i think most people are getting it wrong, they are mistaken Culture with religion... If Saudi stand on greeting dere elder's or younger one's, doesn't insulnuate we nigeria as to imitate dem. There are some part of state or shud i say town in South Africa, dey grit demselve by givin eachoda a dirty Slap, niether u are an elder or young. U can attest to dis by grabin a Copy of Mr Bones Cd plate.. Dat's dere Culture, it luks ridiculous bt who are we to judge dem..
Even in indian, dey go as far as touching dere parent or guardian legs jst to show sign of respect..
Am not in support of prostrating while greeting, cos i dnt... But its total a disrespectful greeting elder's while u stand, u can easily go down witout placing ur knee or hand on d floor.. Some even go to d extend of shakin hands wit dere dad, dat's stupidity of d highest oda...
My Opinion pls

Firstly, this has nothing to do with culture. It's either an act is permissible or its not. The prophet clearly states that it's not permissible. That's all that matters. The best way to greet is by saying salamah which is even a prayer. You're not only greeting the person, you're praying for him or her

Secondly, there really is nothing disrespectful in greeting an elder while standing. People from different parts see things differently. Respect has different meanings to different people. You can prostrate to someone and still be disrespectful. Respect is not all about ekskus Sir and all that.

Regarding the question, it's not permissible because it's akin to Rukuu which is only meant for Allah. Ibn taymiyah wrote something about this. I might have to take my time to find it

And it took 7 years to get this on the FP? And you wonder why there is low participation in that section.?Let's not even talk about the anti-islamic trolls that are allowed to pollute the threads

Men can upload, but women cant and shouldn't....

I didn't know women shouldn't, just got know recently..

You undertand why, as you've stated one of the reasons yourself "fitna". You just dont want to agree because you want to be "modern".

Yes.

Are you suppose to stare at her in the first place(if seen physically)?

La!

Taking pictures is prohibited for both men and women

Abdullaah ibn Mas'ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Those who will be most severely punished by Allaah on the Day of Resurrection will be the image-makers." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, see al-Fath, 10/382).

Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Allaah, may He be exalted, says: 'Who does more wrong than the one who tries to create something like My creation? Let him create a grain of wheat or a kernel of corn.'" (Reported by al-Bukhaari, see Fath al-Baari, 10/385).

'Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "Shall I not send you on the same mission as the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sent me? Do not leave any built-up tomb without levelling it, and do not leave any picture in any house without erasing it." (Reported by Muslim and al-Nisaa'i; this is the version narrated by al-Nisaa'i).

Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him and his father) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Every image-maker will be in the Fire, and for every image that he made a soul will be created for him, which will be punished in the Fire." Ibn 'Abbaas said: "If you must do that, make pictures of trees and other inanimate objects." (Reported by Muslim, 3/1871)

These ahaadeeth indicate that pictures of animate beings are haraam, whether they are humans or other creatures, whether they are three-dimensional or two-dimensional, whether they are printed, drawn, etched, engraved, carved, cast in moulds, etc.

Photographs which are essential are permitted - such as those required for identity documents, or for identifying or pursuing criminals [e.g. "wanted" posters and the like - translator's note], or for educational purposes which cannot be achieved otherwise. The principle in sharee'ah is that we should not exaggerate about what is necessary.

Yes, it's allowed as long as you're backing up your argument with the Quran / the Sunnah.

“And do not argue with the People of the Scriptures (Jews and Christians), unless it be in a way that is better, except with such of them as do wrong, and say [to them]: “We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you; our Ilaah [God] and your Ilaah [God] is One [i.e. Allaah], and it is to Him we submit [in Islaam],” calls the believers to argue with the People of the Book in a way that is better, i.e.inviting them to Allaah with His aayaat (verses, proofs, evidences, etc.) using the clearest indicative words which proves the objective and to avoid being harsh save with such of them as do wrong. Ankabut: 29:46


