Hmm, so how "scientific" is the quranic explanation of the function of stars?

Quran 67: 5  And We have from of old adorned the lowest heaven (sky) with stars, and We have made stars missiles to drive away Satans

   


And how scientific is this?

Quran 31: 29 Seest thou not that Allah merges Night into Day and He merges Day into Night; That He has subjected the sun and moon (to His law), each running its course for a term (time) appointed.

Quran 21: 33 It is He who created The Night and Day, And the Sun and Moon; each of them Swim (float) along in its own course.


And is the earth flat?

Quran 15: 19 And the earth We have spread out like a carpet; set thereon Mountains firm and immovable;


And does the sun have a "resting place?

Quran 36: 38 And the sun runneth on unto[b] a resting place for him.[/b] That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

Answer a simple question in a simple way - not by shamelessly googling everything and asking us to go to the sites. Did I refer you to any websites when I listed the things I mentioned above?

Tell us in clear terms - what good has Islam brought to Nigeria?


And look at the links LOL

Islamic contributions to MEDIEVAL europe 

Islamic inventions in MUSLIM world

Islamic Golden Age?

What's all this mumbo jumbo? Tell us something we can see clearly and you can defend. Not what wiki says!

Not decayed? Is he alive in that grave that you people bow to when you go for hajj?

And who are his companions?

LOL, so the Suras I quoted are from the filthy quran and hadiths?


And who said this:

Q 9.123: "Fight the unbelievers around you and let them find harshness in you".

Q4:84 "Fight in Allah's Cause. Incite the believers to fight with you"

Q 2:216 "Jihad is ordained for you (Muslims), even if you dislike it".

Q 47:4 "Smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding them".

Q 8.12 "Smite infidels on their necks and every joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of their fingers and toes."

Don't pretend, you didn't see this. I need your comments


Little children, let no man deceive you, He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. (1 John 3:7-9)

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)


AND YOU MUST READ THIS.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. . . Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. (Romans 6:14-18)

I can as well ask you why you believe that the Bible was written under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

I believe that the Bible was written under the guidance of the Holy Spirit because it's clearly stated in the Scriptures. Where is your own belief stated? Papal laws?

Desist from Idolatry and demon worship in the name of "venerating" saints. All true Christians are saints according to the Bible!

A-town, you should be ashamed of yourself for not having any meaningful thing to say. I never said those things were made my animals. I said they were made by Christians!!!

And you couldn't answer my question - which of the notable inventions that you enjoy today was made by a muslim? Shouldn't that make you realise that Islam is all about violence and backwardness?


Olabowale, thank you. Even if they came because of "economy" they brought some benefits too. Which one did Islam bring other than Jihad and forced marriages?

Surprisingly, the Stubborn Northerners beat them hands down!

And are they not paying for it dearly and regretfully? Which part of Nigeria is the most backward intellectually and developmentally? Which part of Nigeria has the highest number of polio victims? Which part has the highest number of beggars and diseased people? Which part of Nigeria has the highest number of illiterate people? Which part of Nigeria has the highest number of religious fanatics and zombies? Which part has the highest number of child marriages? Is it the not the Northern part that refuses to allow Christianity? Compare the North with other parts that allowed Christianity. See how miserable and desolate they have been because of Islam!!! So sad!

He's waiting for allah's orders! Mumu incorporated!!!

Lord, what a backward religion and gullible followers!!!

CAMEL PEE - advocated by a "holy" prophet


I don die!!! 

Yeah, plenty


Muhammed killed an estimated 3,000 people, including beheading 700 Jews of the Banu Qurayza tribe in Medina, A.D. 627:

"The Jews surrendered and the apostle confined them in Medina. Then the apostle went out to the market and dug trenches in it. Then he sent for them and struck off their heads in those trenches as they were brought out to him in batches. , There were 600 or 700 in all, though some put the figure as high as 800 or 900. As they were being taken out in batches to the apostle they asked Ka'b what he thought would be done with them. He replied, 'Will you never understand? Don't you see that the summoner never stops and those who are taken away do not return? By Allah it is death!' This went on until the apostle made an end of them." (Sirat Rasul Allah)

* Jesus never owned slaves.
* Muhammad received a fifth of the prisoners taken in battle, including women. (Sura 8:41)

"Muhammad gave command and the heads of the two chiefs were severed from their bodies. The scene of torture and bloodshed was hardly ended when Muhammad sent Bilal to fetch the wife of Kinana. , He cast his mantle around her in token that she was to be his own." (Conquest of Khaybar, A.D. 628, Sirat Rasul Allah)

"The apostle occupied the Jewish forts taking prisoners as he went. Among these were Safiya, the wife of Kinana. The apostle chose Safiya for himself. The other prisoners were distributed among the Muslims." (Sirat Rasul Allah)

"Married women are forbidden unto you, except those whom your right hands possess (taken in battle.)" (Sura 4:24)

* Jesus never married.
* Muhammad had many wives.

