^^amin

..and now you remind me of the last words. May it be the shahada. amin.

Isiterere: Ah ah , binding tinz on point; no dey derail the thread o......

Your question is answered but you should have brought it to the Muslims section.

Bf/gf is wrong and is where the problem lies. In marriage of course, she is allowed.

sylve11: ok, the stake has been handed over to u, what can u do in ur own little capacity?

It is a work in progress

babyosisi: It is said that they even recite portions of the Koran during intercourse
I heard from someone who did youth service there
Some dey waka about with no peteri underneath the overall
The younger ones will leave their old Alhaji husbands and sneak out at night to service younger agile men

Doesnt it take a prost** to know another?

[quote author=babe_online]if the muslims dont patronize them, there wont be prostitutes.

P.S I am neither Christian nor Muslim.[/quote]Fact is, some people are being mischievous on this matter.

Every year, during ramadan, there is always a journalist going to brothels to ask them 'how market' and the news is always on the home page with the claim that market is bad because Muslims are fasting. Of course not all Muslims are totally righteous. No one is a saint. But does it not already show a mischievous intent by these reporters?

*that crime reduces in Ramadan is a good thing. In Islam we believe that satan is chained at this period and people(of all religions) are less likely to sin.

* It also shows an adherence to their faith by Muslims. Majority of these people may get forgiven for all their sins in thisbmonth.

*that Ramadan affects everything confirms the held notion that Muslims are the majority in Nigeria.

usefaith: Alhamdulilahi for guiding us to this right path of Al-Islam... I say jazakumullahu khairan to all that contributed. I am using this opportunity to implore all my muslim brothers and sisters to please, kindly pray to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) to heal my mum who is battling with 'stroke' now and all muslims in the world suffering illness or another... may Allah ease all our conditions

MAY Allah heal your mum and every other Muslim around the world. Amin

TVT KOKO: Is the so called 'holy land' not supposed to cleanse them of their sicknesses? SMH for these 'Devil stoners'

Muslims dont preach that kind of healing.

la furia: It is not all about passing law to stop young girls from marrying early but protecting from the beginning. In the North, young girls are married off early, in the south they are made to work as housmaid or go into prostitution. All these can be link to one factor; poverty. People shouldn't underestimate the power of poverty. Iaws or inspirational talks and campaigns about girls rite wont put food on their table.
We live in a sick world where people dont render help sincerely with out expecting something in return. So many things are simply just wrong in Nigeria

This is one of the arguments I have maintained since the child bride issue. Educate them, deal with poverty and these things would already be things of the past.

What is it with reporters always going to the prostitutes? Without ever proffering solution nor helping them out?It appears this time of the year is the one they choose all the time. Could it be that they go with ulterior motives?

How about going to the prisons for a change?


Lazy journalists with nothing new to offer.No wonder uneducated bloggers are taking their place.

Sissie: 2 and 3

Really?

I belong to 1/2/3 depending on the situation of things

May God keep him safe.

Well, I have been hoping that memory cards would be produced for human brains so that when the old professors die, there are others to continue from where they stopped.

The need to start learning from ABC would be there no more.

kunleee: By Allah willing i will not be able to attend d ajah venue again. As i type now,am on my way to ile-ife,got the d interview invitation last night. Brother's and sister's pray for a safe journey for me and a succesful interview alert after.

@Thirty, kudos for d effort in holding d mainland edition.jazakalahu khairan. I think insha Allah,i shld be available for it either on 28th july or 3rd Aug.

I pray for the best for You.

I am keeping my surname. His doesnt matter.

But his first name DOES.

If all Muslims give as Islam says, poverty should already be alien to us.


but then,

Those who do give have really good experiences. A woman once said that she started to have better returns when she started to give Zakaah. ma sha Allah.

LAGATA: salam! wow! jst seeing this... abeg dis is rly encouraging. Abuja people abeg lets work out something. will be glad to participate fully

You need a sponsor first or to decide the method of sponsoring the event.

tohirah: thanks bro
But I'm not sure I'll be able to come jare. The fare would be abt a thousand naira to and fro the place when I add the cost of yaba to obalende.

you can join the people planning for the mainland

thirty: That was my plan but It may affect Itikaf period. but if that should be, it is ok.
DATE - 3RD AUGUST 2013
TIME - 5PM
VENUE - GBAGADA, LAGOS
TOPIC - ?
Any other issues?

I think you should give I'tikaf a serious consideration. the acts of worship are more important than the feasts. 28th isn't a bad idea IMO since the people not attending the Ajah one are the ones considering the mainland.


