@osisi
SICKO

@osisi and the likes.
Are you even Christian? I have to ask this because your language is otherwise. WHy are you so eager to put down every prophet that had more than  one wife as having done wrong.
Did Jesus ever speak ill of any of the prophets before him? If you are not sure, please go back to the bible and read very well.

Also if you want to attack Islam, go to the right thread, you are not really interested in answering the question or having anyone answer it.

And again, if your dad was a polygamist muslim and you had a rough time for it, please do not blame Islam. Cos really, I do not know what your issues are.,,,seriously

@KOBOJUNKIE

I am at work, I cannot IM but thanks for your response. I understand it to mean that the person built it himself. I am not very tech savvy, I thought that he purchased the package from someone.
I will however try to research it and see if I can build it myself

@Kobojunkie

I tried to IM or email you but I see you have nothing on your profile. My email is ayinba@yahoo.com.
If you have more info about this $5000 solar energy, I will appreciate it and hey! I am not trying to make friends. I read your post and I just need more info.

Thanks

It is quite easy to see who needs serious help between you and I. I rarely get personal on this website and I am not starting now. Again conduct a poll, confirmed or suspected cases of HIV. Tell me if the majority are polygamous. You do not get STD from marriage, it is from SEX. and there is a lot of that going around with or without marriage.

To the males who vehemently oppose Polygamy and give examples of thie okada driver with two wives, I sense jealousy.
For the females, hmmnnn, I wonder if they are married (first wives with 2nd wife), their husbands are planning to marry a 2nd wife, or they are actually attracted to it.

Some women will actually prefer to have their husbands cheat on them than to have a 2nd wife.
Some of the guys here are only listing sexual advantages, there is alot more to polygamy than having extra women to sleep with. This is the mindset that makes polygamy bad. SO it is the men really, not the practice

@+osisi, you seem well versed. Remember though that Islam permits men to marry up to four, so it is their business if they choose to do it. I said this because you came after Muslim practice. How do you explain the christians who do it assuming are following christianity as practised today. Please quote some biblical verse.

I have an aunt who was married to her husband by the first wife. My aunt is spoilt but unbelieveably beautiful, great homekeeper but akebaje, she was divorced at this time with a 6 year old daughter (she was first and only wife, ex did not remarry). This is the one I witnessed. So many other that I heard. So not every woman wants to have her man all to herself, note, NOT EVERY woman.

Bottom line, polygamy is not the root of our problems. Take a poll. The commercial sex workers in Italy (of Nigerian descent), the ojuelegba, allen etc girls, the university girls in Nigeria who prostitute themselves, see what backgrounds they are from. I can tell you that you will find a Polygamy is a meagre minority in these groups.

As for women marrying multiple husbands, it defies any moral logic more because of the woman than the man. However, women that feel the need for extra  men always find a way to get it, be they single, married monogaous, polygamous or otherwise

@MOST REPLIERS

I am utterly disgusted at some of the replies in here. I am a Nigerian, I do not deserve to be treated badly. Some of you here are actually demanding to be treated like animals or less. If you continue to receive and accept subhuman treatment,it will not go away.

What kind of psyche have we here? I am well respected at my work and school place in the US and they know I am a Nigerian and I am not the only one. Every society has its ills but please it is sickening when we begin to generalize. A lot of Nigerians are making wonderful contributions both at home and abroad. It is an insult when a Nigerian generalizes. For those who have been fortunate too see how good human/customer service works, education is the key. Demand good service, it may take time but the sacrifice is well worth it!

Hi nairalanders, kindly have someone supply me with info about Ultimate suites in Rama Estates Ogudu GRA.

Is it a good hotel?
What is the address?
Contact phone number?

Or a better hotel in comparable price range.

Thanks a zil.

@zigbo. FOllowing ur post in school anthem, I would like toget some info from you about your school. my email is ayinba@yahoo.com.

Thanks

nazzyon:
@ that age fasting is obligatory for Muslim children and I know it has to be the same for Christians too.

The person you need to talk sense into is the Pastor that approves the fasting or possibly parents should make sure their kidz stay away from the church pending the time the session is over.

Another option is, you or any other member of the church should take it as an obligation. He/She should present the situation another pastor in union (If you are celestial, report to another outside Celestial pastor).

Religious Leaders (Pastors/Alfas) will never sit down and watch some dickhead spoiling their show.

For God's sake, this thread is regarding purported child abuse in a church, why do you have to bring muslims into it and are you the authority on Islam? What kind of people are these??

How often have I almost posted a reply on this topic and I just thought, "it's not worth it"

For all those who genuinely wish to know, Allah is the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth. He sent the prophets and messengers before sending Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). Muslims believe in Allah and all the Prophets and their messages. We make no distinction amongst them. For those who continue to blaspheme, ignorance is not an excuse to do this. You owe it upon yourself to find and know the truth.

On a final note to all decent readers and posters, you really do not want to be clothed in a white garment and get into a scuffle with a soot covered person.

Again answer to the question is "ALLAH" Deal with it

They are on (true) guidance, from their Lord, and it is these who will prosper

Assalama alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuhu.
I have observed the educational playing field in Nigeria for a while now with some disgust. I figure that it is better to do something than complain or do nothing.

This topic is inviting ideas from Muslims at home and abroad. I will be collecting data for the next six months and will update this post as best as I can. You do not need to post your ideas on this forum. We know what will likely happen. However serious consideration will be given to e mails sent to kemgbamila@aol.com.

