So, in your opinion, religion should be like a tap that can be turned on and off at your whim. If one isn't comfortable with paying tithes, he should just stop paying it? If a Christian isn't happy with the commandments in the Bible, he can afford to not follow them. According to your logic, that's common sense and it would be dumb for you not to do them.

Secondly, players have always played during Ramadan, so I don't know where this talk of how Ramadan inhibits playing. The players in question have not said they won't play but it's the coach that wants them to abandon their religious obligation because of a match.

Quick question:
If an employer insists a worker comes to work every Sunday when the worker wants to be in church to practise his religion, is it common sense for the worker to accept or unacceptable for the employer to demand such?
I dont really care. Anyone following religious books written by cavemen over 1700 years is stvpid. No apologies.

Since you have decided to publicly display your stupidity. Will you put off Christmas break for work in a government owned firm? Since it's the same service to your nation.
And who told you I observe Christmas, and even if I do, nothing stops from working on Christmas, or any public holiday, if I have a deadline to meet

Firstly, the players haven't said that they won't play the match because they're fasting. According to the article, the coach doesn't want them to fast on the match day. So, it's not a case of dereliction of duty. Secondly, the instances I listed aren't common sense; they're duly noted and recognized in Islam.
Thirdly, the match in question isn't a once in a lifetime match. Do you see a religious practice as a faucet that can be turned on and off? Islam isn't like that. You don't practise Islam on your own conditions. There are laws guiding the practice of the religion.
When clubs give players time off when they suffer a loss, does that mean that the player have failed the team when they need him most? These players are humans with emotions, passions, cultural and religious beliefs. If you expect them to abandon their beliefs and emotions because of you, isn't that selfish on your part?
You dont need Islam to tell you except you are really really dumb. These are common sense cases where its ideal to put off fasting.

Football is a highly physical sport and one needs to be in the best health status and well stored reserve of energy to achieve the best.

This shows you don't have an idea of what fasting in Ramadan or the practice of Islam entail. You seem to equate Ramadan fast to be a do-or-die affair. The practice of Islam shouldn't be herculean. As regards fasting, there are some people that are exempted from fasting. A sick person, a traveler, a menstruating woman etc are excused from fasting in Ramadan. They'll however repay the fast at the appropriate time.
Let me enlighten you a little bit. Do you know that pork is forbidden for a Muslim? But if there's famine and the only food available is pork, then a Muslim is obligated to eat that pork to stay alive. If he doesn't eat the pork at that time and he dies, he has committed a sin.
Fine. These examples shows that common sense should guide when to put off fasting. So apply same while playing an important once in a lifetime match for your country. Cameroon 2019 will never come again, why fail your country when they need you most?

Even if he goes against his religious belief and practice in the process?
If he was on the brink of death and needs to eat, wont he go against his religious belief?

I think the Muslim players that want to observe the fast should be excused from the national team till after Ramadan.
Ahmed Musa is an important player for now. He must be started at all means.

this isn't true. there are more men than women.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do We Have More Ladies In Churches Than Men? by excanny: 12:58pm On Jun 04, 2017
women are most religious than men, cos the society oppresses them so much, they turn to religion for succor.

Not that I'm quoting you for any long drama, but i want you to understand one thing. If someone who calls himself a Muslim, goes on a rampage killing people, that's him, that's not islam. He is not following the teachings of our Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). There is no place in the Holy Qur'an or hadith(saying, action or silent approval of the Holy Prophet Muhammad) that says killing innocent people in the name of jihad is allowed. That's just ridiculous. What I see is just some people with something seriously wrong with their brain killing innocent people. Just because they're Muslims (which I probably think they're not) doesn't mean what they did was according to the teachings of Islam.
Are saying there are no passages advocating violent assault in the Quran? You can't lie that out, its boldly written there.

There is nothing wrong with masturbation, stop misquoting the Bible. Masturbation is spiritual and connects you to your innner self as a Christian.

I hope you know Jesus was gay partner to John during his time.

Get someone to track her, watch for all signs and ensure you get credible proof shes cheating. That should be your focus, you can't make any wise decision without first resolving whether shes faithful to you or not.

Get to work and stop whinning like a little girl.
