truthman2012:@bolded, despite simple and precise explanation given by someone earlier, you still got yourself confused. I can't help you. And I dont really bother much about you. Whatever I am post here from now on (even if i quote you or others), is only meant for educational purposes. You have difficulties with comprehension. |
truthman2012:Refer to reply to tru2god^ So, you know islam says the black stone was thrown down from 'heaven' to determine the location of Kaaba. Why then did you say Abraham knew the location when he first got to Mecca with Hagai and Ishmael, when the black stone has not been thrown? If he had known the exact location at that time, why the need for sending down the black stone again?Sometmes I wonder if you are what you claim you are(truthman aka intelligent man). Black Stone came down since beginning of time. Had always been there way before Abraham. |
true2god:Evidences abound in your Book. I am not even done with you yet. It seems to me that "House of God" mentioned throughout your old testament means nothing to you. And when you asked for 'single evidence' to proof that Jewish prophets like moses, Jesus, John, Elijah visited kabba, is tantamount to where is single evidence in the bible where Jesus says "I am God...worship me". |
true2god:Correct It is not a place dedicated to idol,Correct [s]like kabba, that is migrated to the worship of allahh (another arabian god). A house of God should not have any link to paganism such[/s]Rubbish! 1. Kissing a black stone.The black stone in Islam is NOT sacred! "Demolishing the Kaaba completely is much easier upon Allah Almighty than shedding the blood of a single Believing Muslim."` Prophet Muhammad (Allah's Blessings and Peace be upon him) The black stone was a meteorite that was sent down by Allah Almighty to Prophet Abraham and his son Ishmael, peace be upon both of them, to give the precise location of where the Kaaba was to be built by them. We believe that Prophets Abraham and Ishmael built the Kaaba. The black stone is placed in one of the corners of the Kaaba, and it serves as a starting and ending point for the Circumambulation (tawaaf) 7 times around the Kaaba, which is also 100% supported in the Bible's previous Scriptures. All of Islam's Rituals are 100% supported by the previous Scriptures. 2. Encircling a shrine, 7times, just as hindus do till date (hindus practice this before islam)What is the difference then between the hindu idols and the Kaba? The comparison is an unfair one because while the Muslims bow down to GOD Almighty and only to GOD Almighty in Worship, the hindus pray to and glorify their idols. They address them as "your divinity" and "your holiness". That's clearly idol worship! You must never confuse the House of GOD Almighty, where GOD and His Servants meet, with the man-made idols and statues. Allah Almighty Said: "For ye do worship idols besides God, and ye invent falsehood. The things that ye worship besides God have no power to give you sustenance: then seek ye sustenance from God, serve Him, and be grateful to Him: to Him will be your return. (The Noble Quran, 29:17)" "And he said: "For you, ye have taken (for worship) idols besides God, out of mutual love and regard between yourselves in this life; but on the Day of Judgment ye shall disown each other and curse each other: and your abode will be the Fire, and ye shall have none to help." (The Noble Quran, 29:25)" "And they set up (idols) as equal to God, to mislead (men) from the Path! Say: "Enjoy (your brief power)! But verily ye are making straightway for Hell!" (The Noble Quran, 14:30)" "Remember Abraham said: "O my Lord! make this city one of peace and security: and preserve me and my sons from worshipping idols. (The Noble Quran, 14:35)" The Muslims on the hand are not idol worshipers. And neither were the Bible's Prophets (including Jesus), peace be upon them, who prostrated to GOD Almighty. 3. Throwing a symbolic stone to a devil (is the devil resident in kabba?)The black stone is like the bricks and cement that make up the Kaaba. It is not holy at all and is not worshiped in any shape or form. The black stone is nothing but a Heavenly object (an asteroid) that GOD Almighty descended on earth to determine the exact location of where His House was going to be built by Abraham and his son Ishmael, peace be upon them. While Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him kissed the stone before, because it was chosen by Allah Almighty to descend on earth to determine the location of the Kaaba, but that still doesn't make it anything holy. It certainly makes it a remarkable and noticeable object that is worth visiting and seeing, but anyone who worships it is an idol worshiper! And like I said above, those ignorant and illiterate from the Muslims who go as far as rubbing themselves against the Kaaba and/or the stone to get "blessings" are not representing Islam's True picture at all. [s]All these are pre-islamic practices that were retained by mohammed.[/s]"Among His Sings are the Night and the Day, and the Sun and the Moon. Adore not the sun and the moon, but adore God, Who created them, if it is Him ye wish to serve. (The Noble Quran, 41:37)" |
