Congrats to Arsenal. It is a win win situation for me o.

Lol... In 2023, prior to the elections, I told an ardent Obidient that Reno would turn against the opposition and switch to whoever sits on that throne.

I have always maintained that Reno has no iota of dignity and integrity.

Right from his infamous days as Wendell Slimlin.


Jagaban is smart and cunning enough to know how to deal with elements like Reno and Bwala.

You don't really understand how the fiat system works . You look at the numerical realities but not the economic realities. Going by your example,then the yen is weaker than the cedi but the reality is that the Japanese economy is so strong that they battle deflation..
The governor of the Zimbabwe Central Bank would give balls just to get the zig on a par with the naira..
The naira is weaker than it should be because Nigerians are economic illiterates, corrupt, selfish,weak and without control.

Malamkwabo:
The story of Umm Qirfa is often cited in polemical attacks against Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), but its authenticity and context are highly disputed among Islamic scholars and historians. Below is a detailed analysis of the historical accounts and their reliability:
1. The Alleged Incident

Reported in: Weak and contested narrations, primarily from Kitab al-Tabaqat al-Kubra by Ibn Sa'd and Futuh al-Buldan by al-Baladhuri (neither are primary hadith sources).

Claim: During the expedition of Zayd ibn Haritha (7 AH / 628 CE) against the Banu Fazara tribe (who had betrayed a peace treaty), an elderly woman named Umm Qirfa was allegedly killed in a brutal manner.

2. Problems with the Narration
A) Weak & Contradictory Chains of Transmission

The story is not found in authentic hadith collections (Sahih Bukhari, Muslim, etc.).

Ibn Sa'd and al-Baladhuri relied on single narrators with weak or unknown reliability (majhul).

Contradicts Quranic and Prophetic teachings on wartime ethics (e.g., prohibition of killing women, children, and the elderly).

B) Historical Inconsistencies

No early sources: The earliest biographies (Ibn Ishaq, Ibn Hisham) do not mention Umm Qirfa.

Exaggerated details: Some versions claim she was tied between two camels and torn apart—a method never sanctioned in Islam and contrary to the Prophet’s strict rules of war.

C) Violates Islamic Rules of War

The Prophet forbade killing non-combatants, as per multiple authentic hadiths:

"Do not kill women, children, the elderly, or those in places of worship." (Sunan Abu Dawud)

"Do not betray, do not mutilate, do not kill a child or an elderly person." (Musnad Ahmad)

If Umm Qirfa was indeed killed, it would have been against the Prophet’s direct orders, making it an individual act—not a sanctioned Islamic ruling.

3. Scholarly Rebuttals

Ibn Kathir (famous historian) omitted the story in his works, suggesting doubt over its authenticity.

Modern scholars (e.g., Dr. Ali Muhammad al-Sallabi) argue the narration is fabricated or distorted, as it contradicts:

The Quran’s prohibition of aggression (2:190).

The Prophet’s mercy even to enemies (e.g., pardoning Hind, who chewed his uncle’s liver at Uhud).

4. Alternative Historical Context

The Banu Fazara had violated treaties and supported attacks on Muslims.

The expedition was against combatants, not civilians. If Umm Qirfa was involved in warfare (e.g., inciting violence), she would not qualify as a protected non-combatant.

Even if the incident occurred, it was not by the Prophet’s command but possibly an independent action by a soldier—which Islam condemns.

5. Conclusion

The story is not reliably documented in authentic Islamic texts.

It contradicts the Prophet’s established mercy and Islamic laws of war.

If true, it would be an unauthorized act—not a reflection of Islam’s teachings.

Final Note:
Critics often cherry-pick unverified stories while ignoring the Prophet’s countless acts of compassion (e.g., freeing prisoners, feeding enemies, and forgiving assassins). His life was defined by restraint, not brutality.

Lukgaf:
I came across a video yesterday where a parent returned home only to find that their little children had completely littered the room—ink spilled everywhere, clothes scattered, and what looked like oil staining the floor and bed. You could almost feel the frustration of the parent through the screen.

And I paused. I imagined myself in that situation.
What would I have done? Yelled? Punished? Lost control?

Then I remembered a beautiful and powerful Hadith of the Prophet ﷺ.

No doubt, one of the most striking features of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was his exceptional character marked by mercy, patience, gentleness and kindness.

