MacDaddy01: lol.....good thread.....many non-muslims dont really hate islam, they now that majority of muslims are not terrorists but it is the silence of some muslims that annoy non-muslims. We non-muslims raise some issues against islam and what we get back are either silence or insults that we are islamophobic kaffirs.. A real Kaffir 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Why Not Ojukwu's Face On The N5000 Proposed Note? by ibnjarir(m): 8:59am On Aug 26, 2012 |
berem: whenever there is a war,there must be casualties.if u think he wasted life of biafrans we igbos don't see it that way. Ojukwu fought to liberate the sufferings of the igbos and we will ever be grateful for that.we don't need nigeria to honour him.we igbos will honour him cos he is a biafran hero.. After wasting so many lives he was not referred 2 as a terrorist rather a biafran hero(not national shall).May be the english definition of a terrorist has changed overnight. |

Politics / Re: Reasons Why ACN And CPC Alliance Will Fail by ibnjarir(m): 5:02pm On Aug 15, 2012 |
dedeike: I wouldnt want the alliance to fail. I want it to succeed so that the opposition can be strengthened. It's healthy for our democracy. But unfortunately, the merger of ACN and CPC is of no consequence. The last time I checked, ACN controlled only 6 states while CPC has only one.. ACN still the strongest of the opposition |

Islam for Muslims / Re: There Is No Compulsion To Islam - Sheik Dr Ahmad Abubakar Gumi by ibnjarir(m): 10:05am On Aug 14, 2012 |
[quote author=cjpanta]As I sat down to review the happenings in my country, Nigeria, one question kept creeping up in my subconscious...'Is Islam really a peaceful religion?' Am sure this particular question has at one point or another crossed the minds of many Nigerians and the global community at large. Many Muslims believe that Islam is a religion of peace, but daily occurrence the world over keeps pointing in the opposite direction. The question of how peaceful the religion has been has eluded a good number of us. In as much as I want to believe what the majority of muslims say, it is very difficult for one to completely rule out violence as part and parcel of the Islamic faith. If we take a stock of many current violent events in the world, 80% of it has a root in Islamic ideology. Currently, the Boko Haram bombings in my beloved country is rooted strongly in 'the attitude of non-tolerance of other religions' by islamic extremists. Though many muslims argue that those orchestrating the violence are not true muslims, it is hard for one to buy such ideas. Terrorism in many countries across the world are rooted in the teachings of islamic non-tolerance. The examples abound from Afghanistan to Palestine, from Somalia to Iran, from Chechnea to Pakistan. Most people who have been involved in terrorist plots and attacks have been muslims. The question arises 'if Islam was so peaceful, why are they always the ones involved in the business of Terror?' Why are they always the ones to easily be 'radicalised'? If there was no real teachings in the Islamic ideology supporting such non-tolerance, why do many muslims believe they need to fight for God? Honestly, I quite frankly believe that if there were no concrete teachings in the Islamic faith pointing towards such tendencies, ardents of the religion may be less likely to be cohered to believe 'they are doing God's work'. It will definitely be difficult to create extremists where such ideology is not rooted in any holy book or seen as a directive from God. Unfortunately, many parts of the Qur’an seem to support the attitude of non-tolerance of other religions. Jihad has always been a sore point in the islamic ideology. The fact that Islam teaches forceful conversion doesn't support the idea of tolerance and peaceful co-exsistence with non-adherents of the religion. Islam has never been able to decide whether it wants to live in peace with unbelievers, or to pile their severed, unbelieving heads into a giant pyramid. I’m sure many would disagree here, but they would be disagreeing with one of the most empirically verifiable facts in the universe. Think about it. One Muslim beheads an innocent woman to protest the war in Iraq, while another Muslim curses him for slaying the innocent. One group of Muslims flies an aircraft into a building, while another group condemns the attack. One Muslim detonates a bomb on a bus filled with passengers, while another Muslim says on the evening news, "Islam is a religion of peace." Each side quotes the Qur’an to support its actions. However, it may be even more important to note that each of them is following the example set by Muhammad. For one to understand why Islam is faced with such 'multiple personality' ideology, one has to understand the evolution of the religion and its prophet. When Muhammad was resident in Mecca, he was a peaceful personality, in all ramification a fine moral example. Unfortunately, d people around him never wanted such teachings, therefore they were hostile towards him. They mocked and persecuted him which lead to his leaving Mecca and going into exile in Medina. However, in Medina, as he was able to gather more followership and political clout, the whole ideology of peace vanished. Followers started raiding caravans, villages, towns to support the religion. What followed can only be describped as a reign of terror for those who refused to submit to Islam. Both men and women were slaughtered for writing satirical poems against Muhammad, and those who left the Islamic faith were exterminated ( (For more on Muhammad’s violent acts, see "Murdered By Muhammad.". These are just few examples of the violence that trailed the early world of Islam. Now, one would ask if Islam was a peaceful religion for thousands maimed during this period? Was Islam a religion of peace for the 600-900 Jewish men and boys whose heads were piled into trenches after they had surrendered? Was Islam a religion of peace for the woman who was stabbed to death in the midst of her five children? Was it a religion of peace for anyone who dared to speak out against Muhammad? No, it wasn’t. It is still not. When Muhammad finally had a band of dedicated followers who would obey his commands without question, Islam was no longer a religion of peace. Some of these acts have continued even till the 21st century by ardents of the Islamic Ideology. Riots and killings have continued at the slightest provocation. Verses abound in the Qur’an which supports violence ranging from religious intolerance (.....),domestic violence against women (Sura 4:34), amputation of criminals (Sura 5:38), harsh punishment for anyone that speaks against the prophet (Suras 3:186; 33:57; 33:59-61; and 9:61-63), encouraging armed conflict and martyrdom(Suras 44:51-56; 52:17-29; 55:46-78), wanton destruction of lives and property (Sura 33:25-26) (These verses can be checked up on www.quranbrowser.com ) As noted in the introduction to this article, most muslims would constantly assert that Islam is a religion of peace, but factually, Islam is no peaceful religion. True, it had peaceful moments, but not for very long. And since then, it has continued to have a 'multiple personality disorder' preaching peace on one hand and violence on the other.[/qute]. U want 2 knw more about a religion but u depend on works and essays written by enemies of that same religion(mudered by Muhammadetc).About those verses that u listed I will like u to go and seek knowledge about those verses frm the knowlegdeble ones amongst the muslim umma. not to go straight into the Qur'an and pick some verses without knowing those before or after or rather the essence(sababun nuzl) of the revealation of that(those) verse(s). 2 Likes |

chipmunkey: I was reading through Dangote's Wikipedia and it described him as a SELF MADE billionaire but from all we know, he has enjoyed a lot of Monopoly aided by lopsided government policies so to me, he is only a Government Made Billionaire and that is why he could afford to support Adams Oshiomhole with over 900 Million Naira.. Is there any self made billionaire in Nigeria? |
