For those who don't know these people neautralised are Fulani herdsmen who go about Zamafara attacking Hausa Christian minorities there but the govt and the press won't tell you this

You're there in a Safe Zone posting all this nonsense to instigate Violence and Hatred among Nigerians, I don't know on whose mission you're but your utterances are a Blatant Expression of Falsehood of the highest kind. I'm presently in Zamfara and this Bandits Respect no Religious or Ethnic boundaries. They attack even Fulanis that are Rich whether Muslims or Not, The Only Languages they understand are MONEY and BLOOD.

Cases like this is a matter of qiyas depending on region we find ourselves. Qiyas doesn't have to be universal at all.

If you live in Western world and you work for non-Muslims especially white people, during their holidays: Thanksgiving, Xmas, Gregorian new year, your boss will give you double pay or bonus in form of cash and kind as holiday gifts. I am talking about anywhere from $250-$500 depending on your relationship with them.

It is a matter of exposure. They do this even if they know you are Muslim. You can't say that you can not accept non-Muslim food or you can not eat non Muslim food but you can accept non-Muslim money given to you in cash. It is the same. To reject one and accept the other is double standards. Islam encourages flexibility in areas like this by using your God given wisdom.

They will definitely offer you food. They give you whole turkey for Thanksgiving along with cash. Rich white people usually do this for their employees.

Now, a non Muslim who do this and also give you food most likely doesn't know what you believe in terms of diet. I have always stand my ground that you should kindly accept their food. It doesn't mean you have to eat it. You can always give the food to the poor. That's a form of charity from you as a Muslim. I am talking from experience. There is no need to debate them about "I can't eat food prepared for their religious celebration" etc. This is a waste of time.

Take the food if you can and thank them. They not gonna follow you to your house to make sure you eat from it. You do what you have to do with the food. If you can reject their food why not reject their money?.

I worked as a nurse taking care of a white man for 5yrs straight. Every yr, during Thanksgiving and Christmas, his daughter gave me whole turkey and $300 cash. Also brought me cooked food they prepared for their Thanksgiving. She did the same for Xmas every yr until her father passed away 5yrs ago.

What did I do with the turkey?. First, turkey is halal provided it is slaughtered according to sharia. But we know the turkeys sold at the supermarkets are not halal. I always accepted her turkey every yr and took them home and gave them to my CHRISTIAN neighbor but I kept the money

So Islam doesn't frown upon this since there is no clear daleel that forbids us from taking gifts from them. Now, I am aware of Ibn Qayyum's statements on this issue. That unfortunately was his sincere opinion but it is not binding. He gave his fatwa to saveguard religion. There is nothing bad in that. However, acceptable opinion is that if you live next to non muslim neighbor and they have been nice to you, they greet you on your eld etc, there is absolutely no reason to reject their food. Accepting their food is not tantamount to agreeing with their religion or religious festivals.

Accept the food to save face and give the food to charity. This is what I do. But those muslims who have not been exposed to multicultures and multiracial environment or diversity, they are gonna have problems with my approach.

It is a matter of hikma when dealing with non-Muslims. Always remember that they greet us on our Elds. There is nothing wrong with greeting them or returning greetings in their festivals, but I don't encourage muslims to initiate the greeting. What Islam concerns about is DO NOT JOIN THEM IN WORSHIP. This is transgression. As for giving them charitable gifts like this one posted by op, I call it "strategy". Islam encourages whatever you can do to peacefully coerce them to come to Islam. They have successfully used this approach in the UK which resulted to having many Churches converted to masajid. This same happens in USA. It is a strategic matter. But I prefer that a Muslim should greet them with generic term like "happy holidays" rather than merry Xmas.

I also condemn extremists who in the name of "peaceful coexistence" attend their Church services on Xmas. These types of muslims have crossed the line.


I also worked for a Pakistani muslim Man 15yrs ago. He had CHRISTIAN employees amongst us. I can still remember them. Tiffany and Danny. On Eld fitr and Eld adha, my boss would give them cash bonus for our muslim holidays. So this is a matter of qiyas, and no position is binding. All in all, muslims must not compromise his religion for worldly gain.

You have educated me a lot brother.

AlexReports:
Some weeks back, The Murtala Muhammed Airport 2 (MMA2) was shut down by the aviation unions over their dispute with the operators of the terminal. Airlines, Banks, shop owners and services providers at the terminal said they lost over 1.5 billion for what they described as ‘insensitive picketing’ of the terminal

Unfortunately, our dear Unions do not understand the difference between picketing and shutting down. While you have a right to picket, you do not have the right to shutdown the operations of key player such as MMA2. This is a terminal that plays an important role in the economy of our nation and these unions still decided to shut it down irrespective of a subsisting court injunction. How lawless can we be as a nation? In a lawful country those union leaders should be in jail by now.

In other climes, you would expect the main regulator of the sector which is the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority NCAA to have intervened before the matter got to the extent of picketing but not in Nigeria. It still baffles me how the NCAA and FAAN looked the other way, while their staffs who are known members of these unions shutdown a critical service industry? The NCAA watches everything in limbo and acts like it doesn’t exist. When the chief regulator looks the other way when it should stamp its authority, then we are in for more shockers!

