Russia has a right to defend itself

I have said it already. Russia is only being soft with Ukraine. In one video, one woman was throwing tantrums against Russian troops while they tried calm her down. In another, a single Ukrainian man stood in front of a Russian convoy consisting of TANKS.

This is something you can't try with USA or IDF without being shot

Brendaniel:
What he should have done since, see don't be deceived, Russia is not fighting a full war with Ukraine, they only want to bully them into submission, I've seen a lot of people here saying Russia is weak and is living on past glory, I just laugh, If you don't know deep details of the history of Russia, please don't just make arguments against them, If you have been following abandoned engineering on Discovery channel you will know what I'm talking about...

Don't mind those fools. I saw a video of a Ukrainian woman insulting Russian troops while they are trying to calm her down.

In another video, a single Ukrainian man stood in the way of a CONVOY OF TANKS and still lived to tell the story.

Just imagine an Arab man trying this with a NATO army or with IDF

Loewe:


So what's the bottom line now? That since the US allegedly invaded some countries, Russia should be allowed to run down Ukraine?

His sentiments reveal the conclusion of his line of thought.

"Allegedly, " he says

The Hague is only meant for the leaders of very poor countries. If that institution truly means what they insist it stands for, Bush and Blair would have been in jail right now.

I had a very funny argument on Facebook with a white woman on this issue. She was hell-bent on telling me how George Bush is not a criminal while Putin is.

On the surface, it looks like USA has free press but they are very effective indoctrinators.

International Courts are meant for poor countries. It is like Hisbah

Ronaldo isn't an idiot, and even if he is. He's got family members to set him right

Prenuptials are often thrown away by courts in Europe if the agreements don't give the wife what the court intends to give. Im not saying this out of misogyny, but Western men have been fully emasculated by feminists. Marriage is a very bad financial move if you live there because you can easily lose half of your life savings and assets. There's a reason the women file 80% of the divorce there

Misterdhee1:

See as you wrote essay just to spew trash. All those worthy innovations you mentioned which ones did your forefathers contributed to making ?

Help me ask the fool. I don't know if some African Christians see muslims in their sleep. Even on Facebook you see them going to BBC pages to make anti-muslim posts even if the topic has nothing to do with religion or terrism.

franchasng:
Muslims, the only thing they contribute to humanity is bloodshed, sorrows, tears, poverty, confusion, and terror.



A single bolt in that motorcycle they are riding proudly on they cannot produce yet they feel so full of themselves using technologies whites and Asians created to improve human life to rather destroy their own fellow blacks.



Why cant they commit all these time, devotion and passion to developing their own indigenous technologies and help make humanity better?



Before you quote me, ask yourself why majority of the countries and regions currently at war or being terrorized are Muslim countries?


Dont come here to remind me about UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc.

I will not mention all the wars and chaos instigated by the West or the war about to go down in Ukraine.

Kindly mention a single bolt in that motorcycle that was built by an African christian.

While pointing your fingers at Muslims (who did a lot of scientific breakthroughs in the past by the way. Aljebra is a good example.), can you also mention what YOU AS AN AFRICAN have invented to the world? Don't even discriminate between muslims and Christians. Mention any technological breakthrough that has been achieved by an African muslim or Christian.

Also, what if I told you that all the casualties of muslim terrorist groups combined have not reached half of those killed in Vietnam by your white masters?

Thank you.

Ahmback:
Dumbo, that's because Russia sells its weapons to anybody and everybody, terrorist or gang members. As long as you are with the money. Now U.S of A regulates their weapons sale thats why you'd hardly see theirs in the hands of terrorists. Russia are indirectly sponsoring terrorism.

That doesn't make their rifles better though. Even without the regulation, most countries prefer AKs

Agreed

FOOLS

Hassanmaye:

Yes I agree with you but just like the Qur'an have abrogating and abrogated verses the Hadith also have.
For example.
O prophet urge the believers to battle. If there are among you twenty who are steadfast they will overcome two hundred.. and if there are among you one hundred who are steadfast they will overcome a thousand who have disbelieve. Qur'an 8:65.
But this verse was later abrogated by Qur'an 8: 66
Now Allah has lighten the hardship for you and he knows that among you is weakness.
So if there are from you one hundred who are steadfast they will overcome two hundred..

Yes, the Hadiths teaches us many things and a lot of them are truly authentic. I still apply many Hadiths in my way of life but it's just a few that I am not convinced with.

