Nice one FFK. I hereby dub you a Crusader.

The Arabic inscription on the Nigeria Army coat of arms is Nasrunminallah. It means ''Victory Comes From God Alone''. Checking closely, you will notice that the word we get as the English word for God in the translation is Allah. Lying Muslims will also tell you that Allah means God or is the Arabic equivalent of the English word God. This is a big lie which I will prove below.

In the Islamic Shahada, which is the words you swear when you want to become a Muslim, which most of you are aware of cos that's what this forum makes you swear before you comment on an Islamic thread, we find the word for God which clearly isn't Allah. Look Below.

The Shahada: There is no god but Allah

In Arabic: La ilaha illallah

The word for god is ilaha. If Muslims lie by saying that allah means god, then the appropriate translation will be 'There is no god but god''. This doesn't make any sense. Hence, the reason why they put the name of their god Allah there. Can you all now see that Allah is not the word for God but the name of a god, the Muslim god?

Why do we have the name of the Muslim god on the chest of our soldiers many of whom are adherents of other faiths? Is Nigeria an Islamic nation? Are the Christians, Atheists, traditionalists who are soldiers in the army now to be called soldiers of Allah?

This must be changed. As a Muslim,before you go on the defensive, ask yourself if it is fair to other faith.

You just added to my knowledge, thanks

Christianity. The Aramaic word for "God" in the language of Assyrian Christians is ʼĔlāhā, or Alaha. Arabic-speakers of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christians and Jews, use the word "Allah" to mean "God". The Christian Arabs of today have no other word for "God" than "Allah(culled from wikipedia).

I don't get it... what's the difference between English and Arabic as far as we Nigerians are concerned? They are both non-Nigerian languages, and were brought into Nigeria via imperialism, death, and conquest. Arabic was the written language of the North before Europeans came, and the only reason English became the official language of all Nigeria is because because it made for easier administration for the UK.
You r just calling a spade a digging instrument.
Was Yoruba not being used in d west before the Brits came in? Was Edo not being used in some parts of south before the Brits came in ?
Guy be realistic, being a coward doesn't really pay.

Stop being unrealistic....is the time of noticing as important as making the appropriate correction?
Nigeria is not an Islamic country and should be treated as such.

Is it fair to have allah written on the coat of arms of a secular nation?

You won't have an answer to that cos all you Muslims want is to conquer the world for Allah. This itself has made you all lose your soul and conscience to the point that other people's rights do not matter to you.

Mathew 16:26

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?
Quran 5:28-29 "If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you, for I fear Allah; the Lord of the `Alamin (mankind, jinns, and all that exists)."
(Al-Maaida 5:28)

"Verily, I intend to let you draw my sin on yourself as well as yours, then you will be one of the dwellers of the Fire, and that is the recompense of the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)."

Quran 5:32 Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits in the land!.

Former minister of aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode (FFK) has questioned why Nigeria has Arabic inscriptions on it’s bank notes, on the Army’s coat of arms and also why the Nigeria Police had to make Arabic language part of a CBT examination.

In a new tweet, FFK wrote:



However, a follower of the former minister questioned to know why he never did anything to change the observation when he was in government.

@Kingjoelagho wrote:



Replying the follower, Femi Fani-Kayode pointed out that he wasn't a president but a minister and that he was among those who urged former president Goodluck Jonathan to remove the Arabic inscription from the Naira notes.

The Shahada: There is no god but Allah

In Arabic: La ilaha illallah




I would not have bother to respond to your assertion because it's a straw man and an informal fallacy, but I want to respond because we are all students of knowledge anyway and we learn everyday. While I believe every nation should maintain proudly their identity and language is a very vital part of culture, I also believe we should be truthful when we are making argument or do a vital research before we make claim. I'm a Yoruba-man, muslim and currently working and living in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

The transliteration of your quoted statement about the meaning of Arabic[/b]: La ilaha illallah as The Shahada[/b]: There is no god but Allah is correct but your definition or explanation of the statement is wrong. As muslims, who truly believe and accept the shahada, what it means is that " No worshiping or associating of any idols (tree, mountain, sun,moon,sango, obatala, ogun) beside Allah (GOD). Hence the G in Ilaha (god) ( is always written with a small letter "g"wink. The statement also means total faith in GOD without what is called shirk in islam (means associating or worshipping another diety beside GOD). It's a claim to uphold the of oneness and purity of GOD. That the moon is not a saviour, not a creator, not a provider ,not a sustainer, not a keeper and not a forgiver, and that all that attributes mentioned and more are of GOD. That GOD alone is worthy of our worship, our gratitudes. He created all mankind, all visible and invisible, all touchable and un-touchable are created by Allah(only one GOD as evidence in the Bible). In the west we I come from people used to name their newborn Omibunmi or sangobunmi (that this baby was granted by diety) not GOD. While I believe religion should not take away our culture (dressing, food, language, respect for elderly people, merciful to the young ones, respect the sanctity of marriage, maintaining good relationship with all your family and break bread together), I also believe there is no reason to worship idols who cannot render any help or save us from any calamity.