This is the idea collation step. Ideas on location, programs offered, tuition etc will be greatly appreciated. I hope to draw up a proposal in about six months then I will start the funding efforts.

Thank you in advance. May Allah accept it as an act of Ibadah, Amin

"Olorun" = "Oni" ="the owner" "Orun" = "the heavens".

So will a person calling on to Olorun be calling on a "God" totally different from "God"? Wake up people!

The question really is simple, What do Arab christians call God?  Allah.  Deal with it . Allah is God in English Language.

Arguments to the contrary can be likened to a jew saying Jehovah is completely different from YHWH/Yahweh.

@LOLA4EVER.
It is truly refreshing to read from a logical person on this website. I am impressed at your demeanour in the face of insults from  . Suffice to say, keep up the good work. God, Allah, Chineke, Olorun sees all of us.

Peace

I do not want you to waste your hard earned money to browse these websites. Soundvision.com is one I am sure of. i will send you an email. The people taht love rasullullah will not mislead you.

Stay strong, aand keep the faith.

I need information about MICA in Lagos. I searched for their website but found none. Any info will be appreciated.

Also I understand NASFAT is a great resource for muslims. Please utilize these meetings because constant positive reminders and admonition will go a long way to help one keep the faith.

I love you all

I guess it is way easier for people to say negative things than to write positive things. Some people seem to revel ( actually rejoice) in the state of our country. If we cannot fix it, we should not make it worse. You should know that your negativity iss not making things better.

Please, watch your language (s)

I have looked over the 17 pages of Oprah show transcript that was aired on April 13, 2007. I found that the show focusssed on various typess of scam. nigeria was mentioned, Russia was too, US too but at no point did I see this ""statement"". Oprah is not perfect but she has helped more people than a lot of other rich people can lay claim to.

If she therefore never said this, how do we justify our posts?

I looked it up on google and you tube, I could not find a direct link to this story. Please let us try to verify our sources. She aired a show about internet e mail scams but I will try searrching for the transcript. So far I have not found the quote.

GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please, we the people on this website/forum are Nigerians (mostly) and other people non-Nigerians that can actually read and understand what we are writing. (surprise).

I totally agree with those who say we need to confirm that she said this, however, I cannot reconcile those who sound like they are "happy"?? or feel "validated" by this piece of news. I am a Nigerian and I am not more corrupt than the average American, Chinese, Indian, European. In fact, I am less corrupt beecause I am a minority and I will not get way with what they would get away with.

Please dudes and dudettes, watch what you say. We cannot keep blaming our government, the first (actually only) person that you can change is you. The government did not make you type this 'weird response" about Nigeria. Remember, give a dog a bad name and hang it. You may think that you are playing but it's way easier to destroy (what you are doing) than to build.
A word is enough.

Salaam alaikum bros and sisters,

I want to say thank you to all the people who post here for the sake of Allah. I also have additional important messages for us all. Pardon me, i will not be quoting verses or Hadiths, That can be an assignment /quiz with a prize attached.

---Allah says to us in the Holy Quran that Prophet Mohammed SAW is a perfect example for us.
If you think deeply about this it will be enough as a guiding light to understand Islam and behave in an Islamic way.

---You and I are Muslims, we are not ISLAM. ISLAM is perfect, Why? Because Allah said so. We on the other hand are not perfect but we can strive and this is why Allah gave us the guidelines to attain this. He wants us to strive, that is what is important.

---If you hear something done by muslims anywhere in the world, the first thing you ask is "What does the Quran say about this?", If you are unable to satisfactorily answer this, ask yourself "what will Rasulullah SAW say about this?", If your answer is still missing. Ask those who have knowledge. It is alright to ask from multiple sources (Imagine how we try to find a cure when we are ill), seeking the pleasure of Allah is even more important. At the end of the day, the onus lies with you because in your heart, you will know.

---Please when you post here or elsewhere, think about it "will Prophet Mohammed SAW speak or write this way?" It is easy to sin but it is even easier to make the effort not to sin.

---Whoever cleaned this post up, Allah will reward you

Quote ' think you ONLY have yourselves to blame!

I don't have to go very far. In Nairaland! For bigfoot's sake, Nigerians ar ebusy painting Nigeria black! There is a thread in which most Nigerians are busy selling Nigerians to be fraudulent. Why do that Are you trying to tell me that Nigeria is the ONLY country which is saturated with fraudsters. No! We (South Africans) also have fraudster big time. But, you wont hear us going around publicising it. The crime im my country is unthinkable however, we still manage to sell our country. Juvinile delinquency is rife in London but not ONCE, did I hear an Englishman singing it out loud!

Follow this link posted by a Nigerian: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-67773.0.html
Why in the Almighty's name would one do that The topic subject is so inviting yet its contents are repelling. You don't think that would envite me to visit Nigeria if I was planning to do you?

I say, charity begins at home and you ALL need to be good Nigerian Embassadors."

@Seun: Question is why has the referenced post not been removed by the administretor. If we are serious about cleaning up our image, let us start by using our hands and not just complaining about it.
@ all posters, we could vote and agree that on this website, unnecessary negative image projection of Nigeria will not be tolerated. this may seem small but IT is an effort.
@iice: If you say what you said, I wonder. Don't you think it will be nice if we start having a good image at least in our own eyes?

Onigba lo pe igba e ni ekufo ti omo araye fi baa ko le. I hope I got that right.

God has a reason for making us Nigerians, we will be asked, seriously think about it.

who knows? maybe I did!
