It wasn't devilish. The foreigners studied how Africans worshipped and wrote in their 'holy' books that it was a crime to worship objects.

are u say the books were written specifically for Africans?,the bible for instance dates backs to almost 3 thousand years back

Obiagelli:
They had all those in Africa before the arrival external influence via religion

okay oh

Foool, The original bini was a land with some Yoruba from Oranmiyan, not you impostors, and Yoruba was the first oba of that land. You probably just found about wiki. So how did you tell your story before now? The whole world can't see what wasn't there, only now you inferior schizophrenic people are just trying to make up history for yourselves, you didn't have any.

dey go now

ycat:
Wikipedia is just what it is. You can go and kill yourself because I won't buy your fake story. Your forefathers came to Nigeria with white people as porters. Your heritage is that of a nobody. Useless people claiming empire. Not only empire na umbrella. You are looking for illiterate when your foremost teacher can read to save her life. You are a people colonised Yoruba.

oh I knew it,so one of those idiot claiming Benin as part of yoruba clan,you won't buy history fine, u are not the first to argue with wikipedia,but know what the Whole world will see Benin empire there why you be here singing I won't buy(who force you to buy)and for the very last time Bleep off my mentions

gender equality strange oh,chai property go just gbese like that

If you are tired, go and sleep.
Not all historians are legit, that's why they have to be corroborated and discoveries are analyzed by experts.
Your stories can't be corroborated within Nigeria, and don't make sense.
-

my "stories"are on Wikipedia which is far greater than ALL the source you know,why am I even talking to an inrelevant illiterate like you who claim to know more history than wikipedia,man Bleep off my mentions

nor mind them,park money go north tey go feed cow

(Why Mohammed was not the Comforter Promised by Jesus)?
Muslims have been told that Jesus predicted the coming of Mohammad. If one looks at the context of what Jesus
said, one can see that he meant someone else. Muslims are told that the Comforter to come that Jesus promised was Mohammad. Let us see what Jesus really
said.
Who is the ‪#‎ Comforter‬that Jesus promised?
Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Jhn 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost,
whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach
you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
Jhn 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will
send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth,
which proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me:
Jhn 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient
for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter
will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him
unto you.
Summary of this part:
1. the Comforter will abide with them “forever.”
Mohammad did not live then, and could not do this – be
with them. Now that he has come and gone, he is not
with anyone forever.
2. The Comforter is the Holy Ghost, not a man, who will
“teach all things.” No man knows “all things,” only God.
3. The Comforter is a Spirit of Truth. Mohammad was a
man, not a spirit.
4. Jesus had to leave so that the Comforter could come.
That implied he was coming soon after Jesus left. Also,
Jesus said that HE was sending the Comforter.
Mohammad never claimed that Jesus sent him.
–The disciples are to wait for the “promise” in Jerusalem.
Luk 24:49 And, behold, I [Jesus] send the promise of my
Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem,
until ye be endued with power from on high.
Luk 24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he
[Jesus] was parted from them, and carried up into
heaven.
Summary of this part:
1. The “coming” of the Comforter occurred in Jerusalem.
That is not where Mohammad was when he felt “called.”
2. The disciples were waiting and expecting the
Comforter in about 33 AD. They could not wait until the
500s AD for Mohammad, because they could not live
that long.
3. The promise would give them power.
When did the Comforter come?
Act 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come,
they were all with one accord in one place.
Act 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven
as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house
where they were sitting.
Act 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues
like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and
began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave
them utterance.
Summary of this part:
1. Jesus died at Passover. He appeared after his
resurrection 3 days later, and was with them about 30
days. He then ascended into heaven. Pentecost occurs
about 45 days after Passover.
2. The disciples were given the power of the Holy Ghost.
Mohammad, again, could not have come at this time,
and he gave no supernatural power to anyone.
The Promise of the Comforter was fulfilled 2000 years
ago when the Holy Ghost came to the disciples in
Jerusalem.

as you tey know say all this things happen, but make I nor lie using mohammed and comfort in na blunder that mass murderer?

chineke I rather remain in Nigeria

Get lost! You and who in rivalry? Ode!

Benin was NEVER an empire, and you know it. Wikipedia isn't authentic for history, anything can be written there. You people that are more tribalist are the first to play the same card. You were never a great people or world renowned and still ain't. Check, you couldn't colonise the the hamlets around your town, yet you call yourself what again?

abeg leave me I don tire na you know,meanwhile u don't one single PROOF,u are not even an HISTORIAN,and u say u have more authentic history than what again?

na so dem tell us oh wentin you say make we do,meanwhile big bang is a fact,materialist/naturalistic scientist are dumfolded so they brought this mitiverse that is said to magically breads universe,billions of them,neither can this be observe nor proven just some myth to avoid the inevitable conclusion of an intelligent designer,meanwhile am still waiting for something reasonable.

Wikipedia is not a reliable source. It generally
uses reliable secondary sources, which vet data
from primary sources. If the information on
another Wikipedia page (which you want to cite
as the source) has a primary or secondary
source, you should be able to cite that primary
or secondary source and eliminate the
middleman (or middlepage in this case). Always
be careful of what you read; it may not
consistently be reliable because work submitted
to Wikipedia can be edited, used, and
redistributed by anyone.

abeg make I come dey go,I reffered him to wikipedia because he won't believe Bini historians so I was hoping he would observe european travelers who encountered bini in the 15th century,but he wasn't even a knowledge seeker just a tribalist with emotional issues so I just free the guy,meanwhile the best way to know about this stuff is to visit Edo state just tour the different local governments around.from udo to esako u nor even need wikipedia seft.

