You can go to the place and join them in slapping and beating the hell out of yourselves.

lol, but op only talks about ziyara now. Why are you insecure?

iamgenius:
Next time post your threads in the Religion section not here. This is a Muslim section.

LOL, ziyara is sunnah my friend. Don't be oversabi

tintingz:
So why did you mention me?

because the guy is divergent

tintingz:
Cousin marriage is part of incest which Islam permit.

We talking about sister here

tintingz:
God approved it.

Silly excuse.

Anyways, it's their business as long as it's not a rape case, my concern is the child might be a birth defect.

Reject bigotry. God didn't tell him anything. He never had God's voice.

Marrying one's sister is HARAM. Very simple

Tintingz, your brother did it again

I wish I could wait until you finished. So far, everything you have been saying to counter jinn catching practices doesn't prove it is unlawful to do so. And neither catcher nor raqi claimed to believe everything Jinns say to them.

Who's blocking chief albaqir's now

madridguy:
We Muslims are practicing other side of ISLAM. Why beaten the man?

Sad, isn't it?

PAIN

true2god:
Fabricated hadith.

Hkana:
Albaqir there was something you said about nafs on page 17. I'm interested in that "different" Adam and Eve creation story

Modified. Done reading through the thread. A lot was shared here.

Empi.ree I noticed you did not share that Alagemo story anymore and that story about someone in Germany
Share with me bro

lol. Other brother askedd too in another thread. Bottom line is that I forgot most part. I only remember how it started and fairly how it ended. But it is mostly forgotten. This was around 1990-1993.

For the guy in Germany he's better now. He brought the problem on himself by sleeping and staying alone like homeless in isolated abandoned building despite been offered a place to live. So we later discovered jinn enticed him to spend his money on casinos. Money given to him by the govt to manage himself. Shackle of the jinn is broken now and he stopped going to casino. Said he has no idea what he was doing. Said something kept telling him to go there and spend the money for a big win. I asked him 2 weeks ago if he won anything he said no. Said he wasted money including the ones we gave him. I said "see why Islam says not to get involved in this thing".

Pataricatering:
resign from that job ! A brother already advised you that working anywhere images are produced is haram !

you people keep saying this. This is not a long term solution. What guarantee does she has to getting another job?. Think people, think please.

Survival comes first.

Those who are giving fatwa that she should quit her job, please look at their economy situation. They are well off. Clearing the pictures or animated object from qibla is enough. Khalas!


You guys need to be more exposed to reality. The Hadith used to go against pictures or animated objects was specific to something not general rule. Islam has solution for every situation. It is not rigid on situations or conditions that are flexible.

JegaQuin:
Bro are you saying they can be be around the room she's praying as far as she doesn't face them praying? Do you have dalil for this?

so start arguing over irrelevance?.

emekaRaj:
True, at some point in ur spirituality journey u must encounter shaiytan perhaps it's a test from Allah to test ur resolve, an many has failed d test.

Also am not sure if auzu bilahi is sufficient anough all the time, because some of those jinn might be a hypocrite Muslim sometimes.

May Allah guide us all

true. Sometimes you need to retreat. This doesn't mean giving up on them or a defeat, but a strategic scheme to return with full force

That's why when Sheikh AbdulQadri Jilani (ra) encountered Jinn during his journey of "tassawuf", he would say to shaytan who disguised as God "auzubillah mina shaytan rojim" and he disappeared.

When it comes to dealing with Jinn, it should be only those who are firmly grounded in know of fiqh. Knowledge should proceed everything. There is no way a Muslim especially devoted ones would not encounter shayateen through their journey of ihsan.

princeking2:
You are very correct. The Hausas are patriotic but they are much more terroristically patriotic. It is the kind of patriotism that is globally rejected and openly condemned.
Anyway, do you have a chilled coke? I just exhausted mine advising you.

Instead of wishing him 'good luck and congratulations', you Igbo people retorted to tribal abuses. I begin to believe what folks said about you. You guys are disgusting. And I am sure not all of you are like this bcuz i am not a bigot that generalizes people. Keep it up.

