Caballero: Tuchel was willing to bring me on in the Champions League final to face penalties.

I will not lie to you, it's pitiful and heartbreaking seeing the state of things in countries built around Islamic fundamentalism. I wonder what you see in your religion that makes you such a strong adherent and wonder if at any point at all you've doubted your religion and it's principles.

You asked for it here you have it

"Well, I think he did a fantastic pre-season with us, he's a very good player and even more important a top character.

"He has both feet on the ground, he took his chance very impressively, he played very good matches in pre-season, he performed for 120 minutes against Villareal and then another strong 90 minutes against Crystal Palace.

"So now I think it's very logical that he stays with us, and he's looking for his chance here. We let some players go but Trevoh is a guy we absolutely want to keep, and this is the status for him.

This article is quite well-researched. The Buhari's Sulhu program, where "repentant" Boko Haram members are granted clemency (not amnesty as the government claims), get as e be.

The whole thing looks ominous.

Boko Haram maimed thousands of lives in the North and wrecked the lives of millions in the region, especially women and girls.

Perusing the article, one gets a glimpse of the horrid campaigns, which Muhammad and the caliphs that ruled the Islamic world after his demise, undertook against the indigenous people in Asia and Africa.

Today, the Arab World consists of 22 countries, including Saudi Arabia, Iran, Quwait, Oman, Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia, and others.

Yet, the Arab World started from Saudi Arabia, and one man orchestrated the whole thing: Muhammad.

Just look at what Boko Haram and ISWAP are doing today and multiply the atrocities by 100. That would give you a picture of how Muhammad and his followers could establish the Arab World, with over 400 million Muslims today.

Yet, the Muslims (strong believers among them) are targeting the whole world, to be ruled with iron fist — Sharia.

Today, most people won't know that Iran, Turkey, Algeria, and indeed most of the 22 countries in the Arab League were not originally Arabs and Muslims.

Most won't know that the indigenous people of Northern Africans were mainly Berbers, not Arabs as we have it today.

All these people became "arabized" and islamized mainly through wars, invasion, coercion, and intimidation by Muhammad and the series of caliphs that followed him.

I hope Nigeria won't become an Arab country or join the Arab League in the future.

People seriously need to consider these things when electing leaders in 2023. I hope the Fulani oligarchy won't spell doom for Nigeria in the near future.

With the Taliban's recent victory in Afghanistan, calls for restructuring need to be taken more seriously.

The decision to grant amnesty/clemency is a political which those in the military may/not agree with but military operation doesn't always work in counterinsurgency sometimes you adopt the carrot approach thinking long-term. This in itself has downsides which can lead to what psychologists call "cobra effect'' whereby people will engage in criminal activities knowing that they will get rewarded if they are fortunate enough to submit themselves to the authority before they're killed. Below is a book on deradicalization it discusses the practice as a counterinsurgency tool.

"Talking to the Enemy: Deradicalization and Disengagement of Terrorists"
The origin of Arabs is Yemen (Southern Arabia) then they spread upwards to the Northern Arabia to establish civilizations like that of Thamud and Sinai in modern day Saudi Arabia and Egypt. So saying that the Arab world started from Saudi Arabia is factually and historically incorrect, in order to impress your audience you intentionally/unintentionally lie in your account of history just like last year during the pandemic when you said something regarding Yahweh linking it to Yorubas. Muhammad (peace be upon him) was Arabized because his ancestor Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) was of Mesopotamia origin and birthed Ishmael, who alongside his mum settled in desert of Makkah. Refer to this link for the origin of Prophet Muhammad( http://www.prophetmuhammad.name/articles/xqndxwi-prophet-muhammads-lineage-to-adnaan.cfm)
As for your claim that people became Muslims due to wars, coercion, intimidations, this assertion maybe true or not depending on the spectrum you're looking at it from. When you are persecuted as the early Muslims were and you have to flee from your homeland to safeguard your faith, then it becomes necessary to organize an army to defend against aggressors.
I am not from the Muslims who will say Islam is a religion of peace to appear apologetic even though Islam came to preserve the following; faith, lives of the people, family ties, honor and wealth of the people sometimes force is required to enforce some of the things I just mentioned to maintain peace.
Muslims scholars past and present have written books to clarify the Creed of Muslims and the methodology of extremists who the Prophet had already prophesized that they will appear and what should be done to them by those in Authority. Imam Ahmad Ibn Hannah wrote Usool us-Sunnah, Imam al-Albani wrote Fitnah of Takfir, Shaykh Rabee bin Hadi al-Madkhalee wrote The Methodology of The Prophets in calling to Allah a refutation of Sayd Qutb and his innovated ideology of extremism, Ibn Kathir wrote in Bidayah wa Nihayah that if the extremists were to gain hold of Iraq and Syria they will corrupt those lands (he wrote this about 700-800 years ago) and here we are witnessing the carnage of Daesh.
I see no difference between you and the extremists who take things out of context to justify their crimes because you're doing exactly the same by accusing the messenger of Allah of what he didn't do and intend.
As for the Taliban blame America for their rise and fall. The scholars who are upon sound creed have warned against them before you become a kindergartner.

Donjazet I'm still waiting for your mention.

Cobham consistently develops players that are capable of playing senior football at very young ages, from League Two to Premier League and in Europe. Strong technically, tactically flexible, rounded athletes – just like Colwill, Livramento, and many others before them.

