Female dress code, modern scientific inventions and stem cells??
I think It all depends on the individuals. . . . . . .
There are zealots who turn things around to suit themselves while there are normal people who accept changes.
I have got many muslim pals here in London and they embrace the new world without stress.
Although GAY MARRIAGE is still a no-no to em just like some Christians will not embrace homosexuality.

Better answer from a non muslim.

Who says Islam is not changing?
some death by stoning offences are now jail times
some Islamic countries now make polygamy illegal
The hijab and burqua are not allowed in some schools and Universities,Turkey is an example
That's progress and modernization
marrying underage girls is illegal now in some
and women are now more that tilths in some places
that verse in the koran about husband scourging their wives has the word "lightly "added to it and the modern translations have taken it out outright
They now try to prove that aisha was older than 6 because they now know pedophilia is a crime and frowned at by decent human beings
Even the meaning of jihad has changed from holy war from when Usman dan fodio did his thing to struggle by modern muslims.
Some muslims now outrightly condemn barbaric acts like stonings and amputations and honor killing which were accepted in mohammed's time
Muslims now listen to music despite Mohammeds disdain for it
killing of apostates is now illegal in some muslim quarters despite what the koran said

Gbam!!!!

@Bold, Tunisia recently adopted that rule too.

@Queenisha

He that knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything you wrote, [b]hope you will have the courage to repeat them on the day of judgement.[/b]

Which judgment? we christians shall not be judged because Christ already paid the price. Good luck on your judgment before God and I hope you can afford a good moslem lawyer by then. How can Queenisha be judged when she'll be on the right hand of God asking Him to have mercy on your soul because you refused to accept Christ when you were in the world?

Men but the truth is who are we going to blame, is it the man that built a property in the wrong place or the government that is just rememberin to restructure after a long time. I think the Gov shld re-compensate him but how much Oga sorry o! Did u vote for Babatunde Fashola? If u did den your good deed is comin back to hurt u but if u didn't den he is punishin u for not votin for him. either way man, God dey. Cast all of your cares on Him ok

Good point, but the problem in Nigeria is that most citizens do not know the right and wrong place because most of these properties were sold to them by the government themselves.

Deepzone, Islam is not like Christianity or Judaism or Hinduism or Taoism or Atheism, etc which can always change from time to time. Only falsehood changes. Truth remains firm and constant.

@Olabowale, LittleB just confirmed that artificial insemination has been approved unanimously by the islamic community, Is that not a form of change?

How does the islamic religion adjust to the changing times in the new world order? I'm sure a lot of things found in the original koran are outdated in the modern world. How do they annex modern developments like artificial insemination, stem cell, gay marriage, female dress code, modern scientific inventions etc into the Islamic doctrine? Do they have a body in Mecca that approves the indoctrination or is it a question of do what you deem fit?

I am confident ma seeds would swim backwards to where they spurted from instead of swimming upstream. Grin Cheesy
With all the farticles in DeepZone's system?? ?? Even Mike Tyson will find it hard to keep an erection.

Roflmao. when i said before that this dude has a low sperm count, y'all will start acting like I'm dissing him. It's only a weak sperm from a non potent man that will swim backwards. In the world of sperm motility, backward swimming is a NO NO.

He just shot himself in the leg.

Ignore the precaution at your own peril.

DeepZone is not a marriage material. . . . . . You guys should stop massaging her ego

DeepZone ponders why on earth Celestine babayaro should fly thousand miles to engage with her in the US when she's not a marriage material according to testicleLESS Hannibal, I see an element of jealousy here but why? I've told this dude before that he's not "UP TO". My undies will remain a mirage to you as long as you LIVE.

You need a real man not all those fantasy you come spilling on the forum. If you are honest enough, you just might get Hannibal. Cheesy

With your farting, you do not need a heater, you need an Air conditioner. Keep looking for the famous man to marry.

Can't we fart during winter again?

Deepzone, hold on to Hannibal very well. If you need to visit Okija_juju, I have the connections and you get discount too.
Don't let him out of your sight. We can't afford him going back to Hanniwater o!

Why should I hold on to a Eunuch?

We can even make the name sweeter add a few letters and it becomes a little trendier

[size=14pt]Each day, I feel like committing suicide [/size]
, Says man whose bakery was demolished by Lagos State govt
Wednesday, August 27, 2008

Until that fateful day in May this year, Joseph Adewoye, chairman and chief executive officer of Uncle Joe Bakery in Ajegunle area of Lagos, could never have envisaged the cruel fate that was to be his lot. But since May 2, 2008 when his bakery was demolished by the bulldozers of Governor Babatunde Fashola’s task force on illegal structures, life has become a bitter pill.





The demolition, he says, has denied him and his family their means of livelihood, keeping them in perpetual state of hunger and impoverishment.

Since the incident, suicide, he confides in Daily Sun, has never been too far away from his mind. What keeps discouraging him from taking the fatal plunge into the lagoon is the strange feeling that the government will soon do something to ameliorate the suffering of his family, he says.

“Since the demolition of my bakery, my family has been suffering. I have not been doing anything. I’m now so abjectly poor that I cannot feed my family. It is difficult to believe this, but it is true. The demolition has suddenly turned me into a beggar. I find it difficult to train my children in school. I’m tired of this sinful world. At times, I feel like committing suicide but something in my heart keeps telling me that the government would soon come to our aid. So, I just keep praying.

