ummsulaym: I don't know if this has been asked/answered before because I can't scroll up to find out(bear with me.)

Overview;
I've heard people say ''when I wake up in the morning, I pray(salat) before greeting anyone.'' I don't know if it's their desire to just make it so since fajr is early enough such that everyone's business will still be confined within the room(except the males who go to the masjid) till after fajr before we meet,then greetings exchanged... It's become so,so normal that I wonder if any islamic text has made it so. I find myself practicing this with all seriousness too(sometimes,I dulge my parents for this if I haven't prayed fajr)... I've been doing that till this morning when after waking up,I decided not to go back to bed since it was few minutes to 5 and soon, time for fajr but I don't know how I ended up sleeping and fajr was slipping. My mum came to my room and said ''Aren't you going for karatu(which is by 6:30)? Wake up and pray if you haven't because time is almost gone(it was pass 6).'' I stood up, looking at her and couldn't say 'goodmorning' cuz I haven't prayed fajr(she left though, without noticing.)

Now you get the full gist and hence,my question;
What does Islam(Qur'an and Hadith) says about this cuz I don't know why I am doing that?

#Thanks

It's an habit that has become an integral of you.I haven't come across any verse of the Quran nor any sayings of our beloved prophet Muhammad(pbuh) that says you must offered Fajr solat before greeting people.It's just a choice you've made which has become part of you and to me,there's nothing wrong with it.But don't dodge your parents when you clash with them sometimes,greet them even when you haven't offer Fajr because if you keep dodging them and it becomes too often,they may think you are being rude not knowing it's just a practice that has become part of you.
So,you can keep to your practice but seriously I'm hearing this for the first time and always greet your parents even when you haven't offer Fajr solat.
#just saying.Salam alaikum.

Divepen: I did not invite you,sir, to pray...I invited christains....

Stop praying for us,we don't wanna believe 1+1+1=1[When we aren't using bolean algebra ].We follow the true guidance from our creator,worshipping none but Him.Allah says in the glorious Quran in Al-Imran 3:69 -A party of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish to lead you astray.But they shall not lead astray anyone except themselves,and they perceive not.You wish to lead us astray by praying for us to become cross worshippers,but Allah says you will lead none astray but yourselves and you perceive not.Moreover,Allah has promised not to lead astray a people after he had guided them as He says in the glorious Quran in

Surah At-Taubah 9:115 -And Allâh will never lead a people astray after He has guided them until He makes clear to them as to what they should avoid.Verily,Allâh is the All-Knower of everything..Pray for yourselves,all those multiple doctrines in different churches should come to an end,stop wasting your time with muslims.

Day7: prayer for ,ourself...

Please join me as we have to stop fghting them and tackle this spiritually...they are our brothers and we cannot watch them go to hell

Please,pray and fast for yourselves.Christianity needs the prayer the most.Allah says in the glorious Quran in Surah Al-Baqarah 2:111 -And they say,None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian.These are their own desires.Say [O Muhammad(pbuh)]Produce your proof if you are truthful.

Surah Al-Baqarah 2:135 -And they say,Be Jews or Christians,then you will be guided." Say [to them,O Muhammad(pbuh)] Nay,(We follow) only the religion of Ibrahim (Abraham), Hanifa [Islamic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allah (Alone)],and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (those who worshipped others along with Allah).Stop inviting us to worship a man,we worship the creator of heavens and earth.....Peace

According to the bible,god's name is Jealous.
Exodus 34:14 (KJV) -For thou shalt worship no other god:for the LORD,whose name is Jealous,is a jealous God.

Ajibam: @op...
being a Bible student doesn't makes you to understand the Bible..

the way you viewed it is just like you don't believe what's written in it..

pray for the holy spirit and reread it...

This is rubbish,both verses contradicted each other,why don't you explain those verses and stop beating around the bush? The question of the Op is:How did Judas Iscariot died? Hanged himself or fell headlong? Mr 'filled with holy spirit'.

