See you... Shame no dey catch... After blaming the boy all your life... And failing to see he's one of our best players...

Comot for road abeg...

Jencejyde:
A reminder that when tactics and strategy fails, players need to take responsibility and channel a winning , never say die attitude to try and change the tide. A young man with this type of attitude is destined for greater things. He will still make mistakes but he needs this mentality consistently to take him far.

Losing should never be an option when you give your best consistently. Much appreciation to this young man for not being SCARED...

What f^cking business has that got to do with FRODD...who asked u all that?!

Swissh:
Holding not featuring against Frankfurt makes me believe he will start today. I think it might be at the expense of David Luiz rather than Sokratis.

Something like ;
Leno
AMN Sokratis Holding Kolasinac
Xhaka Guendouzi Ceballos
Özil
Aubameyang Pepe

I want one of Saka or Nelson starting and Pepe on the wings playing wide.

Swissh:
City seem to score the same type of goals every week. A cross and a tap in at the far post. Why dont teams defend against this?

AbuTwins:
Can we do hajj for the dead?
Can we repay missed fast for the dead?
Can we pay debt for the dead?
Can we do an act of good deed and send the blessings and reward for the dead?

Where can we find it in the Qur'an and Sunnah to recite a particular Surah for the dead?

Since the Prophet did not do it then let's leave it and do what he ordered us to do.

Below are the deeds that meet the dead:

1.Ongoing Charity.e.g. a waqf or endowment.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "When a person dies, all his deeds come to an end except three: sadaqah jaariyah (ongoing charity, e.g. a waqf or endowment), beneficial knowledge (which he has left behind), or a righteous child who will pray for him." (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, no 1376; he said this is a saheeh hasan hadeeth).

It says in Tuhfat al-Muhtaaj (7/72):

"The deceased can benefit from charity given on his behalf, which includes a waqf of a Mus-haf etc, or digging a well (borehole), or planting a tree, whether he does that during his lifetime or it is done by someone else on his behalf after his death."
This includes building mosque on behalf of the dead

2. A du'a made by a righteous son/daughter. This is by far the easiest and simplest way to increase the good deeds of our dead Muslims.

Prayers for forgiveness offered by both sons and daughters of the deceased bring great benefits, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "A man’s status will be raised in Paradise and he will ask, ‘How did I get here?’ He will be told, ‘By your son’s du’aa’s (prayers) for forgiveness for you." (Reported by Ibn Maajah, no 3660; see also Saheeh al-Jaami’, 1617)

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“and say: ‘My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was young’”

[al-Isra’ 17:24]

3. Beneficial knowledge which the dead left behind.

4. Other Charity done on behalf of the dead.

‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) reported that a man said to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): "My mother has passed away, and if she could have spoken, she would have given something in charity. Will she receive a reward if I give something on her behalf?" He said, "Yes." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath, 1388)

Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him and his father) reported that the mother of Sa’d ibn ‘Ubaadah (may Allaah be pleased with him and his father) died when he was away from her. He said: "O Messenger of Allaah, my mother has died and I am away from her. Will it benefit her anything if I give in charity on her behalf?" He said, "Yes." He said, "Then I ask you to be my witness that I am giving my garden al-Mikhraaf (so called because it bore so many dates) in charity on her behalf." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath, 2756)

Abu Hurayrah reported that a man said to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): "My father has died and left money behind. He did not make a wasiyyah (a will); will it expiate for his sins if I give some of it in charity on his behalf?" He said, "Yes." (Reported by al-Nisaa’i)

Sa’d ibn ‘Ubaadah said: "I said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, my mother has died. Should I give charity on her behalf?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ I asked, ‘What kind of charity is best?’ He said, ‘Providing water.’" (Reported by al-Nisaa’i)


5. Fulfilling the vows of the dead if it does not contradict Islam.

Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him and his father) reported that a woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: "My mother made a vow to perform Hajj but she died before she could do it. Can I perform Hajj on her behalf?" He said, "Yes, perform Hajj on her behalf. Don’t you think that if your mother owed a debt you would pay it off?" She said, "Yes." He said, "Then pay off what is owed to Allaah, for Allaah is more deserving of having vows fulfilled." (al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 7315)

6. Paying the debt of the dead. e.g. Ramadan fasts, money, e.t.c

‘Abdullaah ibn Buraydah reported that his father (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "While I was sitting with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), a woman came to him and said: ‘I gave my mother a slave-woman in charity, and now my mother has died.’ He said: ‘You have got your reward, and your right of inheritance has brought your gift back to you.’ She said, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, she still had one month to fast – can I fast it on her behalf?’ He said, ‘Fast it on her behalf.’ She said, ‘She never went to Hajj – can I perform Hajj on her behalf?’ He said, ‘Perform Hajj on her behalf.’" (Reported by Muslim, may Allaah have mercy on him, in his Saheeh, no. 1149)

7. Performing Hajj/Umrah on behalf of the dead.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to one who asked him about Hajj: “Don’t you think that if your mother had a debt, you would pay it off for her?” She said: “Yes.” He said: “A debt owed to Allaah is more deserving of being paid off.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6699; Muslim, 1148. However the one who is to do this must have first performed Hajj and ‘Umrah on his or her own behalf.

