IBO GIRL:
Hi, pple there is dis common occurence in nigeria esp wit d ibos dat demands family members 2shave dia hair wen a family head dies, any idea why dis happens. I've seen pple wit very long n beautiful hair shave, jus because its tradition. Is it compulsory, why n wats d significance of dis norm.

I never knew theres a tribe known as Ibos,Its Igbo babe.
@Topic,it might have originated from the bible,the Isrealites put on sackcloth and shave their heads anytime they were mourning.
I dont think its compulsory either.

Ebelebe igba.
Youngies,udo di.

T.truth and Kay9,pls take ur grievances against Islam or Muslims somewhere else.
[quote author=t.truth link=topic=359506.msg5411596#msg5411596 date=1264783415]Islam represents backwardness, violence, wickedness and deceit. We all see what went wrong in Jos and how people were massacred, slayed and butchered persistently in Northern Nigeria for political and religious domination. I learnt that Boko Haram fighters were a group of 3,800 Nigerians, trained as fighters in Sudan, with a mission to invade Jos.

95% of wars are instigated and perpetrated by muslims. Islam is completely against democracy because in most Islamic countries, there is no freedom whatsoever.

Religion of peace indeed !!! Don't ever trust any muslim because even in their Quran they are alllowed to deceive (Al-Taqiyah) people to achieve their aim. God have mercy !!![/quote]

Kay 17:
Islam is destructive. trying someone under religious rules he doesn't believe in? muslims just create a different society with different laws inside a society. and bomb us.

LB,i was expecting to see "shaving of hair by women and eating pork" 
Please,do explain the ffg  for me ;
15. Running away from the battlefield .
33. Woman's imitating man and man's imitating woman .(dressing or what?)
58. Slaughtering an animal which has been dedicated to anyone other than Allah .
49. Lamenting, wailing, tearing the clothing, and doing other things of this sort when an affliction befalls (cant we mourn,we are humane afterall?)
57. A slave's running away from his master (thought we agreed on Islam discouraging the concept of slavery?)

@Poster,when u started dating this Redeemed boy,what where u thinking?
when your catholic parents were collecting the Redeemed mans bride price,what were they thinking?
Seriously,everything your wedding day,every vital decision shld be taken by just you and your husband,dont let your parents or anyone interfere or spoil your marriage ever b4 it began . . . . but however,your husband and u can reach a compromise,have the wedding at a Redeemed church and hold the thanksgiving in a catholic church 
Quick question for toi,after the wedding,wud u become 'Redeemed', 'Confessed" or 'Catholic" ?

Are u bothered cos he disturbs ur sleep or u bothered cos of his health?
Concentrate on making him see the dangers of obesity and snoring on his health,talk to him sweetly and kindly and let him understand u care abt his health.Encourage him with love to go see an ENT and for the meantime,use earplugs.

LB,thanks a million though its a long list.Wud take my time to go through it and ask questions if necessary.
Yes,My Jumai went well

dgb4:
hello people,
A friend of mine has a female friend (just friends) whom father died recently,
my friend is thinking of buying the coffin as his own part of contribution to the burial.

He is just a friend and the family members dont even know him.

What would be your advise in this case??

If he is a husband or husband-to-be it might sound OK but a mere friend common,ask ur friend to give the girl the money he intends to use get the coffin.It is in most places,the first son/daughter that gets the coffin when the old man dies but if the family asked his girl to get a coffin for the dad,he STILL shouldnt be the one to buy the coffin,he shld give the cash to the babe,let her do the purchase herself. _{u cant cry more than the bereaved.}

Some of the things we see as unfortunate turn out to be blessings in disguise.

I've not noticed.
Just incase it happens to be true,it might be cos naturally as first borns/sons they are expected to grow up quick and start catering for the younger ones.They make lots of mistakes,wrong choices and decisions along the line which might be corrected or not while the younger ones enjoy the priviledge of learning from the elder bros mistakes.