Ask google

Dizney: Must you always have a crush on someone, i have warned you that i don wanna have this conversation again. And for the record...i know how i deal with you. Yo! All ye bros, when you are meeting nairalanders in school, and you get to meet factorial, pls dnt let him meet your CARO o!

Stop it joor,Factorial is a gentle boy!!! He doesn't even know what caro means.Abi factorial?

Sissie: Salam, I know the wool you are talking about.

And I have read two different views about it
1. The first views says it's ok, since it is not hair that's been used.
2. The second view says anything used as an ATTACHMENT to the hair is not allowed.

Thanks for the clarification ma,Jazakumullah Khairan.

babylolaroy: do yu think he'll understand?...why wud yu even say peace unto him?...he shudnt be a beneficiary of it since he doesnt believe muslims send peace. i wonder weda the everyday salam alaykum is a joke to his ears

I'm just following the words of Allah my sister.Allah says in the glorious Quran in
Surah Al-Furqan 25:63 -And the slaves of the Most Beneficent (Allah) are those who walk on the earth in humility and sedateness, and when the foolish address them,they reply back with mild words of gentleness(Peace).They are followers of Paul,so they greet with a holy kiss.

Fulaman198: Can we please stop the back and forth stabs from Islam and Christianity? Let everyone be free to their own beliefs.

Ok bro,because of you I give up on him.Thanks

talk2me006: i dont know why these people always feel angry when they see someone just convert to islam.
just askin ni ooo.

Because another lost sheep just found the light of true guidance and no more paying of tithe.Bro,it's been a while.

peteregwu: after all their were others dead, but he chose to resurrect Lazarus because Lazarus was his friend. so, my ignorant friend, thank God you quoted that Jesus resurrected Lazarus. so my Jesus can resurrected the dead. but is not what you expect me to start going to murtuaries, that will be foolishness. even peter in the bible prayed and a dead woman came baco to life. but he never because of it went to the mortuaries.

the impression is that Jesus can resurrect the dead,so long it us his will. I could remember a woman n my church that came in with hardware baby, in the course of prayer,the baby came back to life.

Jesus resurrected Lazarus through God's permission and not by himself.

John 5:30 (KJV) -I can of mine own self do nothing:as I hear,I judge and my judgment is just;because I seek not mine own will,but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
Is there software baby? Your neighbor's child wasn't taken to the mortuary,you ought to do it na.

all these miracle can't happen in the mosque. what thdu is to ne washing their legs and feet hoping that water will wash away their sins, impossible.

Who told this one that washing of feet wash away sins? Nowhere in the Quran does it states that ablution is for washing away of sins.Ablution is for purity and mercy from Allah(swt).Unfortunately,baptism occupies the washing away of sins.
Luke 3:3 (NIV) -He went into all the country around the Jordan,preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins..Then,'Jesus' himself was baptized in river Jordan to wash away his sins[Matthew 3:13-16].

this morning I went to my neighbours house whose child died. I told her why didn't you tell me in the morning that your child died immediately it happened,she said she was confused and didnt know what to do. I so much felt bad in her state of despondency.oh,how i pray that you Muslims will understand what you are missing.

You ought to open the grave of that child and resurrect him,and you will see his parents will accept your religion.
We are missing your false healing and miracles,that's brilliant.Allah says in the glorious Quran in Surah Fussilat 41:53 -We will show them Our Signs in the universe,and in their ownselves,until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Quran) is the truth.Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things?.Allah keeps showing you his signs but you are deaf,blind and dumb you will never return to the right path.....Peace

peteregwu: you are full of ignorance. Jesus never visited murtuaries. you call that ranting, no it's not! it is faith in Christ Jesus. that is what your dead religion can't get and a prove that your so called Islamic god is not alive.

