If you think people are against RUGA because we don't want a situation tomorrow where one Abdulkareem Wada is a bonafide indigene of Ideato LGA in Imo state, then you are senseless.

NwaAmaikpe:




So it's now a sin to say your mind?
From personal experience, I know no one is more racist than the one who openly criticizes other racists for being racist.

We keep shying away from the truth.
Studies in Sociology and Anthropology show that discrimination is a natural social response.
Some of us can not eat in the same plate with a Fura-Dununu-eating Fulani man.

It may be discriminatory, but it's in us. Even in the Bible, (Genesis 30). Laban separated mottled, striped and streaked animals from his flock.

It is a natural instinct to be racist or race-conscious and that's why the half-caste or Lebanese will attract unnecessary attention on the streets in Nigeria.

It's a shame that fellow blacks have not built a thick skin for racist bashes. I have.
Why should you thrive in a whiteman's land and still demand equality from them.

We are intruders and that's their land. We belong in Africa and the Carribeans hence should relate to their pain because we've gradually recolonized their land.

Is that not the same reason we're kicking against RUGA in Nigeria?
Simply because we don't want a situation tomorrow where one Abdulkareem Wada is a bonafide indigene of Ideato LGA in Imo state.

If you relate to this, then you should relate to why a typical English man should be mad that a Bukayo Saka is playing for England.

The least Bukayo shoulda done to show appreciation to England for being there for his parents was to score that damn goal.

Did the prophet ask you to add money?

When we start to understand the essence of things we will become more tolerant. There are a lot of things we adjusted to accommodate progression in Islam due to its importance and I can give you several examples.

AbooTasleemah1:
That's the problem... This religion needs no modification whatsoever. What was recommended is that you can add money to whatever you're giving out, not that you can replace it with money. Islam is not going beyond the boundary set by the Messenger (salaLlaahu' alayhi wassalam)

The essence is to feed someone, isn't it? Look at the scenario of 5 people giving 3 cups of rice each to the same person, The question is what will the person cook it with? Some don't even have cooking fuel let alone pepper or meat. Is he expected to eat only rice? So what happens is the receiver eventually trades it with what he needs and unfortunately gets lesser value for it.
Some give millets or maize. Do they even know the process of turning such things into food?
The other scenario is 5 people giving 1k each which is 5k. By His grace, he will not only be able to feed himself but also his families with good meals and even have leftovers.
Finally, I am not against giving staple food, but I will only wish our Muslim brothers don't impose their ideology on others especially when it is also being supported by at least one of our revered imam. If you want to give food then good if others preferred money even better in my opinion. Allah Knows best.

please contact me. I need some important information as soon as possible. Or send contact information please.
It will be well appreciated.

there oga patapa! over all leader of the islamic nation in africa then, bowed down so low for a woman so tey he was almost licking her shoes and yet they did not see it as haram!

islam and hypocrisy is like 5 and 6!

wey that zuma meme self?

Its unfortunate you dont know the difference between sardauna and sultan of Sokoto. To think you got so many likes for it shows we are still far behind in Nigeria.

Here is a list of the sultan of Sokoto. Let me know if you can find Ahmadu Bello's name.

Your number is wrong.. need mileage. Interior and engine pics.. totally interested.

MakeWeTalk:
Explain this then

Surah 5:51 (Shakir)
O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other;
and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.

That is a wrong translation of the arabic word there is awliya which is better translated to allies or protectors.. simply reading the verses that follows after that would have enlighten you that it was talking about the hypocrites in the muslim ummah.. If you want broader explanation feel free to ask.. Allah knows best.

Inflation is well understood.. But i have a question.. What if the money printed are used for infrastructures/ Technology/Arms and so on without actually giving it to the public in terms of gift or load. Wouldnt that make sense and if not why?

kogistar:
so, wet cell can't las

It will if well maintained.. However, the stress of maintenance is the issue here and trying to check one thing or the other in the battery.. As for dry cell .. Deep cycle batteries to be precise they are very good.. I use just 2.. I dont connect my refrigerator to it.. I actually have a refrigerator and a deep freezer.. and the deep freezer remains frozen even after 4 days of no light so i dont see any reason to put them on inverter batteries.. But truly it doesnt only saves money on the long run,The stress involves with Generators can drive anyone mad.
Stress of Generators.
It can decide to stop working at a time you cant get anyone to fix it.
The starter can stop working anytime / the rope can snap off from constant pulling..
Noise
General maintenance
spark plug issues.
Fuel consumptions and many more..
If you do a simple maths with running on generator and inverter you will agree inverter is 3 times better in all aspect.
Dont get me wrong i still have a 2.5kva generator which i hardly touch. But just a back up for my food items in the freezers and the pumping machine.

kogistar:
but u can't repair dry cell

Why do you want to repair something that will last 3 - 5 years?..