"Anas said, 'The prophet used to visit all his wives in an hour round, during the day and night and they were 11 in number.' I asked Anas, 'Had the prophet the strength for it?' Anas replied, 'We used to say that the prophet was given the strength of 30 (men).'" (Hadith Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 1, Bk. 5, No. 268)

"Muhammad said: 'Woman can be married for religion, her fortune, or her beauty. So marry one for the religion.'" (Abu Issa al-Tarmidi, Sunan al-Tarmidi, Medina n.d., p.275, B: 4, H:1092)

"Prophet, we have made lawful to you the slave girls whom Allah has given you as booty." (Sura 33:50)

When Muhammad's behavior is reviewed, Muslim scholars point out that King David was also a prophet yet he killed people, owned slaves and had many wives.

The response is still that Jesus never killed anyone, never owned slaves and never married. David only wanted a small piece of land. There is no Bible command for Jews to subdue the world.

* Jesus never forced followers to continue believing. After Jesus made a difficult saying, "many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him. Then Jesus said to the twelve, 'Will ye also go away?' Then Simon Peter answered him, 'Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life.'" (John 6:31-69)
* Muhammad forced followers to continue believing, "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him." (Hadith al-Bukhari, Vol. 9, Bk. 84, No. 57)

Ahonohai are you married? I want to examine you

Ahonohai, run as fast as your legs can carry you. That's how muhammed "examined" Aisha. It's called "thighing". Run ooo before the unthinkable happens!!

@ Aremu

An unbeliever is someone who refuses to believe that a chronic womanizer and sex pervert who could marry a 6 year old at the age of 53 is from God

And still, you haven't answered my question: If you are a follower of Jesus, how did Jesus teach you to pray? Through guardian angels? Through Mary?

And you say you pray through saints because you believe they are in heaven. Are you God? Have you been to heaven?

Before your so-called saints died, were there not others that had gone to heaven before them (e.g Moses and Elisha)? Why didn't Jesus or any of the disciples pray using the names of these people? Who taught you to pray through saints? Where did you get your traditions from, if neither Christ nor the apostles practised what you're doing?

Don't pretend, you didn't see this. I need your comments

I want to believe that you have watched the DVD. If the secret was that great, you wouldn't still be here on Nairaland.

On a more serious note, we all can work together to make sure these forums are what they ought to be. Even though there's obvious partiality in the distribution of the forums (i.e Islam having a special forum while other religions are confined to the "religion" forum), we're satisfied. All that's left to be considered is what are these forums being used for? If there is a special forum for Muslims, why can't Abuzola, Javalove and co, concentrate on encouraging and edifying their fellow Muslims instead of crossing over to the religion forum to start offensive threads against Christians.

Yes, Christians sometimes do the same thing here but it's because NOBODY deemed it fit to caution Abuzola and his cohorts. Christians are naturally peace-loving people. But we cannot continue to watch you attack our religion without letting you know how it feels too. Our passiveness in Northern Nigeria makes your people kill and maim us at the slightest provocation. And we can't allow that to happen here. Stop attacking the Bible and Christianity, and we shall stop hijacking your section.

And the reason we hijack your threads sometimes is because the Moderators won't let us be. You post topics like "God Of the Bible Is A Peadophile" and Javalove started "Very Very Very Dirty Passages From The Bible" and nothing has been done to them. But the day I posted "Muhammed Was A Paedophile" it was quickly locked. Several other cases of bias have been observed. And since they won't let our threads stay, what do we do?

Why do most muslims have violent tendencies?

It's in their DNA


Everyday, this shameless Abuzola start senseless topics about Christians and Christianity, and nobody complains. Now, he's reporting others

I've asked you before. Did you ever read that Jesus kill anyone? No!

Did you ever read that muhammed killed? Haaa, ALWAYS!!!!

Camel pee!

