Sleekfingers:
Oga, most christians all over the world eat pork....... .
Muslims don't . The Jews don't
.
..the last time I checked. Jesus wasn't a Christian.

Is Catfish, eel, and other fish without scales crayfish and other crustaceans not forbidden in both Islam and Judaism? Why are many Nigerian Muslims not following it.
Muslims don't eat pork: true
Jews don't eat pork: true
Jesus did not eat pork: true

Question
Did Jesus command to eat pork? If not, who are christians trying to be like by eating pork?

In Islam:

Catfish, eel, and other fish without scales : permitted

crayfish and other crustaceans : generally permitted. Caution was only given by some scholars on account of some of them carrying diseases in which case they can be avoided because, even though the general rule is that what you catch or fish from the sea is permitted, the rule to not eat what is harmful then applies. But just how much harm can some of these other ones cause is not enough to raise an alarm, as people are known to consume them, in moderate quantities, for years without significant health risk, thereby making some of those restrictions watered down. They were never even classed 'forbidden' though. And of course there is, empirically, a room for this scholarly elucidation in Islam as well because the scholar who is able to torch-light the matter well will be rewarded more than the others.

Pork is haram and it is not kosher.
How is it permitted in christianity? Because sometimes I wonder if Jesus ate pork? Or is this something about christianity in Nigeria?

May we not go back to incessant price increases again due to the handling of the government refineries whose revivals have not been taken through the rigours of a year of operations and the associated challenges managed because as we all know government businesses are always poorly managed.

He is gonna be castrated in a nice little way, not bad though. But considering he's had an organ plucked out prior now due to hernia, a scary sight begins to unfold. I fear his vital organs are getting ripped off one at a time. How better to explain the phrase 'no peace for the wicked' in personification? What a slow painful way to die? Internally, you are getting sorted organ by organ. That will be living in a world of internal crises. No wonder he wants to take the whole world down with him as he kisses the dust and begins to bite it. Since he has refused to learn from those who came before him, he is only going to serve as a further example for the other tyrants that may want to follow in his footsteps until the true prophecies of the Truthful One, Muhammad (sall Allahu alaihi wa sallam) be fulfilled.

Foreign AffairsRe: Israeli Jets Penetrated Through Iraq Airspace — Iran by GreenCovering: 11:07pm On Oct 27, 2024
What I remember is that head of Israeli government remains in Tel Aviv and the last time that Trump tries to complete the move, something interesting happened immediately that claimed the lives of over 1m Americans and instantly sent Trump to the backgrounds of history. Now an ex convict, let him come back to complete it this time around. Perhaps something more interesting will happen again. Imho, it was a divine intervention.


LtChisom:
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - The United States opens its new embassy in Jerusalem on May 14, a move that has delighted Israel and infuriated Palestinians.
On Monday, road signs directing traffic there went up around the neighborhood where it will be situated, and next week's opening ceremony is timed to coincide with Israel's 70th anniversary.
The initiative was driven by President Donald Trump, after he broke last year with decades of U.S. policy by recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Trump said his administration has a peace proposal in the works, and recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of America's closest ally had "taken Jerusalem, the toughest part of the negotiation, off the table."
Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, celebrated Trump's decision, but the move upset the Arab world and Western allies.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas called it a "slap in the face" and said Washington could no longer be regarded as an honest broker in any peace talks with Israel.


Initially, a small interim embassy will operate from the building in southern Jerusalem that now houses U.S. consular operations, while a secure site is found to move the rest of the embassy operations from Tel Aviv.

WHY DID TRUMP RECOGNIZE JERUSALEM AS ISRAEL'S CAPITAL, AND ANNOUNCE THE EMBASSY WILL BE MOVED THERE?

There has long been pressure from pro-Israel politicians in Washington to move the embassy to Jerusalem, and Trump made it a signature promise of his 2016 election campaign.


The decision was popular with many conservative and evangelical Christians who voted for Trump and Vice President Mike Pence, many of whom support political recognition of Israel's claim to the city.
Trump acted under a 1995 law that requires the United States to move its embassy to Jerusalem, but to which other presidents since then - Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama - consistently signed waivers.

