Islam › Re: Islam For Muslims: Side Talk Station by Empiree: 4:52pm On Oct 03, 2018*

May Allah preserve Alhaji Sulaimon Adegunwa. I benefited from his school. His Arabic school was free. He hired qualified Ustaz. I remembered like it was yesterday. No students paid a Kobo.

This was my 3rd Islamic education but my first professional Islamic studies. This was in Ososa, Ijebu where I studied figh as a minor. This was where I held my first and last Mawlud Nabi where I learned the conversion story of Sayyidina Umar ibn Khattab (ra). It was a stage play and I played "Alfa" who taught Fatima(daughter) and Saheed, son in law of Umar(ra).

This play was witnessed by dignitaries including founder of the school himself, Dr. Adegunwa. During Ramadan, his workers brought fresh bananas and fruits. He treated his students with respect. How I wish those days continue.

Across the street from ílè keu, Dr. Sulaimon built college of Arabic and Islamic studies and institution with extra curricular activities like soccer. My God, I played the heck out soccer back then. I can still remember all my Ustaz. The senior ones: Ustaz Murtadha, Ustaz Imam (ilorin), Ustaz Ismail (very handsome man), Ustaz Dhikrullah aka Arogunmasa cheesy

. He's called by this nickname due to his physique. But Ustaz Murtadha would mocked him by calling him "árógúnsáló grin

. Also Ustaz Badr, Ustaz Monsur (God, this man was so strict. We would take weeks before we moved on from Arabic alphabet because he wanted to make sure we had the right tarweed. He's short with full beard and light dark glasses, and he would beat the holy crap out of us if we failed tajweed).

Junior ones I don't know much about them (due to my one year absence) except one I remembered, Ustaz Hakeem. This is the one who asked me and my brother how did my sheikh do it? Lol grin

Dr. Sulaimon Adegunwa also built a duplex very close to ile keu to accommodate those Ustaz that came from distance. Basically, Ustaz Arogunmasa, Ustaz ismail and Alhaja. I don't remember Alhaja's name.

When our driver came late to pick up, these Ustaz would accommodate us sometimes till night. We had dinner there. Those days was love 100%. I remembered in 1992 during lecture and a news came that Alfa agba, waliy Olohun, As-Sheikh Adam Abdullah Al-ilory (ra) passed away. They stopped classes and all Ustaz said they had to go to Lagos to pay their respect.

They were his students which means I am sheikh Adam's student by proxy. I truly missed them now and I don't know where all of them are. If they are still alive, may Allah preserve them and cause us to meet again to see their boy now grown. Whoever passed to a great beyond amongst them, may Allah make their teachings and knowledge that I gained from them means of sadaqah jariyah. Amin

Islam › Re: Summary Of Things That Can Throw A Muslim Out Of Islam by Empiree: 5:21am On Oct 03, 2018*

Comanche:
Thanks for sharing this bro. Regarding your second point, in situations where someone has a late relative and summons some Alfas to pray for the dead, does that qualify as a breach to the point?

First it is optional. There is nothing wrong to ask Alfa to pray for your late relative. It is the same way when you do nikka, you invite alfa or imam. This is done worldwide. Ayah op cited in point number 2 is talking about kufar. Kufar of Mecca worshipped intermediaries just like Yoruba mushrikun do but not muslims. A muslim can ask fellow muslim to pray for his late relative. We do this everyday. It is also called tawasul. Prophet MUhammad(saw) used tawasul/intermediary of nabi Ibrahim(as) in solati Ibrahimiyah.

There are also some ahadith in this regard. The problem however is, some people in nigeria take it far for worldly gains. They go to firdau to source money from family of late muslim. This is wrong. So asking alfa to pray for your late relative is not haram at all nor it is reprehensible especially if the person died within 40 days due to a hadith. Some people are questioned in the grave up to 40days. Moderation is what we need.

What kind of things can be done that would benefit the dead?

The scholars agree that the dead person is benefited by the good things that he initiated in his lifetime. The prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) said: "When a son of Adam dies, his deeds cease to benefit him except three: a perpetual charity, a useful contribution to knowledge, and a good child who would pray for him." [Reported by Imam Muslim and the other six Imams]

As far as the good acts by the living people that will benefit the dead person, they are as follows:

Supplicating and asking for Allah's forgiveness for the dead: Allah (S.W.T.) says what can be translated as, " And those who came after them saying: 'O our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in good faith."' [surat Al-Hashr, (verse 10)] Also, this practice of praying for the dead is from the tradition of the prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.).

Note the Ayah is general. Other muslims can pray for your relatives. You can call Alfa to pray for your late relative. You should see that this is separate from the hadith which says a righteous child the deseased left pray for him.