Here is my take on this inverter issues.. Firstly anyone thinking of having a solar inverter instead of the normal one should understand that you must be looking at a cost of over 700k for a good reliable one.

I bought an inverter last year august and its still giving me 3 - 4 days of power if i can use it only 6 hrs a day for what i need.. Now this is exactly what i will like to share, inverters are the best only if you know how to use them. You must at first get a good one and good batteries which is the most important of all.. The second most important thing is the load/usage.. whenever anyone hears about inverter i am usually asked some questions like will it carry fridge, ac, microwave, washing machine and the rest then i laugh. The truth is that its an alternative to our Power crisis not a cure and i can guarantee you that even solar power isnt a cure either because you still have to rely on batteries.

To cut the long story short is this.
Buy a good 1.5kva inverter with 200A batteries x 2 or x 4(dry cell ooo). I use just 2 batteries anyway.
and get a professional to install it in such a way that only the useful stuffs will be on it like your fans, power savers and tv sets. and final do not use your inverter over night.. Just get a rechargeable fan and enjoy your sleep believe me your inverter will work as if its not stressing itself.

Final note is that always off the inverter when you hear the low battery sound. Make sure it doesnt switch itself off.. this kills the battery..

A simple question. Can something come out of nothing?

Only fools will not blame the current government.. Subsidy or no subsidy.. They are owing and they should pay up.. The truth imo is that the present government is doing this purposely because to them they have nothing to lose any longer.. As if subsidy is a strange disease for naija.. Those idiots talking about when Gej wanted to remove it back in 2012 are just pure goats if they think oil price would normalize at 140 - 150 naira per litre.. We would have been buying it for 300 naira per liter by now except if no be naija we dey.. No price control at all.. Btw what happened to the funds from the Partial removal?.. That should have been used to gradually repair our refineries.

patrickmuf:
Has the Venezuelan President not been working with OPEC for the past couple of month to stabilize the price of crude oil at $100 per barrel? It's only dullards like you that want everything presented in simple terms before you get the drift...

You are right.. Blinded by hate and ignorance they wont provide evidence or look it up but just come here and make the forum uninteresting and boring.. Gone are those days of great minds..

patrickmuf:
Only fools still use this lines...Provide evidence of the statement you quoted or stfu!!!

Take it easy on them abeg.. Too many kids on Nairaland these days...

Ramanto:
The best in the sight of God is the one that fears Him the most. King Of Saudi is not a benchmark for rating good or bad

Dont mind them.. They keep shouting King of saudi as if hes the king of all muslims.. And you will think most of them are intelligent enough to understand some things are call courtesy. Just like we have in most cultures, courtesy in religion is not left out.. Moreover, nobody is calling for his hands to be cut off whatsoever.. Its just a simple discussion which am sure GMB knows but his position atm might not give him some privileges which is perfectly understandable.. Even a muslim is allowed to eat pork at some circumstances.. But to use the king of saudi as a benchmark is pure ignorance on their part.

Salam.

lastpage:
So, you are now more "Islamic" than the King of Mecca!

See fanaticism on a "Nigerian levels"!

Lastpage!

I thought by now religious figures dont represent the whole religion.. Just like i cant judge the christian with what goes on in the Vatican or among religious leaders. That being said i think we should not create more problems for ourselves but that does not negate the fact that its islamically wrong..

My take here is if its Islamically wrong then its wrong regardless whoever is involved.. This is not about judging or condemning its just wrong.

Salam.

omooba969:
@lucky,

You are the misleading LIAR cos the rivalry btw sunni&shia is shocking. If u r well informed of wot happens outside 9ja( in d muslim world ) then u will knw dat BOKO menace is only a storm in a tea cup. Plz be well informed abt world news & cut down on watching Africa Magic & Channels Tv.

Gud day to u.

You are the one confuse bro if you depend on the media for your sources.. I am not claiming there are no differences or rivalry but answer this question yourself.. Do they both practice the 5 pillars of islam?.. Interpretation and school of thoughts are a different ball game entirely.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_of_two_squares
http://www.themathpage.com/alg/difference-two-squares.htm

I am always willing to learn new things but my simple research did not agree with the bolded as there is no excemption. In mathematic, a can be equal to b


But finally I have to admit that every point the denominator ends in a subtraction that equals zero the whole thing ends as undefined making the cookie crumble. So theorem fallacied.

Cool.. Yes in Maths a can be equal to b.. but not when using difference of two squares.. Except if am missing something.. Because that will just end up as zero.

