Abu Zola:
H20- There are conditions for stoning adulterer.
you cannot stone adulterer where there is no sharia law.
You have to report the accused to the sharia court.
You have to present witnesses.
As for hijab there are two conditions,
the following are exempted from wearing hijab
An immature girl.
The opposite intimacy i.e man. Once you are a mature woman it is incumbent to wear hijab

Catholic nun's use a kind of hijab/covering.
Hijab has actually been in place and practiced by Judeo-Christian women centuries earlier.

I wonder why folks associate it solely with Islam

Barka Jumah.

The presidential candidate of Congress for Progressive Change, General Mohammadu Burhari (retd) yesterday stormed Onitsha, the nerve centre of Anambra State, and pledged to transform Nigeria into an ideal one where life will be more meaningful for the masses.
Buhari, whose convoy arrived the Old Trinity venue of his campaign, did not waste any second before mounting the rostrum to deliver his short but power-packed message in which he promised to improve on the general infrastructure.

He said he would make the nation’s power industry to return to full capacity and cover the whole country .
The CPC presidential candidate said all those who would be elected on the platform of the party would be fully accountable to the people.
According to him, the nation’s infrastructure was presently in a deplorable condition and would be transformed as soon as he assumed office as president.

He also promised of adequate security for the citizenry as against the present state of insecurity in the nation.
Buhari said the CPC government at the centre would ensure that members of the armed forces would be made to operate at full capacity and be provided with the facilities to protect life and property of Nigerians.
On roads, the CPC presidential flag bearer said his government would provide rural roads as part of the effort to bring down the cost of transportation and food supply.

He seized the opportunity to introduce some of the candidates of the party in the state.
Those presented to the people included Professor Nonso Majekwu, who is contesting the Senatorial seat for Anambra South Senatorial Zone, Chief Emma Nweke, for Anambra Central and Chief Chuka Modebe for the House of Representatives .

WHAT I WANT TO INSERT HERE IF THIS ARE ALL WHAT BUHARI SAID IN ANAMBRA,

Been a state where your party looked down on he would have addressed the issue once and for all.

CPC CHAIRMAN SOUTH SOUTH

presidential candidate of Congress for Progressive Change, General Mohammadu Burhari NORTH

RUNNING MATE: SOUTH WEST.

what happen to south East ?

if Buhari is a good politician he would have address the issue and woe some little vote for himself.

i am sure Achebe and Onitsha people will laugh him after the meeting this man no nothing about democratic campaign .

My last message to him this:Buharia your campaign to your base biko.

Not true.
I don't know how or when he did it but a greater percentage of the populace esp indigenes are voting for him.

Sorry, dont know why but when i copy FB pictures they are small sized

WOW.
I heard the sitting PDP governor forbade opposition parties from any form of campaign there.Elechi of ANPP could not campaign till he cried out to GEJ.strange Politics,Naija.

Thanks,i have seen the pictures at the Integrity Vanguard page.

True oo.
Last I heard of him was during the (ex)wife saga.

No rally in the east?
Saw the Onitsha rally thread,no pictures or anything.

semid4lyfe:
Ify, I'll be going offline for some days

Hope you'll care enough to ask about me

Haha.
Give ur address to Odunnu when she calls,I wan come ya crib.

Na wao.

^^So what?
What should he do?Leave his campaign and take up Jega's  job ?busybody right?
How are we even sure that the so-called under-aged are all voting for him?

You did not provide an answer and I'd ask again:what do u want Buhari to do now?Seize the voters card/rights of folks that were duly registered and certified fit to vote under the watchful eyes of your CIC GEJ  or 

Take your concerns to the right quarters,biko.

You are high on goodluck biscuit .

agabaI23:
Thank you for that answer. At this point I will refer you to blinx4real's post.
Now what I am asking for from Buhari is to condemn what has been linked to his home town.
I did not ask him to arrest anybody. Read my post again.
You want GEJ enforce the law against underage voting when an Independent NEC is there, in his opponents home state? You all will be up in arms. he is has disfranchised voters in his home state. he has empowered INEC and the police to work.

Again I just asked that he opens his mouth to condemn it.

Topic says:  Buhari[b] Keeps mum On Underage Voters[/b]
I did not say Buhari has done nothing . . . .

How sure are u abt that?You been following his campaign train?

Besides,why shld he bother his head over the inefficiencies in our system?Is that part of his responsibilities as an aspirant?

I want to assume that GEJ or anyone else has openly condemned it but what has he done Its one thing to make noise,its another to act.

Is Buhari the Only Presidential candidate?Have others done or said anything on this issue?

Whats the duty of Inec?Who registered those so-called under-aged voters?

I don't get the Buhari connection here  

Lagosboy:
She said we should not shed tears for her but I cant hold it. This is a problem within our ummah and I pray we resolve it, many white girls face this kind of problems in the UK as well. I dont want to sound chauvinist but honestly this problem is great among our muslim sisters, some dont have patience to help, some aisans or even arabs look down on blacks, some blacks hadcore "salafi" castigate others , some of our hausa bros think the yoruba muslims are less muslims and we could go on and on.

