LadunaI:wallahi, it is really true. Some wonder how you ain't go to jail yet and you live in America?. It if you have good credit score, they be like "how do you do it?". Fact is, the more debt ridden you are the more likely you have good credit with implication. They want you to be in debt forever. They don't want you to pay off your loan. Say for instance you financed a car for 30usd at 620 credit score, your score is considered "fair" which means your interest rate may be high as much as 8-10%. With financed charge of $9-10k for 5years. That's $40,000 you have to pay in 5yrs. But a smart customer should never wait for 5yrs. If you pay off early like within a yr, you saved extra 8k. You end up paying 31k and change. You beat them. But guess what?. You think your score will go up but most likely it won't go up that much. The good news is that you are debt free but what happens is, once the loan is paid off, your account will be closed. Because it is closed it doesn't have long credit history. That's why your score wont go up. Score and credit history determine your worth. They want you to keep paying small amount every month for 5yrs to establish "good credit". What ignorant people don't understand is that good credit don't out food on their table. But to be debt free is gold. So you have to have criminal record and be debt ridden to be a good American it is a trickHelp yourself, sir ![]()

Rashduct4luv:is anything need to be said after posting clear text?. I didn't even interpreted or gave my opinion on the hadith. I only showed you that food takes precedence over prayer if both coincide simultaneously. There is no need to twist anything. |
Rashduct4luv:No Salah When Food Is Presented Chapter: It is disliked to offer salat in the presence of food that one wants to eat. It is disliked to offer salat while restraining the urge to relieve oneself, and so on Ibn Atiq reported: Al-Qasim was in the presence of 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) that I narrated a hadith and Qasim was a man who committed errors in (pronouncing words) and his mother was a freed slave-girl. 'A'isha said to him: What is the matter with you that you do not narrate as this son of my brother narrated (the ahaditb)? Well I know from where you picked it up. This is how his mother brought him up and how your mother brought you up. Qasim felt angry (on this remark of Hadrat 'A'isha) and showed bitterness towards her. When he saw that the table had been spread for 'A'isha, he stood up, 'A'isha, said: Where are you going? He said: (I am going) to say prayer. She said: Sit down (to take the food). He said: I must say prayer. She said: Sit down, ) faithless, for I have heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: No prayer can be (rightly said) when the food is there (before the worshipper), or when he is prompted by the call of nature. Reference : Sahih Muslim 560 a In-book reference : Book 5, Hadith 84 USC-MSA web (English) reference : Book 4, Hadith 1139 There are other valid excuses but laziness, tiredness work, school etc are not excuses. Those who are in school or work, this is why it is recommended to always be on wudhu. You can definitely offer salah in your exam room. You may even use your eyes to pray. Salah is absolutely obligatory. It is the only obligatory act commissioned from above.. Eamples of other valid excuses are: Emergency, like you are a medical doctor and a patient needs immidiate attention and it falls in the time of salah, saving life is more important at that moment. A pregnant woman in labor at the time of salah etc The hadith you quoted only established valid excuses. It doesn't mean those are the only 2 valid ones. |
AlBaqir:interesting. Like I never read the Ayah before. Well, there are difference of opinion about a Muslim who kills fellow muslim intentionally. That, as long as the person is muslim, possibilities exist that he will not abide in hell forever because the only sin that will not be forgiven is shirk. Only ibn Abass(ra) had different opinion. He maintained the Ayah as it is. But other scholars differ. They said if such killer makes tawbah before he dies he may be forgiven. Anyways, Yazidi is in big trouble for real unless Allah forgives him. And Allah can do that. Overall, he had bad record. Yes, there are other leaders who did worst than Yazidi. |
LadunaI:indeed, this is something Nigeria needs intelligent wise as long as it is not abused. It does get abused here in some cases. That's where the problem is but it works fine to curb crimes. Just that actual innocent people get caught up in the process. Some people can't leave crimes. That's why the guy doesn't want to come to US. Crime is in his blood. That's why average Americans go to jail. There is a saying that if you don't have criminal record you are not real American or your are not American enough. So it surprises some people if you have clean record ![]() |
