Why do people think d ALUU 4 experience should have taught Nigerians some lessons?

How many Nigerians have access to d internet 2 av known what the thoughts of the few privileged enough to afford internet access think of the inherent system of jungle justice.

How many had electricity supply to have seen the offenders captured and charged?

Who would have wasted their money buying newspapers when the challenges of everyday living are still there?

In short,an average Nigerian is not informed.

[quote author=Ile-Ife]Nice judgement by the young, up and coming Grand Kadis of Anambra. keep it up! Sharia for Nigeria!! [/quote]Bigotry has eroded your sense of reasoning.



Maybe it is time Nigeria tries a new legal structure. Obviously,the populace no longer trust the existing ones.

One of the acts of worship that could outlive you(sadaqatul jaariyya) is d planting of trees.

For every human that takes shade under the tree and for every fruit eaten,you get a reward even after death.

tintingz: asfar i cover the part of my body that should not be exposed i dont see anything wrong in my dressing. . .what if Allah(swt) raised Mohammed(sa) among the scoltish(scoltland) people that means every muslim men must wear skirts?? buh Allah raised him an arab . . .

You know I had to google whiz kid to have a better understanding of what you dress like. Not too bad but some aint too good.

Am sure u know when slim fit is too slim and you would make the right decision.

True.if the prophet was yoruba,he'd prolly where buba nd sokoto and maybe if at this era,wear jeans.

[quote author=victory101•]How do we know your muslim interpreter is not lying? Even it's true, the confession was gotten under duress. Didn't you see how hear him say police have beaten him? It's obvious the man just want move with his life and just take the beating. What did he do btw? Steal? I thought the punishment was another barbaric law, that decapitation of his hands [/quote]If you had taken the time to learn what Islam truly preaches rather than being contented with the brainwashing of the media, you would have known that the cutting of the hand doesnt take place or is not done where there is no social justice. A man who has his fill but stealing out of greed gets the cut while petty thieves like d above get d beating. The public beating is all about the embarrasmnt which is expected 2 keep others from doing d same thing.

Wizeboy: Jazakumullahu khayran for the wonderful lessons.

Juma'at Mubarak to every brothers and sisters, May Almighty Allah grant us long and healthy life to witness more of this glorious and precious day on earth.

Happy Hijrah in advance

Wa iyyakum.

Praise be to Allaah.

When a believer enters Paradise, if his wife was righteous then she will be his wife in Paradise too. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “‘And (Eden) Paradise (everlasting Gardens), which they shall enter and (also) those who acted righteously from among their fathers, and their wives, and their offspring. And angels shall enter unto them from every gate…” [al-Ra’d 13:23]. Imaam Ibn Jareer al-Tabari said in Jaami’ al-Bayaan ‘an Ta’weel Aayi’l-Qur’aan (16/423): “[In the phrase] those who acted righteously from among their fathers, and their wives, and their offspring, Allaah, may He be glorified, is saying that there will be admitted to Paradise those who He describes as those who (interpretations of the meanings) fulfil the Covenant of Allaah, those who join that which Allaah has commanded to be joined [i.e., upholding the ties of kinship] and fear their Lord, and who remain patient, seeking their Lord’s Countenance, [and] perform al-Salaah – those who do the deeds mentioned in the three preceding aayaat. Those who acted righteously from among their fathers, and their wives, and their offspring refers to their wives, their families and their offspring, and their ‘righteousness’ is their faith in Allaah and their obedience to His commands and the commands of His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).”

They will be with their spouses, reclining in the shade of Paradise, filled with the deepest joy. Allaah says (interpretation of the meanings):

“They and their wives will be in pleasant shade, reclining on thrones.” [Yaa-Seen 36:56]

“Enter Paradise, you and your wives, in happiness.” [al-Zukhruf 43:70]

Among the bountiful and abundant blessings that Allaah bestows upon His creation is that if the believers’ offspring follow them in faith, they will be joined with their fathers in the same level of Paradise even if they themselves did not reach that level, so that their fathers may have the joy of seeing their offspring. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And those who believe and whose offspring follow them in Faith, - to them shall We join their offspring, and We shall not decrease the reward of their deeds in anything…” [al-Toor 52:21]

And Allaah knows best.



I apologise if I conveyed the impression that indolence will be rewarded

Ok. Wives and offsprings,if they were doers of good deeds would be rejoined with their husbands or fathers.

But they would need to have done enough deeds to make aljannah in d first place.

It would be safe for evryone to attain d highest level of piety they can. You never can tell how good is best.

Thank you for your effort

Since d video was aimed at making Islam look bad I cldnt trust the translation and thank God someone whi speaks hausa already confirmed that.

Why do christians lie to make Islam appear bad

davidylan: silly. the judge was clear there was no evidence against him from the prosecutor and no witnesses. so does sharia allow the innocent to be punished?

