I hope the mods will do justice to this thread because people hardly know about the North especially the north-east.

Borno have been under boko-haram insurgency for more than a decade , but people living outside that region never know about the beauty of this wonderful city. BOKOHARAM MIGHT HAVE WAGE A WAR, BUT THEY CANT DESTROY THIS MAGNIFICENT CITY THAT STOOD THE TEST OF TIME.
NAIRALANDERS HERE IS MAIDUGURI.......

mariahAngel:
I see you making Nigerian fried rice.
I see you killing, seasoning and cooking the chicken, then boiling some rice with the chicken stock, spices and some seasoning.
I see you chopping up and stir frying some onions, the carrots, green peppers etcetera (you're going to buy).
I see you stirring in the stir fried vegetables into the cooked rice to make it delicious.

These I've seen.

I see me drooling over it

Maryam1234:
You can use Alom as well.Any alkaline substance can coagulate Tofu e.g, Tamarind,Lime orange,the akamu water Bintdawood suggested.It seems you're desperate to make it work,I can be of help if you won't mind.Its something a first timer can not do without guide because, even the handling while in the pillow at the final stage needs mentorship hence,you shake it off and waste the efforts.

Exactly

favelli:
Wow, nice

See me oooo the more you reply the more questions I seems to have. You wara looks like you already added fresh pepper and other spices even before frying. And also it's looking well integrated. How did you manage to achieve such please? No vex, I love tofu alot

Yes, i blend fresh pepper and onions together buh not too smooth. I add it when the milk has coated and ready to filter it, immediately i pour it inside my sieve, i will then bring the blended vegies and pour on top, turn it as fast as i could so it touches everywhere. Then i will tie my sieve for the water to drain.
Shikenan. I hope this helps

favelli:
Really nice, please can you give me a small guide on how you make your own tofu from scratch? Have only been successful once. I tried using lime orange for the separation of the curb on the second try as lemon wasn't available but It failed. And also, is there a particular type of soya beans that should be used? Because last time I used 10cups of bean, but the quantity of tofu I got was really small. Felt like I wasted the beans should have rather opted for soya milk. Thanks, as I await your reply ���

And also please you can tell me other forms of coagulant that I can use instead of lemon

Here is the picture

favelli:
Thanks very much for your reply. So can I also buy akamu from the market, soak it in water over night then use the water for the process? And also would vinegar work as a coagulant too? Sorry for stressing you with so much questions

You welcome.
Of course yes, overnight is okay.
I dont think vinegar go fit work o but tbh i have never tried using vinegar for that b4.
Am good, dont worry.
I've been trying to attach a picture of it buh it wont upload

Correction please and don't be offended.
Highlight (Vii) . Pls it's not permissible to perform rituals bath (janabah) in a stagnant water. River or any flowing water is permissible but not stagnant water.

For the swimming pool right? Thank you

For me, after washing the soya bean, we then soak it for like 1hr before grinding, filter it and put on fire to boil, you know the water that sits on top of filtered akamu right? Thats the water we pour into the boiling soya milk, it will begin to coat.
Dont forget to put enough water into the soya bean paste before filtering o.

Am sorry for that, you know lime makes the tofu to crumble and . Lemon is better.
I use lemon and even tamarind too. Just that tamarind changes the color to a bit dark.

Am also a fan of plantain
We can't wait o

Janābah bath is an OBLIGATORY ritual bath required of a Muslim, male or female, who:

a. Engages in sexual intercourse by mere penetration;

b. Ejaculates sperm in the course of arousal or masturbation;

c. Notices traces of sperm on his/her pp upon waking up from sleep.

It is called Janābah جنابة from the verb أجنب because its occurrence necessitates 'staying away' from certain rituals (Salāt, entering the Masjid, reciting the Qur'ān), until one has taken the bath.

Steps for taking the Janābah bath:

1. Wash your � twice/thrice (especially if you're going to dip your ✋ inside a container of water or you've just woken up from sleep. The Prophet ﷺ recommended that, "whenever anyone of you wakes up from sleep, let him wash his hands thrice before dipping them into the water container..." Do the washing before dipping it into the water. This may not be necessary if you're using a kettle, tap, or shower.

2. Wash your entire private parts thoroughly with your left ✋. This includes the frontal and backsides of the pp. Extend the washing to the navel and thighs, as the fluid may likely get to those areas, too.

3. Wash your left ✋ again, this time by rubbing it on sand, wall, tiles, or by using soap (any kind of soap). In case one cannot find soap, he/she may use water. The essence is to make the ✋ clean once again, after removing the impurities from the pp.

4. Perform complete ablution as you would for Salāt. There's no specification of number of times one can wash/wipe the limbs. It could be one time all through; two times; or three times. In fact, one may wash some limbs once, some twice, and some thrice. All are allowed.

5. Wet your fingers with water, and run them through your hair (especially for those that are hairy). Women in particular should take note of this. Janābah bath does NOT warrant loosening the plaited/braided hair. Run your wet hands through your hair.

6. Take water with both hands and pour it on your head. Do this thrice.

6. Pour water on your entire body from head to toe. You MAY rub your ✋ over your body to ensure that water reaches every part. For those bathing under tap or shower, let the water touch every part of your body, head to toe.

Note

i. You may take the bath as described above while omitting the ablution part entirely.

ii. Such bath (with or without the ablution) is valid for Salāt.

iii. As regards the ablution, any of the following is allowed:

a. Perform a complete ablution washing the feet;
b. Delay washing the feet till after completion of bath;
c. Wash the feet a second time after performing (a) above if you notice any dirt's on your legs;

iv. Unintentional touching of the private part does not invalidate the ablution according to my preferred view.

v. If ablution becomes void before completion of the bath, it doesn't affect the bath. One may only repeat the ablution upon completion of bath at one's own discretion.

vi. Women are not required to undo their braids for this purpose. All they need to do is to ensure that water gets to their hair scalp.

vii. For anyone bathing under tap or shower or in a swimming pool, these basic steps should also be followed.

Combining the Janābah and Regular Baths

It is permitted to take the Janābah bath with soap (and sponge). This can be done through either of the following two ways:

a. The bathwater can be mixed with soap (liquid or powdered) and then used to take the Janābah bath. (This is debatable. The majority of the scholars oppose its use while Abū Hanīfah, Imām Ahmad in one of the views attributed to him and which is the stand of Ibn Taimiyah permit it.). The view of permissibility is stronger in proof but the view of impermissibility is safer. (وقول الجمهور أحوط، وإن كان القول بجواز التطهر به أقوى في الدليل

b. One can rub soap on his/her body and then take the Janābah bath while washing the soap off his/her body. (This is permitted by all).

On the other hand, one may choose to take the Janābah bath first before resorting to using soap to take his usual bath, or take his bath first with soap, then take the Janābah after. (This is the closest view to avoiding the controversies).

Allāh knows best

North don't have plantain
They import all family of banana from Ondo, Osun, Oyo and Benue same as Yam (doya) and Oranges (lemu)

That is why that even cost

Ehn but now there are plantain and banana farmers in Karaye local government here in Kano state
