You don't even know your history so well

The Fulanis brought Islam into Yoruba kingdom

Only Usman dan fodio lines can become sultan in Sokoto. The sultan only have power over some Fulani and Hausa territory.

ezechi242:
ABOMINATION, SACRILEGE.

TimiofEde:


If that be the case, why then does the sultan sight the moon for we the yoruba moslems? And dishes out other islamic instructions for us to follow?

Is that we don't have a high powered telescope to sight the crescent? Because I know we the yoruba moslems can definitely afford to buy one, I just think we are too scared of the fulanis to go against them, we only take comfort in attacking the peaceful great Igbos for our inadequacies and that's very unfortunate.

TimiofEde:


Are you saying a yoruba moslem cannot become sultan until the end of time? Are we condemned to eternal servitude to the fulanis? This reality saddens me and we have to act fast or remain eternal slaves to the caliphate.

SLAVES TILL THE END OF TIME

TimiofEde:


Thank you for taking your time to explain this in such a civil manner and not like the uncouth helinues who'd rather throw jabs and insults.

With regards to your explanation, are you saying that we the yoruba moslems will remain eternally subservient to the grand children of uthman Dan fodio? Why can't we elevate a yoruba moslem to a position that rivals that of the sultan? Someone who can help us sight the moon without waiting for the fulani sultan as this has made the fulanis very arrogant and condescending towards we the yoruba moslems.

TimiofEde:


I only asked an innocent question that's been bothering me but you've done nothing but foam in the mouth, so I take it that you're OK playing second fiddle to the fulani like an eternal slave, well I've got news for you, I'm not OK playing second fiddle and rather receive direct instructions from Saudi Arabia than fulani sultan who belongs to a dusty tribe that's not as sophisticated as our, yoruba ronu o!

AntiChristian:
The Sultanate is an age long Islamic institution that all Muslims in Nigeria should hold on to regardless of tribe!

If the Yorubas were to have a Sultan, the Igbos too , then the Ijaw, Nupe, Tiv, Baruba, and the division goes on!

The sultanate even precedes your existence and even that of parents! And you'll like to create a rivalry based on tribe!

Your suggestion will only bring about divisions and further deviation from the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wasalam.

7lives:


I know you are confused, let me help you.
The Sultanate is an empire, with the Sultan as the maximum religious and political ruler.
The Emirs are under the control of the Sultanate, Uthman Dan Fodio 's great grand children, are the owners of the empire because the empire belongs to Uthman Dan Fodio.
So for your information, ONLY the grand children of Uthman Dan Fodio, can ascend the throne of the Sultan.
Now the joke is on you, can a Fulani ascend the throne of Alafin Oyo.
Oyo empire belongs to Oranmiyan and so the throne belongs to his grandchildren.
No Yoruba that is not of Oranmiyan lineage can become an Alafin of Oyo.
Same thing applied to the Sultanate, get a copy of the west African history, read and understand.
Shalom.

TimiofEde:


The Sultanate is not peculiar to the fulanis, they didn't invent the word, Brunei and Oman are ruled by sultans. The yorubas are a proud nation so why do we have to play second fiddle to the fulanis? It's not as if they gave us Islam, I think it boils down to the generational cowardice ingrained in our DNA

helinues:

TimiofEde:


These are pertinent questions that portends to our survival as yoruba moslems, I know my cowardly yoruba tribe lack the balls to challenge the fulani that's why they take solace insulting the great Igbos who have done nothing wrong to us but good thing I'm not as cowardly as my people and I intend to challenge the current sultan so I can become the next and first yoruba moslem sultan, amin

is not only the sultan who can sight the moon on behalf of muslims in Nigeria.

The whole situation of the Sultan being the 'Head' of Muslims in Nigeria was done by the British. There's no historical reason for this, as it was not the Sokoto Caliphate that brought Islam to the SW. Yoruba Muslims need to stand up and demand equality.

TimiofEde:


Exactly my point but we the yoruba moslems are too scared to demand for equality, we'd rather project our insecurities and chronic low self esteem on the peaceful great Igbos just to impress our fulani masters that we are serving them very loyally.

We the yoruba moslems are the reason why the fulanis disrespect the South, we are actually the weak link of the South but even after everything we do for our fulani overlords they still won't allow us sight moon or lead prayers in the mosque, egbami, who will come to our rescue and save we the yoruba moslems?

TimiofEde:


From what you wrote, are you in any way insinuating that we the yoruba moslems are condemned to eternal servitude to the fulani Sultanate?

Are you saying we the yoruba moslems will never get to sight the moon until the end of time?

Why can't we have a Sultanate that alternates between North and South? So as to promote religious character and give we the yoruba moslems a sense of belonging, we are already tired of fulani dominance but we are too scared to engage them so they don't slaughter us like beef cattle. Who can come to our rescue and save we the yoruba moslems? Egbami oo!

TimiofEde:
I'm a proud yoruba moslem from Osun but I keep wondering why we the yoruba moslems continue to play second fiddle to the fulani.

It's not as if fulanis brought Islam to yoruba land but what I don't understand is why I can't break my fast until the fulani sultan orders to do so, I also don't understand why a yoruba moslem cannot lead prayers in a fulani dominated mosque. Are we truly a conquered people? Why are we always inferior to the fulanis?

Could this inferiority complex be the reason why the gambari emir of ilorin banned us from practicing our culture in our own land?

Sometimes I feel ashamed of identifying as a yoruba man because it's so shameful how we kow-tow to the fulani and worship at their feet. Are we truly a tribe of conquered cowards?

Just look at how the fulanis slaughter us in Lagos, oyo and ogun at the slightest provocation and even push our people to become refugees in Benin Republic.

I would like NL members to proffer a lasting solution to this fiasco because it's become such an embarrassment to us as a people.

How do we solve the issue of fulani dominance over us as a people? Can we actually have our own sultan to dictate our affairs as yoruba moslems?

freeborn02:


You are not seen as an original Moslem by northern Moslems.

There is discrimination among you, yet, you call your religion the religion for the whole world. Interesting.

You registered today and everything you are concerned about is Yoruba / Fulani , Yoruba/ibo. You are not Yoruba but a mischievous person

omohayek:

I would have thought that would have been obvious when the troll referred to "the great Igbos", as if any Yoruba person would ever say such a thing unprompted. The jobless buffoon wasn't even clever enough to choose a more plausible name than "Timi" to start masquerading as a "Yoruba Muslim", a particular combination of terms only hate-filled Igbo trolls ever use.