I also think you should start your list already. something like,

1. thirty
2.

wa iyyakum. Amin

I was reading on a personality not long ago when I read of his last words to be 'oh wow oh wow oh wow'.

What immediately came to my mind was what I had learnt of the moments just before death. I decided to read more on it and share.

He isn't the only I have heard of. A woman describing the last moments of her husband had said, 'he was looking side ways, right and left until his final breadth'. I had wondered what she would have felt like if she knew what it connotes.

So, what does Islam say of the moments before death and why do dying people react the way they do?

This is only to remind us of death and to bring to our consciousness the need to become (more)steadfast in the deen. Death is after all the only thing everyone is certain of.

A hadith
Narrated by 'Ubada bin As-Samit:

The prophet said, "Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah (too) loves to meet him and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him". Aisha, or some of the wives of the prophet said, "But we dislike death." He said: It is not like this, but it is meant that when the time of the death of a believer approaches, he receives the good news of Allah's pleasure with him and His blessings upon him, and so at that time nothing is dearer to him than what is in front of him. He therefore loves the meeting with Allah, and Allah (too) loves the meeting with him. But when the time of the death of a disbeliever approaches, he receives the evil news of Allah's torment and His Requital, whereupon nothing is more hateful to him than what is before him. Therefore, he hates the meeting with Allah, and Allah too, hates the meeting with him."


The Departure of Believers Described

At the death of the Momin(righteous), the angels of death come and extend salaam to the Momin(righteous), at this time the Momin in the throes of death, smiles (Perhaps some of you may have seen this in a pious relative. The angels of death then gently call for the soul to come out.
From another reference (The Hereafter by Anwar Awlaki): When the soul of a believer who is righteous and innocent is removed, it comes out of the body like a drop of water sliding off the tip of the spout of a jug.

It is also reported that when the soul of the innocent leaves the body voluntarily when called by the angels of death, the eyes of the dying watch it leave.

For the non believer
However the soul of a disobedient person fights back and refuses to leave the body. His soul is removed forcibly and comes out torn and fragmented like a piece of cloth being pulled off a thorny bush.

The angels of death look frightening to him and the dying person is terrified at the time of death.

Verses from the Qur'an
Or do those who commit evils think We will make them like those who have believed and done righteous deeds - [make them] equal in their life and their death? Evil is that which they judge.(Q. 45:21)

Q. 8:50
https://c00022506.cdn1.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/8_50.png

And if you could but see when the angels take the souls of those who disbelieved... They are striking their faces and their backs and [saying], "Taste the punishment of the Burning Fire.




Q.47:27
https://c00022506.cdn1.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/47_27.png

Then how [will it be] when the angels take them in death, striking their faces and their backs?

The Journey of The Soul

This description is from a Hadith related by Abu Huraira (RA)
The angels of death arrive with a coffin for the soul of the Momin, perfumed with the fragrance of Jannah(paradise)


. The soul of the Momin is wrapped in the perfumed silk coffin and the angels ascend with it towards Allah (SWT) traversing the seven heavens.

.At each Level of Heaven the door is opened with a welcome, and the angel guards ask “ who is this pure (paak) soul that lived in a pure (paak) body? (The importance of remaining in taharah at all times is thus extremely important) until it reaches Allah SWT.

.The spirit is then returned to earth to remain with the body and it asks to be buried quickly (thus the muslim injunction to bury the body as quickly as you can)

.In the grave, the soul is returned to the body and the Munkar & Nakeer(angels) begin their interrogation.

Who is your Rab(lord)? The Momin says Rabi Allah
What is your deen(religion)? The Momin says Deen e Islam
Who is your Nabi(prophet)? The Momin gives shahada of Prophet Muhammad as Allah’s Rasool


When the same questions are asked fron the Kafir and the Munafiq he or she says:
“I don’t know” or “I said what ever other people said”

.The momin is then put to sleep gently and with respect and told that he or she will wake up on the Day of Judgment.


As for the disobedient and those who deny Tawheed of Allah:
Surah al Annam Allah (SWT) warns:

Q. 6:93
https://c00022506.cdn1.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/6_93.png


And who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about Allah or says, "It has been inspired to me," while nothing has been inspired to him, and one who says, "I will reveal [something] like what Allah revealed." And if you could but see when the wrongdoers are in the overwhelming pangs of death while the angels extend their hands, [saying], "Discharge your souls! Today you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation for what you used to say against Allah other than the truth and [that] you were, toward His verses, being arrogant."




May Allah keep us firm in His deen and save us from his punishment. amin.
