OP are you sure you are not patronizing customers for your dad?


Maybe is true because it is today that you join nairaland.

Nigerian Elders sabi lie, first they will tell you how dem suffer for school, how dem they sell fire wood, secondly they will tell you na first dem de take for class. I wonder who was the last person in the class.

Na only one man come tell me the truth he said him de carrylast, him de missed class,him they take weed when he dodge classes.

Guess what? the man is successful weed transporter now..

Abeg make them remain the lie for us small na, so that we will have something to tell our children as an excuse.

The fact that cannot be changed is that Nigerians have come to South Africa for the purpose of drug market only. Not all of course but majority are into peddling drugs. I see them everyday selling drugs to school boys. What happens is that, after these boys smoke drugs they go on rampage by killing, robbing and raping. This is the news that we wake up into everyday and when these young thugs are caught they confessed to have been under the influence of drugs acquired from Nigerians. When will these come to an end?

I am not a drug addict nor do I have anything to do with drugs, you should not think that I am in support of drug addict or drug dealers, but I want you to take things diplomaticaly you should not take the law in your hands, if your country doesn't want drug dealers they should do as president Trump does to mexico by restricting the mexicans from entering USA,

Your country should also restrict Nigerians from your country it will be much more better than all these killings. Or your country should set a law just like Indonesia, malaysia and Arab countries.

If you want to turn a blind eye on the crimes that your fellow brothers commit here in South Africa, I will suggest that you could be suffering a worm penetration in your brain. Your brothers are peddling drugs and some are even owning brothels with girls as young as 12. Yes, there are good Nigerians in South Africa but their number is few.

What a lame excuse, are you trying to tell me that all south Africans are saint? What happened to your police department? aren't they supposeto go for a patrol on those brothels?
citizens should not take the law in their hand, this is totally absurd.

You said that there are innocent Nigerians,why are you guys still killing them despite the fact you know that they are innocent ?

Ameen May Allah guide you.



Yeah I know the thread. There I promise to help you and I even create a special thread for you but you deed not respond.




And Qur'an has many answers to science. infact non of the Qur'anic verse that was proven wrong. I recommend you to listen 2 Quran in the light of science by Dr. Zakir Naik. Are you not in touch with your bro that you don't know his faith right now.



OK. Let me give you example:

Assuming you buy a new machine (any type) and you don't know how to operate it. What do you check? Manufacturers manual (A peace of book attached to the machine design by the producer with all necessary information regarding the machine)


So who is the creator of Man ? God
What's the manufacturers manual of a man? Quran

Qur'an has answers to all your questions. If you have a question don't hide it ask.

You should thank God because you have refused to be in the footstep of your brother.

Thanks I will try my best insha Allah

We must be careful not to make the same mistakes the uncivilised xenophobic South Africans are making. NOT ALL BLACK SOUTH AFRICANS ARE XENOPHOBIC! So, no blanket cover.
Secondly any Nigerian that have link to their main forums in South Africa should make it thread on it on nairaland. We need to take the social media war to their door steps.
Am really angry.

The south Africans are just tribal bigots and they cant help it.
The only way to show them our anger is to retaliate, not by shading of blood but in a diplomatic way and if they didn't adhere to our diplomatic approach then we can use the plan B.

And our government should show them our wrath.
Any xenophobia attack against a single Nigerain is an attack against all of us.

Everyone who hears the message of Islam in a sound and correct form (and rejects it), will have evidence against him. Whoever dies without having heard the message, then his case is in the hands of Allaah. Allaah knows best about His creation, and He will never treat anyone unfairly.

It is part of the justice of Allaah that He does not punish any people until He has first sent a warning to them and unless there is evidence against them. Allaah does not treat anybody unfairly. Allaah says:


17:15 ...And never would We punish until We sent a messenger.


Imaam Ahmad in his Musnad (16301) said: Allaah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) said: "Four will have proofs (in their favor) on the Day of Standing:

(1) A deaf man who could not hear anything;
(2) a fool (who could not understand anything);
(3) a feebly old man; and
(4) a man who died in the fatrah (the period between prophets).

As for the deaf man, then he will say: 'My Lord, Islaam came and I did not hear anything.' And as for the fool, then he will say, 'My Lord, Islaam came and the children were throwing dung at me.' And as for the feebly old man, then he will say, 'My Lord, Islaam came and I did not understand anything.' And as for the one who died in the fatrah (period between prophets), then he will say, 'My Lord, no messenger from you came to me.'

So He (Allaah) will take oaths from them that they will obey Him (in what He is about to request from them), so it (an order) will be sent to them: [b] 'Enter the Fire!' And verily by Him in whose Hand is my soul, if they entered it, it will be cool and soothing."