ycat:
I say it as I see it, you are not up to that standard to hate. I don't like when cockroaches talk like an elephant. Benin was a tiny kingdom NEVER an empire. And what will I be touring in Edo when my town Ijebu Ode gets more tourist action than your whole state. You need to save yourself from shame and stop talking nonsense. What Benin has always been is exactly what you see when you look at it, the short man trying to talk big. If not allowing your lies to stick means hatred for you, the floor is yours. That Wikipedia that can be edited is your reference point is weak. You were never the story you tell about yourselves and still ain't,

abeg swerve,what are even saying seft,common history u dragging rivalry into it,mehnn tribalism for this country nor let una see road gerrahere mehn.u are saying Benin was never an empire?u have no proof whatsoever for your claims,now u don't even trust wikipedia?abeg I have better things to do

VirginFinder:
Let me break it down:

1. Yoruba language is to Binis what English is to Nigerians.

2. Agbada/Buba & Sokoto(Yoruba outfit) is to Binis what suit, shirt and trouser is to Nigerians.

3. Ifa/Ogboni(Yoruba religion) is to Binis what Christianity is Nigerians.

Got it?

Jesus Christ,wentin concern Bini man concern. agbada,IFA worship in Benin? my friend wake up,just travel to Benin city and stop saying rubbish,the deities in Benin tradictions are Ogun(iron god),oromila,ailala,do u know am a Bini person I have no clue on single sentence in Yoruba means,we Neva know our language finish na Yoruba we wan go learn,which kind inferiority complex dey worry you

klimson:
No! History won't be thought so that younger Igbo generations won't learn about Biafran war. History won't be thought so that the larger Nigerian population will be ignorant of the causes of the war and the perculiarities of ethnic groups in Nigeria that could have necessitated the war. The game is simple--leave as much ignorance as possible, so that younger Yoruba and Hausa generations will live on heresay and wonder just why the Igbo man wants a separate existence. Promote ignorance so that the Igbo man won't be seen as a freedom fighter he is, but a villain. But we are all paying the bitter price of ignorance. Tell me any country that has succeeded without a recourse to history. One day, we shall all wake up to the bitter reality. And then, we will curse our so-called leaders.

I think I have started cursing them

ycat:
You are just trying to cover your inferiority making yourselves feel good.
Benin wasn't the only city that fought with British, what you once had you is what you still have.

see guy I see u have hatred for the binis(which is really unnecessary)but just a little tourism to Edo will save your ignorance ,places like udo esako,etc still have a lot ancient infrastructures or if u can't come just do a wikepedia research on Benin empire interaction with the Europeans,that is if you are a knowledge seeker,it seems you are just making unnessecary noise our of hatred for Bini history?

ycat:
It's because the great wall of China was real and the Benin was built in their mouths. There are walls like the ones mind1 showed all over Nigeria today though beaten up but still standing.

Something a people never had can't magically appear just because they wish and believe their own lies.

see this one you are backward in history,there are countless traces of that wall in former Benin empire,even the Europeans testify to that,don't you know that Benin empire was destroyed by the British in 1897

mehnn horrible draw,which kind juju dey follow real madrid

tbaba1234:
Islam was through trade interactions with muslim traders not necessarily Arab.

okay I will like a link

tbaba1234:
I am from Edo too and i am muslim. The Benin kingdom extended past what we know as benin today.

woow rare to see a Bini Muslim am a bini too,how did it happen?(na joke oh),what am saying is I have no idea we had contact with the arab or islam most Muslims in Bini relocated from other states,perhaps a wikipedia link will do,but the Bini king during 1500AD had contact with purtugal and even sent his son there,that was the first contact with christainity to benin kingdom

Obiagelli:
Where is the peace today that they are all xtians and muslims

peace my dear is only found in developed countries where is employment for youth,sound education good amenities,places in the world where there is almost no excuse to commit a crime,places like Holland, Finland,Norway,usa,etc not really determine by the "opium of the people".

VirginFinder:
Ancient Bini people saw Yorubas as big brothers to be proud of.
It's the modern ones that are trying to rub shoulders unnecessarily.
What a shame!

There are Yoruba traces (dressing/language/religion) in core Benin.
But you can't find any trace of Benin in core Yorubaland.

Also, many Binis can relate to Yoruba language.

However, the larger majority of Yorubas dont even know what the Bini dialect sounds like.

Come on!!

whf are u saying do u know the bini tribe dates back way longer than the Yoruba's and who the hell told you they can relate to youruba,abeg wherever you are take the next bus to Edo state,the closest language related to edo language are esan language the difference is "e" for the binis and "I"for the esans,what the Bleep are even saying about dressing,really you a clown,bini dressing is like that of Igbo or let's urhobo,the religion aspect nor just go there at all,the binis get original juju

tbaba1234:
By the late 1700s, there was already Islam in Edo.

really whf am a Bini,I don't think I ever heard about Islam in our history in 1700,it was only christainiy back then in 1500s when we first contacted the poturgese

Obiagelli:
Well planned, peaceful and crime free.

All of these before the arrival of christianity and islam.

but it was the British that destroy Benin because of trade conflict back in 1897,please read your history well

phaamsaam:
A lot has been said about how poorly Real Madrid conducted themselves in Gran Canaria in spite of their 1-2 win against Las Palmas. Zidane made his thoughts clear after the match: “Like this, we’re going nowhere; I’m bothered and worried”.

There’s one image of Sunday’s game that sums up why Zizou is so concerned. In the 39th minute of the first half Gareth Bale shocked his own dugout when he tuned out from the game and instead concentrated on fixing what looked to be a problem with the elastic band holding his well-groomed bun aloft his head.

The Welshman spent 25 seconds fixing his hair and ambling slowly down the pitch, jogging 60 metres as the rest of his team-mates were transitioning into defence. Las Palmas were on the attack but he was too busy with his flowing locks to care.

very hopeless team