Now this is the main problem with concessions in Nigeria. If a major investor in the mold and pedigree of Dr Wale Babalakin can be subjected to such humiliation, how do we expect to get more local investors, let alone foreign investors? We are yet to recover from a failed Nigeria Air project which we all know never got a single investor and the NCAA and FAAN are still adopting a ‘siddon look’ style?

From the look of the whole MMA2 and Union brouhaha, it is obvious the NCAA, FAAN and the Police were all in support of the impunity exhibited by the unions. How else can one describe the inability of the police to disperse an unlawful gathering / trespass at MMA2 even with a court injunction? And they were all happy seeing outlets at the terminal shut, passengers missing important business or professional engagements, banks shut and airlines losing millions and threatening to downsize? Are we not tired of the level of job losses under the present administration? It was such a dark day for Nigeria, concessions and the rule of law!

Recently, an aircraft belonging to overland caught fire while undergoing maintenance at its hanger at the General Aviation Terminal (GAT). The video of how the aircraft burnt beyond repair went viral and it exposed the inefficiency of FAAN and NCAA. It was a shameful sight to behold. I felt like crying for Nigeria and the aviation industry while watching the video and I asked: what if there were passengers onboard, we would have lost precious lives as a result of the ineptitude of these agencies. Voices in the background of the video confirmed that, apart from the fact that the fire fighters got to the hanger late, they ran out of water. Shame! And this is supposed to be a Category 1 Airport recently certified by NCAA!

I am inclined to request what emergency management program the NCAA put in place to manage such emergency situations? When was the last audit inspect carried out on the hanger? Was this part of the audit carried out by NCAA? How did the hanger get an AMO certificate? FAAN is complicit in all of these as performance of the airport fire service fell short of a CAT 1 standard.

Our CAT 1 regulators NCAA and FAAN need to tell us when last they trained and bought equipment for their emergency services officers and staff? Who knows, they may have embezzled the monies set aside for these programs and were caught unaware with the recent fire incident. A supposed Category 1 airport as large as what we have should have a minimum of 4 fire service teams; 1 each at mma2, GAT, MMIA and Cargo to meet the ICAO 3 minutes recommended standards to put out a fire incident.

A member of the Aviation Round Table, John Ojukutu, while querying the last time the NCAA conducted an inspection or audit on the maintenance hanger also asked, ‘’what is the category of the MMA fire service that could not put the fire out on a passenger aircraft of less than 40 seater? What would have happened if it were a B777 or even a B737? I heard people in the background of the video screaming no water! no water! But where were the water hydrants in the NCAA certified airport? Does the hanger where the incident happened not have emergency management program for such incident? Is the emergency management program for the hanger not an NCAA’s audit or inspection checklist? if the answers to these questions are negative, then it’s a big shame for a regulatory agency that prides itself with the FAA CAT 1.’’ He advised the NCAA to review its checklist for hanger inspection and audit

Unfortunately, both the Minister of State for Aviation Hadi Sirika and the NCAA DG Muhtar Usman have refused to issue a statement on both the MMA2 and overland aircraft fire incidents. I gathered from reliable sources that both were outside the country lounging somewhere in Canada while the country or their sector rather was on fire. These are the kind of people we have at the helm of affairs of a critical sector such as aviation and nobody seems to be auditing their affairs.

With the level of mismanagement, ineptitude and inefficiency that these agencies and even the Ministry have exhibited in recent past, also with the handling of the failed Nigeria project; I will strongly recommend a total review of their operation and activities. At the moment, I can tell you for free that nobody checks or audits these agencies and you cannot be the judge in your own case as there is tendency to compromise. We deserve better as a nation and it starts with total restructuring of not just our country but the aviation industry.

For us to have a robust industry, distant from what we are presently experiencing; there is need to move agencies like the NCAA, AIB, NIMET,NAMA, and FAAN from the oversight of the ministry of Aviation to the presidency for direct monitoring and to avoid the overt interference of the ministry in these agencies . The case of the overbearing influence of the former Minister of Aviation, Ms Stella Oduah, on these agencies is very fresh. We all remember how she used her office to extort money from the agencies and this is one out of the many reasons for recommendation.

The Accident Investigation Bureau should be a unit under the NCAA and moved under the purview of the presidency. There must be standards and NO compromise; and considering their job as auditors, they shouldn’t be answerable to the ministry to avoid the aforementioned and build a vibrant industry where safety and professionalism is guaranteed.

While many including my humble self have condemned the handling of the failed Nigeria Air project by the junior minister of transportation, Hadi Sirika, I commend the minister for at least accepting that the agencies cannot effectively manage the airport infrastructure and reaffirming the commitment of the President Muhammed Buhari led administration to concession the airports.

Aviation experts have also said that MMA2 has shown that concession is the solution to improving our airport infrastructure, as the terminal provides the best passenger facilitation at the moment and can also be co-opted to manage the other airports around the country.

This unlawful, despicable and unfortunate incident will only strengthen Dr Wale Babalakin resolve to continue to make a case for concessions in Nigeria and provide the best of facilities for the travelling public as exemplified by the wide gulf in facilities and services between MMA2 and the other government run Airports
