Christianity EtcRe: Is Drinking Alcohol A Sin Or Not According To The Bible? by lanrexlan(m): 10:57am On Nov 30, 2014
Jakeattah:
Drink but don't get drunk. Cos when you are, you're likely to do something stupid
Nah,maybe you forget to read this.
Jeremiah 25:27-28 (NIV) -Then tell them,This is what the LORD Almighty,the God of Israel,says:Drink,get drunk and vomit,and fall to rise no more because of the sword I will send among you.
But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink,tell them,This is what the LORD Almighty says:You must drink it!.


This is called forced drinking,drink and get drunk.Amazing abi?
Then,the bible says wine makes life,men and god rejoice. Ecclesiastes 10:19 (NIV) -A feast is made for laughter,and wine makes life merry,but money is the answer for everything
Judges 9:13 (NIV) -But the vine answered, Should I give up my wine,which cheers both gods and men,to hold sway over the trees?.


Then what's the outcome of drunkenness? Proverbs 23:31-34 (NIV) -Do not gaze at wine when it is red,when it sparkles in the cup,when it goes down smoothly!In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper.Your eyes will see strange sights and your mind imagine confusing things.You will be like one sleeping on the high seas,lying on top of the rigging.Marvellous indeed.

Christianity EtcRe: God Created Everyone For A Purpose.what About miscarried babies? by lanrexlan(m): 9:12pm On Nov 28, 2014
Surah Al-Hajj 22:5 --O mankind! If you are in doubt about the Resurrection, then verily! We have created you (i.e. Adam) from dust, then from a Nutfah (mixed drops of male and female sexual discharge i.e. offspring of Adam), then from a clot then from a little lump of flesh,— some formed and some unformed (as in the case of miscarriage), that We may make (it) clear to you (i.e. to show you Our Power and Ability to do what We will). And We cause whom We will to remain in the wombs for an appointed term, then We bring you out as infants, then (give you growth) that you may reach your age of full strength. And among you there is he who dies (young), and among you there is he who is brought back to the miserable old age, so that he knows nothing after having known. And you see the earth barren, but when We send down water (rain) on it, it is stirred (to life), it swells and puts forth every lovely kind (of growth)

Allah does What He wills, He has power over ALL things.

No matter how you want to spin it, there is overwhelming records from the life of mohammed that he spread Islam through violent means and he taught his followers to do likewise. And till this day some muslims(boko haram,ISIS)0 are still spreading Islam through violent means.
Since you have run out of ideas, you can turn your repetitive words above to a hymn and sing it in your church.

PastorKun:
Stop being out rightly dishonest, Arab muslims that understand their language better than you admit that Jihad is 'holy' war which is used to propagate the spread of Islam through force.
You just keep committing fallacy, understanding arabic isn't tantamount to understanding Islam.Arabic is a language while Islam is a way of life, two different things pastor.
Jihad doesn't mean holy even in arabic, it is derived from the root word 'Ja-Ha-Da'(Jim Hau Dal) which means to strive.
Jihad can be in various forms, and it doesn't in any manner means forcing people to accept Islam.

This is what mohammed himself did and there are tonnes of record from authentic islamic sources that he spread his religion through violent means. The defensive wars that mohammed fought were very few in number. Most of his military campaigns were offensive.
Offensive? Tutor us scholar, bring it forth as usual.

AlBaqir:
Ma sha Allah brother. You just buried the whole argument of it is bidah, haram etc with those summary above.
Those who vehemently reject it and call it all sort of names (bid'ah, haram et al) mostly do that based on those so-called 'reward attached to it".
Yes, there's also a tira can't really recall the name(You may know it).In this tira, the author said 'Allah should send blessings on the Prophet(pbuh) as long as the birds fly, as long the trees grow etc'.Then I listened to a critic argument on the above with some funny rebuttal.

AlBaqir: @lanrexlan, what were the argument of those alfa.
Their argument is summarized as follows:
1)It was not recommended by the Prophet(pbuh).
2)Muhammad(pbuh) was overpraised.
3)Those that lived with the Prophet(pbuh) were versed in arabic language yet they didn't prepare Solatul Al-Nabiyy by themselves.
4)Tijjaniyahs attached much importance to it
5)Muhammad(pbuh) is being elevated to an higher position.