Whether he was with family, companions, or those who served him, he radiated compassion and understanding. He was not just a messenger but a mentor, a leader, and a friend who brought out the best in people, not through fear, but through love.

Anas ibn Malik (RA), who served the Prophet ﷺ for ten years, gave a powerful testimony about one of such characters:

"I served the Messenger of Allah for ten years, and not once did he say to me ‘Uff’ (a word of annoyance), nor did he ever say about something I had done, ‘Why did you do that?’ or about something I had not done, ‘Why didn’t you do that?’"
(Sahih Muslim 2309)

This Hadith isn’t just a memory, it is a masterclass in character. It offers two perspectives:

1. For leaders and those in authority: how to treat people with dignity and patience.

2. For subordinates and those under guidance: how to respond with respect, obedience, and good behavior.

How many parents shout at their children for spilling water? How many bosses humiliate workers for a delay? How many teachers scold students without listening? Yet the greatest man ﷺ to walk this earth never even said "Uff" to his servant over ten years! SubhanAllah!

If you’re in a position of leadership, be it as a parent, manager, teacher, or elder take this to heart. Show patience. Correct with wisdom. Your kindness might turn a careless child into a responsible adult or a struggling employee into a loyal star. Lead like the Prophet ﷺ with love, not pressure.

At the same time, Anas (RA) must have been an exceptional young man: obedient, respectful, and trustworthy. That might be in addition (apart from the Prophet natural kindness) the reason Prophet ﷺ treated him with such gentleness.

Are you someone who listens and learns? Do you carry out tasks with sincerity? As a student, child, or junior colleague, your attitude determines your treatment.

Make it easy for your leader to be kind to you. Just like Anas earned the Prophet’s trust, you too can earn trust through humility and effort.

This Hadith is more than a story—it’s a call for change.

May Allah make us patient like the Prophet ﷺ and sincere like Anas (RA). Ameen.

Two men, Ridwan Bello and Fatai Adeleke, have been arraigned before an Iyaganku, Ibadan Chief Magistrates’ Court over alleged unlawful possession of a human head and other body parts of a female corpse.

Bello, 42, of Odo-Aba Street, and Adeleke, 70, whose address remains unknown, face four charges: conspiracy, possession of a human head, interference with the dead, and breach of public peace.

According to the Prosecutor, ASP Foluke Adedosu, the suspects, along with others still at large, conspired to commit the crimes.

On March 18, at about 3am in the Muslim Area of Ibadan, Bello was allegedly found in possession of a human head and dismembered body parts identified as those of the late Mrs. Adebimpe Akinbo.

“A female human head, severed limbs, dried bones, and other remains stored in bags and a paint bucket were recovered from Bello’s house,” Adedosu told the court.

Investigations revealed that Bello had allegedly exhumed Akinbo’s remains from Saint Andrews Anglican Church Cemetery in Awa-Ijebu, Ogun State, for ritual purposes.

Adeleke is accused of knowingly purchasing the human parts from Bello for similar purposes.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the prosecutor added that their actions disrupted public peace and violated Sections 242 (1)(b), 249 (d), 329A, and 516 of the Oyo State Criminal Code Laws, 2000.

Both defendants pleaded not guilty. Magistrate A.T. Oyediji granted them bail at N500,000 each, with two sureties in like sum.

However, the case was adjourned until May 8 for further hearing.

The U.S. government banned employees and personnel in China from having romantic or sexual relationships with Chinese citizens.

According to the Associated Press, four sources said that former U.S. Ambassador Nicholas Burns put the policy into place before leaving his post.

A watered-down version of the new policy was tested in summer 2024, which banned U.S. government employees in China from having "romantic and sexual relations" with Chinese citizens who were employed as support staff and guards at five consulates in China as well as the U.S. embassy.

Burns expanded that policy to cover all Chinese citizens just days before President Trump took office.

The policy was announced to American government staff located in China in January, but hasn't been announced publicly.

Two people with knowledge of the new policy told the Associated Press that it was implemented after several members of Congress reached out to Burns and voiced worries that there wasn't a policy in place that restricted such relationships with Chinese citizens.

Individuals who violate the policy will be forced to leave China.

The policy doesn't apply to U.S. employees located outside of China.

The Chinese government employs a similar policy for overseas personnel, barring them from having sexual or romantic relationships with foreign citizens.

Thessysol:
Why are they still deporting him after finding him not guilty?

After spending eight years in jail, a Nigerian televangelist accused of raping young women from his South African church has been found not guilty of all charges.