What the scholars prohibit is debating with Ahlul-Bid'ah not the unbelievers


Imaam as-Saaboonee (d. 449H) said about Ahlus-Sunnah,

"They follow the Salafus-Saalih the Imaams and the Scholars of the Muslims, and they cling to the firm deen that they clung to and to the clear truth. And they hate Ahul-Bid'ah (the People of Innovation) who innovate into the Deen that which is not from it. They do not love them and they do not keep company with them. They do not listen to their sayings, nor sit with them, nor argue with them about the Deen, nor debate with them . Rather, they protect their ears from hearing their futility; things, which if they pass through the ears and settle in the hearts, will cause harm and cause doubts and wicked ideas to appear

Apparently, Ustaz Pantami just got appointed as the Director of NITDA

I wonder how he'll manage this alongside his halqah

Now that we've finally agreed to support Contact to be the mod, the next step is getting S.eun to accept it.

But what of the current mods?

We have a lot of work in our hands

Contact17:
Am not sure ooo. Don't the mods get paid? Don't think seun will accept.

I don't know whether they get paid

Well, If Se.un won't accept it, then we can move on then.

lexiconkabir:
If she(contact) would agree then it will be nice, or even you.

Lol me ke? You know I'm hardly consistent unlike the other guys here.

Here are my nominees

lexiconkabir:
Do you have someone in mind? It Will be good if we have an active member to moderate this section like you rightly said.

Honestly, getting someone to be a mod isn't rocket science. The major problem might be Seun accepting it. After all,
it's not like any one has ever complained about the mods here

Contact17 maybe we should appeal to Seun to make you or any other active person here a mod

Also, I'd like to know what the other guys think about it though before we appeal

Even the mods here never participate in any of the discussions

Mukina2 moderates 3 sections. That's too much If you ask me considering the fact that the soccer section is a very busy one so
there isn't much time to moderate this section

Contact17:
I don't know but I wrote to the super mods about the trolls. Maybe they are working on it.
If they do come back, its best not to reply or quote their posts. I have all the time in the world to report their posts.

I really doubt the supermods even have time for this section. All we need is an active member of this section

It's not even about avoiding them,they just have a way of messing up the threads and making them look tacky

I noticed there has been some sanity in this section in recent times. I haven't seen those hateful Anti-Islamic trolls on any of the
threads. Do we have new mods or what?

newnas mrolai demmzy15 lexiconkabir contact17

If we still have them here, is there any way we can get them permanently banned from this section?

Farmerforlife has already answered the question on the first page. Anyone still looking for answers is just trolling. I don't know why he's still
wasting his time on that Reyginus

Horus:
Thousands of Africans who have lived all their lives in Saudi Arabia are being repatriated daily right now, after loosing an arm or leg for some minor or trumped up offense and without regard for their comfort, welfare or rights. Racism towards Africans Moslems in Saudi Arabia is so strong it makes one wonder if making pilgrimage to Mecca should be one of the five pillars of the Muslim faith, and why Africans bother to be Muslim. Arabs do not consider Black Moslems authentic or of consequence. At best, they concede to blacks, the role of ordained slaves or animals, to be used as beasts of burden by the “superior Arab race.” The rule applies to all blacks, whether Moslems or non-Moslems and whether of Nigerian (Hausa/Fulani or Yoruba extractions),Tanzanians, Ugandans, Malians or African-Americans.

Ignorance is a serious problem in Nigeria so I'll just assume you're a victim.The problem with people like you is that you lack knowledge of 90% of the things you talk about reason why I don't even like being involved in debates here. There is difference between being a Muslim and being Arab. Whatever Arabs think of Muslims is their business. Muslims aren't following Arabs, they follow the teachings of the prophet.Being black didn't degrade Bilal and being Arab didn't save Abu Lahab and Abu Jahl. Do you even know Bilal was the first Muadhin in Islam? Have you heard of Usamah bin zayd (the beloved of the prophet), and Julaybib? Do you even know during the time of the salaf, Ata bin Abi rabah was the Imam of Makkah?.Hammaad and Ibrahim Al-Ansaari were one of the most respected scholars of the last century, both of them from Mali and they even had spaces where they delivered Halqah in both Kaaba and the madinah mosque. The Arabs never considered them Muslims right?. Al-Amin As-shinqitee is still the most respected scholar of Quranic exegesis of the last century. He's from Mauritania. I can fill the whole thread posting what the so-called Arabs had to say about him. I guess they didn't also consider him a Muslim and many more like that. As I type this, there are nothing less than 5 Nigerian scholars who have their own space to deliver lectures in Kaaba. If you carry drugs and you're caught, don't come here and cry about it. It's your fault