WHY DOES JERUSALEM PLAY SUCH AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE MIDDLE EAST CONFLICT?

Religion, politics and history.
Jerusalem has been fought over for millennia by its inhabitants, and by regional powers and invaders.
It is sacred to Judaism, Christianity and Islam, and each religion has sites of great significance there.
Israel's government regards Jerusalem as the eternal and indivisible capital of the country, although that is not recognized internationally. Palestinians feel equally strongly, saying that East Jerusalem must be the capital of a future Palestinian state.

The city even has different names. Jews call it Jerusalem, or Yerushalayim, and Arabs call it Al-Quds, which means "The Holy".
But the city’s significance goes further.

At the heart of the Old City is the hill known to Jews across the world as Har ha-Bayit, or Temple Mount, and to Muslims internationally as al-Haram al-Sharif, or The Noble Sanctuary. It was home to the Jewish temples of antiquity but all that remains of them above ground is a restraining wall for the foundations built by Herod the Great. Known as the Western Wall, this is a sacred place of prayer for Jews.

Within yards of the wall, and overlooking it, are two Muslim holy places, the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque, which was built in the 8th century. Muslims regard the site as the third holiest in Islam, after Mecca and Medina.

The city is also an important pilgrimage site for Christians, who revere it as the place where they believe that Jesus Christ preached, died and was resurrected.


WHAT IS THE CITY'S MODERN HISTORY AND STATUS?

In 1947, the United Nations General Assembly decided that the then British-ruled Palestine should be partitioned into an Arab state and a Jewish state. But it recognized that Jerusalem had special status and proposed international rule for the city, along with nearby Bethlehem, as a 'corpus separatum' to be administered by the United Nations.

That never happened. When British rule ended in 1948, Jordanian forces occupied the Old City and Arab East Jerusalem. Israel captured East Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Middle East war and annexed it.

In 1980 the Israeli parliament passed a law declaring the "complete and united" city of Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel. But the United Nations regards East Jerusalem as occupied, and the city's status as disputed until resolved by negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.

DOES ANY OTHER COUNTRY HAVE AN EMBASSY IN JERUSALEM?

In March Guatemala's president, Jimmy Morales, said that his country will move its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem on May 16, two days after the U.S. move.
Netanyahu said in April that "at least half a dozen" countries were now "seriously discussing" following the U.S. lead, but he did not identify them.

In December, 128 countries voted in a non-binding U.N. General Assembly resolution calling on the United States to drop its recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Nine voted against, 35 abstained and 21 did not cast a vote.


WHAT IS LIKELY TO HAPPEN NEXT? HAS JERUSALEM BEEN A FLASHPOINT BEFORE?


Since Trump's announcement there have been Palestinian protests and wider political tensions.
Arab leaders across the Middle East have warned the move could lead to turmoil and hamper U.S. efforts to restart long-stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

More than 40 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli troops in Gaza during a six-week border protest due to culminate on May 15, the day after the U.S. Embassy move and when Palestinians traditionally lament homes and land lost with Israel's creation.
Although the clashes have not been on the scale of the Palestinian intifadas of 1987-1993 and 2000-2005, violence has erupted before over matters of sovereignty and religion.

In 1969 an Australian Messianic Christian tried to burn down Al-Aqsa Mosque. He failed but caused damage, and prompted fury across the Arab world.

In 2000, the Israeli politician Ariel Sharon, then opposition leader, led a group of Israeli lawmakers onto the Temple Mount/al-Haram al-Sharif complex. A Palestinian protest escalated into the second intifada.

Deadly confrontations also took place in July after Israel installed metal detectors at the complex's entrance after Arab-Israeli gunmen killed two Israeli policemen there.

The proof is in the anecdotal evidences that were prophesied and that came to pass. You can choose to be the one who can throw the most tantrums on a public forum, it doesn't change the facts. But wise people will take heed and ignoramuses will be doomed.

ProphetMohemmad:
Where is the source of the information that mohamed ascended to heaven or didn't you notice the mad man was trying to imitate Jesus but his own was at night with no evidence.