Timothy Omotoso had denied the 32 charges in a trial that was broadcast live and gained huge interest across the country.

In 2018, one witness told the court she had been raped by the pastor - who ran a church in the city of Port Elizabeth - when she was 14 years old.

When delivering the verdict on Wednesday, the judge presiding over the trial said that Mr Omotoso had been found not guilty because prosecutors had mishandled the case.

South Africa's National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) shared a similar assessment, saying that "former prosecutors in the case acted improperly and the accused were not sufficiently cross-examined by the state".

The NPA said it would now "consider its legal options" and that the drawn-out nature of the trial was partly down to Mr Omotoso filing numerous legal challenges.

For his part, Mr Omotoso told the media he thanked God for the verdict.

Hi co-accused, Lusanda Sulani and Zikiswa Sitho, were also found not guilty.

Mr Omotoso was dramatically arrested at an airport in 2017 as he sought to leave the country.

His trial was the first prominent rape case to be broadcast live in a country where sexual violence is rampant.

The hearings attracted huge interest, and raised difficult questions about victims' rights, impartiality and whether justice is best served by having television cameras in courtrooms.

Following Wednesday's verdict, Mr Omotoso will be deported to Nigeria, South African media outlet News24 reported.

Aman from northern Nigeria has issued a 48-hour ultimatum to President Bola Tinubu and Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, demanding swift action to identify and apprehend those responsible for the killing of 16 Northerners in Uromi, Edo State.

In a video seen by SaharaReporters on Tuesday, he threatened that failure to do so would lead to retaliatory attacks against Southerners residing in the North.

In the three-minute, 30-second video obtained by SaharaReporters, the unidentified man expressed his concerns over the killings, stating that Northerners would not remain patient in the face of such attacks.

He implied that any reprisals in the North should be blamed on Southerners.

While condemning those who seek justice for Deborah Samuel, a student who was burned alive in Sokoto State over alleged blasphemy, he defended her killing by claiming she had insulted the Prophet Muhammad.

He questioned why Christians in the South would criticise the incident, arguing that Northerners had never insulted Jesus Christ.

He further stated that in Islam, a Muslim who insults Jesus ceases to be a Muslim, as Prophet Isa (Jesus) is recognised as a messenger of Allah.

The man explained the religious differences between Muslims and Christians, stating that while Christians regard Jesus as God, Muslims recognise him solely as a prophet and messenger of Allah.

He warned that if no action is taken against those responsible for the killings in Edo, any retaliatory violence against Southerners in the North should be blamed on Southern leaders, including Tinubu and Okpebholo.

Addressing President Tinubu and Governor Okpebholo directly, he reminded them that there are many Southerners residing in Northern states such as Borno, Kano, Jos, Kaduna, and Adamawa.

He threatened that any consequences arising from the Uromi killings would be attributed to them, irrespective of whether the Southerners affected are from Edo or elsewhere.

According to him, "Good morning, my fellow Nigerians. So I have seen a lot of people complaining that justice for Deborah, justice for Deborah. So if you haven't forgotten the southerners, Deborah was not killed just for no reason. Deborah was killed because she abused the Holy Prophets, our prophets. Our beloved Prophet. Prophet Muhammad S.A.W.
"Have you ever seen any Northerners abusing Jesus, no. There is no any Northerners that have abuses Jesus, no, it has never happened. But those stupid Christians among you, the stupid among you, the dumpest among you abused the Holy Prophet and you think that we will keep quiet and see.
"That is the law anybody that abuse our Prophet, he or she will be killed. We have never abuse Jesus and we will never because. Let me tell you something that you don't know, in Islam, that is our religion. If you abuse Jesus, you are no more a Muslim. That is Prophet Isa peace be upon him. As we know him bit Jesus but his name is Prophet Isa."
He said, "Number one, the only difference between we and you people are, we only believe that Jesus is a Prophet is a messenger from Allah, that is God, the Creator of all creators. You consider human being as a God, imagine he's a Prophet and a messenger don't forget that.
"Let me tell you something, if this actions are not taken against this 16 Northerners that are killed in Edo, anything that follows to your people here in the North, you are the people that cause it.
"Mr president, president Bola Tinubu this is message direct to you and his excellency the governor of Edo State, Mr Monday, this is also a message directly to you. You know you have many of your people in the North more especially Borno state, Kano State, Jos, Kaduna and Adamawa.
"There are many Christians there, we wont consider whether you are from Edo, whether if you are from Cotedevoir, definitely if you are a southerners. The thing that will follow are caused by you people, that is you and president Tinubu.
"Mr Monday, actions most be taken within 48-hours, because we will do this thing when it is very harsh because we won't allow our heart to have patience. Let it be the last warning.
"48-hours is enough, time is not against, time is against us. Mr president you only have few minutes not even hours, meaning fetch out those people, because if actions are not taken, you have your people here, then we'll do same to them. Thank you," he said.