Basically: Its saying Allah will test their submission to HIM to telling them go to hell. Those who obey him will enter Paradise.

Masha Allah I am grateful, thank you. nagodai sosai May Allah reward you.

I have once created a thread about my family,and how I was raised by my parents without giving me proper knowledge in islam, and the must funniest part of it is my elder brother studied Geography he is not helping matter at all, infact I dont know whether he is an Athiest now, because he gave much emphasis on science and he believe so much in it.
as for my dad he doesn't care about my religion. so I am in a state of dilemma.
This is why I am little bit confused and I decided to ask you the above question.

I de come first

Wizeboy:
Marriage refers to the mutual relationship ordained by Allah for the believers as an act of worship between two people who love, trust, care, understand and respect each other for the sake of Allah; so as to attain jannah, procreate children, fulfill their sexual desires, unite and enjoy companionship forever with its continuation in paradise
in shaa Allah.

The Prophet (pbuh) said: “Three matters should not be delayed: prayer when its time comes, burial when the funeral has arrived, and the marriage of a single woman when a well-suited man has proposed.” [Tirmidhi]


Why should you delay marriages then?
The Prophet (pbuh) addressed the youths encouraging them to get married as soon as they are capable of shouldering the responsipility of marriage saying:
“O youth! Whoever amongst you is able to marry, let him marry, because it helps him keep his eyes away from lustful looks and preserve his chastity. And whoever is not able to marry, let him observe fasting, as it is a shield for him (i.e. protection from lapsing in fornication).” [Agreed Upon]

Early marriage doesn’t mean that the spouses could be not mature and responsible, the Qur’an hints saying:
“If you find them of sound judgement.” (An-Nisa': 6) That means puberty or marriageable age is not enough to be qualified for marriage. If a son is capable to run a household life and he is able to maitain mentally, psychologically and financially and everything of his wife, then early marriage is the only way to keep our children away from haram.

Marriage is a great tradition of the Prophet (SAW). Brothers and sisters in Islam, why are you still single? Are you not tired of having wet dreams and staring at the opposite (non-mahram) gender?

Is it financial issue? Money is not an enough excuse for you because some companions were almost penniless as at the time they married. Allah promises to enrich
married couples from his bounties. If unemployment is your excuse? Allah promises to make a way for you from sources that you couldn't have imagined.

Is it tribalism? Allah said He created us from a single pair of male and female and made us into nation and tribes so that we may know each other.

Is it your fear of heartbreak? [/b]The prophet said; what hit you couldn't have missed you and what missed you couldn't have hit you.

[b]Is it because you dislike early marriage and you want to graduate from school before marriage? Allah said: "Perhaps you dislike a thing but in reality it's good for you and perhaps you love a thing but In reality it's bad for you"

Is it because you want to have your own car/house first? The Prophet said: whoever trust Allah sincerely, Allah will provide for him just the way He provides for the birds who go out in the morning empty and return home satisfied.

Dear single brothers and sisters, what then is your excuse and why have you refused to marry? Don't you believe in the words of Allah and the sayings of the Prophet?

Trust in Allah and get married irrespective of your situation once you met the right brother/sister. Allah said: "Has the time not come for the believers that their hearts should be affected by the Qur'an and to embrace the truth which has been revealed" -(Surah hadeed:16)

Once a person reaches puberty, he naturally starts getting inclined to the other gender, because he/she has feelings and emotions running through the veins and hearts which has to be fulfilled either through the halal way or haram way.

Some people are born with high level of shahwa (sexual desire) while some have low hawa. This is why you see today in primary and secondary schools, small children now go to the bushes and uncompleted buildings to have haram fun (zina and its preliminaries). On valentines day, that's the day of zina especially in tertiary institutions.

If every family follows Qur'anic injunctions in conjunction with the sunnah of the Prophet and forms the habit of giving out their children or encourage their children to marry as soon as they are mature emotionally and a male child is financially buoyant, then many people will be married with their chastity intact.

Another thing that increases temptation in people is all these TV and western media we watch everyday. It's part of the agenda of the unbelievers to create a Godless society where people will now fornicate like chickens, that's why they entice through their movies with lots of
romantic scenes and this is what corrupts young minds today; may Allah protect us.

“Early marriage is recommended as long as the requirements of marriage are met including the ability of each of the spouses to fulfill his marital duties and protect his/her partner against temptation. The husband should also be able to shoulder the financial responsibilities at the sufficiency level. There is no specific age for marriage according to Shari`ah but the criterion is the capability of both spouses.”

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, is time to access yourself properly and marry that brother/sister you have found compatible in order to complete the other half of your deen and earn reward from Almighty Allah who prescribe marriage to all Muslim.