That is what I am saying, mohamed wanted to attach himself to either christians or jews but was rejected, how can your allah not ascend him from mecca or medinna but it is from other people's land.

So it means it is the jews who were owners of the land?
So your allah knew that is where solomon built his temple but still wanted to cause problems by telling muslims to go there, anyway now,. The jews the original owners before these arabs came want them out na, these your mohammad's ascension, how come Mohammad didn't write any part of quoran?
The quoran wasn't even written in mecca or medina, so how can it be true, if mohamed was a drug abuser like opium, isn't schizophrenia that he called angel is talking to him, I read he was mentally deranged.

So it was the arabs that started dragging Jerusalem with the Jews first.
Foreign AffairsRe: Israeli Jets Penetrated Through Iraq Airspace — Iran by GreenCovering: 9:46pm On Oct 27, 2024
You seem to miss the important points because if you do, you will easily realise the irrelevance to your question. Relate with Islam from the point of how the Creator, God Almighty, connects His holy sites to certain elevated individuals. In Islam, we know that Jerusalem is sacred to the Jews because God Almighty ordered prophet Sulaiman (Solomon) to build the temple of worship on a designated holy site over there. We also know that Sulaiman is the son of Dawud (David) and they lived in the same place. So what are you really driving at asking that question?

Anyway, same place is claimed by christians as where crucifixion occurred. And same place was marked later for the ascension of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) by God Almighty. Now it is left to you to believe this or not. But remember that an unlettered man in Medina taught his companions all about this holy land and how it will fall to the Muslims and so it came to pass. God is never unjust but His Wrath always visits after learning the truth and then choosing to be defiant.

LtChisom:
So in 66 AD, where was these palestinians?
In your quoran, was king David not a Jew? Were was his palace situated?

Answer from your quran and hadith.

No references, just fiat claims.
Ok.

LtChisom:

KEEP DECEIVING YOURSELF!





He later changed his implication from Palestinians being descended from southern Europeans to being descended from Peninsular Arabians: "There's no connection between the ancient Philistines & the modern Palestinians, whose ancestors came from the Arabian Peninsula to the Land of Israel thousands of years later.










Most scholars agree that the Philistines were of Greek origin, and that they came from Crete and the rest of the Aegean Islands or, more generally, from the area of modern-day Greece.



The ancient and Biblical Philistines no longer exist today. After their land was conquered by the Neo-Babylonians, they assimilated into the culture of their conquerors and became extinct over time.



Without lies islam will die a natural death.
Foreign AffairsRe: Israeli Jets Penetrated Through Iraq Airspace — Iran by GreenCovering: 8:55pm On Oct 27, 2024
Because Jerusalem is also the site of ascension of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) to Heaven and back. It is so designated by God Almighty just as it was designated for Solomon to build a temple of worship there.

It has never been a solely Jewish people:

LtChisom:
My problem is how did jewish land all of a sudden became a holy land for Islam?
We all know those palestinians came there during that time, just like what the fulanis do, the arabs wanted to islamise Jerusalem, if it is not wickedness, why will mohamed be joining issues with land of Israel, during 66 AD, where are all these arabs they call palestinians now.

Saint99:
If Palestine had been in existence for too long before Israel, can you name one known king who ruled in Palestine? David, Solomon, and Saul to mention just a few reigned in Israel close to 3000 years ago, Jerusalem has been known as the city of David for ages.
Foreign AffairsRe: Israeli Jets Penetrated Through Iraq Airspace — Iran by GreenCovering: 8:11pm On Oct 27, 2024
The muslim conquest of Jerusalem (and the land of Palestine as a whole) was a (likely) divine alignment of prophecies in Islam and Christianity that was fulfilled by the Caliph Omar (radi Allahu anh). So not a single drop of blood was shed. The key to the Church of the holy sepulchre (according to the christians) was handed over to the Caliph and that remains with the muslims till today. At the time the Christian had expelled the Jews out of the Holy land so it was the Caliph who resettled the Jews back into the land thereby teaching the Christians that the land is holy to all three faiths: the church of the holy sepulchare, the temple of solomon, and the ascension to Heaven (and back) of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam).