You are clearly among those that block their minds and prefer to stay biased when reading things. You sound as if you don't believe we have guardian angels and as if it is not our guardian angel that carries our prayers to God. Well in Daniels, his prayers were intercepted by the prince of persia and did not reach God for three days. Mary in the Bible whom I believe is now in heaven was still on earth so why do you ask me such a question. We pray through saints simply because we believe that they are in heaven, and we also believe in the communion of the saints.

Now, you're beginning to display the trademark of most Catholics - ignorance of the Scriptures. First, Daniel's prayer was not intercepted by the prince of persia for three days. Daniel's prayer was heard by God the moment he said it. It was the answer that was intercepted for 20 days. Here is the reference:

Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days. (Daniel 10:12-14).

And still, you didn't answer my question: If you are a follower of Jesus, how did Jesus teach you to pray? Through guardian angels? Through Mary?

And you say you pray through saints because you believe they are in heaven. Are you God? Have you been to heaven?

Before your so-called saints died, were there not others that had gone to heaven before them (e.g Moses and Elisha)? Why didn't Jesus or any of the disciples pray using the names of these people? Who taught you to pray through saints? Where did you get your traditions from, if neither Christ nor the apostles practised what you're doing?

Something's definitely blinding you if you cannot even see what I wrote. If you want to argue contradict me. Even peter did not use a Bible. The Bible was written years after he had died, mind you. And I clearly stated why we have statues. WE DO NOT WORSHIP STATUES!

You should be ashamed of yourself for saying this. So what is the "epistle" or "scripture" being referred to in these places?

"And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;  As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction." (2 Peter 3:15,16).

"For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:3; 4).


And what do you do with statues? Did Christ whom you claim to be following use statues in worship?

Thanks for reminding me of this one.
Tell me where the righteous people who died before heaven was opened were staying. They stayed in their tombs because it was not written in the Bible?? The catholic church also has a word for that, "Limbo". It is beleived that's were Christ said He was going after He died and went to release them,

Oh they stayed in their tombs? So how about those who had no tombs? Where did Moses stay? Where did Enoch stay? Where did Elijah stay?

Likewise in the Bible both in Romans 2:6 It was also said that "God will render each one according to His works. Since we believe that anyone condemned to hell is eternally condemneed to hell, and anyone has a little stain of sin cannot enter the kingdom of heaven and that God will render everyone according to his works. We believe that one who dies with a venial sin such as anger, hatred, impure thoughts,  e.t.c., which are called venial because man is prone to them will not go to hell, but to a place where he will be purified before entering heaven. This place were the person suffers is where we call purgatory - "to purge".

I can't help laughing at the absurdity of this hocus pocus And it shows that most of your doctrines are not Bible-based. Where did you get the teaching from the Bible that some sinners will not go to hell. You're basing you beliefs on self-gratifying logic. Who are you to decide which sin man is prone to or not prone to? Man is prone to ALL sins? And Jesus blood is available to purify and deliver you from all sins if you surrender your life to him. If you keep deluding yourselves with your way of reasoning, and continue sinning because you believe there's a second chance after death, the result will be catastrophic. Here is the proof:

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
(Hebrews 10:26-29).

Little children, let no man deceive you, He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. (1 John 3:7-9)

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)


AND YOU MUST READ THIS.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. . . Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. (Romans 6:14-18)

So you have no biblical basis to justify sinning with the hope of a phantom purgatory. Jesus came to free us from the power of sin, so we can live righteously. But if we continue sinning, for whatever reasons, the consequence has already been mentioned in the first reference above. That's why it's not just enough to be going to church, be babtised in water or be confessing sin every weekend. You need Jesus in your life to transform you and make you a new creature. (I Corinthians 5:17)

It started after someone believed to have been in purgatory got a trance from a dead person saying: They should continue praying for him, that he has been suffering

LOL. . . a major doctrine of a church started with someone's trance?  

Whose trance? Is this in the Bible?

Someone first mentioned this to me but I found it incredible!

Muhammad actually ordered his followers to drink camel pee??

That's news to me! I looked up the hadith to verify what it actually says. And guess what? See it for yourself: here's the  full hadiths:

    Narrated Abu Qilabah:

Anas said, “Some people of Ukl came to Medina and its climate did not suit them. So the Prophet ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) camels and to drink their milk and urine (as a medicine),

Hmmmm interesting…. Muhammad ordered a tribe to drink camel milk-n-pee smoothie as remedy to cure their aversion to dryness?