Maa Salam

Op I get so many problems,
1. I spend almost all of my years studying, I dont have any skill nor job I depend solemnly on my parents for my financial problem, now I am at my peak of graduation without a penny in my bank account, I dont even know whether I will get a job or not after my Nysc.
So tell me how will I marry in this situation?
you should nt even think that my dad will support me, he will not.

2) I am a shy type I dont talk to girls, apart from shyness I always think that girls can easily disgrace you in public without given much thought. So to avoid this I stayed away from girls totally, I always frown at them and this made them to be more scared of me.

3) I always have this mentality that I shall make money first before dating, because every girl likes gift and surprises.

4) I have ego, therefore my rapport with people is very very low.
I know is a bad thing in islam but I cant help it, I tried to control it once but I failed.

OK Let's break this down.

1 Sky + 6 Skies (7) => Kursiyyu => Water => Al'arsh (Throne) => And Allah is above the throne.




It is Allah who has created seven heavens and of the earth, the like of them. [His] command descends among them so you may know that Allah is over all things competent and that Allah has encompassed all things in knowledge. [Qur'an 65:12]


Now its established we have seven heavens or skies. Between the distance of one sky to another is five hundred years. Among these 7, only one heaven is visible to we Human and its the one we see stars in it.

Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars [Qur'an 37:6]


The other six skies are protected from us: We will have access to it during the day of resurrection: What was there is Paradise, Hell etc

O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass. You will not pass except by authority [from Allah ]. [Qur'an 55:33] [/b]





The Kursiyu [Chair - Footstool] is above the 7th sky and the distance between the 7th sky and the Kursiyu is 500 years.

.... His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. [Qur'an 2:255]




Above the Kursiyu is the water (The distance between the Kursiyu and the water is also 500 years).

The Ar'arsh (Throne) is above the water and Allah (SWT) is above (on top) the Al'arsh. And that's the end.


…and His Throne was over the Waters... [Hud 11:7]

And the heaven will split [open], for that Day it is infirm. And the angels are at its edges. And there will bear the Throne of your Lord above them, that Day, eight [of them]. That Day, you will be exhibited [for judgement]; not hidden among you is anything concealed. [Quran 69:16-17-18].


The Qur'an is not concerned with detailing the mechanism by which this happens - it is not a science book. It is concerned with telling us the higher reality behind the creation that we witness. Our science will explain a portion of the process - those mechanisms that are visible/observable to us in this material world.

The Qur'an points out to us the invisible realities which are the underlying substrata that drive the mechanisms of this world. The water, is perhaps then the ground of all being, all existence.



Menene sauran Tambayoyinka.

Alhamdulilah na gamsu, My second question is, lets assumed that I was born and brought up in a typical village ( a remote village where there is no access to social media or any social interaction) in any part of southern Nigeria, you know if I was born there my parents will be either pagans, or christains( due to missionaries invasion) This means I most definately follow either of the belief I stated above because I dont know any religion aside from it and I dont have means of interacting with people to enlight me. So my question is If I die with my belief as a pagan what is my case in the hereafter? thanks

Aslm my brothers and sisters in islam, I have a question, according to islam it is believe that there are 7 sky the 8th one is where Al'arsh is, I dont't know whether I get it right or not, I stand to be corrected.
I have seen it so many times in discovery channel and Nat geo the space is just a black space with just the solar system around it, and if move further there is nothing except old aged sun erupting like volcano, it is belief that the sun is there over billions of years according to NASA. I have so many things in my mind but I will stop here, my question is please I need more enlightenment to this controversies to clear my mind.

Thanks in anticipation.

‘’Mamman Daura is a powerful member of President Buhari’s kitchen cabinet. In fact, he is considered by most as the de facto Vice President of Nigeria.

Most critical decisions – such as the choice of Ministers and other important appointments - have been credited to him. He even lives in Aso Rock.

Mamman Daura is President Buhari’s nephew. His father is the elder brother of Buhari.

Mamman Daura has a son. His name is Kabir Daura. He is President Buhari’s Personal Assistant.

Abba Kyari is the Chief of Staff to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He also happens to be the foster child of - Yes. You guessed it - Mamman Daura.

Then there is Hadi Sirika.
Hadi Sirika is the Minister of State for Aviation. He is the son of Buhari's elder sister.

Hadi Sirika has an elder sister – a niece of Buhari. Her name is Amina Zakari.
Amina Zakari was INEC acting Chairman last year.

Then there is Aisha Abubakar. She wasn’t even a member of the APC. But all that didn’t matter. But today, she is the Minister of State for Trade, Industry and Investment. Her mother is Buhari’s sister.

So, friends, there you have it. And, thanks for your time.