Who do you like most ?

Baba Suwe in his prime was better than the other 2 could ever be

That Alif-Lam-Mim got me rolling on the floor

christopher123:
But the fact is that Hausa look down on Yoruba Muslim

What's my business with what an Hausa muslim thinks about me as a Yoruba muslim lol.

And how come you people are always the trumpets telling us what Hausa muslims think

Doorh like we're supposed to leave the religion because of that

These people are very disgusting trolls. Even on that facebook group, they're there cursing people
who have chosen to practise what they believe is the truth. Smh

christopher123:
These Muslims seff...why did you call me olodo.

Yes , this Yoruba Muslim carry Muslim for head and you are not even regarded as a pure Muslim under northern standard

I haven't seen an Igbo Muslim ..there might be Igbo Muslim businessman ..that I agree

Give me 10milli will change my name to suilaman for 4yrs

That's makes Muslim glad...funny people

Which sensible Igbo man wan join terrorist ..Na business jhoor

So when did when did a whole ethnic group become the standard to measure who is a good or bad muslim.

Bro, go back to the politics to discuss your Ipob nonsense. Leave the religion section
for intelligent people. You may be as old as 39 but you sound more like an 18 year old

Not insulting you, I'm just stating the obvious

christopher123:
Oga I am in my 39s and I haven't seen an Igbo Muslim

Are they hiding ?

Don't believe link

Whether you've seen them is none of my business. You don't need to see them. They don't want to see
you either because they already know what you think about them

All I'm telling you is that there are indeed Igbo muslims and there is nothing you can do about it

You're telling me not to believe link. so what should I believe? Igberetv?

Newnas:
Olodo, I can recollect at least two Igbo Muslims, practicing Muslims with beards and cut trousers.

Guess what again, a Yoruba brother from my school served in Igboland, his wife gave birth there, the Igbos also gave her a name Ngozi, we now call the brother Abu Ngozi.

He's happily married and works with MTN now. So, serve yourself!!!

In that same East he's talking about, there are salafis there. Ustaz Isa Okonkwo being the most
famous of them all and he has an "okay" congregation

One of his lectures

Demmzy15 unfortunately I was unable to find Shaykh Mahir's video. I thought I had it in my google drive.I'd prefered Shaykh mahir's own because it covered both the term "Salafi" and "Salafiyyah" but these are very good options

Demmzy15:
Op your message is clear, what of people that term themselves "Salafi", does it make any sense? Are we not meant to call ourselves Muslims? Please don't get me wrong, I read books of scholars of salafiyyah like Ibn Taymiyyah(rah), AbdulQadir Gilani(rah), Imam Suyuti(rah), Ibn Jawzee(rah), Ibn Qayyim Al jawziyyah(rah), Muhammad Ibn Abdulwahab(rah), al Khateeb Al Baghdadi(rah), Al Fawzan(hf), Zaid Al Madakhali(hf), Rabee Al Madakhaki(hf), Saleh Suhaymin(hf), Imam Al Albani(rah), Imam bin Baz(rah), etc but is it a must you must term yourself "salafi"? I think Muslim is appropriate because this is what Allaah called us

I have a video by Mahir Al Qahtani concerning this question.Please give me some minutes to dig it out

For those who'll like to listen to Ustaz Umar Paiko's lectures, you can find a lot of them on DawahNigeria
