Islam for Muslims / Re: The Shia Versus Sunni Debates Are Getting Very Ridiculous by hymen(f): 12:50am On Dec 31, 2011 |
What has the birth ,life and death of arabs got to do with descendants of Oduduwa? Why can't you people reason? Africans wake up. . .go back to your roots. |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Why Are Yoruba Muslims Peaceful by hymen(f): 12:38am On Dec 31, 2011 |
Lol ! @LagosShia trying hard to convince himself there are more Yoruba muslims than Christians You can lie to some people ,some times. . .but you can't lie to everyone all the time. In the absence of clear statistics you can't make any such assumptions . Back to the topic - Yoruba muslims are more reasonable ,not necessarily less prone to extremism because we (Yorubas) have a deep cultural heritage which trumps most (certainly not all )religious sentiments . Its high time we focus more on our heritage & leave these imported foreign and arab religions to the arabs (and african-americans who have no recent history/legacy of cultural norms & traditions). |
Islam for Muslims / Re: For Deols,sweetnect &co. What Islamic Scholars Says About Interfaith Marriage by hymen(f): 12:09am On Dec 31, 2011 |
I completely agree with the OP. Pre-islam patriarchial customs have somehow found their way into islam. If indeed ,men & women are equal in Islam,why would it be fine for men to marry non-muslims(people of the Book),but women cannot? Is God almighty some kind of confused bigot? This reasoning has no place in Islam & is borne out of male-dominated customs ,which see women as 'communal property',pure and simple ! You can decide to believe these arab customs if you like,no basis in Nigerian (Yoruba) culture . |

Islam for Muslims / Strange Reasons For Honour Killings In Turkey by hymen(f): 3:33pm On May 16, 2011 |
I honestly thought Turkey was one of the more liberal muslim countries,until I came across this : Some listed reasons for honour killing of a woman by a male family member include : [size=13pt]1. The woman getting herself r@ped 2. Eloping with a boyfriend to escape an arranged marriage. 3.www.Bianet.org cited the case of a man who last year killed his wife and daughters because he had a dream that they were taking off their clothes. 4.Women have also been killed for failing to feed animals or 5.For buying a new dress. 6. Some women have even been killed for speaking to foreigners 7.A few have been killed for calling a radio station to request a song. [/size] Sad indeed. |

Islam for Muslims / Re: Lagosboy : Forgiveness In Islam by hymen(f): 3:35pm On Apr 29, 2011 |
Sweetnecta:You are quite right. Very reasonable and balanced people like LB make me really take a second and much more favourable look at Islam. On the other hand,I sometimes think God is preparing him (LagosBoy) for His use to further the message of Jesus Christ. |
Politics / Re: North-south Dialogue. What Southerners Misunderstand by hymen(f): 7:29pm On Apr 27, 2011 |
Dede1:Well said Dede1 Back to my question - How does zoning guarantee dividends of democracy to the common man ? I'd rather the rampaging youths protests lack of infrastructure,jobs etc. Killing others because of a perceived loss of a presidential poll in nonsensical,immoral and satanic . |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Lagosboy : Forgiveness In Islam by hymen(f): 7:26pm On Apr 27, 2011 |
Hi LB, Very well said. You say it in the most pragmatic of ways without sentiments. Unfortunately a lot of muslims & christians never really understand the issues and just take sides blindly. Thanks for this. BTW,whats your reaction to Buhari and the unfolding drama by muslim youth in the North? |
Politics / Re: North-south Dialogue. What Southerners Misunderstand by hymen(f): 11:53pm On Apr 26, 2011 |
Abagworo: I guess the highlighted explains the typical mentality of a suicide bomber. He would 'have done worse' because an election was allegedly rigged. I wonder what you would do if someone r.aped your mother - Oloriburuku. Killing anyone can never solve rigging rather the people in the south (who ought to really wake up by now) will retaliate & finish abi na pinish all the mai suya ,mai nama ,mai doya & mai guard in Lagos & other southern cities & on it goes. Ask rwanda- killing people should not be an option = this in 2011 not 600 AD MAkkah duh ! |
Politics / Re: North-south Dialogue. What Southerners Misunderstand by hymen(f): 11:14pm On Apr 26, 2011 |
Akainzo:Nobody's saying zoning is 'bad'. The fact is that we have a structural problem in Nigeria. Lack of genuine federalism Corrupt monthly allocation system from FG Week or inept institutions e.g judiciary,police,intelligence etc. Poor infrastructure I'd rather Nigerians(north & south) focus on these rather than who becomes president or where he comes from. Like someone pointed out,why didn't people riot when Yar'Adua rigged Buhari out in 2007 ? No one section of Nigerioa has a monopoly of violence & people should learn to respect the sanctity of life. Is the burnt & vandalised CAC church part of PDP ? Or the women & children killed in Kaduna ? So trying to justify murder,is just like the armed robber using poverty as justification for stealing. Let the mullah & Imams make it clear that no one has the right to take another person's life FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER or we'll have another pakistan on our hands. |