LadunaI, See trait of what I was talking about. I just learned few hours ago that a Nigerian guy was arrested and jailed for selling cars from US to nija. I told this American girl who told me that it is not a crime. There gotta be something he was doing Wrong. So she said authority wanted to know source of his funds and how he managed to buy expensive cars and send them to nija to sell. But unfortunately he can not prove this. Instead of jailing him after conviction, they gave him two options: work for them (i:e snitch on the people he was dealing with or be an informant) Or Go to jail So he chose the later and was jailed. He said he's can't snitch on people. See how America works sometimes. This is how they catch drug dealers too. But snitch/informant is deadly job. Your life is on the line and authorities don't care if you die in the process. They did the same thing to a young white girl few yrs ago. She was caught with high kilograms of illegal drugs and was facing 4yrs in prison. She was crying so bad bcus that was her first time. So police made a deal with her to lead them to bad guys whom she deals with. She was to be police informant without given her proper training. They only gave her device to place on her body. She thought it was easy. The next day after she was assigned the "job", authority found her lifeless body in the bush in Florida. Gangs killed her and took spy device on her. The best way to avoid getting in this mess is to stay away from crimes. That way, it will be difficult for police or other agencies to force you to be their stooge. But once you committed crimes, even if you are not indicted yet, they can use it against you. They just give you two choices, jail or snitch on others. Now imagine someone going to jail for decades but offered this opportunity to be informant and get paid on top of it?. Arab guy was in the same situation after 9/11. He spied for govt and built his fortune from that. Some make as much as $100k per yr snitching on others. Our world is not fair at all. So this Nigerian guy, from what I gathered, he committed money laundering in the eyes of the govt. This is why I rejected Mr. A in the story I narrated weeks ago in this thread. Imagine he wanted to buy 100 cars for $100k each and he doesn't want to declare his business officially and wanted to have money transferred into my account. Obviously I would have been in trouble. |
There are more than these two. There are other legitimate excuses in shari'a. |
Alhajiemeritus:I copied this from Islamqa Yazeed is one of those whom we neither curse nor love. There are others like him among the khaleefahs of the two states (Umawi/Umayyad and ‘Abbaasi/Abbasid) and the governors of various regions, indeed there were some among them who were worse than him. But the issue in the case of Yazeed is that he was came to power forty-nine years after the death of the Prophet SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him); it was still close to the time of the Prophet and some of the Sahaabah were still alive such as Ibn ‘Umar who was more entitled to the position than him or his father or his grandfather.You can read further about the 3 categories of people about him https://islamqa.info/en/14007 Fact is, he was gravely wrong. If his faith in the open was Islam and he did not openly renounced Islam till his death, he still has the right as Muslim to certain extent. This was someone who killed the grandson of the prophet (saw), obviously, from that perspective, Allah will pronunce curses on such fellow. He didn't just kill ordinary human. So my position is, amongst us muslims, the respect he gets is just for being muslim. It is optional to pray for him. But I won't support raining curses on him every time his name is mentioned. That's reserved for shaytan. But if someone wants to curse him occasionally, they can go ahead. He was not a potential sahabi. He was a wicked tyrannical ruler. |
What messed up Yoruba history is lack of documented facts. This rendered all their silly stories useless. But one thing is clear, we can not condemn everything in Yoruba folklores in connection with Islam because Quran teaches that Messengers were sent to every nation. And We certainly sent into every nation a messenger, [saying], "Worship Allah and avoid Taghut." And among them were those whom Allah guided, and among them were those upon whom error was [deservedly] decreed. So proceed through the earth and observe how was the end of the deniers. sūrat l-naḥl (The Bees) Ayah 36 So most likely messenger was sent to Yoruba land as well but somewhere, somehow, the people corrupted message of Islam their Prophet brought and worshipped taghut. Remnants of the corrupted message is Ifa Oracle which in itself is now utterly by corrupted to the level of shirk. It is clear from this Ayah that Islam was the real esin abalaye or ìsésé. So if messanger was sent to Yoruba people, obviously, that messanger must have foretold Prophet Muhammad (saw) which some ifa people discribed "Alfa Oni lawani gbangba". It is Yoruba traditional worshippers that need to make tawbah and embrace Islam.. #myopinion |

you're very funny sir. How do you know that for sure lol. This is a gentle guy, an IT geek. It just that he has reservation for possible implications for crime you don't even know or really intented doing. Like what you alluded to about their abuses of their spy operations that can implicate innocent people. This is somebody that had his elementary sch in US before moving down.
food can not let you miss the prayer till the time of that prayer goes! You may miss congregation though!
