nagoma: .Boko Haram are terrorists and their objective seems to be starting an all out religious war in Nigeria. The targeting of innocent people and murdering them is the most provocative act that anybody can commit and we must commend and appreciate the tolerance and restraint shown by the groups affected. However BH are far from the tenents of islam even though they justify their murders by saying that they do it for islam - false. Some people are suggesting that Islam doesnt support forgivenessagain false. please read my last 3 pargraphs below. I willand all should understand the anger of ordinary peace loving people in this situation and especially those who lost loved ones to this unwanton murder (I have lost some relatives -muslim relatives). If people decide to fight everybody in nigeria who is a muslim because of less than 0.1% of socalled muslims decide to rebel and run a criminal life then BH is winning because thats exactly what they want. The state is responsible for citizens security even in ancient times and ancient kingdoms it was the responsibility of a leader to repel invasion and establish peace ,justice and harmony in the land. BH are left to grow and are becoming too big. But they cant be upto 500,000 in number including their families. This number in a country of 155 million people is just 0.3% and they cannot win if we are united and have the will. If we decide otherwise we are falling into the trap set by them BH and their sponsors and we are doomed.

Human Forgiveness in Islam:

Just as it is important to believe in the mercy and forgiveness of Allah, it is also necessary to base human relations on forgiveness. We cannot expect Allah’s forgiveness unless we also forgive those who do wrong to us. Forgiving each other, even forgiving one’s enemies is one of the most important Islamic teaching. In the Qur’an Allah has described the Believers as “those who avoid major sins and acts of indecencies and when they are angry they forgive.” (al-Shura 42:37) Later in the same Surah Allah says, “The reward of the evil is the evil thereof, but whosoever forgives and makes amends, his reward is upon Allah.” (al-Shura 42:40) In another place the Qur’an says, “If you punish, then punish with the like of that wherewith you were afflicted. But if you endure patiently, indeed it is better for the patient. Endure you patiently. Your patience is not except through the help of Allah (al-Nahl 16:126-127)

In one Hadith the Prophet -peace be upon him- said that Allah has commanded him about nine things. One of them he mentioned was “that I forgive those who do wrong to me.”

The Prophet -peace be upon him- was the most forgiving person. He was ever ready to forgive his enemies. When he went to Ta’if to preach the message of Allah, its people mistreated him. They abused him and hit him with stones.

He left the city humiliated and wounded. When he took shelter under a tree, the angel of Allah visited him and told him that Allah sent him to destroy the people of Ta’if because of their sin of mistreating their Prophet. The Prophet -peace be upon him- prayed to Allah to save the people of Taif, because what they did was out of their ignorance. He said, “O Allah, guide these people, because they did not know what they were doing.” When he entered the city of Makkah after the victory, the Prophet -peace be upon him- had in front of him some of his staunchest enemies. Those who fought him for many years, persecuted his followers and killed many of them. Now he had full power to do whatever he wanted to punish them for their crimes. It is reported that the Prophet -peace be upon him- asked them, “What do you think I shall do to you now?” They pleaded for mercy. The Prophet -peace be upon him- said, “Today I shall say to you what Joseph (referring to Prophet Yusuf -peace be upon him- as mentioned in the Qur’an, Yusuf 12:92) said to his brothers, ‘No blame on you today. Go, you are all free.” Soon they all came and accepted Islam at his hands. He forgave even Hind who had caused the murder of his uncle Hamza -may Allah be pleased with him. After killing him she had his body mutilated and chewed his liver. When she accepted Islam, the Prophet even forgave her.

stainny: what will Jonathan Gain from bombing the nation? what his the motive? who will destroy his own house?

Abagworo: The worst offense from PDP to me remains the planned killing of Southerners and youth corpers during the post-election violence just to create an impression of ethnicity and religious factor.

I always knew. They should try those arrested for the killing of the corpers publicly so that Nigerians will know some truth.

APPLE GATE: How can he be given 81% approval?when the whole country is at the verge of collapse,he can't even handle a state not to talk of a nation,he lacks the strong will & will power to do so,he can't take tough decisions.I say NO to 81%,rather 20% or even non at all,i've not felt the direct impact of his rule.

ademega: who tell u say oyinbo no dey collect bribe? i am sure they collected smtin b4 they could come out wit such stupid percentage

Ganys: I have been waiting for you, i know you will bark at any slight oppurtunity.Everyone knows that the view of this people doesnt represent islam and the leader of Muslim Ummah denounced them times without number.
Ok, Should we blame christianity for the offences committed by the Popular Condemned Criminal, Rev King. At least, he must have read bible before committing such crime too. Every religion have its own extremist. Stop blaming islam for the activities of Criminals called Boko Haram. Tell your retardeen President to put Nigeria in order....Enough of this Bigots

Ileke-IdI:
What is the point of posting a video if 75% of it's viewers can't understand the language?
No translation of any sort?

Anywaz, Nigerian has 150m ppl, 1m will die this year due to natural causes. More will die due to man-made chaoes such as boko haram fanatics.

