Bluntemperor:
But he ( the Governor) is on Point 👉, unless you don't know history or genesis.
Some of you are pretending as if you don't know that Kwara State has been under Saraki influence,since the days of when Saraki 's father was a politician then and what Have They Left For The Kwarans - after all these years,now that their no longer having such influence - you eat the fruit 🍑 of your labour.
We warned them -before now,that - ASituation,whereby Marabout( almajiris)- would be parading your Areas and State and without- Education -Training Or Sending them to Schools- have grave implications then.
So,Kwara is enjoying the seed of the Religion ☯️ they laid down in the past by their Politicians and some Traditional Rulers so,let them do the right thing,if they want Changes!

My brother the world will keep running in a cycle.

Check fashion trend, some of the trendy fashion today were what our fathers wore in the ancient times.

Today youths want to dress half naked, indirectly they want to go back to Adam's era.


By the time they exhaust that, the new generation will come back to adopt the full clothedness again and it continues to cycle like that.


In the past, men enjoyed being the sole provider for their woman and breadwinner of the family, it made them feel masculine and complete, western culture brought the shared responsibility based on feminism that preached gender equality. Before then, men has upper hand in securing good jobs and all that, but with gender equality gaining ground, things changed as women now had better opportunities in certain jobs and fields. Today it's almost on equal basis, no longer gender based. Couples now share roles and responsibilities because most women now earn more than their husbands, things that never happened in the ancient times.


Gradually women now want to take up men's roles while men wish to take on women roles or run away from responsibilities.


So don't worry, it's part of life's cycle, it will surely get to that stage and then humans will want to revert back to the old ways where women stayed at home to care for the home/kids while the men went out to work and bring back bread.

These things are nothing but cycles of life that nobody can tame except time. Only time can tame it

God bless you for this

Ok, today I was out to do an oil change and decided to branch by my favorite Afghani store where I usually buy provisions when in the vicinity. Now, I came across an organic crate of egg for $16.99, 30 medium sized eggs in a crate.
Now, I remembered I spoke with a friend in Lagos last week who priced a similar crate of egg at 6000Naira, Yes ! you heard me right! 6000Naira! Folks in Nigeria do not know how good they have it Living in Nigeria so next time you complain about Nigeria, remember a fresh organic crate of egg goes for N6000 and things are way cheaper in Nigeria compared to the western countries.

So, there is something that should make one happy living in Nigeria
I am waiting on pins and needles for the minimum wage crew.

This is annoying, try comparing the minimum wage in Nigeria to the one over there.

Stop this unnecessary comparison, it's annoying.

May Allāh forgive his shortcomings and grant him Al Jaanah Firdaous

Thank you for your comment, I was just about asking him the same question and he should also tell us what good work AA is doing in Kwara.

Are you a resident here in ilorin? Cos Its so glaring the Man doesn't have plans, no new infrastructure,he constructed a bridge at Tanke that takes eternity to open

To buttress your point, people didn't vote in Offa LG bcus the ballot papers brought to the polling unit was lesser than what was expected. So people decided they won't vote till the ballot paper is complete. To our surprise the results has been announced, yet no one knows where the vote came from.

You are making a lot of sense
I personally do not expect him to accept his reinstatement. But at the end it's all politics and a very dirty game at that

He will also criticize the governor of Kano state if he does wrong.

As we heard, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was not the choice of kingmakers in 2014, but was chosen by the government of Kwankwaso to spite Jonathan who had dismissed him as CBN boss.

Sanusi Ado Bayero, who was chosen by the kingmakers, allegedly left Kano in protest of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi's appointment. His younger brother, Aminu Ado Bayero, was installed after Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was deposed.

My fear is for Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf not to depose Sanusi Lamido Sanusi himself.

Emir Sanusi should not have accepted to return. Politicians are using him to fight their battles. He is too big for that.

May Allāh reward you abundantly

akinsmail51:
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymin (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about the reasons for doing the prostration of forgetfulness , and he replied as follows:

The prostration of forgetfulness in prayer is generally prescribed for three reasons:

Doing something extra
Omitting something
Being uncertain

Doing something extra: for example, doing an extra bow (ruku`), prostration (sujud), standing or sitting.

Omitting something: such as omitting an essential part of the prayer, or omitting one of the obligatory parts of the prayer.

