Op please re-edit the post.

The earlier Muslims around the world stand up against the bad eggs among themselves tge better it is.

nah.

Not surprising.

A political conflict is playing out within the
walls of the Muslim community in
Southeast Texas. A man who was the leader
of Muslims in the area said Thursday the
conflict has resulted in his removal.
"Don't get me involved in any political
games in the name of religion. I am not
here a political man," Dr. Nidal Alsayyed
said. But it's political motivations he said
have forced him to resign as Imam.
Dr. Al Sayyed told KFDM News he was
forced to resign as religious director of the
Islamic Society of the Triplex after making
comments last Monday in which he agrees
with Donald Trump's statements that the
U.S. should temporarily stop accepting any
new Muslim immigrants into the country.
While the religious leader said he expected
the call to resign eventually, he said it was
sped up by politics.
"I think any future candidates,
presidents who do not support the fact
that we need to be more safe and more
cautious about whom to bring into this
country, whether a Muslim or not," Dr.
Alsayyed said.
His comments he said had nothing to do
with politics, but the former Imam said
Trump's comments are in line with the
Islamic religion.
"The text of the holy Qur'an says the
loss of one life is equivalent to killing the
whole mankind," he said.
His viewpoint, in part, shifting after
lingering questions about the backgrounds
of the couple responsible for the mass
shooting in San Bernardino.
"But the way it happens when you see
this mass shooting and you see some
people coming with such a very peaceful
background and all of the sudden the
intelligences themselves, the agencies
are not able to figure out what's
happening, why all of a sudden this guy
or this girl or that lady open fire and kill
15 people, because American Muslims
are not doing their job in the country.
So we need to stop, we need to stop
taking new ones until we fix the existing
situation," Dr. Alsayyed said.
The religious leader said there is a problem
with some American Muslims seeing a
conflict between following their religious
beliefs and their patriotism to the U.S., and
an issue differentiating the religious
community and its political role. He said the
two should not mix.
"I came to know this morning from
some close contacts and friends over
102 Imams, religious people in Houston,
were fired and forced to be basically
leave their jobs, leave their mosques
only because they did not get along with
the political agenda for their board
members," he said.
Dr. Alsayyed said he took the position to
help young people understand Islam, and
it's the youth where Islamic leaders should
focus their attention.
"Nobody is investing a dollar to basically
raise the understanding what does it
take for a Muslim to live in the United
States," he said.
KFDM News spoke with a board member of
the Islamic Society of the Triplex. He said
the board is deliberating and will issue an
official statement soon in response to the
comments from Dr. Alsayyed, but the
Islamic Society of the Triplex does take
issue with the statements made by the
former Imam.

One leg for shrine one leg for church classic interpretation of give unto cesar what is cesar's.....

according to the rumour circulating around, and I quote the rumour,»»»»»»> "after eating the heart of the late Emir" now he goes to church.

Leyelanre:
I give Seun credit for stopping threads supporting Biafra, you guys are just against national unity and that's pathetic.

I never said I support biafra. You have problem with comprehension? And also, I support the unity of this great country. I'm a Northerner dumbo. Product of a cursed seme.n.

ajogu1:
I have been a quiet observer in this forum until Seun banned freedom of speech; even though I had never been in support of Biafra or IPOB, that single action convinced me of what people have been saying about the West using their media arm for propaganda and blackmail. See how Sahara Reporters finished Oduah, and now on Ngozi and Diezani and see how they carefully avoided Tinubu and Amaechi. If they tell me Dasuki used arms money to campaign for PDP, where did APC get there own sponsorship? It actually looks to me the government is looking for everything thing to pin down Dasuki, several prior unfounded accusations about owning a pistol before the latest one.

My brother I didn't break any rule before they banned me for asking them to take a thread to the front page. Now i'm ready to break all rules. Mind you I don't fear Seun as you said, I only fear for seun, because he is fossilizing this forum. He's not a business man if not he would have looked at statistics that shows the highest members of Nairaland are from Anambra and be very sensitive how he treats them for business sake. Those politicians that paid him will abandon him once this forum becomes less relevant

I don't support biafra, but it is very wrong for seun to be banning people. We are responsible for what we put out here, he should stop banning people for God sake. .

This people are hypocrites.
Seun lalasticlala food is served.

Lalasticlala seun fp material.

They are gonna beat us anyway and Oliseh will be sack. Not forgetting we are not going to qualify for the Nation Cup.

My opinion you don't have to like it.

Quote me and remain poor for life. Don't underestimate the power of the tongue.

Does that means I'm inexperience? Since I never congo before?

I feel sorry for Nigerian youths, they believe almost everything they read. Smh in disgust

SeverusSnape:
Saraki can do just little to help Amaechi, The help he truly needs is in Wike's hands and also that of the three senators from Rivers State.

seriously, what's wrong with you?

He signed for QPR scoring 3 goals in 13 appearance and became Africa’s first qualified football coach.
