Eid al- mawlid = prophet mohamend birthday

History

The oldest Mawlid text is claimed to be from the 12th century and most likely is of Persian origin. [5] However The first mention ever made of the mawlid celebrations in any historical work comes in the writings of Jamāl al-Dīn Ibn al- Ma'mūn, who died 587 AH/1192 CE. His father was the Grand Vizier for the Fatimid Caliph al- Amir (ruled 494-524 AH/1101-1130 CE).

Mawā'īẓ al-i'tibār fī khiṭaṭ Miṣr wa-l-amṣār [6] The earliest observation of the Prophet's birth as a holy day was arranged privately somewhere in the late twelfth century.

The only difference from before was that there was an increased number
of visitors to the Mawlid house that was open for the whole day specifically for this celebration. This particular event took place on Monday, 12 Rabi'i,[7] which is commonly known as the third month of the Islamic calendar that is associated with the beginning of Spring.[8] This celebration was introduced into the city Sabta by Abu
'l'Abbas al-Azafi as a way of counteracting
Christian festivals and to strengthen Muslim identity.[9] The mawlid was not the only celebration that was sponsored by the Fatimids. Al-Maqrīzi, in his Khiṭaṭ [10] Al-Maqrīzi writes in his Khiṭaṭ The Fatimid Caliphs had, throughout the year, a
number of festivals and celebrations.

These were: 1. New Year's Eve, 2. Beginning of the year celebrations, 3. The Day of 'Āshūrā', 4. The birthday of the Prophet salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam, 5. The birthday of 'Alī, 6. The birthday of al-Ḥasan, 7. The birthday of al-
Husayn, 8. The birthday of Fāṭima al-Zahrā', 9.
The birthday of the current Caliph, 10. The first
day of Rajab, 11. The fifteenth day of Rajab, 12.
The first day of Sha'bān, 13. The fifteenth day of
Sha'bān, 14. The festival of Ramaḍān, 15. the first day of Ramaḍān, 16. The middle of Ramaḍān, 17.
The end of Ramaḍān, 18. The Night of the Khatm,
19. The Day of 'Īd al-Fitr, 20. The Day of 'Īd of
Sacrifice, 21. The Day of 'Īd al-Ghadīr, 22. The
'Cloth of Winter', 23. The 'Cloth of Summer', 24.
The Day of the 'Conquest of the Peninsula', 25. The Day of Nawrūz [Persian festival], 26. The Day
of Veneration [Christian], 27. Christmas [Christian], 28 Lent [Christian] [6][11] The early celebrations included elements of Sufic
influence, with animal sacrifices and torchlight
processions along with public sermons and a feast.[12][13] The celebrations occurred during the day, in contrast to modern day observances,
with the ruler playing a key role in the ceremonies.[14] Emphasis was given to the Ahl al-Bayt with presentation of sermons and recitations of the Qur'an. The event also featured
the award of gifts to officials in order to bolster support for the ruling caliph.[15] Particularly in early Cairo, this holy day was celebrated by the
court and the ruling class, not the common people.[7] Practice Milad procession in India Traditionally, many Indian Sub continent Sunni and most of the Shia scholars have approved celebration of Mawlid,[16][17] while the many other Sunni scholars[18][19][20] and the Ahmadiyya[21] oppose the celebration.[22] In the Muslim world, the majority of Islamic
scholars are in favor of Mawlid. They consider
observing Mawlid necessary or permissible in
Islam, and see it as a praiseworthy event and positive development,[16][17] whilst the Salafists say it is an improper innovation and forbid its
celebration. One leader of Ahl al-Hadith, Ibn Taymiyya forbade Mawlid celebration as it is not in any of the Haditn nor the Quran itself, unlike the other two Muslim celebrations.[23] Mufti Ali Gomaa, Chief Mufti of the world's oldest and largest Islamic university, Al Azhar in Egypt[citation needed], Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the primary scholar of the Muslim Brotherhood movement[citation needed], Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki, Grand Mufti of Cyprus Nazim Al- Haqqani[citation needed], Habib Ali al-Jifri of Yemen[citation needed], Syed Shujaat Ali Qadri, Muhammad Ilyas Qadri the founder of Dawat-e- Islami, Sheikh Nuh Ha Mim Keller, Grand Mufti of Bosnia Mustafa Cerić, Abdalqadir as-Sufi, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, Gibril Haddad, Shaykh Said Afandi al-Chirkawi, Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, Grand Mufti of India Akhtar Raza Khan , Kanthapuram A. P. Aboobacker Musalyar of Markazu Saqafathi Sunniya and Zaid Shakir all subscribe to Sunni Islam, and have given their approval for the observance of Mawlid.[24] They suggest that fasting on Mondays is also a way of
commemorating Muhammad's birthday. For the
first in English Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has published a book Mawlid al- Nabi Celebration and Permissibility defending the legality of Mawlid over more than 700 pages.[25] Scholars and preachers who consider Mawlid to
be Bid‘ah and forbid its celebration belong to the Salafi, Deobandi and Qurʾāniyūn ideologies; they include Abd al-Aziz ibn Abd Allah ibn Baaz , who was the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia,[26] Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, the imam of the Masjid al- Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia,[27] Zakir Naik,[28] and Bilal Philips,[29] of the Salafi movement, and Ebrahim Desai who subscribe to the Deobandi movement. The Ahmadiyya also deem the celebration of Mawlid as an innovation in Islam.
The remembrance of the Islamic prophet
Muhammad is deemed a virtue and is
encouraged, remembrance of the birth and
death of the Prophet while relating his life
(seerah) are also permissible but not when tainted with practices which interfere with the
Unity of God. The holding of gatherings and
processions which involve innovative practices
and decorations on the 12th Rabi'ul awwal are condemned.[21] Ahmadis do, however, regularly hold gatherings called jalsa seerat-un-
Nabi emphasising the life and legacy of
Muhammad oriented towards both Muslim and non-Muslim audiences.[30] However, These gatherings are not considered obligatory nor is it
necessary to hold them on a fixed date.