MrOlai:
Says who?

Mr man, go back to school! The person is indeed a great mathematician. He is 100% correct!

hmmm I will get back to you on that one but i insist for difference of square to be applied a must be a different number to b .. but how about not solving the brackets before division.. when (10-10)/(10-10)...

MrOlai:
The calculation is 100% mathematically correct. All the steps are correct. Kudos to the mathematician!

However, in Mathematics, 0/0 is considered undefined. In fact, 0/0 could be proved be equal to several numbers, just like the mathematician proved that 0/0 = 2.

Once again, kudos to the mathematician!

For those of you condemning the mathematician, you need to go back to school!

calm down. for difference of two sqaures to be used A must not be equal to B..

sorry bro hes wrong.

teemy:
I first had to explain the difference of two squares.

You are funny.. for difference of two sqaures to be used A must not be equal to B..

sorry bro..

Setaje:
U can't no if she bleached or not so I laugh when men say they don't like girls that bleach. How can u differentiate. Would u be asking for their childhood pictures everytime. She looked like she has been fair from scratch. They have mad ass creams and even drugs that will turn them to half caste in no time. It's a shame. This thing has become so acceptable and we all laugh about it because it's women that are mostly affected. The discrimination is more than paper talk. I fear for the generation of dark skinned women yet unborn.

You are completely wrong IMO.. Even if she successfully deceives the man.. Think about your dark children.. Will they come out bleached?..

iliyande:
I have nothing against that because I have strong evidence on my allegations.

Please share your strong evidence and lets analyse and learn.. To me forum like this are for information, awareness, Learning and so many other things.. If we truly want to get along with each other we should avoid conspiracies without proof.. If there is any do tender.

I do my best to be as objective as possible and i give evidence / references at will. I mean that's the only way to substantiate any claim.

Hero10001:
Okay, is there any meekeness greater than these;
They aint parables.

Matt 5:45, But I say to you, love your enemies and bless the
one who curses you, and do what is beautiful to
the one who hates you, and pray over those who
take you by force and persecute you.

Mark 12:31, 'Love your neighbour as yourself .."

Luke 6:29, If someone slaps you on one cheek, offer the other cheek also. If someone demands your coat, offer your shirt also.

Matt 5:5, Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

That was Jesus talking to "every faith" and the list is endless, else you have a different definition for meekeness..

Unlike the hate speeches by moha and his likes.
(I don't wanna put the quranic verses)
" If someone puts their hands on you
make sure they never put their hands on
anybody else again".
-Malcolm X.

However, I said pple won't lie on moha for anything cos if you lie on Jesus, it won't sell cos we'rall know the truth, e.g you cant tell us that Jesus raped kids, killed men blah blah?! Omg!! cos it didn't happened at any point of his life on earth..The guy is clean and blameless.
I think same thing should apply to moha when pple lie on him, you dare em to point to where it was recorded.


I'm not disputing the fact that christian don't breed terrorists too but extremism is bad.
I think what we need is love, cos love conquers all and that's why the greatest commandment of Jesus is Love.
If there is love, there won't be provocations or ts likes, it will bound us together and we will live in peace.
However, such won't happen cos this is earth where the devil is king somehow blood must flow to balance the ecosystem.
Over 60million pple dies yearly, if there aint no killings who would give up life willingly?

Well, this discussion will go down the wire if we don't stop now.
I object to violence because violence is the last refuge of the incompetent and when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.

May the good Lord guide and protect us from every fiery darts of the wicked IJMN Amen.

I agree with you in some cases but what am saying is that you can pick and choose selected verses that suit you. In as much as there are verses that are non violent there are also some that are violent in the bible spoken by Jesus so stop selecting to suit yourself.. We are in a discussion to learn theres no point holding back verses.. State the hate speeches in the quran and lets hear it.. You said muhammed (pbuh) rapes kid(s) i will like to see a verse or see some reference please..

About Jesus cant be lied on because y'all know the truth.. If all christians like you claim knows the truth why is it for fact that 90% atheist have christian /catholic backgrounds?.. And enough books have been written why they believe Jesus Dont exist. Talking about all know the truth.. This is a simple truth anyone can be lied on same way several words have been attributed to the person of Jesus but they are not actually Jesus words which is recorded in the bible is that a lie? If you want evidence let me know..

This is the kind of discussions we need with evidences so as to learn and appreciate each other more. You talk about love but whats love when we neither understand nor respect each other.. We should be open minded and learn from each other and appreciate why this brother reasons like this or that not pretend that we should be the same in every aspect. We should all object violence but i still stand to the fact that terrorism/extremism is not a monopoly to any religion.

