maclatunji: Intellectually weak people insult others when they have nothing convincing to present. It does not take much to crush the concept of Atheism.

maclatunji: Seriously, I do not think there is anybody that is an Atheist. I believe we only have people that have managed to deceive themselves that they are Atheists.

Enigma: My mumu dunce of a crybaby is scared?

No wonder: none of them could handle my simple test in their enclave.


Which Roman Catholic "pope" was never even ordained a priest before he was made "pope"?

vedaxcool: here is the same individual thanking a moderator for moderating his thread



https://www.nairaland.com/505782/questions-comments-complaints-talk-moderators/58#13821551

yet when his excesses are moderated it is a bad thing and a sign of intolerance, truly people need to learn how to be consistent in their demands on others as no reasonable discussion can take place without people being civil in their conduct!

plappville: The bitter truth hurts... I will soon post updates, let him ban me. St lease, multiple IDs is not prohibited. @tintingz keep insulting the bible in the religion section. Who cares? After insult, they still use it to validate their Prophet,,,,,how wise are they! Anyway, Thank yu J

alexis: The intention is not to offend anyone - if they are, no harm was meant - however, no apologies will be given either. If no one can take criticism, then they shouldn't be on a public forum. The popular Islamic scholar Ahmed Deedat called the Bible, a pornographic book - No one issued a fatwa against him or asked that he should be killed. It was his point of view and opinion. We are having a logical discussion on a public forum. I know emotions runs high when it comes to certain topics. I don't see how the Moderator should ban anyone. We should be civil but be truthful all the same.

Chukskalidon: All muslims are the same. And they are all Jihadists.

mr gaga: Mine is laziness...i haven't perform solat 4 d past 4months..

maclatunji: Salam Alaykum, I just wanted to know why some Muslims may not be observing the 5 daily salat completely.

maclatunji: The BBC is an authority on Islam? But let me go with you:

Introduction
Jihad

The literal meaning of Jihad is struggle or effort, and it means much more than holy war.

Muslims use the word Jihad to describe three different kinds of struggle:

A believer's internal struggle to live out the Muslim faith as well as possible
The struggle to build a good Muslim society
Holy war: the struggle to defend Islam, with force if necessary

Many modern writers claim that the main meaning of Jihad is the internal spiritual struggle, and this is accepted by many Muslims.

However there are so many references to Jihad as a military struggle in Islamic writings that it is incorrect to claim that the interpretation of Jihad as holy war is wrong.

Jihad and the Prophet

The internal Jihad is the one that Prophet Muhammad is said to have called the greater Jihad.

But the quotation in which the Prophet says this is regarded as coming from an unreliable source by some scholars. They regard the use of Jihad to mean holy war as the more important.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/islam/beliefs/jihad_1.shtml

It is obvious even from the BBC that any attempt to make military struggle the primary definition of Islam is wrong, they simply tried to twist their definition to give that effect.

donroxy: Am not gonna be offensive to Islam cuz there is nothing Offensive in Islam!!!

maclatunji: @bolded, this must be a new religion you started not Islam.

maclatunji: Muslims don't just define concepts by stringing words together without sources.

Paris_Love: Islam's Latest Contributions to Peace
"Mohammed is God's apostle.  Those who follow him are harsh
 to the unbelievers but merciful to one another"  Quran 48:29


2013.01.19 (Kano, Nigeria) - At least five people are killed in an attempted Boko Haram assassination of a popular emir.

2013.01.18 (Sur Kas, Pakistan) - Laskhar-e-Islam mortar a family home, killing the mother and father and severely injuring their girl.

2013.01.17 (Hilla, Iraq) - al-Qaeda detonate a car bomb outside a soccer stadium in a Shia neighborhood, killing at least seven.

2013.01.17 (Dujail, Iraq) - Eleven Shia pilgrims are sent to Allah by dedicated Sunni car bombers.

2013.01.17 (Garissa, Kenya) - Religious extremists burst into a restaurant and gun down five patrons.

2013.01.17 (Narathiwat, Thailand) - Islamic 'insurgents' murder a school truck driver in front of seven children.

maclatunji: Your sources please.

apocalypse: A holy war waged on behalf of Islam as a religious duty.

A personal struggle in devotion to Islam especially involving spiritual discipline.