AlBaqir: Yoruba says: "t'aabani bi ejo se gun to laase da ina e, aajole o". Kindly translate that@lanre, let me see your aayan ogbufo grin
Lol, omo see challenge. Don't try my aayan ogbufo grin

IslamRe: Jinn Stories by lanrexlan(m): 6:54am On Nov 22, 2014
Empiree:
tbaba123, albaqir, lanrexlan, honestly this is an old argument. I still pretty much do solat ibrahimah than the later. Most muslims do solat ibrahimah as least in their public life. I can also praise the prophet (s a w) in my language and it's going to be in line with Sunnah.
Sure, praising Muhammad(pbuh) in one's native tongue is even good.Yorubas will say 'A toro ike ati ige fun anabi wa Muhammad, ore ajeunje tan ki o ma ba ati awon ara ile re ati awon sahaba'.

So i dont see whats the big deal in this. I really dont care about how much hazanot are behind it. All i know is I am praising Nabi Muhammad. It's soliat. This is a very simple issue. Base on tbaba translation of solati fatih, nothing, i mean nothing wrong with it. There are tons of muslims saying both solati fatih and Ibrahima and they have no clue whatsoever where they originated.
That's just it @underlined.Some people hold on to the fact that if Tijjaniyahs say that the reward of reciting solat Fatih is 6times reading the Qu'ran then that the Tijjaniyah's problem.
Since they counted it as sending solat on the Prophet(pbuh) and their intentions is not gaining the reward of reciting 6 Qu'ran, then they can be justified.

If no other way left to appreciate Anobi other than solati fatih, i will prefer it than clubbing. No muslim deny Solati Ibrahimo. This argument is meaningless as far as i can tell.
Lol, true.No muslim deny solat Ibramiyyah, people say after tashahhud.To some, solat Fatih is just a compliment.
IslamRe: Jinn Stories by lanrexlan(m):
tbaba1234:
Is it the same solat fatih from tijaniyah or something else? May Allah forgive us.

The alfas are correct but it is not because of overpraising. The whole background is wrong.

“Their leader, Ahmad Al-Tijany, claims that he physically met the Prophet, peace be upon him, talked with him, and learned Salat-ul-Fatih from him- The wording of this Salat reads: “O Lord, have peace and blessings upon our master Muhammad, the opener of the closed, the last of the prophets, the supporter of right with right, and the guide to Your straight path, his family as high as his standing and rank.” They have beliefs concerning this Salah, including:The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, told him that the reward for reciting it once is equivalent to that of reciting the Qur’an six times.

The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, told him once again that the reward for reciting this Salah once is six thousand times as much as that for every Dhikr (Remembrance of Allah), Du`a’ (supplication), long or short, and the recitation of the Qur’an (Jawahir Al-Ma`any Wa Bulugh Al-Amany, vol. 1, p. 136)

The reward for such Salah is gained only if the reciter is authorized to recite it. This means there should be a chain of authorization tracing back to Ahmad Al-Tijany who, according to him, received this Salah from the Messenger of Allah.

Allegedly being the words of Allah (Exalted be He), this Salah is deemed to be a Hadith Qudsy (Revelation from Allah in the Prophet’s words) (Al-Durrah Al-Faridah, vol. 4, p. 128).

- He who recites Salat-ul-Fatih ten times will gain a reward that even an `Arif (Sufi who has reached a high station of worship) who had lived for one million years would not get if he had not recited it.

- He who recites this Salah even once will have his sins forgiven and will have a reward as much as that for six thousand Tasbihs (saying: “Subhan Allah [Glory be to Allah]”), Du`a’s (supplication), and Dhikrs. (See Mushtaha Al-Kharif Al-Jani, pp. 127, 299 and 300.

May Allah forgive us. When there are authentically narrated duas.
I totally get your point dear brother.You even quoted that the reward is 6 times and I heard from a Tijjaniyah that it's 22 times.What my dad was against was that the words 'overpraised' the Prophet(pbuh), on that basis it should condemned. When in reality, it doesn't overpraised Muhammad(pbuh), that's what my father stands on nothing more.

Tijjaniyah even say this solat sitting in group and spreading white cloth, I know they have some weird practices like making du'a nakedly and others.
Ameen May Allah forgives us all.