Many revert sisters cant find husbands as some born muslim will not marry them, they are rejected by their community and then rejected by their fellow muslims. Little wonder why reverts have formed various groups and marrying reverts like themselves to feel more comfortable.

May the good Lord strengthen the faith of this sister and reward her in this life and in the hereafter.

Ify is it you or another Ify this sister has found solace in?

You should Know.

I love this thread.

tbaba1234:
By Miriam, a graduate student in Philadelphia

You may see me in the crowd in my community saying, “kedu” (hello) or chanting “eh” after “Igbo Kwenu” (“Igbo speak”). On the outside, I am your typical Igbo-American girl. However there is nothing typical about me – I am Igbo and a Muslimah (gasp!). Shock to you? Perhaps not, but to many in my community it is. Many Igbos and even Nigerians claim that “there are no Igbo Muslims.” Well, sorry to break it to you, but I am living proof that I am full Igbo and a practicing Muslim. When I tell Igbos that I am a Muslim, I frequently hear “tifaqua” (God forbid!). I am not married to a Muslim (a common thought among many), nor was I tricked into the faith by a fellow Muslim. I converted (Alhamduillah) because I felt like this was the right path for me – to convert to another faith- the same convictions that drove my forefathers before me to convert to Christianity. Others may claim that “Islam is not compatible with Igbo culture,” yet I challenge them to prove that Christianity is more compatible to our heritage than our traditional indigenous beliefs that preceded it for thousands of years. What many fail to realize is that we are a product of our environment. If Buddhists took control of Igbo land, we would most likely be Buddhist and still strong in that faith and conviction. My challenge for everyone reading is to analyze why you believe what you believe – and to respect and agree to disagree with others who may differ.

To be a Muslim in my community is difficult – not impossible, but challenging. Many of our practices, cultures and beliefs rest heavily on Christianity, even though Christianity arose among the Igbos in the 1900s. In fact, my great grandfathers were not Christian. How do I come to terms with cultural beliefs such as reincarnation? This belief is ingrained in my people. Even my grandfather, a Christian, believes in reincarnation – even though it goes against the principles of Christianity. Are masquerades (symbolizing the dead) halal? Is breaking the kola nut (see a kola nut ceremony) a preservation of my rich culture or an abomination in the eyes of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta ala)? How can I find a happy medium yet preserve my identity as an Igbo? Today, this still remains a challenge. I am still trying to find a community – even if small – of people of my own ethnic background. Are there people like me? I asked myself, “do Igbo Muslims exist?” Frustrated, I scoured the internet for anything – ANYTHING that would reassure me that there were people like me. Alhamduillah, I came across this blog – about an Igbo Muslimah convert named Ify. I contacted Ify immediately, and soon we became friends.

[b]While I expected hostility from my own community, I am somewhat dumbfounded and shocked by the treatment that I have received from some born Muslims. This is certainly not an attack on the fellow Muslims who have embraced me and provided support, but rather a critique of the way some born Muslims interact with converts. You never know who might be a new Muslim – one may have converted only a few hours before your encounter. Your interaction can either help a new Muslim embrace their faith or help them leave it. I can sympathize with why a Muslim may leave Islam, due to a lack of community – especially if you are non-white. No one comes to you, and invites you for iftar during Ramadan. No one introduces you to people they know in their family who are looking for a wife. I can be assured that if I walk into a local church, I would at least be greeted with a “hello” or a “welcome” and a smile by one stranger in the church. As for the masjid? Not so much. Are some masajid unwelcoming? Yes – and I have yet to find a welcoming masjid in my area. I desperately long for the feeling of community, acceptance, and support, which is so critical to building my faith. In the predominantly Desi/Arab masjid I have attended, as a Black Muslimah, I am invisible – I exchange salaams with women who give me cold looks. At the end of jumu’ah, the congregation lingers, talking and exchanging greetings while I, on the other hand, walk away, and even question if anyone noticed my presence at all.[/b]

However, the hostility has also occurred at the hands of fellow Africans. I can recall one instance when I stood next to an African woman, not realizing that she was praying on her own before the calling of the adhan. I had just converted, and was still trying to understand how to perform salah. She later looked at me sternly and said, “You don’t know how to pray?” in front of others. Embarrassed, I made some excuse and apologized for the confusion. I was too embarrassed to announce to the entire group that stood around me that I had recently converted. She neither bothered to assist me nor to make me feel welcome. I never entered that masjid again. I would have preferred her to come to me and say, “Sister, I noticed that you were praying with me before the adhan? Normally, this is a private prayer.”

I am putting my story out there to paint a 3D picture of the life of a female convert to Islam that may be residing in your community. She was not a blank canvas before embracing Islam. Rather she had an established cultural identity and is trying to merge it with her faith to paint a picture of who she is today. She may not have the support of her family or community and needs the umma to become her second family. Honestly, if my faith alone rested in the hands of Muslims in my community, I would have left Islam long ago. However Allah (Subhanahu wa ta ala) gives me strength to persevere even through tribulations and I ask everyone to please make dua to make this easier and my faith strong.

