@javalove

Dear brother,

May Allah strenghten you. Please be not distracted by the non muslim advice on this board. I will stay on the side of being safe only for Allah's sake and I can assure you that in a short while, insha Allah, you will tell us of a better deal/job that came up

Miss EZ:

Why are some of you trying to cause wahala. If you dont know the answer to this guys question leave him be. What is all this nonsense about Jesus and Allahs followers. He asked a question based on his faith. What has ignorance got to do with that? Stop trying to stir up trouble between both faiths. Believe what you will.

Javalove if you are in doubt, do what gives you peace and makes u slp well at night. Our faith is what shapes our beliefs and who we are. God help you as you come to a decision. Stay blessed

davidylan:

you gotta laugh at some of the naiveté on display here. If there was a "wealth of knowledge" in the quran this thread would not have been necessary in the first place.

damola1:

This is one of the funniest thread I have been on, just laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing!!!

, multiple trials, hungry never grip you,,

JosBoy4Lif:

Yes we are always laughing at yours aswell. Do you remember the colonist enslaved our people using the same "Holy Bible" as justification. Every holy book is open to interpretation more so the Bible than the Quran.

MrCrackles:

Please dont start, dont derail the thread abeg!

am impressed no serious cussing yet, bite me

tubabie:

@ POSTER
Please go thru this hadith and let me know what you understand about it.

[b]Hadith from Muslim and Bukhari:

(transliteration)
"Inna al-halala bayyin wa al-harama bayyin wa bainahumaa mushtabihaat laa ya'lamuhunna kathirun min an-naas. Faman ittaqaa ash-shubuhaati faqad istabra'a lideenihi wa 'irdhihi. Wa man waqa'a fiy ash-shubuhaati waqa'a fiy al-harami ka ar-raa'iy yar'aa haula al-himaa yooshaku an yarta'a fihi. Alaa inna likulli malikin himaa. Alaa inna himaa Allahi mahaarimuhu. Alaa inna fiy al-jasadi mudhghatan idhaa saluhat, saluha al-jasadu kulluhu, wa idhaa fasadat, fasada al-jasadu kulluhu. Alaa wa hiya al-qalb."


(translation)
"The lawful is clear and the prohibited is clear and between them are some unclear issues which most of the people do not understand. So, whoever steers clear of these unclear issues has obtained innocence for his deen and his self-respect. And, whoever enters into the unclear issues, enters into the prohibited just like the shepherd who grazes his sheep around the royal pasture always about to graze on it. Surely, every sovereign has a forbidden zone. Surely, the forbidden zone of Allah is all that He has made haram. Surely, in the body there is a small chunk of meat. If it is wholesome, the entire body is wholesome and if it is corrupt, the whole body is corrupt. Surely, it is the heart." Muslim & Bukhari[/b]

@Virgo

I was listened to a scholar saying there is no unclear issues with the scholars but it is the ignorant people like us that have grey areas. There could be differences of opnion but the issues are clear to the scholars of our faith and they form an opinion or ruling using their ijtihad and they get a reward for it if ti is right and also if is wrong based on their sincerity. Thats why questions are directed to the scholars and why we all seek knowledge. I am sure scholars will have a definite answer to Javaloves question.

$osisi:

Same thing I say.
He must not have mouths to feed either.
Game shows that don't involve betting with money is gambling.
I don laugh taya
what does he call walking the streets of Nigeria or travelling on Nigerian roads
Isn't that gambling of the highest order
Please poster go and post the job at the job section let someone use it and feed their family

JJYOU:

@ javafilth,  people are making out you are a nice goy here. they probably missed your stupid comment at the very beginning is your middle name foolishness?  you as moslem is careful where you eat  from but you are not carefull not to insult people. did your mum or dad teach you the christian way of life is gambling as you insinuated or it is your hatred for fellow human beings showing up? you must be mad or you just married your fourth wife and is preparing to die. yea right. like the one you are obeying here and the one that says you should be confused and kill innocent people for the love of your mustapha so peace can be upon him. it shows in your foolishness and hatred more than anything. way of life indeed.  do you know a more greedy people than moslems?.

Bashbaba:

Salaam alaykum

May Allah makes whatever decision you arrive at easy for you and not contrary to your deen.May He makes it an Ujjah for you and not against you in the last day. I actually had my stand which coincide with what my Imam said when I discussed the issue with him.To this end,I will like to drop my opinnion and here is what he has to say:


''There is no disagreement among scholars of this noble deen of ours that gambling is haram. The issue of writing a soft ware here may have difference of opinions. The soft ware writing is not evil but what the soft ware will be used for is evil especially when you have a fore knowledge of the proposed usage of the soft ware. My humble position is that it is like aiding and abetting gambling. The instrument to be used here is the soft ware. I think we should know that action is not judged on the basis of sincerity in Islam but it must be correct.
In Islam, what is evil must be avoided, whatever leads to the way of evil must be avoided. The objectives of shariah are:
1. protection of religion
2. protection of family
3. protection of property
4. protection of life
5. protection of intellect
6.  protection of honour.
There is no doubt that gambling  affect religion, family, property and to an extent honour.
We should advise our brother to leave it "Whoever that trusts in Allaah, Allaah suffices them, provide for them from where they do not expect'" Q65:2-7
Thanks for the opportunity given me. May Allaah forgive us wherever we make mistakes.''

Hadith 11

On the authority of Abu Muhammad al-Hasan bin Ali bin Abi Taib, the grandson of the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ëalayhi wasallam, and who is dearest to him, radiyallahu ëanhuma, who said: ìI committed to memory from the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ëalayhi wasallam, (the following words):

Leave that about which you are in doubt for that about which you are in no doubt.