SaharaReporters had on Monday reported tha 14 suspects arrested over the brutal killing of hunters from Kano State in Uromi, Esan North East Local Government Area of Edo State, had been transferred to Abuja for further interrogation, as the state governor, Monday Okpebholo, confirmed.

The northerners were on their way to Kano for Sallah celebrations when they were attacked by a mob, their vehicle ransacked, and murdered last Thursday.

The incident had sparked nationwide outrage, with calls for swift justice.

Governor Okpebholo had assured that the perpetrators would face the full weight of the law, describing the attack as unacceptable.

An Iranian activist has been sentenced to 178 lashes and 18 months in prison after being arrested for not wearing a hijab.

Hamideh Zarei, a Gilak activist and former political prisoner, was released earlier this month from Rasht Central Prison after spending nearly a month behind bars - only to now face a brutal new sentence.

Her latest sentence includes nine months of imprisonment and 74 lashes for 'disrupting public order,' nine months for 'resisting law enforcement officers,' 74 lashes for 'insulting an officer on duty,' and 30 lashes for 'causing non-visible injuries.'

The Tehran University masters student's ordeal began on February 3, when she appeared at the Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor's Office in Rasht as part of a forced residency sentence.

She was detained for not wearing the mandatory hijab, which led to her receiving new charges.

Zarei spent 29 days in detention at Rasht Central Prison before being released on bail on March 3, according to a report from the Hengaw Organisation for Human Rights.

During her time in custody, the activist was reportedly physically assaulted by two officers from the Rasht Prosecutor's Office Protection Unit, which resulted in wrist injuries and severe bruising.

But this is just the latest chapter in the regime's relentless targeting of Zarei.

In June last year, she was arrested after being summoned to Rasht Court and sent to Lakan Prison, only to be released on June 10 after securing a judicial bond.

But her troubles with Iranian authorities date back to 2022.

In November 2023, the Karaj Revolutionary Court, under Judge Mousa Asafolhosseini, sentenced her to one year in prison for 'propaganda against the Islamic Republic of Iran.'

After accepting the verdict, the sentence was reduced to nine months.

Zarei was first detained in Karaj on May 29, 2023, and imprisoned in Kachouii Prison until her release on February 22, 2024, after serving her sentence.

However, she was also banned from traveling for two years, prohibited from social media activity for two years, and forced into exile in Rasht.

Her first known arrest took place on November 3, 2022, when she was detained for attending a memorial marking the 40th day since the killing of Hadis Najafi - a young woman shot dead by security forces during the 2022 protests.

She was imprisoned in Kachouii Prison before being released on February 7, 2024, under a so-called 'pardon' directive.

Hamideh Zarei's case is yet another chilling example of Iran's brutal suppression of women's rights activists.

With her new harsh prison sentence and the barbaric punishment of 178 lashes, the Iranian regime continues its merciless crackdown on those who dare to defy its oppressive laws.

It comes after an Iranian student was arrested and taken to a mental hospital by morality police after she stripped down to her underwear and walked around Tehran's Islamic Azad University in November last year.

Footage of the brave moment saw the student sitting and pacing back and forth with her arms crossed in front of stunned onlookers at the university's science and research campus before she was detained by security forces and forcibly put in a car.

Following her arrest, there were widespread calls from human rights activists on social media for her immediate release after she reportedly sustained severe injuries during her violent arrest.

A growing number of women have defied authorities by discarding their veils after nationwide protests that followed the death in September 2022 of a young Iranian Kurdish woman in the custody of the morality police for allegedly violating hijab rules.

Mahsa Amini, 22, died after being arrested by morality police for not wearing her hijab correctly.

Her death spearheaded mass 'Women, life, freedom' protests which continued for months in the country.

A year later, in October 2023, an Iranian teenager named Armita Geravand was injured in an alleged encounter with police on Tehran's metro while not wearing a head covering. She later died in hospital.