Being uncertain: such as when a person is not sure how many rak`ahs he has prayed , whether it was three or four, for example.

How to offer Sujud as-Sahw when doing something extra in prayer
In the case of doing something extra, if a person adds something to his prayer – bowing, prostrating, standing or sitting – deliberately, then his prayer becomes invalid, because when he added it, that means that he did not do the prayer in the manner ordained by Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever does an action that is not part of this matter of ours (i.e., Islam), will have it rejected.” (Narrated by Muslim, 1718)

But if he did that extra thing by mistake, then his prayer is not invalidated, but he should do the prostration of forgetfulness after saying the salam. The evidence for that is the hadith of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said the salam after two rak`ahs in one of the two afternoon prayers, either Zuhr or ‘Asr, and they told him about that, he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did the rest of the prayer, then he said the salam, then he prostrated twice (the prostration of forgetfulness) after saying the salam. Narrated by al-Bukhari, 482; Muslim, 573.

And Ibn Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led them in praying Zuhr and he prayed five rak`ahs. When he had finished it was said to him: “Has something been added to the prayer?”

He said: “Why are you asking that?”

They said: “You prayed five (rak`ahs).”

So he turned towards the qiblah and prostrated twice. Narrated by al-Bukhari, 4040; Muslim, 572.

How to offer Sujud as-Sahw when omitting something in prayer
In the case of omitting something, if a person omits one of the essential parts of the prayer, one of the following two scenarios must apply:

Either he remembers it before he reaches the same point in the following rak`ah, so he has to go back and do that essential part of the prayer and whatever came after it,

Or he does not remember it until he reaches the same point in the following rak`ah, in which case the following rak`ah takes the place of the one in which he omitted that essential part, and he should make up the invalid rak`ah.

In either of these two cases, he should do the prostration of forgetfulness after saying the salam.

For example: a man stood up after doing the first prostration of the first rak`ah and did not sit or do the second prostration. When he started to recite Quran he remembers that he had not done the second prostration or sat between the two prostrations. In that case he should go back and sit as between the two prostrations, then prostrate, then stand up and do whatever is left of his prayer, and do the prostration of forgetfulness after saying the salam.

An example of one who did not remember until after he reached the same point in the following rak`ah is a man who stood up following the first prostration in the first rak`ah and did not do the second prostration or sit between the two prostrations, but he did not remember that until he sat between the two prostrations in the second rak`ah. In this case he should make the second rak`ah the first rak`ah, and add another rak`ah to his prayer, then say the salam then do the prostration of forgetfulness.

Omitting an obligatory part of the prayer – such as if he omits an obligatory part and moves on to the next part of the prayer. For example, he forgets to say Subhan Rabbiy al-A’la (Glory be to my Lord Most High) and he does not remember until he has got up from prostrating. In this case he has omitted an obligatory part of the prayer by mistake, so he should carry on with his prayer then do the prostration of forgetfulness before saying the salam, because when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) omitted the first tashahhud he carried on with his prayer and did not go back and repeat anything, then he did the prostration of forgetfulness before saying the salam.

How to offer Sujud as-Sahw when you are uncertain
In the case of being uncertain, such as if a person is not sure if he has done something extra or omitted something, e.g., he is not sure whether he has prayed three rak`ahs or four, one of the following two scenarios must apply:

Either he thinks that one or the other is more likely to be case, whether it is doing more or omitting something, in which case he should proceed on the basis of what he thinks is more likely to be the case, complete his prayer accordingly, then do the prostration of forgetfulness after saying the salam;

Or neither appears more likely to be the case, so he should proceed on the basis of what is certain, namely the lesser amount, and complete his prayer accordingly, then do the prostration of forgetfulness before saying the salam.

For example: a man prays Zuhr then he is not sure whether he is praying the third or fourth rak`ah, but he thinks it more likely that it is the third. So he should pray another rak`ah, then say the salam, then do the prostration of forgetfulness.

An example of when neither seems to him more likely to be the case is when a man is praying Zuhr and is not sure whether he is in the third rak`ah or the fourth, and neither seems to him more likely to be the case. In that case he should proceed on the basis of what is certain, which is the lesser amount. So he should regard it as the third rak`ah, then do another rak`ah and do the prostration of forgetfulness before saying the salam.