GOD Almighty Chose that spot on earth to be the meeting place with Him. Since Allah Almighty ordered Abraham the father of Ishmael and Isaac peace be upon them to build the Kaaba, people called it the House of GOD Almighty, and it became the direction for us to bow down to Allah Almighty in worship: "Behold! We gave the site, To Abraham, of the (Sacred) House (i.e., the Kaaba), (Saying): 'Associate not anything (In worship) with Me; And sanctify My House For those who compass it round, Or stand up, Or bow, or prostrate themselves (Therein in prayer). And proclaim the Pilgrimage among men: they will come to thee on foot and (mounted) on every kind of camel, lean on account of journeys through deep and distant mountain highways; (The Noble Quran, 22:26-27)" So when Muslims prostrate to Allah Almighty, they prostrate in the direction that is as close as possible to Him. It was also prophesied in the Noble Quran that people from all over the world would come to the city of Mecca (where the Kaaba is located) for pilgrimage. During the early days of Islam, the Muslims were commanded to bow down to Allah Almighty in the direction of the Farthest Mosque (Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa) in Jerusalem, because it was the Holiest Mosque/Temple to worship Allah Almighty in back since it was not defiled with idols. Allah Almighty then commanded Prophet Muhammad to order the Muslims to prostrate to Allah Almighty in the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca, because it was the House of GOD Almighty which was built by Prophet Abraham peace be upon him (mentioned also in the Bible), and because after the Muslims liberated Mecca in a 10,000 men army (this event was prophesied in the Bible), they cleaned the Kaaba from all idols. |
truthman2012:Obviously, if you remove the mole from your eyes, you should know you have been answered. The truth is neither Abraham nor Ishmael built Kaaba. Abraham lived and died in Israel and same for Ishmael.The lengthy hadith is crystal clear AbrahamNow, you seem to claim love for Ismail here. But looking at judeo/christian records of hate toward Ismail (AS), it shows that many of you dont even consider him a legitimate child of Ibrahim and a messanger of God. You fellas are quiet inconsistent. Where they died is simply irrelevant. What's relevant is their mission on earth. Ayinde Barrister built is career in Nigeria but died in EU. Mrs Abiola built her career in Nigeria but died in US. So what's your point. [s]Allah did deliberately not give you the life and death of them to deceive you.Irrelevant |
channelz:Sir, do you have anything sensible to say than posting these nonsense all over NL?. You started off like a gentleman and now behaving like slowpoke. Get a life |
Ifeann:You dont get it, do you? I'd let this rest now. |
decisive:I even posted detailed hadith and I highlighted key parts, yet he doesnt get it. |
POPdecorator:Exactly. He doesnt make sense. And he called himself grandpa? smh |
truthman2012: true2god:You could read Bible a million times yet understood it not, Other may read the same bible once and grasp the message. Now let's begin. Bible talks about "House Of God" in many places in the Old Testament. You and other Christians probably see it as church but unfortunately, it isn't. Now read....... The House of GOD Almighty in the Noble Quran and the Bible: To help the Jewish and Christian readers understand the Islamic way of Worship better, I'd like to first present the following from the Bible: Genesis 28:16-18 16 When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he thought, "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it." 17 He was afraid and said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven." 18 Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it. Judges 20:18 18 The Israelites went up to Bethel (the House of GOD in Hebrew) and inquired of God. They said, "Who of us shall go first to fight against the Benjamites?" The LORD replied, "Judah shall go first." 1 Chronicles 6:47-49 47 the son of Mahli, the son of Mushi, the son of Merari, the son of Levi. 48 Their fellow Levites were assigned to all the other duties of the tabernacle, the house of God. 49 But Aaron and his descendants were the ones who presented offerings on the altar of burnt offering and on the altar of incense in connection with all that was done in the Most Holy Place, making atonement for Israel, in accordance with all that Moses the servant of God had commanded. "Behold! We gave the site, To Abraham, of the (Sacred) House (i.e., the Kaaba), (Saying): 'Associate not anything (In worship) with Me; And sanctify My House For those who compass it round, Or stand up, Or bow, or prostrate themselves (Therein in prayer). And proclaim the Pilgrimage among men: they will come to thee on foot and (mounted) on every kind of camel, lean on account of journeys through deep and distant mountain highways; (The