Stop crying,'Jesus' visited mortuary.Eat this.
John 11:17-19 (NIV) -On his arrival,Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother..This is Lazarus already in the tomb for four days,even buried and Jesus raised him up.You should have done the same with your neighbor's child,the child was dead for few hours and you can't resurrect him,shame on you and they are many fresh dead christians in mortuaires that you can resurrect,so stop lamenting here

baebyfaze91: Hello guyz,i wish evry1 a hapy new month
Anyways God wil help ya'al wit d list.......
Unibadan has offered me admissn 4 Pharmacy.... so Bye-gone to FUTA
Gotta be dere on ur matric abi naw lanrex

Yeah,If Allah wills.

peteregwu: my friend, I am not resurrecting any child. it is God that will do it. what i said was that I would pray and not me doing the mirvale but God.

am not an unbeliever. I am believer in Christ Jesus. I am chosen. I have seen a woman whose child, and when she rushed to our church (the lords chosen church) with the dead baby, in the course of prAyer from the general overseer of the church, the child sneezed and came back to life.

so, what are you talking about? in the case of my neighbour God could have done the same thing in other for them also to believe that their is power in The lord Jesus. have you been reading some of the testimonies I have been posting here on nairaland coming out from our church. do you think am that kind of a Christian that does not know the God he is serving. the Jesus i know is tye one in the bible and alive forever, who did signs and wonders and still at work doing it. check out the testimonies at www.thelordschosenworld.org

today in fellowship, a woman who has been carrying a womb for 12yrs with a lifeless child received deliverance and the baby started kicking. am not talking about any church, am talking about the lords chosen.

my friend their is power in the lord Jesus!

Stop ranting please,we have heard you.Kindly visit mortuaires to resurrect people in christ name,you are Lord chosen member? No wonder sha.

De Beauvoir: lol
Conscience

Did I say you discriminated or that Islam discriminates?

What's the meaning of sexism then?

jumzzy448: Can you please google this topic and come back with your reply. Tnx

I have answered your op,are you talking about the use of wool for knitting sis?

De Beauvoir: islam and sexism......

I never discriminated nor does Islam discriminates men from women,so I don't know where you got that idea.

De Beauvoir: And by the way how does this statement have anything to do with my gender?

You were wondering how I drew my conclusion so you decided to find out if I am male or female because? What difference would my sex make to whatever you were wondering?

Never mind

tintingz: She's a female, one of the feminist captain on NL

Thought as much,bro tintingz's friend

jumzzy448: I mean wools that are used for knitting. When u use it, it also lengthens the hair. So will like to know if it's allowed.

Anything that increases the length of one's natural hair is not allowed.

WHξξ∟s:

christians with funny themes in their pamphlets. No more shit!!!!!

De Beauvoir: My gender is inconsequential to the topic of this discussion.

Just wondering how you concluded that first part of my post didn't talk about the world,even when it talked about males having the risk of dying both in childhood and adulthood.Did you see that?

De Beauvoir: It didn't.

Are you a male or a female please?

tintingz: Yes, she should have converted when her father was still alive...but since she said she has interest in islam when she was a christian, I thank God for her that she's now a muslimah

She may conceive a fear of her dad na,Alhamudulilah she's now a muslim

ummsulaym: I know it's best to avoid any form of attachments due to its ambiguities but what is this 'small black threads' so that I can recomment it(if @ all i have to) to my friends who find it difficult going with natural hair?
Jazakallahu khayr

**scratching my head**.How will I describe it self? They are small threads used by women that have a low cut hair.It doesn't lengthens the hair,just for binding sha.If I have the pics I will post it Insha Allah. Wa Iyyakum

De Beauvoir: I didn't skip anything.
The part of your post where you quoted above is the only place that talks about world population generally.
The other part talks about France, let me bring the rest of your post to show you what I mean;


This part of your post is saying that although the number of men outnumbers women initially, the sex ration evens out eventually.
And in France, the age where this happens is at 25 years of age.
And also in France, beyond that age, women outnumber men up until they get to age 100 where there are 8 women to one man.
In France.

Does the first part of my post talked about women outnnumbering men? I just need a simple yes or no.

peteregwu: THISS MUSLIMS LIKE TO ARGUE MUCH ABOUT JESUS AND THE BIBLE. THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEIR SO CALLED RELIGION. BECAUSE ISLAM IS A DEAD RELGION, MORE LIKE A GRAVE YARD. NOTHING TO SHOW, NO POWER, NO DELIVERANCE,MIRAFLE OR WHATSOEVER. HMMM..AND THEY ARE STILL TALKING.