But don’t shed tears for me, just yet. I have found a small group of converts that I can call on for support. Recently, meeting Ify and her crew has expanded my circle, Alhamduillah. On a Friday night, Ify, her Muslimah friends, and I went out for cupcakes and pizza. We laughed, talked and giggled the night away. As I sat next to these women eating my delicious pizza, I thought to myself “so this is what a community feels like.” Alhamduillah, I think I have found a niche – a niche not based on culture, race or ethnic affiliation. But a niche based on the principles of Islam and the fear of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta ala) alone. Personally, I prefer the latter. Because while friends, family, and strangers may isolate you, the love of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta ala) is so much greater and and more rewarding.

Its Not easy sis and I sure know what u are on about.

The love and grace of God is sufficient for u and indeed us all.Allah (swt) has led you to Ify and he wud lead you to many more who wud love and accept u,regardless of ur race and colour.
Stay strong.

Pineapple drink from it's peel is one of the best wines I've ever tasted. It's so so nice that if people get to know this secret, pineapple peels will probably become more expensive than the whole.

To prepare:

Things you'll need:
pineapple skins
container
water
sugar
1 week

1. Place washed skins of one pineapple in a pot, add one liter and a half of water to it and boil for 30 minutes

2. Place the skins with the boiled water in a container.

3. Add sugar to your pineapple skins.

4. Seal your container and place underneath your sink or somewhere out of site

When you are done fermenting the pineapple skins strain the skins and
pieces and voila! you have a refreshing fermented pineapple drink!

Add water or ice to taste.

When I was 16, I got tipsy out of taking this drink because it was so sweet, I couldn't resist it.

Wish I'll get paid for this information! It's too sweet to be given out for free!!!

You definitely were high on the juice when u resurrected this thread

Seems this is going to be fun,wud try it this weekend.Sugar shld be optional right?

Obviously the OP is just out to drive traffic to his pathetic blog.

And to think I imagined the OP was Nigerian,Yoruba precisely.Here was I singing "do bale" (to kneel in greeting as a sign of respect) not knowing the OP is the land's newest J-E-R-K.

Mscheew.Goodbye thread.

Coincidence or hide-and-seek ?

aribisala0:
how do i know you guys are not just making this up

Rofl
You extremely funny.

Your do bale is worth? Guy,no make me use laff wound myself jor.

Ujujoan:
@ Ify

The first seperation was more like a fight. He complained to her parents about somethings she did and when the tried to reason with him he flared up and told them to come and take their daughter back. He later apologized for that when they made up. but this time aror he came with his people and demanded the dowry back and her family obliged.

On the issue of childbirth I know my friend tried. The man has a LSC and is constantly in fertility treatments. Me I feel he must have , by some miracle impregnated someone else and wants to marry her.

Anyway I hope my friend will realize that no man is worth fighting for.

Ok ooh.

Well,If a man can tell my family to my face to come and take me back NO matter what I did,then the deal is over.That to me is the height of recklessness and disrespect.Apology my foot!

Abeg this your friend and guy get compound problems,its good they went their different ways.Both of them wud be fine . . .time heals all wounds and opens your eyes to your past folly.

^Haha,dobale fun e jor.Is do bale not supposed to be 2 words btw?

Indifference . . . Nkiri- nkiri,anya- anya.

She had all the time in the world to UnCloth,plead,discuss,dress again,lock door,run from room to room YET she could not run out of the house or scream Until it was too late.
Na wao

In some African cultures, the wife is allowed to sleep with some of the husband's visitors throughout their visit as a sign of hospitality.

This is one culture that I can't seem to figure out considering that a greater % of African men are extremely jealous.
Lol,Wonder If the women then were wise enough to utilize this culture. . .invite the bootycall to the house and have him legally all night.  ,Perhaps there is a sort of measure in place to determine who[i] qualifies[/i] as an over-night guest? lol

@PhysicsMHD

Ujujoan:
Madam CC thank you so much for your usual insight and kind words. She will be fine, I will make sure of that!

That's not really true sweetie,She wud be fine Permanently the day she decides to place a value on her head.

You can lend her a shoulder to cry on now,talk and encourage her but the only true recovery lies within her.

Do you think she wud be able to say NO to that guy NOW or in the nearest future if he wants her back or even asks for nites out,help with laundry,cooking?Is she still wailing and wallowing in self pity,waiting and hoping that her fairy prince makes a move again.

Her true liberation is in her hands.

Dk,how far?You got the body yet? Dandy Randy or nuffin

@ Ify
They were going to skip the igba nkwu proper so he did the ime ego in a big way and settled the umunna. The were planning on just a white wedding to seal the deal.

However t[b]he man went with his umunna to tell her people he didn't want her anymore and requested for a refund of the bride price. Technically that's divorce in a traditional way. [/b]

This was after the first divorce?

If he actually did that after the first separation and she STILL went back to him then she be proper[b] MGBADA.[/b]