Thus it becomes clear that sujud as-sawh should be done before the salam if you have omitted one of the obligatory parts of the prayer or if you are not sure how many rak`ahs you have done, and neither of the two choices seems more likely to be the case. And it should be done after the salam if you have added something extra to the prayer or you are not certain but one of the two choices seems more likely to be the case. (See Majmu’ Fatawa al-Shaykh, 14/14-16)

This calculation is most likely correct
The net pay will be between 120k to 130k can't be higher than that. And as for the contributory pension, employer pays 10% while 8% is taken from the employee's salary

Mercylike:
Tax matter and payroll no easy ooo. Many people are just giving different figures.. I am totally confused

He already called the HR but she said they would discuss when he gets to office next week...

So he wants to know now before he approaches the HR to get explanation

Note: he got his first pay of 127k...and he thinks it is wrong as he expected 130k upward ..


Besides, employers pension contribution; is it supposed to be taken from the staff salary or the company pays that separate?

On the authority of Ibn ʿAbbas (رضي الله عنه) who said, “I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) supplicating with this:

رَبِّ أَعِنِّي وَلَا تُعِنْ عَلَيَّ، وَانْصُرْنِي وَلَا تَنْصُرْ عَلَيَّ، وَامْكُرْ لِي وَلَا تَمْكُرْ عَلَيَّ، وَاهْدِنِي وَيَسِّرِ الهُدَى إِلَيَّ، وَانْصُرْنِي عَلَى مَنْ بَغَى عَلَيَّ، رَبِّ اجْعَلْنِي لَكَ شَكَّارًا، لَكَ ذَكَّارًا، لَكَ رَهَّابًا، لَكَ مِطْوَاعًا، إِلَيْكَ مُخْبِتًا أَوَّاهاً مُنِيبًا، رَبِّ تَقَبَّلْ تَوْبَتِي، وَاغْسِلْ حَوْبَتِي، وَأَجِبْ دَعْوَتِي، وَثَبِّتْ حُجَّتِي، وَاهْدِ قَلْبِي، وَسَدِّدْ لِسَانِي، وَاسْلُلْ سَخِيمَةَ قَلْبِي

Rabbi taqabbal tawbati, waghsil hawbati wa ajib da’wati, wa thabbit hujjati, wahdi qalbi, wa saddid lisani, waslul sakhimata qalbi

(O Lord! Help me and do not help others against me, support me and do not support others against me, plan for me and do not plan against me, guide me and make guidance easy for me, and help me against those who wrong me. O Lord! Make me grateful to You, make me remember You much, make me fearful of You, obedient to You, humble before You and turning to You. O Lord! Accept my repentance and wash away my sins, answer my supplication, make my proof firm, guide my heart, make my tongue speak the truth, and remove resentment from my heart)

(One of the narrators) Abul-Hasan At-Tanafisi said: “I said to Waki’: ‘Shall I say it in the Qunut of Witr?’ He said: ‘Yes.'”

Rashduct4luv:
Question
I am a 24 year old girl. I fell in love, no dates, no meetings involved, pure love to a pure religious person. He promised to marry me and asked me to wait for him as his circumstances are difficult. I do not remember that he called me more than once. I asked him not to call me; because I feel this is wrong, although I love him. I felt that our love started going in the direction, he agreed to this feeling, and respected my opinion. He just sends me E-mails every so often via internet, so that I know his news. We have been in this love relationship for one year. I know this person and his family, and they know us well as well. I love him for Allah’s sake and sure he loves me as well. The problem is that I started receiving proposals, about 8 so far. Everytime I refuse because I promised to wait for him. Now I am confused, is what I am doing halal or haram? I pray, Alhamdulillah, all obligatory and optional prayers, and pray qiyam in the night as well; I fear I lose my good deeds because of what I am doing. Is a pure chaste love haram? Is my love for him halal or haram?

Summary of answer
Correspondence and contact between men and women is one of the doors that lead to fitnah (temptation). However, it is not haram for a man or woman to like a specific person whom he or she chooses to be a spouse, and feel love for that person and want to marry them if possible.

Praise be to Allah.

Man-woman relationship in Islam
First of all I ask Allah to guide you and grant you happiness, and I ask Him to increase the numbers of girls like you who are keen to maintain chastity and purity and adhere to the sacred limits of Allah in their affairs, among the most important of which are emotional relationships that many people take lightly, so they overstep the mark and transgress the sacred limits of Allah, and Allah tests them with problems that we read about and hear of, in which there is a lesson for every Muslim and for every wise person.

You should note that correspondence and contact between the sexes is one of the doors that lead to fitnah (temptation). Shari’ah is filled with evidence which indicates that it is essential to beware of falling into the traps of the shaytan in this matter. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saw a young man merely looking at a young woman, he turned his head so as to make him look away, then he said: “I saw a young man and a young woman, and I did not trust the shaytan not to tempt them.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (885) and classed as hasan by al-Albani in Sahih al-Tirmidhi.

Hence you did well to cut off contact with this young man, and we hope that you will stop corresponding too, because correspondence is one of the greatest doors to corruption that have been opened for people nowadays....

Feeling of love: Allowed?
This does not mean that it is haram for a man or woman to like a specific person whom he or she chooses to be a spouse, and feel love for that person and want to marry them if possible. Love has to do with the heart, and it may appear in a person’s heart for reasons known or unknown. But if it is because of mixing or looking or haram conversations, then it is also haram. If it is because of previous acquaintance, being related or because of hearing about that person, and one cannot ward it off, then there is nothing wrong with that love, so long as one adheres to the sacred limits set by Allah.

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“If love develops for a reason that is not haram, a person cannot be blamed for that, such as one who loves his wife or his slave woman, then he leaves her but that love remains and does not leave him. He is not to be blamed for that. The same applies if he glances accidentally then looks away, but love may settle in his heart without him wanting it to. But he has to ward it off and look away.” (Rawdat al-Muhibbin, p. 147)

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymin (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“A person may hear that a woman is of good character and virtuous and knowledgeable, so he may want to marry her. Or a woman may hear that a man is of good character and virtuous and knowledgeable and religiously committed, so she may want to marry him. But contact between the two who admire one another in ways that are not Islamically acceptable is the problem, which leads to disastrous consequences. In this case it is not permissible for the man to get in touch with the woman or for the woman to get in touch with the man, and say that he wants to marry her. Rather he should tell her wali (guardian) that he wants to marry her, or she should tell her wali that she wants to marry him, as ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did when he offered his daughter Hafsah in marriage to Abu Bakr and ‘Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them both). But if the woman contacts the man directly, this is what leads to fitnah (temptation).” (Liqa-at al-Bab il-Maftuh (26/question no. 13)

Useful tips
Our advice to you is that it is essential to stop corresponding with this young man, and tell him that he has to propose to you through your wali, if he really does want to get married. He should not regard his material circumstances or anything else as a barrier. The matter is simple, in sha Allah, and if a person is content with little, Allah will make him independent of means by His grace and bounty. He should at least contact your wali and do the shar’i marriage contract, and if the consummation is delayed there is nothing wrong with that. But if it remains as a promise to get married, and correspondence continues between you on that basis, this – according to the rulings of shari’ah and the experience of real life – is a wrong path that opens the door to sin and corruption. You can be certain that you will never find happiness except by obeying Allah and adhering to the limits set by His shari’ah. The permissible ways are sufficient and there is no need for haram means, but we make it hard for ourselves and the shaytan takes advantage of that.

Don’t delay marriage
Your delay in getting married is very harmful for you. You are getting older and this young man’s circumstances are not improving; you are not marrying him and you are not marrying anyone else. Beware of delaying, for that will only cause harm. You should realize that one of these men who have proposed marriage may be more religiously committed and righteous than that young man, and there may be far greater love with him than there is between you and that young man.

And Allah knows best.

Allāh's aid is sought

akinsmail51:
“Hardships have an end whose time is known only to Allaah."

So, anyone experiencing them has no choice but to be patient until that time is up. Losing patience before that time will not help anything. Patience is a must, but it is useless without prayer.

The one praying should not be hasty, and should instead engage in worship through patience, prayers, and submission to the All-Wise…

The hasty one is infringing on the function of the Planner, and this is not the proper position of a servant to be in.

The best position to be in is to accept your fate, and this demands patience. To beg constantly in prayer is the most reliable recourse.

Opposition to fate is forbidden, and infringes on the function of the Planner. Understand these points, and your hardship will be much easier to deal with…”