Biodun556:


The Hadith collectors have made their own research and contributions. Muslim schorlars of today should continue to make it better. However , some schorlars are bent on replacing hadith with their own opinions in order to propagate their own ideology and create divisions among muslims, one must be careful of this. Many Quran verses point to the relevance of hadith which makes it inevitable while interpreting Qur'an. I am of the opinion that not all the hadiths that were rejected are fakes, muslim recognised body and reputable schorlars who are sincere should continue to work on them.

This is the point I'm trying to make. More needs to be worked on.

Itzlinda:
Only Quran is infallible. I wish you understand Hausa so I could attach a ruling of late gummi where he said not all Hadith in sahihul bukhari are authentic.

The summary of what he says is that Allah only promise to protect Quran from contamination so numerous Hadith books can be contaminated.

He gave an example of the Hadith that says some unbelievers used charm on prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) which caused him sickness.

The sheikh says it is even a grave sin to believe charm could work on the noble prophet. And this Hadith is found right there in Imamul bukhari.
Allahu a’alam

Please do share. I'm a native Hausa man.

There are so many examples. I've read on one where Prophet Muhammad tells someone not to get angry 3x, meaning that the prophet discourages such feelings.

Yet in the same Hadiths, we have several reports of the prophet making decisions out of fury and even killing some visitors by chopping their hands and and legs off, and their eyes burnt with hot iron till they die.


Volume 8, Book 82, Number 794:
Narrated Anas:
Some people from the tribe of 'Ukl came to the Prophet and embraced Islam. The climate of Medina did not suit them, so the Prophet ordered them to go to the (herd of milch) camels of charity and to drink, their milk and urine (as a medicine). They did so, and after they had recovered from their ailment (became healthy) they turned renegades (reverted from Islam) and killed the shepherd of the camels and took the camels away. The Prophet sent (some people) in their pursuit and so they were (caught and) brought, and the Prophets ordered that their hands and legs should be cut off and that their eyes should be branded with heated pieces of iron, and that their cut hands and legs should not be cauterized, till they die.

SamuelAnyawu:


The North don’t emigrate for greener pastures outside Naija as most of them have this belief that their current ordeal is What God has destined for them.

Some other part of the country fully believes than an individual can get to the top against all odds.

That's another misconception. Yes, the north is religious but that is not what is keeping us from moving outside. And bigotry aside, the south is just as superstitious as the north if you look into the prevalence of money rituals, cultism, etc and the way many of them attribute world events and natural disasters to "endtime", "wrath of God", etc.

Migration is not just part of our culture and those that do it do so for various reasons. Even in the south, it's mostly Igbos that are traveling around. You can find them in countries that are 4x worse than Nigeria so people don't necessarily travel because of adversity at home.

AlBaqir:



This is an excellent observation. Allow me to add my inputs as follows:

1. To the Muslim fundamentalists, we need to be crystal clear that doubting or questioning a particular hadith does not necessarily meant one doubts the Messenger of Allah; rather, the doubt is on what is attributed to him that no one could say 100% its from him.

For a fact, neither the Prophet nor his companions authenticate any of the hadith compilations. For example, Sahih al-Bukhari was compiled almost 200 years after the demise of Imam al-Bukhari from a 50-page manuscript where many passages were left blank. How it transformed into 9 to 10 volumes containing 6000+ ahadith is still a mystery.

2. Authenticity of hadith:

Generally, there are two popular criteria to discern an authentic Hadith from false one: verification of the sanad (chain of transmission) and verification of the matn (content). Unfortunately, the former is 99% relied upon in judging the authenticity of Hadith while the latter is rarely used. This is the problem with Sahih al-Bukhari and sahih Muslim. All their respective ahadith are adjudged authentic based on the verification of their sanad but scholars disregard the matn of their ahadith. This is the reason why hadith will be classified as authentic while its matn opposed Quran and rationality blatantly.

Looking at the matn (content, text) of Hadith in line with overall Quranic injunction / message, historical facts or comparison with other Hadith that is widely reported is the best way to judge authenticity of Hadith. We have seen scholars who graded ahadith weak based on its sanad (chain of transmission) but authenticate the hadith based on its matn using aforementioned standards.

3. Sometimes, a hadith is half-reported (and that might makes it irrational) or a part of it is mistakenly heard leading to wrong meaning, or a part of the hadith is falsified, or interpolated. Here, scholars tried to sieve grain from chaff. However, I need to add that it is subjective to throw every hadith away because it does not fit into individual's understanding, and it is counterproductive to use empirical science to verify authenticity of hadith. This does not meant we should throw rationality and science away, both have been used many times to understand various ahadith.

4. When it comes to the fundamental Islamic messages and personality of the noble Prophet [peace be upon him and his progeny], the ONLY standard to judge the authenticity of any hadith on these two subjects irrespective of where it is documented is the holy Qur'an.

