUT UP!!


RIP GOLDIE.

Mavor: Please the moderators should stop posting religious threads on the frontpage.

I take it Seun is a muslim. Cos when I wanted to post this, I got this Nairaland message---> "To avoid being banned, please ensure that your post is not offensive to Islam."[color=#990000][/color] Meanwhile Christian threads face rubbish left, right and centre. Yet no moderation. Either Seun is a muslim or you have sold out on the free speech and liberal ideals that used to be the bedrock of this site. I don't support religious insult, at the same time I detest censorship of speech and ideas. Anyone who comes to Nairaland and sees comments he or she doesn't like should leave and never come back. Period.