I think they are writing in ancient/old arabic because I can't see a dot on their 'faf' and 'qaf' has one dot on it.

Many NL members nearly tag me evil for defending the validity of solat fatih in the light of Quran and hadith. Still One of the very best salawat.
Salatul Fatih, Hmmmmmmm.The salwat that nearly causes commotion between my dad and some Alfas.The Alfas insisted that it's haram and bidah and the wordings 'overpraised' Muhammad(pbuh).

My dad retaliated that they should provide the overpraising, alas no evidence to support it.
I still prefer Ibramiyyah though.

PastorKun:
You can never justify the killing of human beings because of some silly cartoons that depicts another human being in a way you don't like(even though it's true).
Killing people because of a cartoon is insanity.Let me quote a sister of mine who beautifully explains it.

Ayinba1: ENOUGH ALREADY: STOP THIS INSANITY
This message for the most part is for you who say you are a muslim yet you destroy lives and
property because the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was insulted. You are no better than the one who did the insulting.
........For where does that sanctity of life amount to nothing in your eyes when Allah (SWT)
expressly forbids you to take someone else's life or even yours in the Quran unless you are in war?
How did you forget the repeated commands of
Allah (SWT) that you should not be the
trangressors, you should be patient? Do you realize how far away you are from the example of the Prophet Mohammed (SAW)? Who was ever more insulted than the beloved Prophet of Allah (pbuh)?
Did he fight for his own sake or did he do it when Allah commanded ?
www.nairaland.com/1053854/enough-already-stop-insanity

That said, the head of ISIS Abubakar al bagadhi has a PHD in islamic studies and you can't claim to understand islam better than him.
Argumentum Ad-Verecundiam(Fallacy of appealing to an authority).Because Abubakar Al Bagadhi possesses a PHD in Islamic studies doesn't make him an authority in Islamic jurisprudence unless he supports his claims with evidences taken in the right context.

There is a noble man, well versed in the Qu'ran and arabic knowledge had a PHD also and doesn't offer solat(prayer).Should we say his Islam is also correct?
Sometimes, it doesn't amount to the knowledge you possessed but how much you understanding you have about the knowledge you possess.
So pastor, stop appealing to unnecessary authorities.

That is apart from the example Muhammed gave of spreading islam through jihad(force) the example of which islamic terrorists follow today.
This is ignorance on your part.Jihad means to strive, no where in arabic is Jihad tantamount to force. If I wake up forFajr solat(morning prayer), I am doing Jihad.

La ikra fi'din (Let There be no compulsion in religion), you don't force people to accept Islam.If Allah wills, He could have made all mankind submissive to his will, that's very easy for my Lord.

It is my opinion that no true prophet of God would employ violence in spreading the message of God.
Violence is different from fighting those that fight you first on the account of your religion, fighting oppressors
etc.
Nobody displays tolerance and loves,it in preaching message like Muhammad(pbuh).People accepted his message because of his gentleness and tolerance.Once he Prophet(pbuh) helped a man with his load and the man doesn't know he was a Prophet.So, this talked badly about Muhammad(pbuh) not knowing it is Muhammad(pbuh) that is helping him with his load.The Prophet(pbuh) didn't utter a word they reached their destination when this man found out it was actually Muhammad(pbuh) that helped with load, he was astonished that he accepted Islam.
That's tolerance and love.

Do you know the story of the Jewish woman that usually pour banana peels on the Prophet(pbuh)'s way?