For example, Qur'an states emphatically that the Prophet had exalted and Sublime characters, and believers are enjoined to emulate him. If a so-called authentic Hadith describes him as a mean or base person, obviously such hadith is false despite its authentic tag. Another example is the age of Aishah when Prophet got married to her. In this case, no single hadith is attributed to the Prophet himself that his wife was 6 when he married her and consummated the marriage at 9. Verifying the hadith with history shows Aishah was between 19 - 21.


There are lot I intend to add but let me stop here for now.

Salaam alaykum.

Well said. Especially the last hadith, the idea that Aisha was married at 6 doesn't make sense when you look into other historical accounts. Unfortunately, this is what people are placing on the same level with the holy Qur'an

rowrowland:
A true seeker of knowledge and truth won't say that, ever. Just this little conversation with one fellow on nairaland- and you're fully convinced that sahih hadith's are untrue?! Are you indeed really seeking truths? Hadith's are already classified- meaning that some people did a lot of jobs(filtering, collecting, and more). Now you have doubts: Islam is for a sane mind- start asking scholars of hadiths questions (with an open mind of course). Pls also note that difference in genuine opinions are actually a blessing to this ummah. What is haram or halal is clear.

Read the dates of that comment and that of the first post. I dug deeper after making this thread and found more compelling evidence. There is no need to try to blackmail me with things like "you are straying from Islam" or "you have doubts"

LegalWolf:


Ya Akhi, your premise is sound and your logic valid. Jazakumu LLAHU khairan

Ameen. Thank you nrother

Another interesting Hadith:


Al-Bukhaari (1880) and Muslim (1379) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “On the roads leading to Madinah there are angels and neither infections nor the Dajjaal will enter it.”

compton11:
Sahih is not 100% percent reliable especially sahih Bukhari,thya book needs to be revised cos it has cause much wahala in Islamic world.

Unfortunately, some Muslims can go as far as calling you a Kafir because of this.

Usernamesucks:


Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakaatuh. Just so you know, the said Abduljabbar had a debate with scholars and he has since apologised for his statements.
https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/more-news/472970-kano-cleric-accused-of-blasphemy-apologises.html

Wa'alaikumu Salam brother.

I watched the video of the apology. It was made because many of us were accusing him of insulting the prophet, so he clarified it and apologized to those who felt offended.

Also, the debate was more of a Q and A session. They asked him to open the pages of all the false hadiths he mentioned in 10 minutes and he was unable to do so.

Faithful007:
What is happening in Nigeria can never be compared to America at all. Never!! Why are people emigrating to the US then. People are running away from Nigeria by boat, vehicles, Aircraft, Ship, basically anything that moves. And you say Nigeria is better. Something must be wrong with you.

Why did Europeans leave their heaven to come here? People move for different reasons.

Besides, most of the problems in Nigeria are more, far far more rampant in my region (Northern Nigeria) but we hardly ever travel for migration unlike the southerners. It's also the same in the case of other poor west African nations.

AntiChristian:


Insults? Ignorance and not wanting to learn is an ailment. You kept refusing to answer questions here and you kept rejecting the answers given.

May Allah protect us from the Shaytan that has infected your skul.

When next you come online do answer the following questions completely and explicitly as you can without using any Sahih ahadith.

1. Show us the Five daily prayers by their names in the Qur'an. Then mention where it is stated that we pray Fajr reciting aloud, Zuhr silently....

2. Show us the mode of praying Salah explicitly from the Qur'an including all the recitations from start to finish. How many Rakah has each Salah? Each Nawaafil?

3. Show us the ruling on Taharah & Istinjah as related to Salah from the Qur'an.

4. Allah says there are 12 months in the Qur'an. Show us the 12 Islamic months from the Qur'an?

5. How do you know how much Zakah to pay from the Quran?

6. It says in the Quran to shorten the prayer when you travel. How long do you have to travel in order to be eligible to have this privilege? How short do you have to cut the prayer?

7. The Qur'an says to cut the hand of the thief. Does the word 'cut' in the verse mean to cut off or to cut in the sense of making a mark, or could it be metaphorical and mean cutting off the resources of the thief?

8. The prophecies of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) came true from the hadith, thus proving that there are divine revelations sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) other than the Quran. How do you explain this?

9. The Quran says that men can beat their wives. But we know according to the hadith that this is meant to be a light beating that inflicts a spiritual punishment and not a harmful physical punishment. What is to stop a man from misinterpreting the Quran and beating his wife severely?