Charity

The common Hadith says charity the deseased left behind will benefits him. But read this. Charity: the mother of Sa'ad Ibn Obada (R.A.) died while he was away, so he came to the prophet (S.A.W.) and said:" O messenger of Allah, my mother has died while I was away, would it benefit her if I gave charity on her behalf? He (S.A.W.) said: "Yes." Sa'ad said: "I would like you to witness that my orchard - Al-Mikhraf - is a charity on her behalf." [Reported by Imam Al-Bukhari]

You see that charity was given on behalf of the deseased apart from charity deseased herself left behind.

YOU CAN FAST ON BEHALF OF YOUR LATE RELATIVE

Fasting: A man came to the prophet (S.A.W.) and said:" O messenger of Allah, my mother died before she made up a month's time of fasting, can I make it up for her?" he (PBUH) said:" If your mother were in debt, would you have paid the debt for her?" he said: "Yes", he (S.A.W.) said: " A debt to Allah is more worthy of being paid." [Reported by Imams Bukhari and Muslim]

YOU CAN ALSO MAKE HAJJ IN BEHALF OF YOUR LATE RELATIVE

Hajj: A woman from Juhaynah (a tribe) came to the prophet (S.A.W.) and said: "My mother has made (Nathr) - (a promise to Allah) - to go to Hajj, but she died before she fulfilled her "Nathr". Can I perform Hajj on her behalf? He (S.A.W.) said: "Perform Hajj on her behalf. If your mother were in debt, would you not have paid it for her? Do it (all of you) because Allah is more worthy of being paid pack." [Reported by Imam Al-Bukhari]

So you can see it is not only there things that benefit the dead. You can do good deed on behalf of your late relative

after which I started doing it at my own time.

After taking a nap after the qiyam lail before fajr, I had this dream somebody telling me to do that prayer for seven days consecutively.

unfortunately I am not blessed with dreams. But I'm blessed with people around me who dream about me from my teenage years and it usually come to pass 80% of the time. If they had bad ones, for some reason it always turn out great. I have noticed this especially since I was in ilorin. When I said "people around me" I meant family from same father. Only one time ever a friend dreamed about me 5 yrs ago and he told me. He said good and bad dreams. The good dream can to pass just less than 2 months later. The bad dream bypassed. I saw it but good dream overshadowed.

I wasted no time, I did as prescribed and by the time I finished it, at least that problem was resolved say to like 80%. Then I started another round of seven days and I can tell you that everything was resolved completely by the time I finish the second one, alhamdulilah!

you just like me. I don't waste time at time. You can't imagine how hard it is hard for some to make Dua needless to say offer Rakat. Some people just find it hard.

I truly appreciate our Awliya. No be small job they do at all. They struggled. They don't just pray in times of difficulties. They pray in times of ease too.

Today is the very first day I used Google Earth on my laptop and I can tell you it is the greatest feeling in the world. It’s just like catching a flight and flying to any city in the world in a matter of seconds. Jesus, if you’ve never used Google earth before in your life, you’re missing out big time. It feels like flying from one country to another anyhow you like. It was as if I was controlling my own private satellite with a very powerful camera attached to it and I have complete power to zoom in and out of every city I want. You don’t need to have visa to visit that city you’ve always wanted to visit.

https://techcapon.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/sp797-1024x475.jpg

While it is a very exciting experience, I must also warn you that if you don’t have enough data don’t bother because it is very data consuming. No body on this planet can visit every city on earth but with Google earth, you can teleport straight to that city and have a street view of what it looks like. One of the most fascinating things about Earth was simply scrolling around to see what the world looks like from above. Now, you can get a much more realistic look at things. The 3D mode renders the world so you can see things from any angle, based on data from satellites and Street View. The “I’m feeling lucky” button blasts you across the globe to a random location and brings up a knowledge card so you can learn more. The cards include a description from Wikipedia, really cool.

My experience exploring Nigeria

https://techcapon.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Capture-1024x453.jpg

I was so disappointed that only about 5% of Nigeria is captured on Google Earth, the rest is just 2D satellite images from the sky. A far cry from what I saw in Ghana where almost every street on Ghana, Accra, Kumasi is fully captured. I dragged myself straight to Sambisa forest in Maiduguri hoping to see battlefield with serious action in pictures but was shocked to see lots structures with Aluminium roofs in SAMBISA FOREST. Hmmm, I fear o.

Islam › Re: Shaykh Adam Abdullah Al-ilory by Empiree(op): 5:11am On Oct 02, 2018

lanrexlan:
Who knows this man? This is sheikh Habebullah Al Ilory, the first child of Sheikh Adam Abdullah Al Ilory(RTA) and the rector of Markaz Arabic school In Agege. Empiree, do you remembered that I told you that I read a disturbing article about this man few years back? Unfortunately I lost my history and a lot of things was lost in the process .