Ngozi could accidentally choke on her akpu. Lola could very well , ya know. . . .

It's all good to view this from 3k+ miles tho, all good.

BlueMurder: Your thought process is not much different from that of the terrorists whose evil deeds you find it convenient to tar the entire Muslims with. So because an isolated group kills and maims in the name of Islam, you conclude gleefully that they are Muslims and rush in an undignified manner to spew such rubbish? Should it then be appropriate for me to say that Christianity is an evil religion on account of the number of Christians caught in Muslim robes trying to burn up churches? Or that Christianity encourages murder on account of the mass murder of 77 persons by a Norwegian who claims to be a member of the Knight Templars, working hard to rid Europe of Muslims?

You are better of directing your energy to calling on the President to unmask the sponsors of this terrorists without further ado. Or have you forgotten that he said he knew them?

shadrach77: the poll was conducted in 2011

shagaman: APPARENTLY THEIR ALLAH IS SO WEAK HE NEEDS A BUNCH OF IMBECILES TO COME AND FIGHT FOR HIM!.. YUCK!!!!!!...
THIS IS NOT THE SAME GOD WHO CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH OH!

@kay-1one ,Having access to the internetdoesnt mean you should type jaggons...Ur level of intelligence is below par. BE REASONABLE AND GROW UP.

When America invaded Iraq looking for weapons and killing innocent people,no news paper reported it that
a christian leader attacked a country.
Lets face the truth Religion isnt the problem here.its more of political cleansing.
The attacks increased immediately GEJ announced he would run in 2015
The country is weak,the president is weak.
We need all go our seperate ways

Faraidi: you are the son/daughter of a bastard idiot

abacus: Leave Were alone with his blind loyalty, he's either a real were (madt) or clueless as his GEJ.
President of a country is even far for the analogy, use president of a home. Abi if he's head of family won't he fend for his family. The bible says, people like that are "more than an infidel" talk less of head of a country.

PapaBrowne: The Islam we have come to know is the one Boko Haram, Al Qaeda, the Taliban and Sharia Pundits have shown to us. It is one of bombs, wars, violence and extreme aggression. It is one that oppresses women beyond reason and one that preaches hate towards non Muslims. This might not be what Islam was intended to be, but it is what we have come to know it as. And it is such because, muslims who abhor these acts fail to stand up aggressively against the actions of these evil groups.

We all have come to know Chinese products as sub standard, doesn't mean all Chinese goods are such.
The world has come to know Nigerians with 419, doesn't mean all Nigerians are such.
We all have come to know politicians with corruption, doesn't mean all politicians are corrupt.

We all have come to know Christianity with Prosperity and Healing because that is the dominant push into the space by their propagators. Rich Pastors,huge crowds, Faith Healing, Music, tithes, etc!
Islam's dominant push is terrorism, repression and intolerance because the loudest propagators are the terrorists and the extremists.

Every stereotype becomes the dominant reality except the silent majority wakes up and takes back the ownership of their perception by populating the space with their intended/assumed original outlook. Until liberal Muslims rise up and speak vehemently against extremism, violence and terrorism perpetuated in the name of Islam, it would continue to be perceived as a terrible religion and sooner or later fade out as more educated children of Muslims begin to question the validity of their parents religion in comparison to other more peaceful and prosperous religious forms.

The prognosis for Islam in the near future I must admit is one of extinction except the liberals stand up and fight the war against extremism.

Socratez20: Nairalanders, d increasing exponential rate of bombingz is no body's happiness, bt u must all understand dt fighting terrorism has neva been an easy Job, yes lyfs r lost evryday includin my relationz, bt d raining of abuses on d presidnt has nt in any way curbed d menance, truly wv observationz d presidnt is walkin @ a slow pace, bt d only help we cn giv Him now is to pray n support Him, am very sure dt no presidnt is happy wen His/Her govt.

JaaizTech: As for the women they would enjoy all the great bounties of paradise, and those whose husbands make paradise will also remain with their husbands. As per if women will get many husbands too I am sure women do not desire many husbands. God made sex good, God made Hauwa(eve) for Adam, even while He was in paradise, if sex wasn't a blessing for mankind in general, then I am sure even Prophets of God Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses), Dawud(David), Sulaiman(Solomon) would not have married let alone marry more than one wife.They say the best blessing a man can have is a good wife!; good woman.

Dakinthing: The problem with boko haram is dt d pple involved r ready to die so wat else can u do to a dead man

maasoap: Nigerians are jokes! You know Buhari's ability and competence, you didn't vote for him. You had opportunity, you blew it away. Now, you want him to serve as GEJ's dog to hunt down wild animals called Boko Harams. You want to eat your cake and have it. If you believe that Buhari can solve our problems, vote for him come 2015. But for now, stop day dreaming because it is not gonna come to reality. By the way, Buhari didn't create BH, he is not an ex BH and he is not BH godfather. Your analogy is faulty.