A guy already gave the translation that means d judgement was from his own confession.
Dont lie o.wldnt u rather be thrashed than aluunised in d same circumstance

BetaThings: I don;t think you read my post quite well. My points are these
1. It in in the interest of a womman to do deeds sufficient to make her go to Jannah. She is better off doing much more. But that admission to Jannah at any level is crucial. Same goes for a man
2. If a man wakes up at 4am and starts doing Tahajjud and the wife goes straight to the kitchen and starts making food and spends 30mins there. She now does 30mins of tahajjud and starts eating sahur at 5am while the husband also ends his tahajjud at 5am. If we assume that reward is based on time spent, does the the man get 2x the woman's reward. That will be unfair. Afterall she spent same a total 1hr in the service of Allah like her husband. If this held true, each will be cooking every other day
3 Suppose a man is always woken up at 4am for tahhajud (outside Ramadan) by his wife. But she does not do it because she is pregnant and the stress of that burden wighs heavily on her. Or we can even assume that she likes to sleep normally and only does 20 mins of tahajjud daily while her husband does 1hr. She will benefit from her husband's extra accumulation of good deeds
4. How? Like I said in 1 above, let us assume that her own good deeds put her in level 1 of Jannah but her husband is in Firdaous. She will not stay in level 1 because she has to be his wife in Jannah. So she will join him in Firdaous

I am not in any way suggesting she should curtail her efforts. I am just talking about report card on the day if qiyama
Now the above points also apply to the man. If he makes Jannah level 2 and his wife is in level 6, he will be promoted to level 6 to join his wife.

Allaah knows best

Can you quote reliable sources in support of your position?
We will only continue to argue back and forth.

But I do know that no one gets the reward for what they didnt do just like two friends who did everything together. The one who died later got into a higher position in aljannah.

A woman could get more reward by waking up earlier to do the cooking or could get someone else to do it for her or simply cook at night and warm it in d morning so as to make the most of the period of tahajjud.

Lazying around with the thought of getting the husbands reward or even getting busy with other things I do not! agree with.

tintingz: that's right......am not a turban wearer and dont have to be dressing like a pakistani, afganistan arab person naah! Allah(swt) only instructed muslims to cover their body and Mohammed(sa) gave us where to cover up not to dress like the arabs......infact i dress like wizkid buh no saging tho

U are right bout d turban thing. I thnk it is just a borrowed culture which many later attached meanings to. If u studied in d west u'd most probabky have a part of their culture leave with you. I thnk d same happened with the earlier Muslims in Nigeria. They imbibed some arab culture which are not necessarily parts of Islam.

That whiz kid part ehn
Reminds me of how the way you dress says a lot about you.

sino: Its not haram na, the shirt fine o, i gues i'll have to give it away, even though nigerians may not easily tag you gay cos you putting on a pink shirt, the thought of it alone is freaking me out.



You are right, there are only dress codes in Islam, once it covers the awrah then it is Islamic.
Lace are not meant for men, i prefer a guinea fabric anyday.

You dont have to give the shirt away o. Only red is mentioned in the hadith. And the gay thing doesnt apply in Nigeria. What too much television can do to d mind #mybad.

BetaThings: I think the point in the last sentence is "somewhat" valid. Women should do other good deeds, but if they are prevented by cooking etc, I believe they will get due rewards for all the time spent
Now what I mean by the woman being fine is this. A woman can encourage and support her husband to do good deeds (cooking while he makes Tahajjud) that will take him to a high level in Jannah. All the woman needs to do is do good deeds sufficient to just make jannah. Then she would be promoted in Jannah to her husband's level. I mean if she qualifies for level 2 by her own deeds while her husband's deeds got him to level 6, she will be promoted to level 6 to join her husband

Lai lai. I disagree with that. Each person will get the reward for their actions. If a man provides for his family,he'll be rewarded just like a woman taking care of d family's needs wld be rewarded. Even students wld be rewarded for their efforts. None of these take d place of the other acts which are general to everyone. See suratul ahzab vs 35. Allah refers to both men and women.

If the action of her husband is d determinant of her place in aljannah what do u say of d women who unfortunately have nonpracticing Muslims as huabands whereas they are good people or those who died before ever getting married.

A man's awrah is from the navel to the knees.

The elbows can be exposed.
Allahu a'lam

What is ur problem op? At least this got to a court. Would biafra have given him that chance?they would have aluunised him.

Being burnt alive and being lashed. Which is better?

Heheheh..interesting responses

And that is very wrong. Any clothing that is meant for men shouldnt be worn by women.

I think it startd wv people who wear white 2 their asalatu. Nasfat and co. And before u know it those clothings became tagged unisex..there is nothing uni about them.

Lol..too much remixing.

When I got to nairaland,I was like subhanallah
When I found Islam for Muslims section,I was like alhamdulillah
And then at some point I was like astaghfirullah
I made a you turn and y3lled Alahuma igfirli
I came back and was like Allahu Akbar

snubish: nice article deols, thanks for calling our attention to these. I am so guilty of the above, hope to change now inshAllah.
lol @ the bolded.