since this week i have been trying to send airtime via mtn share and sell but to no avail...

Is anyone experiencing this problem like mine?

neupert:
We have and the price is 7k how soon do you need it.

what about the full notebook case? LG X120.. I dont like the case. can you get the case from used laptop?

According to Reuters, the Chinese have taken Gmail outside their Great Firewall, so the largest email client in the world can no longer be accessed from within the country. An anti-censorship organization from China named GreatFire.org has stated that Google's mail client has been almost completely blocked during the past four days. The statement is confirmed by Google's Transparency Report which shows a drastic decrease in traffic for China since Friday.

This isn't the first time that the Chinese government has done something like this. At the beginning of this summer, the Beijing officials blocked Gmail for the entire duration of the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre. However, at that time there were a few loopholes which allowed people to bypass the blockage by using either Microsoft Outlook or Apple's standard email client. This time, those means of evasion no longer exist.

When asked by the media about the reasons behind the blockage, Google offered a very evasive answer stating that "We've checked and there's nothing wrong on our end," Hua Chunying, a spokeswoman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that she has no information about Gmail being blocked. She also added that the country she represents is devoted to offering a good business environment to all the foreign investors.

However, according the GreatFire group "the government is just trying to further eliminate Google's presence in China and even weaken its market overseas." Since most of Google's services have been obstructed by the Chinese government since June of this year, the aforementioned statement doesn't seem so farfetched.

ireneony:

good now that you knw where i am from. We are not fool here. We do things with no regret. Money is not love. You cannot buy love with money.

prettyjo:

#when you want to help someone out,help the person in such a way that you will never regret doing such##
anyway,its your money and you alone should know how to spend it.

ireneony:

You are so immature, talking about prostitute....she is not a prostitute but your girlfriend....treat her like your girlfriend and companion but not like a intimacy gadget.

love? How could this be love when we are just 2 weeks. What I know about love is that you don't ask the one you love money. I am not a maga and got no magazine for nigeria girls?

jmoore:
and giving a lady money is not a guarantee that the relationship will last. Try to balance things next time.

naijaboiy:
He should pay her for the sex right?

Is she a prostitute

i cant find any difference only for the fact that one is a package one.

ireneony:
What are guys turning into .....you mean to tell us you can't help a lady who is your girlfriend? I thought when a guy start dating a lady that is when he will try to please her . Op better change your mentality.
How old are you self.
Don't be deceived in whatever some guys bragged about not caring for a lady here, this is just a forum not reality, you would be surprise how this guys try to spend their pennies just to date a lady.

oh please her? What is she going to please me with apart from sex? Do you look me like someone who is hungry of sex?

Can't we be friend just like that? Is she not prostitute. A cost one at that.

prettyjo:
if you know within you that you can give her such amount without any problem,then what's the big deal in helping her out.
what's with all these money threads guys are jux opening.mstchewww

oh. Tell me since when I turn to her parent? So it now pays to have a friend or keep a friend? No money no friend.

Taking responsibility when you are just friend?

mirexxx:
so? give her if you have jor!

borrow me to give na. I don't have.

And don't be surprise after 2 weeks again and she need another 20k.

PapiDShipCapt:
If u guys have commmitted urselves to sex-making, I would suggest if she is asking for 10 naira u give her 4naira. If she accept it with good intention, its okay but if she get paranoid because u gave her 4naira instead of 10 den my broda use scope collect back d 4naia jare.