TODAYS MORNING, ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS CHILD DIED. JUST ABOUT 5MONTHS OLD, SHE NEVER TOLD ME. IF SHE HEARD TOLD ME IN THE MORNING WHEN THE DEAD CHILD WAS STILL IN THE HOUSE, THEN I WOULD HAVE PRAYED IN THE NAME OF JESUS AND THE CHILD WOULD HAVE BEEN RESURRECTED. IT WAS WHEN I CAME BACK FROM CHURCH I WAS TOLD. I WAS SO FURIOUS AND ANGRY WITH THEM.

YOU CAN SEE THAT THEIR RELIGION IS HOPELESS AND WITHOUT POWER. JUST KIKE THAT, THEY BURIED THEIR THAT POOR BABY.

Are you high on something? You wanna resurrect the child?Lwkmd,Let me advise you,there are many christians dying in hospitals and many in mortuaires why don't you kindly visit those places and resurrect and heal those people? We know all those tricks you christians are using,Sheik Yusuf Olatunji once debated a pastor and the pastor promised to make the lame walk.The Sheik looked for a real lame man,not those planned works and guess what the pastor was just sweating when trying to perform the so called miracle.Nothing happened,the man was never healed.No miracles happened when Bonnke came to Ibadan,a devoted christian I know went there with his disabled son and no miracle took place.So stop fooling yourselves with these planned miracles which you can't perform in hospitals for your christians brothers.....Peace

De Beauvoir: First of all, you quoted a French website and the part in bold is referring to the changes in the sex ratios in france only , not the population ratio changes the world over.

Secondly, the website you quote mined looks fishy. I don't believe it contains credible information because that part of your post about the number of women outnumbering men does not apply to every country in the world, I doubt it even applies to any other country except france. In China for instance, the population of men outnumbers women greatly and it never evens out. It is constantly the same.

Do you knowingly skipped this?

lanrexlan: The number of men and women in the WORLD is roughly equal,though men hold a slight lead with 102 men for 100 women (in 2010).More precisely,out of 1,000 people,504 are men (50.4%) and 496 are women (49.6%).For every 100 girls,107 boys are born,but males have a higher risk of dying than females,both in childhood and at adult ages

Hmmm?

De Beauvoir: By the way there are not more females than males in the world, please please please, for the sake of Allah, you people should stop spreading misinformation because you want to justify your islamic practices.
The other day one of them was telling lies about how girls in the past used to attain puberty earlier than girls these days just because he wanted to justify child marriage, now they have taken to telling lies about the ratio of males to females.

Proof that the ratio of men to women is the same:
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/xx.html

From CIA world factbook:

Sex ratio:
at birth: 1.07 male(s)/female
0-14 years: 1.07 male(s)/female
15-24 years: 1.06 male(s)/female
25-54 years: 1.02 male(s)/female
55-64 years: 0.96 male(s)/female
65 years and over: 0.8 male(s)/female
total population: 1.01 male(s)/female (2013 est.)

World population
Question: Are there more men or more women in the world?
Answer
The number of men and women in the world is roughly equal,though men hold a slight lead with 102 men for 100 women (in 2010). More precisely,out of 1,000 people,504 are men (50.4%) and 496 are women (49.6%). For every 100 girls, 107 boys are born,but males have a higher risk of dying than females,both in childhood and at adult ages.
So at a certain age, the numbers of men and women even out. In France this occurs at age 25 (in 2010).Beyond this age, women outnumber men and the numerical difference between the two sexes increases with age.In France,eight centenarians in ten are women (in 2010).

jumzzy448: @ lanrexlan, tnx so much. But what I read on google was, only human hair is haram though not all scholars are in support of it.
Also, does it now mean that even wool is haram?

Do women use wool as attachments? I know about using wool in textile industries.Anything used maybe from animals or artificially gotten which lengthens the hair is forbidden.But those small black threads used by some women to make their hair aren't forbidden and Allah knows best.