Salam.

iliyande:
My final opinion on this is that:

I am not in support of provoking moslems, not because I am afraid, but based on the teachings of Jesus Christ on the love for our enemies.

I know that moslems especially from the North hates christians, (I am from the North) they kill and burn our churches at a slightest provocation.

I am sorry to say this, but the truth. Boko Haram was initially created or formed to wipe christians away from the North. But trust JESUS, he turned things around for ONLY THOSE WHO TRUST AND BELIEVE IN HIM.

lastly, please anyone who is provoked by my writeup should please forgive me in the spirit of Christ Jesus. I love you all. JESUS CHRIST IS SURELY COMING BACK FOR HIS PEOPLE.

Well understood and of course no offence taken.. At the same time ask for forgiveness because you might be wrong about your inference about BH created to wipe christians from the north. Thats why in terms of conspiracy or saying something we dont fully understand we say Allah knows best. I agree that the north hates christians but dont forget they hate anyone who is not hausa/fulani because we have heard them kill yoruba and other ethnic groups at the slightest provocation so i believe it has more to do about their nature as an ethnic group rather than religion.

As for Bokoharam i think its more political than religion IMO.

Like i said Allah knows best.

Slimmos:
my bro come to the north and u would see imams n islamic scholars saying derogatory things abouy Jesus some event resort to saying he is noting and powerless. Bro u need to listen to many islamic preaching or wazzzi, they always insult christians and Jesus everyyday

Lol.. First i will like to disagree with whatever that goes against the teaching of the prophets and those imams are either illiterates or blinded by tribalism but using religion as a facade. You should try to listen to real educated islamic scholars online like Zakir Naik, Jamal badawi and so on. On the other note pastors also preach against Islam as well.. come on bro.. i can recollect even Islam was painted the anti-christ, the last election was an eye opener. I can give you several books from pastors to evangelist that has written a lot of hate about prophet muhammed (pbuh) so dont go there abeg. What we should look at is what the book actually teaches and not what people do.

See We should respect each other simple. Remember the pen is mightier than the sword..

Say no to violence of any form.

Curvinus:
Has anyone ever heard of Christians opening fire on innocent students in their dormitory in the dead of the night?

Has anyone ever heard of Christians slaughtering parents before their children and chanting the name of a supposed deity?

Has anyone ever heard of Christians beheading men and serially asaulting women with such diabolical gusto just because they share a different faith?

Ever heard of Christians bombing fellow human beings in markets, mosques, churches, motor parks and even schools in the name of religion?

Ever heard of Christians taking up arms against others and trying to violently destroy the norm in the name of religion?

Is this what tolerance and respect means to you?

Lol.. I can say yes to at least 90 percent of your questions if am not mistaken. If you want references/ proof just say it.

Enjoy your night.

pneumaticos:
For me to see Him shows that he is ready to meet anyone who wants to meet him

I prefer you see Him yourself since you intend seeing him for record purposes

Study romans and corinthians before sleeping this night

Put Him jesus to a challeng as one of his creatures

He is always ready to meet you

You see you just did the same mistake most i have met who claimed to have seen the person of Jesus makes.. You refuse to answer the simple question by evading it.. Thats totally unfair because i was about to show you something.. The questions are still begging for answers though.

Thank you.

Hero10001:
Bro, the crusade has nothing to do with moha's paintings? Since you insists, we may discuss it lightly.
Okay, the crusade (part 1-6) was about how Christian knights waged a religious war against the Muslims in Jerusalem in an attempt to
reclaim the Holy Land.
Both parties were well prepared for the war and they got their fair share of the war.
David Mcafee ones said; "Isn't it amazing that, historically, the
"Prince of Peace" has most often been
introduced to new cultures through extreme
violence? European and American
colonialists bring this disparity to light in a
way that makes me wish that forced
conversion didn't work so extraordinarily
well".


In another context, he said "It’s not a religion, it’s a relationship!'
Without the religion, without the archaic and
flawed holy texts, there wouldn’t be anything
for you to manufacture a 'relationship' with.
Without the wars and forced conversions key
to the religion’s spread across the globe, it
may have died out long ago like so many
others have. If that were the case, you
wouldn’t know the characters of Jesus or God
or Muhammad or any of the tales and myths
associated with a particular faith. Religions
concern themselves with preserving and
worshiping these myths as realities, without
regard to substantial evidence to the
contrary"

Yet there is no doubt the Crusades contributed
greatly to changes in Europe. The effort of
raising armies and providing supplies for
Crusaders stimulated the economy; trade
benefited, as well, especially once the Crusader
States were established. Interaction between the East and West affected European culture in
areas of art and architecture, literature,
mathematics, science and education. And
Urban's vision of directing the energies of
warring knights outward succeeded in reducing
war within Europe. Having a common foe and
common objective, even for those who didn't
participate in the Crusade, fostered a view of
Christendom as a united entity.