But sometimes to a little extent, be cheerful to ur sex partner.

no sex. She has the believe I will run if I had sex. If its sex. then its cheaper to do it with ashawo.
Its around 5h here. Or if I need to lodge in hotel
plus control of ashawo 6k is enough. But she need 12k... I need friend with her. Then sex should be
mutual thing between us. No spending to have
her. There is no different if you ask me nigeria
babe and ashawo... And Like as I said if I need sex I get it cheaper
than keeping a nigeria girl.

she ain't using the word borrow. But I should give her money to do something.

Since when relationship start with burden and demands? it has to be a mutual thing. we both agree to be friend to help each other in sex satisfaction and other things not material.

Why must I be paying bills to have a friend. At the some time I will be using all means to please her both in sex and every material things. then what is my gain?

When you can't perform in any of this, they say you are not man enough. Then who is now woman enough?

6k? That approximately 12 different babe and sex. 5h each. Guy next time use your brain for once. nowadays nigga don't give girls money. We only flex them by taking them out and you know the rest...

the guy might just be returning from prison only to find out his babe has abandon him and ate his money else.

let the police investigate the root cause of the problem before anyone start insulting the guy.

what i will do to the eristo girls who chop my money. And the ogbaji them who play with my intelligent.

when I mean thick babe I mean thick chick with ass and all that.

now do you find a really slim cute guy attracting, do you feel irritated and disgusting? Or you like them.

what is your teste of guys really? Thick guys or slim guys? I mean preference and first choice.

for thick chicks only.

Thanks

If the world we are in has already happened, then our existence is an illusion were we think we control our lives. It just doesn't add up. If I go by that same thought of the world I live in as a replay, I wouldn't stress myself half bit.

check the account of your lord Jesus. When he was on earth He has no control over is life. But he live to fulfill the account that nature has for him. Everything about him has already happened before he came to earth and the account of his disciples as well.

An example is that.

now How I wish you have power to see future. you will know or understand what I am talking about.

waleadex:
I am not sure about removal of fuel subsidy but that of increase in electricity tariff is already on ground but to take effect in 6months time.

plans for federal toll gates and total remover of subsidy expect them next year if PDPI remains in power.

PDP plans to remove fuel subsidy & increase electricity tariff after 2015 election.

Be warned everyone, everything will be increase and toll gate all over the federal road with transport fare hike.

Ruq:
You can change it.

red101 I get where you're coming from. That feeling keeps popping up whenever I see pictures of others doing great, then the thought of my age and my current position comes to mind, I will always wish I was younger, because I feel there are some things I know now which would have helped me reached my goal earlier had I known them. Worse thing is I also feel I should have been reflecting in the lives of others, this just gets me depressed most times.
Now I just make up my mind to be logical about everything that happens in my life and continue finding solutions to whatever happens to me. Then I stopped wishful thinking, and luck cuz I don't think they help in situations like this.

About my goals I still feel their attainable despite the place I'm at now, all I have to do is be disciplined enough to pursue it and not deviate from the goal. I just feel I could have been there earlier. Just has its been said there could be reasons we're still where we are. I guess this is what makes you a tough cookie. And about the picture you see on social networks, most of'em are fakes, and just as you and I will do, I too would definitely put up pictures of the made era not the times of the struggle.
I believe whoever has this kind of thought wants more out of life than they are getting, and you'll definitely get there, you just have to constantly ignore the current position and move on. that's what I'm doing, it could be annoying at times, but I think we just have to continue, I don't believe in anything as a bad destiny, or destined to be poor and ish, those are crap people use to enslave others from reaching their potential.

Wish you a productive and successful 2015

I am not sayin one should stay back without working hard or doing anything. But they are limit to issue. The world you sees today has already happened. You need to be spiritual enough.

Misblah:
sweetie i completely disagree with the above. i am in control of my life, i speak what i want and back it up with actions and wether nature agrees to it or not.... get what I want. acco ding to F. Shinn "The invisible forces are ever working for man who is always ‘pulling the
strings’ himself, though he does not
know it. Owing to the vibratory power
of words, whatever man voices, he
begins to attract."

well i am not here to argue. If you oppose to my believe and the fact that's your own.

If you think I am wrong then wish yourself to be the first lady of nigeria within 20 years time and make it come to pass as you said you have control over your life.

its not a matter of trusting HIM for goodies as its said here. Its what is your destiny good or bad accept it. You cant change it.

what? All i care about is give me the chicken , pounded yam, rice and the acohol for this unchangeable holiday fist. december 25th is cool for the date. Weither its the real birth date or not. But 25th december sound the best day in the year for xmas holiday close to new year just a week.