Recently, during Ramadan I was watching this man lecture on MiTv and I was so eager to hear him because I never listened to him before. Then, he said something disturbing again, he said Eesa(as) is dead and he is never coming back. He further said all those hadiths that said he's coming is daeef. He said if he comes back, the Ahadith says he will kill pigs and break cross, he replied and said 'Anabi Eesa yoo Wa di alapata abi?' meaning 'Prophet Eesa will now turn to a butcher abi?' . I found this disturbing for a man like him to say that.

So I was very curious about what sheikh Adam Abdullah Al Ilory (RTA) say about the descent of Eesa. Since I think he should be following the footsteps of his father, will he contradicts him? So I went to one of ustahds and enquired about the view of baba Adam concerning the issue. He said baba wrote in one of his books that Eesa is coming. To be cocksure, when I arrived home from school for Eid I asked my cousin about this man and Baba's view on Eesa descent again, he replied in affirmative that baba also agreed that Eesa is coming back. I got this pics from my cousin.

My headache is that, there were hundreds of people who were listening to him that day.He is a popular sheikh in Lagos. What is Markaz turning to? This is not what the great man sheikh Adam Abdullah Al Ilory laboured for.

SHEIKH MUHAMMAD NASIRU KABARA (1914 -1996)

Sheikh Nasir Muhammad Al-Mukhtar Kabara, a noted Islamic scholar and philosopher was born in 1912 in Guringawa village outside Kano, Nigeria. His grandparents came from Kabara, a town under Timbuktu kingdom. His third generation grandfather— also from Kabara in Timbuktu — Mallam Omar, also known as Mallam Kabara was the only one from the lineage to settle in Adakawa in Kano city, before moving on to what is now known as Kabara ward, named after him. He was an accomplished Sufi in Timbuktu before departing for Kano.

The first thing Mallam Kabara did on settling in Kabara ward was to establish a school in 1787, of a sort commonly referred as (Zaure) School where the outer entrance hall of his house was converted into an Islamic school. This school possibly among the oldest recorded schools in Kano is now part of the Darul Qadiriyya household of Sheikh Nasir Kabara.

I swear, I'll really love this if it's possible, but then who's going to make corruption a capital offense? Of course a criminal will never make a law that will hinder his criminal activities.

Believe me, the laws are actually there in the Constitution. They failed to enforce them on top class people. But they enforced the law on the poor. This is not justice. This is why if some people talk about enforcing Sharia law, politicians and their mumu start talking about cutting hands and legs to make it look barbaric to evade justice. What is missing are sincerity and patriotism.

Unfortunately, it keeps getting worse and we as citizens have totally run out of option on what to do. It's totally beyond us.
And when you said we should continue dealing with it, are you not coming again?
I want out too o

coming back in Sha Allah. Just not gonna involve in your politics. Do you know that Nigeria actually has many benefits that citizens are entitled to just like Western world?.

I thought they don't have them. My in law was just telling me few weeks ago. Benefits (apart from pension and retirement), they have unemployment benefits, children allowance, elderly, child birth allowance, workers comp, food stamps, etc. But Nigerian politicians are not transparent at all. They supposed to advertise these things on TV for citizens to know their rights.

In the Western world, they always advertise different benefits programs on TV, newspapers and all media outlets available. Have you ever heard of "owo baba" that many Nigerians and foreigners from different countries get here?. I don't encourage it but Nigeria has that too. The problem is the people in charge sit on the money and they invest the money and make profits and reinvest again. The cycle continues and they never tell you people.

For instance, take a look at electricity. Is it money that they don't have to fix it?. You know this is fat lie. Even one politician can take care of stable electricity. But there are politicians who invest in generators. They will never allow for stable electricity in Nigeria, ever.

Imagine Indian community (ilupeju) and several other foreign communities in Lagos have stable electricity right inside Nigeria?. Tell me why it is so difficult to fix stable light in nija?. It means some powerful people are there making money off sufferings of their people. Even if president wants to reverse this nonsense, they make sure they block him due to checks and balances because president can not enforce law. Congress (Senate and House) do that. But these crooks are within these two powerful Houses. They will not enforce laws that put them to death or prison. But they make laws that give them imúnítì. That's where the problems lie. Not resources.

They need to do as Iran and China do. EXECUTE CRIMINAL POLITICIANS. This is not possible without sincerity and by getting rid of political godfatherism.

Such thing is nonsense.

See what I'm saying. People need to wise up and stop voting them for second term. They are not sincere. He used first term to cajole his people to get second term. But vote them out even if they performed nice the first term. Still vote them out if they start preforming nice at the end if their first term. Nigerians should be wiser by now.

I think for some reasons, it's a good thing, in so far the politician is on the right cause in his first term, to sustain his good work, I think it's always best to give him another opportunity. In Nigeria however, they use the first term to work hard and paint themselves good so they can get another term, and ones they do, they use it to squander everything. This country is a joke.

that's why you need to return to 1 term technic. Vote them out. Let a new person continue the good work from where the former stopped. If they are sincere about "good work" they did first term they would continue like that in another 4yrs. But they chose not to.