8. Alloting a share of the ('Eid al-adha) Sacrifice to one's dead.

Another thing that may benefit the deceased is if his relative devotes a share to him of a sacrifice he offers. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) offered a sacrifice, he said: "In the name of Allaah, O Allaah, on behalf of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad and the Umma of Muhammad" (reported by Muslim, no. 1967) – and the family of Muhammad and the Umma of Muhammad included both the living and the dead.

We should avoid bid'ia/innovations common around us which has no evidence from Qur'an and Sunnah! May Allah pardon and forgive the dead Muslims from the first Muslim till the last Aameen. May the peace and Blessings of Allah be on Muhammad , his family, companions and all those who follow his path till the day of ressurection. Aameen

Dreamswayne:
I honestly think we should look to sell Torreira or play him in his familiar role, which kind box to box the guy dey play?!



Emery is a clown, one win at frankfurt won't stop me from clamouring his sack after the season even if we still end up in top 4 but the performance remain abysmal...


Just like parading 11 strangers to play with each other, no structure... Confusion everywhere...

Jencejyde:
Emilio for me was the standout player. Now, this is not for the brilliance in saves but for TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. These are my thoughts and i may be wrong, but i do not think Emilio played to the managers instructions cos i still don't think Emery has suddenly stopped his playing out from the back philosophy. What i do think is that Emilio simply just said, "Bleep all this pass from the back, if you are wide open on the wings upfront , i will just send you the ball".

If that's the case then [b]shame on the "we were scared idiots called senior players" How can players not understand that there are times when what you planed in training is not working out during the game and you take it upon yourselves if indeed there are leadership qualities to change the plan, how hard is that[/up ? Not saying Emilio is now the next best thing but damn he simply just ignored everything in the managers book and played to his own strengths.

Still worried about our midfield compactness cos we were just way to easy to get by in that midfield . The manager has to take responsibility for this continuous occurrence

Dreamswayne:
Pepe has 2 assists...

BlueRayDick:
In as much as pepe isn't there yet as we want him to, I won't call him derogatory words just yet. I believe he's still struggling with the fact that decisions in the epl are to be taken in an instant without being given much space for showboating.

I believe if our midfield comes back alive with Xhaka spreading the ball up field and Luiz occasionally doing same, pepe should be beating his closest marker and getting into shooting positions.

BlueRayDick:
I don't know if this sounds right, but I wish Pepe could into such positions like Saka did yesterday and also shoot as calmly as the boy did. If u watch Saka's goal again you would see he was calm,didn't over hit the ball, but rather chose his angle and placed a curling ball into the corner of the net.

Also, in the buildup to the first goal he easily beat his man one on one and laid the ball in Willock's path without allowing the opposing player's press to get the better of him and lay a misplaced pass.

This is no way comparing the two of them or claiming Saka is superior ó, but I just feel if Pepe can get more comfortable without thinking of his price tag each time he gets the ball then he will hit the topmost form soonest.

Swissh:
Yes they will need to play two or three U-21s matches before both comes back. So not before the next international break.
Bellerin looked really fast in the training footage I watched. He Lost a couple kilos of muscle looking at the footage and pics.
Can't wait for mid October when bellerin and Tierney are fully fit, they will take us a level or two higher.

BlueRayDick:
Sod09 Ur guy Don dey hype himself o. Baba dey advertise o

Swissh:
People expect consistent first team level performances from these guys and it’s just unfair. Setting them up for failure.
Chambers was chucked in way too early and it damaged him in my opinion but he is coming back slowly.
They need to develop their games week in week out with no mountains of pressure. The talent we have in our academy is numerous.

Roland17:
No be today you begin hate Nelson The boy is not helping his cause but I still think it is too early to write him off.

Swissh:
Nelson is not overated. Let's celebrate Sakas great game without shittting on another of our young talent. I'm sure the competition will benefit them both, that LW spot is there for the taking. good for rotation and some non-PL or home games.