Note that those Western countries don't care which tribe you belong. You are simply Nigerians to them. But you people have taken it upon yourselves to be irrational and bigotry.

Remembering Philosopher-King Shaykh Adam Abdullah Al-Ilory (1917-1992)


Whatever his intention was then, Chief Abiola was not prepared to give up on his desire to contribute to the progress of Markaz. He refused to be cowed by the uncommon austere or rather puritanistic personality he had encountered in Shaykh al-Ilori. Eventually he came to Markaz with yet another car- the third car. Having refused the offer of a car gift for the first and second time, Shaykh Al-Ilori then hesitantly and grudgingly accepted the car. But the lessons to be learnt from the encounter had not yet been exhausted. We were told Shaykh al-Ilori never set his foot inside the vehicle up till the day he transited to the great beyond.


Subhanallah!



Philosopher-kings usually know the ways and wiles of kings; they are well imbued with the styles, the politics and the histrionics of their fellow philosophers. Philosopher-kings usually know the kings; they know when to adulate the latter and when to abominate them.

I thought the above stories were highly instructive. They were instructive of yet the continuing effulgence in the life and living of the polymath, the scholar and great intellectual who happened to be Shaykh al-Ilori.


“People say I am a Sufi…” Shaykh Al-Ilori wondered. “Yes..I am a Sufi as long as tasawwuf means indifference to what is with people and yearning for that which is with the Almighty. I am a Sufi only if tasawwuf signifies the unveiling of unseen realities and inspired knowledge of the Creator”.

Sheikh Adam Abdullah Al-ilory {Rahimahullah} 1917-1992

Remembering Philosopher-King Shaykh Adam Abdullah Al-Ilory (1917-1992)


Thus Shaykh al-Ilori, after having contemplated the brand new car brought to him by the extremely wealthy Chief Abiola, then calmly asked him the following question: “are you aware of the Council of League of Imams and Alfas in the region?” Chief Abiola responded in the affirmative. Shaykh Al-Ilori asked him another question: “Do you know that that Council has a leader and that presently neither the Council nor its President has an official vehicle?” Chief Abiola was taken aback. He said he was completely aware of that fact. Then Shaykh al-Ilori told him to take the vehicle to the President of the Council and hand it over to him.



Soon after the incident, people began to tell different kinds of stories. But those who knew Shaykh al-Ilori very well were fully aware that he was an incorruptible scholar; that rather than run after the world and its temporary enjoyments, it was actually the world that was running after him. But the above was only the beginning. Soon thereafter, Chief Abiola came back to Markaz with yet another car. Once again, Shaykh Al-Ilori politely refused to accept the car. He asked Chief Abiola: “Do you know that I came from Abeokuta, Ogun State and that the leader of Imams and Alfas in the State has no official car?” Once again, Chief Abiola pleaded ignorance. Again, as it was in the beginning, Shaykh al-Ilori asked him to take the car to the Imam in question. It was lesson number two for those were living witnesses to the incidents. Exactly what and where lie your worth? Does your worth lie in money or in the acquisitions of these earthly possessions?



Subhanallaah

Remembering Philosopher-King Shaykh Adam Abdullah Al-Ilory (1917-1992)


Now I had to side-step all of the above in deference to some of the highly insightful and memorable stories shared with me and another Professor by a former student of Shaykh Adam Abdullah al-Ilori, himself a Senior Professor, a former ‘this and that’ and currently a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of a popular Federal government’s agency. An excursus into aspects of the life of the intellectual prodigy and a stellar intellectual of uncommon characterization that was Shaykh al-Ilori, was an actually an happenstance. We did not set out to relive his life. Rather we were immersed in the discussion of the challenges confronting Muslim scholars of today. We were lamenting how individuals who ordinarily should represent the cremé-dé-la-cremé of our society have become charlatans in the cathedral of the devil. Professor then recalled at least two instances in which the life of the late Shaykh began to have lasting impacts on his vision and mission in the world. It was a story he told, with relish and passion, in storeys.