10. The Qur'an says that we must obey Allah and the Messenger (Surah 3:31-32,132; Surah 4:13-14, 59, 61, 64, 69, 80; Surah 24:56). There are two separate commands here. One is to obey Allah and the other is to obey the Prophet. In order to obey someone, he would need to issue a command. So if we want to obey Allah we have to do so by reading the commands of Allah in the Quran and adhering to them. If we want to obey the Prophet then we have to do so by reading the commands of the Prophet (peace be upon him) in the authentic hadith and adhere to them. Or is there another way?

11. It says in the Qu'ran (Surah 33:21) that we have the Messenger as a good example to follow. How would we know his example without the traditions to turn to?

12. We have different forms of reciting the Qur'an, which means that certain letters are taken away from the word or pronounced differently. Through authentic hadith, we know that these were accepted forms of reading approved by the Prophet (peace be upon him). But without hadith, how would we know this? Using the Qur'an alone, if I see that there are different forms of recitation then I would think that there is more than one Qur'an and I wouldn't know which one is correct.

13. In Surah 2:221, God forbids us to marry polytheist women. Yet in Surah 5:5, God says that we can marry the believing women and the chaste women from the People of the Book. This is a clear differentiation between believing women and People of the Book. You can't have a believing person today from the People of the Book who is not a Muslim. So if God were talking about the believing women from the People of the Book then He wouldn't have differentiated the "believing women" phrase from them. Furthermore, the believing people from the People of the Book were the ones who truly followed the teachings of Jesus and Moses, which are lost today. So by using the Quran alone, how do I know which verse was revealed first? Did Surah 2:221 come first and then God sent down Surah 5:5 making an exception or did God send down Surah 5:5 first and then send Surah 2:221 by completely prohibiting us from marrying the women from the People of the Book?

14. In Surah 24, verse 31 says "And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof" What exactly is this part that "appears thereof"?

15. Allah says in the Qur'an (Surah 75:19) that the Qur'an will be recited. But then in the verse right after (verse 20) it is also said that the Qur'an will be explained. If the Qur'an is self-explanatory then the only thing that needs to be done is reciting it out. However, in verse 19 the function of reciting is done and then in the verse right after, the function of explaining is done. Clearly these are two different tasks, which mean that reading the Qur'an alone would not give you the full explanation required. It has to be explained through some other source. What is that other source?

Two things:

1) Allah says we should obey the prophet, but how can we obey him when SOME of the reports contain glaring lies against him?

2) I did not in any part of my post say that all Hadiths are lies, you are deliberately assuming that because you are getting emotional. If I have to accept every report about prophet Muhammad just because sayings have been attributed to hin, then YOU must also accept all other Hadiths (including the "weak" ones and those that were completely discarded).

With all the blackwater and other war criminals comfortably residing in US today, it's only fair that we keep our super cop with us. He is not as bad as the soldier that shot down a civilian airplane in 1980, Iran (and got a promotion for it) without repercussions. Just yesterday, some 17,000 artifacts that had been looted during the Iraq war were returned (after they had made millions for Amerikkka) and we also have several allegations about USA stealing oil in Iraq and Libya.


If Abba Kyari is going to be prosecuted, let him face justice here. We need our son to continue his good work against bandits and boko haram. Shildren hate and stupidity can go drill themselves in their ugly butts if it offends them. God bless you Sir.

well. we are bad and everyone else is good. that's how brainwashed some people have gotten

That's the annoying thing. Anybody that says Nigeria is good is a big liar, but that doesn't mean we are the worst. What you are seeing here is even reasonable compared to Facebook users.

Funny thing is, they are the first to downplay every little achievements of the country while celebrating complaining about any negative thing about Nigeria.

If I come out and say that some terrorists were killed in Kaduna today, 60% will avoid the post whole 40% will look for ways to call me a liar but if I say that some soldiers were shot by bandits, no one will ask for proof. They'll be springing out of everywhere like ants

sizzorchan:
Isn't there a warrant out there for George Bush? haha. i think i remember reading that. this was a man responsible for over 100,000 deaths in Iraq by the way. who extradited him go anywhere. people funny sha.

One officer that shot down an Iranian airline in the 1980s (killing 290 people) was even given a medal in US. No questions, no displinary actions, nothing. I don't know if people are deliberately overlooking these things or they are really that dumb.

willybaby:
you don't remain patriotic you remain sane

Nigerians crucifying abba kyari already even without hearing his side of the story if true or not when same Nigerians are quick to shout human rights, so kyari has no rights now to have his own side of d story heard Abi..

I don't even want to hear Kyaris side of the story. If he did something illegal here, let him get justice here. If it were left to some nairalanders I swear they'd gladly return the Atlantic slave trade if it would please those white men.