Noble Quran, 22:26-27)" As we clearly see, the "House of GOD"Almighty is mentioned in both the Bible and the Noble Quran. The Prostration to GOD Almighty in either His House or in the direction of His House (if you live far away) is the most proper way of Worship according to both the Bible and the Noble Quran. As we also clearly see, the House of GOD Almighty was mentioned in the Bible first. The Kaba or Kaaba (the black cube building in Saudi Arabia) is basically the symbolic point on earth (His House) that GOD Almighty Chose to have all of His True Believers meet Him through bowing down their faces in humility down to the ground before Him. The actual bricks and cement that make up the Kaaba are not holy. They are no more holier than the bricks and cement that we see on regular basis in the towns that we live in. While it is true that many ignorant and illiterate Muslims might incline toward idol worship and do consider the actual Kaaba as a very sacred thing to a point where they would go as far as rubbing their bodies against it to get "blessings", but these people are not representing the True picture of Islam. If a person worships the Kaaba itself, then he/she becomes an idol worshiper: "Behold! We gave the site, To Abraham, of the (Sacred) House (i.e., the Kaaba), (Saying): 'Associate not anything (In worship) with Me; And sanctify My House For those who compass it round, Or stand up, Or bow, or prostrate themselves (Therein in prayer). And proclaim the Pilgrimage among men: they will come to thee on foot and (mounted) on every kind of camel, lean on account of journeys through deep and distant mountain highways; (The Noble Quran, 22:26-27)" "Say: 'O People of the Book (i.e., Jews and Christians)! Come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah.' If then they turn back, say ye: 'Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will).' (The Noble Quran, 3:64)" "God forgiveth not that partners should be set up with Him; but He forgiveth anything else, to whom He pleaseth; to set up partners with God is to devise a sin Most heinous indeed. (The Noble Quran, 4:48)" "Who can be better in religion than one who submits his whole self to God, does good, and follows the way of Abraham the true in Faith? For God did take Abraham for a friend. (The Noble Quran, 4:125)" The Kaaba is only the House of GOD Almighty and is the meeting place for us to meet the Almighty LORD by bowing down our faces in humility down to the ground before Him in that direction. |

Ifeann:You are indeed a lying madam. You just lied. You are a liar. Here is what you said earlier. Is their correlation between the two.(see below) Ifeann:And now you changed "discuss" to "quote". Sounds like you dont even understand my message earlier. Liar! I hail thee I need to start warning folks (both muslims and non-muslims) about you. You lied. You just lied. This is how you lie about Islam to hypnotize dump people. |
Ifeann:When are you going to have brain?. Did I talk about "discussion"?. Let me quote what I said The same way Atheists go to Bible directly and quote whatever they want from it. |
Ifeann:The same way Atheists go to Bible directly and quote whatever they want from it. And you Christians especially folks like you would say 'they dont understand how bible works'. Next time you replying someone with my moniker embedded, you better remove my moniker before i start trashing you again. |
truthman2012:Let me ask you this, what do you considered house of God according to you or your Bible?. |
true2god:The only response you should get at this time is:, 'You know that if you bought a China phone and tried to configure it for internet settings, you will receive a message saying "Your phone can't be configured over the air please visit the nearest (mobile network) office." Similarly your brain can't be configured on Nairaland you need a manual setting.' ![]() |
mystiqueDZ:That's bad but I dont think it's appropriate to beat them up. You all have a long way to go. |
true2god:The question is which Bible?. We know already your Bible has over 40 diff versions that contradict themselves and we have been talking about this months long. Whether you accepted it or not is not important to me Why didnt Moses, joshua, samuel, saul, david, solomon, joseph, Jesus or any Jewish prophet talked about it or visited it? Why will it start with Abraham and Ishmael, later became a place for 360 arabia idol and later revived by mohammed? So many question marks.These are questions for your Bible writers not me. [s]If there are non, it simply means that the kabba story is a fabrication by the arabs to give legitmacy to Islam by involving Abraham and ishmael in their constantly lying equation. It is a known fact that the arabs, till date, are the greatest lying race, so their information is never used as a reference anywhere in the whole world. You can hardly see a book written where arab authors or books are referenced.[/s]rubbish! It had been proven, by muslims, that many hadiths are fabricated, why must muslims still use hadith as a valid source of argument? If many hadiths are not authentic, fabricated or not reliable, can we say Islam is reliable? No. Because over 85% of islamic practices are from the hadith.It's not for you to tell me which ahadith are fabricated or not. You are not a muslim. Therefore, i can't take you serious. I got some Biblical related stories. I shall post them as time permits. And I am sure you gonna disagree anyways. You all so desperate to visit your holy pilgrimage but you got none. |