One day, Chief M.K.O Abiola, the late popular philanthropist and, according to some critics, the best President Nigeria never had, paid an unscheduled visit to Shaykh Al-Ilori. To be visited by Chief M.K.O during those years was to be visited by riches and fame; to visit that great man of yesterday, indeed what a great man he was, was to have an appointment with wealth, though temporarily, and affluence. Thus came Chief M.K.O Abiola to Markaz that day. According to our teacher and senior colleague, the Chief came to the Markaz with an unsolicited gift for Shaykh Al-Ilori -a brand new car. After exchanging pleasantries with Shaykh, Chief Abiola then announced with great pleasure and happiness the gift he has brought to Shaykh. Little did Chief Abiola know then that he had come to pay a visit to a Philosopher-King. Chief Abiola did not reckon with Plato’s assertion during the classical period that “there will be no end to the troubles of the state or indeed of humanity until philosophers become kings or until those we now call kings really and truly become philosophers.”

Remembering Philosopher-King Shaykh Adam Abdullah Al-Ilory (1917-1992)


In the name of the Almighty, the Beneficent the Merciful “And do not say of those who are killed in the cause of Almighty that they are dead; no, they are alive but you do not perceive (Quran 2:154).



Today’s sermon was not originally planned to plumb the inner portals of the legendary patrimony of the icon of Arabic-Islamic scholarship in this part of the world, Shaykh Adam Abdullah al-Ilory, who departed this world in 1992. No. I had thought of exploring the present tense of contemporary Muslim life some of which call to question the known ideals of Islam. Of relevance to the latter is the on-going hideous face-off between Saudi Arabia and Qatar. I thought nothing speaks to the disconnect between Islam and Muslims of today than the collusion between the nation of Islam and the Other. I do not know how to make sense of a situation where support for Palestinians, the mainly-Arab-Muslim race without a state in the modern period, could become patronage of terrorism. Brethren, when support for those struggling to reclaim their national identities becomes acts of terror, it follows, ceteris paribus, that all supporters of such stateless subjectivities would become terror. Remember in diplomatic circles, the friend of my enemy is equally my enemy.

WOW, 100 Years Reached Already

Empiree, on page 8 of this thread there's a post of yours that was quoted from a previous page. The part in blue ink is what caught my attention.

Those stages, are they to be followed specifically in that order?

I'm reading through the thread again and it seems I wasn't following it initially. A lot of things I can't remember reading before

I have questions for you about your sheikh and some stories you didn't complete but in due time

No, doesn't have to be in order. I posted them as I remembered. They are just initial dhikr. Keep reading akhi

Rashduct4luv:
Why would i attack his personality? I heard everything he did was 75...just wanted to know if he had 75 wives. No crime na!

Alright. I hope you didn't misconstrue him for Sheikh Niyas(r). I thought he was the one who was 75, died in 1975 and had 75kids?

^

How relevant is this?. He was not the first not the last to have much more wives and children. So what's your point?. You trying to attack his personality?. Besides, you said you heard which means you are not even sure.

Former Saudi king Abdullah (r) said to have 30 wives and 35 children. Wasiu Ayinde according to some unconfirmed report has about 35children. KSA juju also got plenty. So I don't understand what you are trying to derive?. That shariah says maximum of 4 right?.

There is no limit on the amount of children you can have

Hkana:

I should probably go back to that thread and refresh my memory. A lot has happened since that time.

I'll follow. I'm all for any legit dua... That Aljabbar attracted me even though I had just heard of it for the first time in that thread. The Arabic spelling is beautiful.
Hopefully, I'll learn what it's used for, how to use it and if I can do it for myself by myself.

The thread shows up under this thread. Was created by tbaba1234. They thought i was just talking for talking sake. Now 3 yrs later bro Jamo90 didnt relent from seeking knowledge until he found out i was speaking the truth

Jamo90:
# I don't really blame them. I understand now. Everything in the world is turning upside down. The youths are being distracted and most of their souls have been chained. Believe me. How can someone talk about football from morning till evening? Immorality has taken over the world and most people are trapped.

Please don't let that dua go just like that. That would be a lamentable Tragedy!

It is so unfortunate. I am appalled at how nigerians talk about soccer clubs nowadays. Even Imams and shuyukh these days. Everything is upside down. Very sad thing. I will try one more time to retain it but it isn't possible by long distance.