InshaAllah..may Allah make it easy

sino: Nice article deols,
personally, i hate guys wearing tight trousers, is it carrot or pencil they call it? i hate it so much, its appaling and they sag , they look so ridiculous, a normal person shouldnt do that, talkless of a muslim aargh!
i guess there is no problem with a fitted shirt?
On the issue of sirwaal(trousers), the pakistani style is a no no for me(i tried it once with a native), it looks very funny, i'll take the west's trouser any day, i just make sure its not tight.

hmmm so red is so gay? What about pink? OMG! I think i've got a pink shirt.

No mind them o.lol..and about that pink shirt,don't let me catch you wearing it..lol.
The awrah of the man starts from the navel..I dont think a tight shirt is bad but I wldnt say for sure.

And about d pakistani,Muslims sometimes confuse some Muslim traditions with Islamic ones. I see Muslims wear jalabiyya & would wear only it with d thought that it mmkes them more Islmaic. I also see people wear pakistani and indian styles for their nikkah..nothing wrong wv dat but they are not d only Islamic mode of dressing.

In fact our Buba and sokoto are very Islamic..not tight fitted and can be a lil raised above d ankles.

but oh,I dont like them in lace material,but then that is only my taste.

The land of Allah is vast. Until your religion is threatened, you could be anywhere. It is d land of Allah after all and you are one of the regents of Allah on it..

Skipping the tahajjud because u'r cookn is one oc d things we'v been campaigning agianst
Dont get me wrong, Women would still do the cooking but abeg they should do other things too.

In some homes,the food is d major focus during ramadan,and pple neglect d adhkar,nawafil e.t.c
A hausa girl I know of once told me that the women in local places would start cooking for iftar in d morning.

And another misconception that has kept women behind is that they need not do beyond these cookings. Once their husbamds go do the other things they are fine

I really like that this is being discussed.

I dont care too much about who gets into d white house esp.after realising that my support for his 1st time was of no benefit 2 me nor 2 my interests.

But it is very good to know and appreciate the need for Muslims to take part in decision making wherever they are.

I remember a pre election period in Nigeria when Muslim organisations were very much involved in asking people to go out and exercise the right to vote. It was amazing 2 find out that some Muslims think democracy is unIslamic and would not take part in it.

..and that footballer plays for which club?

OMG! Those pictures are absolutely beautiful.
Thank you so much @Mustay.
One of the pictures has Allah written in both arabic and english. The pic appears familiar but I never realised the art in it.
Thanks @Olawalebabs and Chakula too.

Pls add more!!!!

gone are the good 'ol days when NEPA would make announcements on the radio before taking off the supply.

is that not some double derailment and mine added, tripple?

@parislove, take your complaints to the right thread.

even though I have promised not to derail threads anymore, I feel the need to say the following.

First, apologies to maclatunji for seriously, the first thing that came to mind after seeing the posts deleted was, maclatunji again?.

I have seen many posts, which I thought were okay hidden on several occasions and I have heard many people complain about them.I didnt speak of my thoughts because, well, it wasn't my business. It just seems normal that with human communications digressions come up.they spice up what is being discussed.

and honestly these digressions are the reason people come back. An example is the thread on the home page right now which asks of the first thing people think of before getting married. the answers ended up being long lists. If all of those were hidden because they ddnt tally with the question asked, I wonder what would remain of the thread.

well, in summary, it would still be left to d discretion of the mod(s)

[quote author=lola.luv]Op, this is a good avenue for learning.

I'm not hitched but I learnt from a wedding I attended that a bride should get professional vendors by herself and not leave other people in charge of important things like the photography.
Someone said his contribution to the couple was a photographer. The photographer ended up managing 'film' throughout the wedding.
'E jor, take the brides snapshot', her dressers would beg as they dressed her.

'Ko si film o. Mi o le waste film', the photographer would mutter petulantly.

Imagine such nonsense happening in this world of digital photography we live in!
Today, she has still not gotten her wedding pics. It's almost 2 years after....

The bride's friend that did her makeup seemed to have the singular objective of making her look bad. See piles of poorly applied makeup on the poor bride's face. The 'makeup artist' also screamt at the bride as she did the makeup. Smh! Even if it's the last thing you do, keep frenemies far away from you on your big day!
The caterer sef, na another story.

Please, get professionals to give quality service.[/quote]at this age of digital photography?

mukina2: her post was hidden by me. . it has nothing to do with the topic

and your last post was also edited by me.

The thread i believe was created for pictures.


You should also stop derailing your own thread

ok..I will stop derailing but the one deleted has a picture and the thread is for pictures. believe me, I thought a conversation could ensue on what that picture means.

vedaxcool: deols shey osi?

o wa o

so much for being friendly
thanks

Actually, many of those things aren't easy. With the word easy, I was expecting the different kinds of dhikr and more about the hadith that speaks about charity. like, removing stones or harmful objects from the road, smiling at people etc.

May Allah make umrah and hajj possible for us all. you'd agree those aren't easy and women don't usually get to observe their solaat in jama'ah, theirs is better at home.