The hadith continues, "So they went as directed and after they became healthy, they killed the shepherd of the Prophet and drove away with all the camels."

‘Hahahahah… good riddance to cleaver thinkers!’ The pee-drinkers turned into pee-zombies and killed a guy. Then they chased away the camels, which is dumb, considering that’s where their “medication” is coming from Now how did the good prophet react to all of this? With vengeance, of course!

", The news reached Muhammad early in the morning and he sent his men (sahibahs) in their hot pursuit and they were captured and brought at noon. Muhammad then ordered to cut off their hands and feet (and it was done), and as well their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron rods. They were put in ‘Al-Harrah’ and when they asked for water; no water was given to them”, till they died of extreme thirst!!!

Did you catch all of that? One more time, in bulleted form:

    • Mojo had the tribe captured.

    • Mojo had their hands and feet cut off.

    • Mojo branded their eyes with hot iron rods.

    • Mojo dumped them in Al-Harrah (a large volcanic field near the Jordanian border)…

    • Thirst… with no water! So they can’t even make more piss to drink.

Wow! Just wow!!! And in case you’re thinking maybe Muhammad wasn’t such a nice guy after all, the hadith ends with some good old-fashioned enabling:

    Abu Qilabah said, “Those people committed theft and murder, became infidels after embracing Islam and fought against Allah and His Apostle.”

It’s never Muhammad’s fault when he has to torture and murder someone. He always has a justification: it’s their fault, it’s always their fault!

Yet he never used a sword nor allowed his followers to use it?

Can't you see how foolish you are?

How many people did Muhammed kill with the sword? Thousands! Did Jesus kill any? No!

Even the Saudi Arabian flag has a sword on it as a sign of destruction and bloodshed. Shame on you all

The issue is not even about analysis. The issue is why should this be in a HOLY book?

Quran 9.123: "Fight the unbelievers around you and let them find harshness in you".

Quran 47:4 "Smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding them". Shocked Shocked

Quran 8.12 "Smite infidels on their necks and every joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of their fingers and toes." Shocked Shocked Shocked

Quran 4:84 "Fight in Allah's Cause. Incite the believers to fight with you"

Quran 2:216 "Jihad is ordained for you (Muslims), even if you dislike it".


And instead of asking yourselves that question, you start silly threads about other people. SHAMELESS HYPOCRITES!

What's there to analyse? The verses are straight-forward. KILL. BEHEAD. CUT OFF THE FINGERS AND TOES of people who don't accept Islam. What else is there to explain? Isn't that why religious crisis - burning, killing and looting - in Nigeria is ALWAYS in Islamic States?

And how are we sure you're not quoting from the quran? Doesn't the quran contain curses and obscenities? Or do you want me to shame you now with some of the disturbing verses you use as incantations in the quran to make people run mad and experience other calamities?

So, when Christ taught you about prayer, he said you should pray using the rosary or through Mary or "guardian angels"?

When the disciples gathered in the Upper Room to receive the Holy Ghost, Mary the mother of Jesus was among them, was she using her name to pray and were the apostles praying through her?

If you claim to be followers of Christ, can you show me anywhere in the Bible where Jesus or any his disciples (including Peter whom you call the first "pope" used graven images in worship?


Friend, you do many things that contradict the Bible. And that's why we don't see you as CHRISTians - because most of the things you do are not from the teachings of Christ or his disciples. Even the doctrine of purgatory is baseless. In the passage you often quote to justify it, the Scripture only mentions people who were disobedient at the time of Noah. It doesn't mention those who existed before then or after it. It never says anyone will go to purgatory; yet you continue to deceive your congregation with it. May God have mercy on you all 

Just like the every other muslim fanatic, the stench of your hypocrisy follows you wherever you go. You want the whole world to believe that the Bible if full of filth, yet you spew out more absurdities, vulgarities and profanities than any other person on this forum. Now we know how "clean" the quran is. Shame on you!

It's you we should be asking that question. You said it's obvious we have varying opinions, and the OP is simply expressing his! So WHAT'S THE FUSS?

Well, since he didn't two-time or jilt her; and since he didn't know he was dating her sister until recently, I think he deserves a fair hearing. He shouldn't allow the older sister to subject him to emotional blackmail. Since he's innocent, he should allow her to say whatever she wants if she feels she must. If the younger sister truly loves him as he claims, she'll give him a chance to explain himself, and thereafter decide what's good for her