“I must tell you that I have already lost hope in life. Unless the government does something, I’m finished. The frustration in life is so much. I’m now a laughing stock and each time I remember this, the idea of committing suicide would come to my mind.

According to him, even his erstwhile tenants have turned him into an object of contempt.

“A man who rented some square metres of my land where he breaks and sells firewood was owing me one year and six months rent. He was paying N1,200 per month. But after the demolition, he told me straight to my face that he was no longer going to pay me since the land belongs to the state government. When he said that, I felt so bad because I bought the land with my money and got clearance from the local government. But for my tenant to tell me to go to hell, that the land does not belong to me gave me sleepless nights. He is still using my land without paying me.”

His efforts to dispose his N25 million baking machines to raise some money have also been unfruitful. “My machines worth about N25 million are still lying outside at the mercy of criminals. I don’t have where to keep them. They are too big. You cannot keep them in a room. I’m ready to sell them but I have not seen anybody interested in buying them,” he laments.

Adewoye says he harbours no ill feelings against the Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola. All he wants is some compensation. “I’m not against government policy. But I’m saying this because it has affected my means of livelihood so badly. My brother, I cannot sleep in the night. I will be thinking till the next day. No matter how hard I tried to sleep, it would not work and I now depend on sleeping tablets.”

The baker described his wife as a mere petty trader whose business is grossly inadequate to feed the family. He says whatever savings he made in his bakery business have since gone into the education of his three children.

“I have been begging now to get money to feed my family. You can see how life changes. Now I can only go and look at where I packed my machines and go home,” Adewoye says.

[size=14pt]FG moves to check NSE meltdown[/size]
From Damilola Oyedele in Abuja, 08.27.2008
Wednesday, August 27, 2008

A 16-man Presidential Advisory team has been constituted by the Federal Government, in its bid to stem the continuous fall of stocks in the Nigerian capital market.




Comprising members from the public and private sectors, the team would meet regularly to articulate and implement medium to long term measures necessary for healthy growth and development of the capital market.

Members of the team include minister of finance, minister of justice/attorney General of the Federation, minister of National Planning, Chief Economic Adviser to the president, Governor of CBN, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, DG SEC, DG NSE, DG Debt management Office, Managing Director Union Bank, Plc, Managing Director, Access bank, Plc, Managing Director, Intercontinental Bank, Plc, Bolaji Balogun, Ebilate Mac-Yoroki, Kayode Falowo and Oladipo Aina.

Briefing State House Correspondents after the meeting with Vice President Goodluck Jonathan and stakeholders aimed at stabilising the Nigerian capital market, Usman said the current situation had been a source of concern to the Federal Government.

Government, through the office of the Attorney General of the Federation, is to also issue an exemption to permit share buy back up to 20per cent.

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Nigerian Stock Exchange(NSE), will also take administrative actions to stem the rate of new listings, until the market is stabilised. SEC, NSE and all capital markets operators have also agreed to reduce their fees significantly, while modalities for establishment of capital market stabilisation fund are being worked out.

In the same vein, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has started taking measures to improve the liquidity situation in the economy.

According to him, the presidential team which is expected to meet regularly, took far reaching decisions at the meeting, which include setting up of a presidential advisory team on the Nigerian capital market. He also revealed that NSE is taking steps to review its trading rules and regulations.

He said effective from today, maximum downward limit on daily price movement had been pegged at one per cent, while the current five per cent limit on upward movement was retained.

SEC, he said would release guidelines for market makers on the Nigerian Stock Exchange before the end of the week.

Speaking further, he said:

“A Presidential Advisory Team on the Nigerian Capital Market has been constituted; The Office of the Attorney General of the Federation has been directed to issue an exemption to the provisions of the relevant sections of the Companies and Allied Matters Act, 1990 on share buy-backs to permit quoted companies to buy back up to 20% of their shares. The Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval would be necessary before any quoted company is allowed to undertake any share buy-back.”


“The SEC, the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) and all Capital Markets operators have agreed to reduce their fees significantly. For example, the NSE with effect from Wednesday August 27th will reduce its fees by 50%.

“The modalities for the establishment of a Capital Market Stabilization Fund are being worked out to intervene promptly, effectively and prudently in the Nigerian Stock Market as the need arises. The CBN is taking appropriate measures to review the liquidity situation in the economy and take appropriate measure to improve the liquidity in the system if required.

“The NSE is taking steps to review its trading rules and regulations. In the interim, effective Wednesday 27th August, 2008, it has taken the following steps : one per cent maximum downward limit on daily price movement whilst the current five per cent limit on upward movement is retained; The SEC would release guidelines for Market Makers on the Nigerian Stock Exchange before the end of the week; Henceforth there will be strict enforcement of NSE’s listing requirement with zero tolerance for infractions. The SEC and NSE will also take administrative actions to stem the rate of new listings until the market stabilizes; Having gone through the steps for delisting, the stock exchange will delist all the moribund companies earlier advertised.”

He also said, “ Nigerian banks would restructure existing facilities extended to licensed stock brokers, institutional and individual investors to allow for longer repayment periods.

“Nigerian Banks would partner with market makers to inject funds into the capital market through appropriately structured credit facilities.”