I agree LB. Do you think Israel should be 'wiped of the face of the earth'? |
Politics / Re: North-south Dialogue. What Southerners Misunderstand by hymen(f): 10:00pm On Apr 26, 2011 |
Simple question for gadodo - HOW WILL A NORTHERN PRESIDENT BENEFIT YOU & OTHER MUSLIM NORTHERNERS PERSONALLY ? I think most Nigerians are tired of all these rotation nonesense. Give us light,water,healthcare etc. Stop this rubbish !! |
Religion / Re: The Face Of Jesus Appeared In The Sky In Somalia Feb 1st 1992 by hymen(f): 9:50pm On Apr 23, 2011 |
Joagbaje:Thank you for this link. Everyone is entitled to his/her own interpretation of scriptures. I think hypocrisy & 'finger pointing' has become the order of the day with christians nowadays. It reminds me of the comments of the Pharisees when Jesus was dining in the tax collector's house (Mark 2:15-16). May God continue to guide us. |

Islam for Muslims / Re: Lagosboy : Forgiveness In Islam by hymen(f): 2:37pm On Mar 31, 2011 |
azharuddin:Very interesting. Why wouldn't you let Allah judge a fight between a muslim & a non-muslim then ? How logical does it sound to you that a muslim by your own estimation is allowed to slaughter another muslim,but an 'unbeliever' is not. My dear ,don't ever think people will follow you because of Islam alone. Some take their religions more seriously than others. From our part of Nigeria(Yoruba) ,our tribe actually matters more than religion(for most people),thankfully. |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Lagosboy : Forgiveness In Islam by hymen(f): 7:09pm On Mar 30, 2011 |
azharuddin:Please advise : Indian muslim army general leads an operation that bombs pakistani muslim village ,who do the muslim Ummah support in this 'fight for the brotherhood and sisterhood'?? Hausa(a tribe in Nigeria) muslims regularly slaughter non-hausa muslims in Nigeria , who I pray Mr Protector of all muslims will you support ? Iraqi muslim shias & sunnis regularly have a go at each other ,where do you stand ? And finally Col Muammer Gaddafi (Libyan muslim) is currently killing his fellow libyan muslims, on whose side will your sincere love & care for the muslim brotherhood be? Summary - not all that glitters is gold,just as muslims killed muslims.christians,non-christians in 9/11 & it should not be taken as a 'war on islam', so also the complicated nature of conflicts around the world makes making it a 'muslim issue ' not only infantile ,but futile. On a final note palestinian sunni muslim group hamas killed fellow palestinian sunni muslims of Fatah a couple of years ago . |
Islam for Muslims / Re: Lagosboy : Forgiveness In Islam by hymen(f): 12:24pm On Mar 30, 2011 |
ifyalways:I think your point(in bold) is very important. Many muslims erroneously take the palestinian issue as a 'muslim issue'. Its clearly not. Its the same way christians have been deceived into believing the Israeli concerns are automatically 'christian concerns'. Or like my brother used to say ,anything the republican party in the US supports is a 'christian position'. The palestinian issue is an 'arab problem' and there are atheists,muslims,christians,druze and bahai palestinians. quite right majority are muslims,but if all muslims were to take every muslim problem personal,then they would have to be concerned with all conflicts and injustice in in the world,since there are muslims all over the world. The palestinians & israelis have been able to use their intractable disagreemnets to polarise the world. The palestinain doctor forgave the israelis : http://www.huffingtonpost.com/craig-and-marc-kielburger/palestinian-doctor-choose_b_549919.html |

zayhal:It means [b]G[/b]arbage [b]I[/b]n [b]G[/b]arbage [b]O[/b]ut. miftaudeen:Very good question. This was one of the reasons I brought this up,plase read the story of the palestinian doctor :Dr. Ezzeldeen Abu al-Aish whose 3 daughters were killed by the Israelis. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3657455,00.html While I appreciate the palestinian situation I think muslims need to be careful not to make it a religious cause. Its a complex ethno-political conundrum. Imagine if all the Church of England decided not to forgive all muslims because of 7-7 london bombings especially Nigerian muslims trying to gain residency/citizenship at the moment? |