A crusade for a principle or belief

BetaThings: What is diversionary about this?
When people gather muslims, train them, equip them to fight not as regular army because of your own political agenda
What happens when you no longer need them
You now call on majority of muslims who never were involved in your game, never had influence on your "guerilla warriors" etc
And ask them to bring the battle-hardened to normal life

Boko Haram might not be easily explained but it have also been said that they are part of struggle for power by the political class
Even then Social issues are not typically explained 100% by major factors
Explaining 85% will normally do
(CF the report on the habits of products of China's one-child policy)

You can see why the FG is rehabilitating ex-militants in the ND - because people who are used to fighting cannot just be turned loose

There will always be conflicts but the upsurge is traceable to recent history
Check the history of terror activities before
1. the creation of the state of Israel
2. Invasion of Afghanistan/deployment of American troops to Saudi Arabia (al Qaeda)
3. Invasion of Iraq

anataala: terrorism is in all religions,both Muslim and christian, u will quite agree with anything that can cause panic, trauma that if your not lucky can lead to dead and loss of properties is terrorism, and you know majority of people that are associated with arm robbery,kidnapping,sale of fake drugs advance free fraud 419 etc, the are from SS with little in SW nd North so what do call them?

Wizeboy: If you must be very sincere to yourself, based on what have been going on, on Nairaland when it comes to religious issue; who should be more tolerance between the christians folks and Muslims. May be you should try to look at Islam for Muslims thread to see many abuses by your Christians folks.

All I can say is that, I really do appreciate the decorum and maturity majority of the Muslims on Nairaland normally put forward when it comes to issue like this. Almighty God will continue to give us the heart to tolerate the more and more.


Salam...

BetaThings: Are the western countries fighting the extremists? or increasing their ranks
When they started recruiting people to go and frustrate the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, did they discuss it with us?
Did the invasion of Iraqi not increase terror attacks and resentments of western countries in Muslim countries
They did not listen to those who said "don't attack Iraq" but they now want muslims to deal with the consequences
If the Lavon affair (google it) incident had not failed, would muslims not have been blamed for it
Inspite of that incident, whenever we raise issues about the truth of such incidents, people dismiss them
Let me ask this question? Who started WWII? (Read Icebreaker by Viktor Suvorov for an opinion on the matter)

You are likely to say I am bringing distractions but some of these matters go beyong fighting terrorism

Zhul-fiqar:
@paris-love
There is no explicit verse in the Quran specifying punishment for rape for two reasons:

1. Any illicit sex in Islam can be punished with up to death.so raping a woman can also take the death penalty as the action falls under illicit sex.

2. Islam does not recognize the mockery of wedlock designated in the west as "marital rape".in Islam,the couple should have sex.it is the man's right to be given sexual pleasure by his wife.otherwise,the man can commit adultery.for the good of the marriage and of society,good wives don't use sex as a weapon against their husbands for every misunderstanding.if the man comes to the level of reaching out to his wife in bed after misunderstanding,that should be seen as reconciliatory gesture,and the couple should make up.if the man is very evil for the woman to justify and use sex as a weapon,then she have no reason to share the same bed with him.she should leave.

fellis: What is important to me is the message that the Religion teaches, not the wrongdoings of whoever brought it to Nigeria; assuming it was actually slave traders.
The castration you wrote of is not even permissible in Islam, mutilating people like that is forbidden and I believe LagosShia has discussed how Islam discourages slave trade to you before. I am not going to be fazed from being a Muslim because of the wrong deeds of slave traders. What matters to me is the contents of the religion, not the sins of its propagators, whoever they were.

fellis: I have heard different accounts of how Islam came to Nigeria, some say through trade, some say through slavery and some say Jihad.
What does it matter how it came to Nigeria? Why is that a big deal?

Slaves were obtained through conquest, tribute from vassal states (in the first such treaty, Nubia was required to provide hundreds of male and female slaves), offspring (children of slaves were also slaves, but since many slaves were castrated this was not as common as it had been in the Roman empire), and purchase. The latter method provided the majority of slaves, and at the borders of the Islamic Empire vast number of new slaves were castrated ready for sale (Islamic law did not allow mutilation of slaves, so it was done before they crossed the border). The majority of these slaves came from Europe and Africa -- there were always enterprising locals ready to kidnap or capture their fellow countrymen.

Black Africans were transported to the Islamic empire across the Sahara to Morocco and Tunisia from West Africa, from Chad to Libya, along the Nile from East Africa, and up the coast of East Africa to the Persian Gulf. This trade had been well entrenched for over 600 years before Europeans arrived, and had driven the rapid expansion of Islam across North Africa

Trans-Saharan trade opens the way

The raids into the central Sahara by `Uqba ibn-Nafi` in 667, told by Ibn-`Abdalhakam, (1) opened the route to Kanem and Borno. In each town he raided `Uqba imposed a tribute of 360 slaves. From that time until the end of the 19th century, the central African trade route specialized in slaves taken from the hinterland of Borno
