Where I live has christians and considerable numbers of Muslims.

One time a mad pig from the Christian side dug out a freshly buried corpse and pleasurably had a hearty meal and left skeleton as leftovers.

The Muslim community were shocked to her ancient foundations and utterly discombobulated. One could see them going hysterical and hurling expletives and swore to viciously retaliate... How they wanted to pull that off, yours sincerely don't know.

They struck the drum of war, fanned the embers of trouble and drew their swords for blood.

...

At the end nothing happened. Call it 'initial gra gra" and you're right.

They knew they'd be crushed into bits if they attacked the Christians on such flimsy ground.

The Christians owns the community.

Since then they learned to bury their deceased more deeper. The fear of pigs is the beginning of wisdom.


A Pig from a pigs community abi? Because there's no difference at all. You and your animals have the same brain lol

You don't blame a religion because of the selfish action of others...

That's why we Muslims don't call or blame Christianity whenever IPOB, ritualist, kidnappers, armed robbers or whenever a baby factory is found...That's to show how sensible and responsible we think and I hope you try to adjust and do so.

Back then when Christian kings burnt hundred of thousandths of women accusing them of witchcrafts what were they called? Christian terrorist? Hell nah!!!

Re: Why Dead Bodies Are Buried Six Feet Under The Ground by donmik: 11:38am On Aug 30, 2022
I still wonder why some places and ethnic groups keep corps on the surface say they bury o.
Imagine grave less than 6ft to keep a fellow human being.
Those people don't have value for their own corps too.
As if they enjoy the smell or they are lazy to dig.
From ancient days till today, my people make sure 6ft is achieved.
Afterall, they bury within our residence.

WHY DEAD BODIES ARE BURIED SIX FEET BELOW THE GROUND

There are some occurrences that are extremely common in our immediate environment, but we tend to accept them as typical. It's likely that the majority of us have been present at funerals and witnessed the process of grave excavation firsthand. As a result of the fact that it is practiced in virtually every country on the planet, some people consider it to be a culture. Have you ever given any thought to the question of why humans are often buried at a depth of six feet below the ground? In the event that you haven't heard them before, I'm going to explain some of the reasons why people are buried beneath a yard of dirt today.


1 It averts the possibility of the casket being carried away by the water.

One of the reasons why individuals are buried underground six feet deep is because of this. There are times when we consistently receive persistently heavy rain, which can lead to soil erosion. There is a possibility that the casket will be carried away by the moving water if the deceased person is buried more than three feet underground. And if the cemetery is dug a little deeper, there won't be any chance that the casket will be carried away by the water.

2 It stops the spread of diseases that are easily contagious.

There are several infectious diseases that pose a significant threat to human health and are capable of being passed from one individual to another. For example coronavirus and pneumonic plaques. Other animals will not be able to unearth the diseased body if it is buried at a depth of six feet below the surface of the ground. This will prevent the disease from spreading to other animals.

3. It eliminates the possibility of the casket being stolen.

This is yet another significant factor that contributes to the practice of burying bodies at a depth of six feet. There are some people in this world who will never leave a grave without taking the casket with them and using it for their own nefarious purposes. If you bury the dead deeper, it will be more difficult for them to access them, which will assist reduce the number of instances of theft.

To prevent disease pandemic spreading is the main reason dead bodies are buried six foot below the ground, the other reasons are not much common like that stealing a casket ritual people, water washing the casket that has been taken care of by burying bodies six feet below

Majority of the ritualists are Muslim clerics nau,or don't you read news.. And how did you know ipob are Christians. Do they chant blood of Jesus when they (unknown gun men) wants to kill. Personally I think ipob wants their country, government are employers of the killers. So that it will looks as if ipob are the killers. Just like they did during end SARS,by planting thugs among peaceful protesters. APC can't deceive me with politics.

Back to our topic..
What about the 7 virgins being reward for vahulens ,we always hear. Is it true or false. I'm learning from a true muslem like you oh,so don't get tired at my questions

There's no where in the Qur'an or Hadith where 72 virgins was mentioned to anyone..It's false.

What's the address of Hell?


I do not know.

Just like I do not know from whence bones emerged from a liquid sperm cell to form a baby.
Just like I do not know from whence the sun gets its light.
Neither do I know how a tree that is just wood yet is able to give forth edible fruits like pawpaw, orange etc.
I also do not know how a seed as tiny as the mustard seed is able to produce a tree as mighty as the mustard tree. From whence did the tree emerge?

Yet, that I do not know all the above does not mean they do not exist.

So if the one that made them all possible also tells me that HELL exists, I will be foolish not to believe Him, just because I do not know the location.

There's no place called hellfire. The hell mentioned in the Bible is only taking about the grave.
Humans life end at death � just like every other living thing.
Our creator is only interested in our lives here on Earth not some fairytale Afterlife.

Nothing, exclusively nothing.

First of all, I want to believe I am talking with a Christian. This is because I want to lay some biblical foundations for you in other to thoroughly shed light on our discuss.

Unlike other creatures ( Animals, birds, fish, trees etc), A human being is a spirit, clothed with a body. God is a spirit and when God wanted to create man, He made man in His image and likeness as a spirit too, and clothed the spirit with clay called flesh or body.

Now, Spirits DO NOT DIE. The body covering the spirit (the flesh) may die, but the spirit lives on. Every other creation dies permanently, because they do not have spirit.

The question is, how and where will the spirit man live his eternity?

The bible has clearly spelt that out in the following scripture verses I will list for you:
(1.) Revelation 20:10-15
(2.) Mark 9:43-48
(3.) Mathew 25:31-46
(4.) Revelation 21:8

The above verses are in the Bible and are not fairytales. They are God's word and like you rightly pointed out, God does not do fairytale.

The verses above clearly states to you the existence of a place of eternal torture for all sinners called LAKE OF FIRE which is sometimes interchangeably used as HELL FIRE.
Yes I agree, HELL is different from Lake of fire, because even HELL itself will be thrown into the lake of fire.