Jesus preceded mohammed and his methods was 100% peaceful mohammed should have learnt from that if truly he represented the same God.
Peaceful? Don't let us go into the commandments of 'Jesus' that are harsh.
IslamRe: Best Form Of Tawassul (intercession) - Using The Holy Prophet by lanrexlan(m): 6:12pm On Nov 21, 2014
MrOlai:
@lanrexlan. It's unfortunate u fail to decipher Albaqir's tactics. Of course, he is free to practice his shi'sm. "Let there be no compulsion in religion" Dat is what Allah(SWT) says in d holy Qur'an. However, it would be very wrong of him to come here to present shi'a doctrine & pretend as if he speaks for d generality of muslims.
So Waseela and Tawwasul is now Shia doctrine? I know you will be shocked if I present to you the opinions of past scholars like Hafidh Ibn Kathir, Imam An-Nawawi,Imam Al-Qurtubi et al on tawassul and Waseela.
An example is below.
Jama'at (Many scholars) have stated this tradition. One of them is Abu Mansur al-Sabbagh who writes in his book Al-Shamil Al-Hikayat-ul-mashhurah that, according to ‘Utbi, once he was sitting beside the Prophet’s grave when a bedouin came and he said, “Peace be on you,O Allah’s Messenger. I have heard that Allah says: ‘(O beloved!) And if they had come to you, when they had wronged their souls, and asked forgiveness of Allah, and the Messenger also had asked forgiveness for them, they (on the basis of this means and intercession) would have surely found Allah the Granter of repentance, extremely Merciful.’
I have come to you, asking forgiveness for my sins and I make you as my intermediary before my Lord and I have come to you for this purpose.” Then he recited these verses: “O, the most exalted among the buried people who improved the worth of the plains and the hillocks! May I sacrifice my life for this grave which is made radiant by you, (the Prophet,) the one who is (an embodiment) of mercy and forgiveness.” Then the bedouin went away and I fell asleep. In my dream I saw the Holy Prophet(Peace Be Upon Him). He said to me: O ‘Utbi, the bedouin is right, go and give him the good news that Allah has forgiven his sins. [Ibn Kathir, Tafsir-ul-Qur'an al-azim Volume 004, Page No. 140, Under the Verse 4:64]

O ya, tell us Hafidh Ibn Kathir is a Shia.

MrOlai: A nairalander muslim once asked him here whether he is a shi'a or not, after he(Albaqir) presented a topic on d companions of d Prophet(SAW) here. He kept silent. What does dat mean?
One thing is that AlBaqir doesn't hide that he is a Shia.He once said
AlBaqir :
I am a shia (follower) of ahli Muhammad(household of Muhammad).
www.nairaland.com/1462478/ten-promised-paradise-bound-companions
satisfied?



MrOlai: Mister lanrexlan, don't be cajouled by Albaqir. Don't be a partner to him in destroying other souls. Rem. other people follow us on Nairaland both moslims & non-muslims alike.
Lol,cajouled? I have been engaging AlBaqir for over a year on this forum.So, I don't think at this stage he can cajoule me.

We don't agree on everything, he presents his views and you should present yours.We do have misunderstanding sometimes, that's human nature.
Which soul are you destroying for goodness sake? Present a contradictory view or quit whining.
IslamRe: Best Form Of Tawassul (intercession) - Using The Holy Prophet by lanrexlan(m): 10:17am On Nov 21, 2014
MrOlai: @Innocent Minds. For the innocent minds following d write-up of d OP Albaqir, he is a chronic shi'a!
And being a Shia, he should be crucified??
MrOlai: What he has said so far does not represent Islam but rather represents shi'ism! It is nothing but kufr (disbelieve)! He comes here to mislead & recruit naive minds for shi'ism!
Mister, the best you can do is to dismantle his claims with authentic proofs.Mislead? There aren't kids here, you are free to decide what you want to choose from and what not to choose from.

No point misleading anyone here, if you love Tawassul using the Prophet(pbuh) Alhamudulilah and if you don't subscribe to it that's your own cup of Garri.

MrOlai: I weep for d parents that gave birth to him - 4 wot he's going to cause them b4 Allah(SWT)!
Weep for yourself not his parents, AlBaqir is not a kid for goodness sake.

Fundamentalist:
what i think your problem is the fact that you think who i consider as a muslim is someone with a beard or a 3/4 trousers. that is a wrong concept, although it should among the dress code of a muslim male.
My problem? I never insinuate the above, what I simply said was that 'what comes to your mind when sufi is mentioned is 'sokoto sofe''.
It will be very foolish of one to think beard and jumping trousers is what qualifies a muslim.

fundamentalist: saying i dont know the meaning of innovation is a under statement as i did a thread on that on my username sheykul islam. thier are sufis who keep beards, keep thier trousers above the ankles, despise rosary(tesuba) but practice innovations and shirk in the name of islam. i dont see why i should like a sufi when he wages war on the sunnah and the basic principles of islams and worst of all spreading it to ignorant muslims
The problem now is for you to define what innovations are and what practices of the people you accused to sufism contradicting the sunnah.