OLAADEGBU:...is when he lies, cheats, bombs muslim countries, allows homosick, walks around naked and says "faith is in the heart", evangelizes by lies, claims god is one with three heads, and many more. These are traits of a true christian. Sounds familiar? |
onojaduru:And you people want change yet you behave like animal?. Are airline staff responsible for fuel scarcity?. They are just workers for God's sake. Imagine this incident occurred in Arab country, you would call them barbaric, slaves and all sorts of names. You people are not ready for change. Govt need tough law and lock your behind in jail until you learn. Actually, in Western world, flights are cancelled as well for this same reason even though it's rare. But I dont think they go crazy like this. If you beat up a staff, you are simply guilty. I understand the frustration, conditions and all that but it doesn't give passengers a platform to beat up airline staff. Those involved should be locked up. They should simply protest peacefully against the airline and let the govt settlement their differences. |
@truthman2012, Let me tell you this, I have no time for your squabbles. First all, your op falls short narrating the whole story until after I did. Which means you have ulterior motives. Second, from nonsense questions you asked, the whole narration answered your questions. The narration is clear enough. Either you didn't read or you dont understand it. I can't help you unfortunately. Quran is clear on the issue. If your Bible doesnt have anything to say about the event, then, you dont have the right to tell us we are wrong. I am not going back to rephrase the whole thing over. As for why Moses, Jesus and others did not recognize Kaaba because it's not recorded in your Bible, that's your problem. If your Bible writers could expunged a whole chapter from the Bible, what else they can't do?. You are free to ask Bible authors what they did to it. Not me. Actually I think i need to post some Biblical references in this regard. Also, the hadith narration clearly said Abraham came back to look for his son Ismail. And at that time, Abraham was an old man. Ismail was a grown man and married. I even highlighted that part and still you asked me again. You sure have problem with comprehension or reading. I say, go back and read the whole thing but this time, read slowly with reading glasses on. |
lanrexlan:Walaikum Salam Waramatulah Wabarakatuh |
lanrexlan:Alhamudulilah, am good. You probably have 100 mentions, 200 likes, 1000 shares/share with me, 3000 followed topics, 3500 posts by people you followed ![]() Yea, She's trying to say she knows islam better than muslims themselves. Her profile alone raises red flag!. She's the latest bigot being dealt with at the moment. ifeann's case is simple one though. I actually slow down a little from her lately as Ramadan creeps in. She's definitely a bigot. She's now their leaders in christian section. All others line up behind her back. Note, you going to hear more of this from her "At-Taqqiyah". That's her national anthem when she's faced with biting truth |
lanrexlan:How you dey bro....long time. Oh, Ifeann, she's a professional bigot on nl. You will get to know her a lot more soon. Her brain is suspended btw heaven and earth |
Cair https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hkcCLwgCWA This pastor speaks simple truth http://www.ascertainthetruth.com/att/ Massive crowd in Sanaa protest Saudi strikes in Yemen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DD1XVfCrrYM @ vexdacool, I deliberately ignored your reply. Not for anything but because reality on the ground are so glaring. I definitely value Syrian victims of Assad. My point is Assad posed no threat to Islam, muslims and non-muslims. The crazy people (isis) that Santa Claus sponsored are now trashing Islamic values around the world. My question stands, what's Saudi's interest in bombing Yemen?. In months ahead from now, Israehell will be bombing Gaza. Saudi air-power will be no where to be found. They gonna gather around Kaaba screaming "Ya Allah! help us" when in fact they have solution in their hands. Is Yemen Oil and its govt more essential than the 3rd holiest site to Saudi? What is the point of bombing fellow Muslim country?. I really want to know It's only a matter of time before israel unleashes another barbaric attacks on those defenseless people. You would think Arab league have no weapons when that happens. They only flex their muscles on fellow muslims. What a joke! They need to live Yemen alone to solve its own internal problems. |