With your eggs analogy, tolerance and friendship is all what we need, we must be friends to really respect each other and friendship- my definition- is built on
two things. Respect and trust. Both elements
have to be there. And it has to be mutual.
You can have respect for someone, but if you
don't have trust, the friendship will crumble.
Islam lacks trust since its follower tends to kill at the slightest provocation.

Matt 18:22, Jesus said to him, "I don't tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.
... If he does not ask us to forgive him, yet we are not at liberty to follow him with revenge and malice, but Islam won't take one fourth of s.hit Christianity takes.
And that's why a lady said; you can mess with Jesus but not with moha another said avoid moha if you don't want bloodsheds.
Pple won't lie on your moha for anything, is it not what was written bout him in the quran they're trying to paint?!
Islam is becoming increasing intolerable, respect yourself and others will respect you.

Say no to violence.

Have a good night rest bro.

Hmmm thanks for the info which is unnecessary because i was referring to the spanish inquisition sorry if i didnt make that clear earlier and i wasnt referring to the fact that they actually fought the war but pointing it out to you that christianity has his large share in terrorism and still up to date. If you want references just say it.

To answer the second you made a very good point by accepting what we are all asking for RESPECT. You said Islam respect but dont trust but i beg to differ if the poster or artist have respected other peoples believe then we wont be here having this discussion.. Trust is something huge that is built over time but respect has to come first bro. I dont know about you but i respect all my friends but there are some i dont trust with certain issues and we have been friends for almost 20 years now and it hasnt crumble and i dont see it crumbling because i respect them for who they are.

As for Jesus(pbuh) comment well he speaks in parables sometimes, exaggerate and most of the time over his disciples head.. Just like the verse that he told them to get sword to harm themselves is that for protection?.. Or the parable where he told them to bring is enemies here and slay them before him? and many more.. I agree we must learn to live with one another but dont forget Jesus wasnt the meek and gentle Jesus yall described him as just read the bible or if you want i can give you more reference.

We should learn to forgive other but you and i know they did it on purpose. We should also condemn provocations in the name of freedom of speech as well. As the quran says.. Surah 42: verse 40 - 43 paying close attention to 43 it says and i quote. "And verily, whosoever shows patience and forgives that would truly be from the things recommended by Allah."

Tell me what is written in the quran is about the painting.. You said people wont lie on muhammed(pbuh) for anything?.. are you for real? Maybe because you are not a muslim.. I have a collections of lies written against him..As long as i don't abuse anyone's mother or believe If abusing my Mother or Religious believe will make me intolerable then so be it..

Btw the bible reference you gave was talking about a brother in same faith.. Maybe you should give me another reference.

Thank you and goodnight.

Its not just about study,..question the authority involved

Ask them about you,
The essence of life
Let them prove themselfs in your life

If you are yoruba,its easy
The muhamamed you talked about...you have never seen him
Its easy for you to say you.have seen the power of allah by the things around you....

For me..i have been tutored by christ himsel.....he is not dead

I have seen him....you cant see him and remain standing friend.....He is love personified...i Him and i knew this was the creator......before this
I had tested others including allah.....i discover that whatever you may call allah is no match for muhamed himself,but lack of knowlege made muhamed choose the wrong path

Actually allah should be a slave to muhamed.....or remain an eternal spirit rabel but muhamed choose to be a slave to a hell bound spirit

Allah fears me....he is my slave

Thank you.. I understand where you are coming from.. I must say your inference about Allah and muhammed(pbuh) is funny. However,Let me ask you this. You said you ve seen christ and from the context of your reply in person. Can you please describe him for me.. I need it for my collections please.

Need his complexion, Height, eye color, Hair color and Size (slender, slim, fat e.t.c).

American knows nothing about christianity,the pick up the religion like most europeans country.ISLAM has many bad patch that they fail to cover yeah,but the bible has been re-structured to make it look perfect,that why some european still don't believe in christianity...

Bad patches?.. Please give examples..

I agree with that re structured statement abt the bible, However if you will agree with me that's exactly what the quran has also said about the bible about 1400 years ago. If we are ready to open our minds then we can talk things straight and simple. I know some muslims have done a lot of bad things but that doesnt mean Islam supports. I can only speak for myself and i can tell you this if something is wrong i will be the first to admit it but after looking at the evidence.