“I was speaking with Nate [Chalobah] after his brother scored. I got so emotional man. It got to me.

“Because Nate really embraced me when I came [2011]. He really took time to show me around London. When his brother scored, it was too much.”

...but ur fellow Muslim AOO1 is not in support

Hate induced ignorance is what this comment of yours implies. If you call Tjay a Muslim that means you haven't been paying attention and need not to be taken seriously.

A001:
Yes, there are imams leading people in Sokoto. Those Yorubas have spent many years in the North and have become more or less Hausa or Fulani.

They're not your regular Yoruba people that know little about Hausa or Fulani traditions.

If you interact with such people in the North, you won't even know they're Yoruba.

In South West, most conservative Fulani or Hausa Muslims won't pray behind a typical Yoruba Muslim due to the aofementioned reasons.

The issue is not as you have painted it the issue is about establishing the prayer correctly I for one would not allow someone who doesn't understand how to pray correctly lead me in prayers because it will be waste of time, if I don't know the condition of a person I will give the person benefit of doubt and pray behind the person but after getting to know that this person doesn't know how to pray correctly I will not pray behind the person again. The Prophet said in a narration that if an Abyssinian slave is appointed as a leader we should pray behind that person and obey him in that which is good and disobey him in that which is bad whenever he commands, so the issue of Imamship is knowledge based not as you think. I have led congregation consisting of different ethnicities and I'm not Hausa and I don't understand Hausa

Donjazet open a thread under Religious section and mention me then I will respond to your queries In Sha Allah. I don't want to derail this thread.

macjireh:
south western Muslims are not seen as core Muslims by those extremist...if they have their way,,they will call u guys "infidels"

You will just sit in your village and be capping, even in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Yorubas are teaching people Islam and studying as well. I have an acquaintance who is presently in KSA and he's Yoruba from Ondo State, there are Imams who are Yorubas leading people in Sokoto, the "Seat of the Caliphate".

Tuchel: “We will hunt our rivals from day one - that’s the mentality of this team.”

Lukaku: “I see ourselves as hunters. The ambition is always to win, and be competitive in every game we play.”

It does a fool no good to acquire education because he lacks common sense.

The League is a marathon not a 100m dash it's too early to write any team off I still maintain that City and United are the favourites but Chelsea aren't far off either.

BlueRayDick:
These things don't matter, he will still walk away with the EPL trophy at the end of the season.

He looked like he was losing it at the beginning of last season till he caught up with everybody and never looked back

Hehehe. Postdigger you have a text message

“It was very enjoyable and well deserved. Trevoh was so strong in pre-season, so solid [and] showed potential. He is a very humble and calm guy but he was there since day one and took his chance to show his quality.

“This is not a gift that we let him play, it was well deserved and he had a big performance against Villarreal for 120 minutes and he is robust enough to play another 90 in the Premier League, first game at home.

“This is super nice. It is what I truly believe in, that we can have the best players from abroad and famous players but also it is about Chelsea having young guys from the academy who can make it and in the end he played alongside Reece James and Mason Mount. This is very important to have this, to have these young guys and this mix.”

Al-Imām ibn al-Jawzi [may Allāh have mercy on him] said:

“It was said: ‘The example of a person who seeks the worldly-life is like that of a person who drinks [salt] water from the ocean. The more he drinks, the thirstier he becomes, until he is killed by it!’”

Mukhtasar Minhāj al-Qāsideen | Page 193 | Al-Imām ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi [may Allāh have mercy on him]

Translation: Authentic Quotes

I remember mentioning here that Trevor should be given a chance in midfield due to his ball playing abilities and physical strength and I was laughed at that he's not Chelsea quality, though Ibime differed and said he will come good as a CB. Well done to Trevor he's done himself a whole lot of good, his upside will be tremendous if he can maintain his composure and if he doesn't reach that he will be a good squad player at worst.

Tuchel on Lukaku -

“He has the speed, the power, the physique and the experience. He has Chelsea in his heart, so I think he will be an excellent addition.”

Thomas Tuchel -

“We will hunt our rivals from Saturday onwards. We see ourselves as hunters - that’s the mentality of this team.”

MorataFC:
amoto amoto, nice job, any update on Ziyech's injury.

For now no concrete news regarding the time he will spent on treatment table, I expect the coach to give an update during his presser in few moments from now.

"Playing such a big final, delivering under pressure and doing it all the way through in the Champions League, and then winning such a big trophy at the end of it, I think that’s a big, big shared experience that we will have for the rest of our time together."

• Mendy nominated for UCL Goalkeeper of the Year.

• Azpilicueta and Rüdiger nominated for UCL Defender of the Year.

• Kanté and Jorginho nominated for UCL midfielder of the Year.

Itsrm:
So I went to watch all goals Lukaku scored for Inter and apart from his penalty technique, I was not impressed at all.

I also noticed that he tends to place most of his shots to the right of the goalkeeper and I won't be surprised if most of them end up getting saved since goalkeepers can anticipate where the shot is going.

I pray he comes good for us and if he does, the EPL trophy has only one destinations this season.....London

Goalscorers have their signature goals yet most times goalkeepers do fail to save those shots, it's not always about the technique but quick decision in front of goal that counts. Having varied shooting techniques is a recommended skill to have but it's not a guarantee that you will score more than those who don't possess such.
