The US is overbearing. It continues with its age long policy of violating an independent countrys sovereignity. Let the city council effect the street change. It should not dictate who bears what. The RSA wouldn't dictate whose name is placed on a street in NY as well. By the time they realize how much they're losing in visa fees, the consulate will be reopened.

I’m shocked at those applauding the decision. How can you detect to another sovereign nation on how to act within the confines of their laws.

vertueptime:
Yes but u also have to deduct Ur obligations and debts before arriving at the final figure

What if the debt is more than the money at hand, does that mean no zakat?

No matter how tall you are, you will fit well inside it.

That’s not true, there is a documentary where Shak O’Neil couldn’t fit in.

chillychill:
You didnt say d most hilarious and obvious ones ..... can i cook for my boyfriend or "husband" (d husband na just live in baby daddy o without dowry being paid ni o)during Ramadan?

The issue is that most of us knows whats right or wrong we just want to hear it from other and then do what works for us after hearing d truth. This issue has been answered several times wen i hear dem asking again on radio today i just laff n waka pass.

You’d be shocked that some pple genuinely do not know. I’ve seen pple that come off or appear as learned Muslims, but when you strike a conversation you’d be shocked. I now noticed that there has been a continuous general decline in this our generation to seek Islamic knowledge. Especially as it relates to sending young ones to madarasa. We have them being mostly taught by yiktok mullahs

Bakrabas:
Can my fiance sleeps over in my house during Ramadan

Your fiance can not sleep over, wether it’s Ramadan or outside Ramadan. Avoid such situations at all cost.

The prophet (Pbuh) said: No man is alone with a woman but the third of them is ash-shaitan.

AbuAbdirrahmaan:
Ramadan brings many questions about fasting, prayer, and daily practices. Here are some common FAQs with their answers:

1️⃣ Do I need to make an intention for fasting every night?
Yes, for obligatory fasts, the intention should be made before Fajr. However, a general intention at the start of Ramadan is sufficient unless a fast is broken.

2️⃣ Can I taste food while fasting?
Yes, but only if necessary, and it should be spit out without swallowing.

3️⃣ Does swallowing phlegm break the fast?
No, unless it reaches the mouth and is swallowed intentionally.

4️⃣ Can I eat or drink while hearing the Fajr Adhan?
Yes, if the food or drink is already in hand, as per the hadith of the Prophet ﷺ.

5️⃣ When should I break my fast?
At sunset, not necessarily at the Adhan, as long as the sun has fully set.

6️⃣ What if water enters my throat unintentionally during rinsing?
It does not break the fast, as it was not intentional.

7️⃣ Can I use toothpaste while fasting?
Yes, but ensure nothing is swallowed.

8️⃣ Is fasting valid if I wake up in a state of major impurity?
Yes, fasting remains valid. Ghusl should be done to pray Fajr.

9️⃣ Can women take pills to delay menstruation for fasting?
Yes, if deemed safe by a medical professional.

🔟 Does silent Quran recitation (without moving the tongue) count?
No, true recitation requires moving the tongue.

1️⃣1️⃣ How should supplication (Dua) be made?
With humility, not excessive beautification of the voice.

1️⃣2️⃣ Can another congregation pray while Tarawih is ongoing?
No, separate congregations during Tarawih should be avoided.

1️⃣3️⃣ What does “praying with the Imam until he finishes” mean?
It means staying for the entire Tarawih and Witr, earning the reward of praying all night.

🤲 May Allah bless us in the remaining days of Ramadan and guide us to what pleases Him. Aameen!

A lambo just for fvck...........Your puna must be a Goldplated one I guess!!

It is in a man's character to want to scam a woman of her pvssay using the sweetest available resources.........For instance, on the other thread, Akpabio had wanted to use his luxurious and quality interior of his Uyo houses to lure Natasha into his Bed.........But Natasha having a great respect for herself was smart enough to smell a rat, knowing that Akpabio only want to scam her of her juicy pvssy..........Although na the matter we still dey try settle so!!

But you see this Brainless socialite Local Sefiya, she no think twice, just run go open pvssy waaaàaa hoping to get a lamborgini in return for fvck..............

It is in a "WEAK/SIMP" man's character to want to scam a woman of her pvssay using the sweetest available resources.

Real OGs dont move this way!

hypocrites coming for the girl, while failing to see how degenerate a man must be to offer to buy LAMBO TRUCK just for sex.

If you claim you are who you think you are, he suppose get that opoueh based on self-recognition!

He could have simply said there are others playing within that space that are publicly listed, instead of just diving in raw.

Dogalmighty17:
I can understand why Yahaya Bello excavated the road to her senatorial zone now. He wanted to save Nigerians from the unfortunate antics of this woman.

That doesn't take away the fact that Akpabio is as useless as the k in his name. This senate has no legacies.

That said, on what grounds did Berekete radio show call the Senate President while on air? That is a gross violation of protocol. I may not support Akpabio but he holds that office in trust for Nigerians and that office should not be disrespected by any means.

What nonsense disrespect? This is why these politicians act all and mighty!

The is a mere politician holding a political office elected by people like berekete fm, nothing special. Even you can call him!

BigboyOJ:
Go ask your Islamist brothers or Sdfu..

Why do you have so much hate in you.

What have I said wrong now that’s making you go off?

I only made an educated guess based on the nature of the attack and the fact that they didn’t release the name on time, which is usually so when the perpetrator isn’t of Muslim faith. And I was proved right.

Do you leave in a silo?
Do you have any Muslims around you?
How do you relate with them?

Samunique:
Heh brother, you won't blame people, blame Muslims and Islam. You brought it upon yourselves and your Islamic teachers are also not helping matter.

You people are too violent....

Why do you have so much hate in you?
Do you think that Jesus would react the way you have done now?

I always ask myself, what would Jesus do/say/act.

hmmm

BigboyOJ:
Just like you I have no dog in the fight but I only got interested in this conflict because of the incredible hatred and vitriol directed at the Jews after all they have been through almost throughout history.. it's not about being a Christian because Jews are not even Christians in the first place.

Just like you I sought to know the real history of both Israel and the Arabs now called Palestinians and also the disputed land with a clear sound mind without outside influence and I came to the conclusion that Israel has the stronger claim to the land than the Arabs.

This informations are easily gotten on Google and YouTube and not Aljazeera or BBC that are clearly biased.so do a bit of research on your own and you will see how weak the Palestinian claim to the land is.

It's very refreshing you want justice and against injustices but you have to know the nitty gritty of the problem before you can come to that point.

The Jews claim of Judea is not just religious but historical as well and as been proven beyond reasonable doubt, every archaeological find throughout the land has turned up Jewish artifacts.

Don't let the name Palestine deceive you,the land was originally named land of Israel or Judea(coined from Jew) but was renamed Syria and Palestina by the Roman emperor Hadrian after quelling a violent Jewish rebellion and the term Palestinians refered to everyone living in the then British mandate for Palestine.
It wasn't a separate ethnic group or nationality as it is today but refered to Jews, Arabs, Bedouins, Christians, Muslims etc.

The name was later stolen by Yasser Arafat and co under the KGB's advice to mean Arabs.

It is not the ancestral home of any Arab talkless of Palestinians,Arabs are not indigenous to the land but only started migrating to the area from Arabia and North Africa after it was conquered by Islamic armies and the ottoman empire..

There's no denying the fact that Arabs have also been lived long in the area from the time of the ottoman empire period as result they too have a modicum of rights to the land that's why Israels population is about 20% (about 2m) Arab.the ones that stayed behind and didn't join or take sides with invading Arab armies and militias are now citizens with equal rights with Jews in Israel and would not want to be anywhere else in the Middle East because of the rights and quality of life they enjoy in Israel.

The then original British mandate for Palestine was supposed to be divided into an Arab and a Jewish state but the Brits went ahead to create the hashemit kingdom of Jordan out of the land, still the Jews had no problem with anyone when it was agreed it would be further divided into a Jewish and Arab states the Jews still agreed but the Arabs blatantly refused and the very next day the mandate ended and Israel declared it's independence Arab countries and militias invaded Israel with the goal of exterminating the Jews but were dealt a heavy demoralizing defeat and by the end of the war Israel had gotten more land than it had from the mandate.

You lose land and territory when you start and lose a war that's how it is.israel got Judea and Samaria (now fancifully called West Bank) from Jordan,got the Golan heights from Syria and the Sinai desert and Gaza strip from Egypt after those wars.

Israel gave back the Sinai desert and wanted to give back Gaza to Egypt but Egypt vehemently refused taking back Gaza and it almost derailed the agreement and that was how Israel got stuck with Gaza.

What stoped the Arabs from declaring their own nation after Israel did in 1948? Because they wanted the whole land and not just part of it and would have gotten it had their genocidal war succeeded.Their leaders have also refused on more than 6 occasions attempts at settling the conflicts.

Do you know before this current war in Gaza triggered by Hamas cross border attacks on Israel in October 7 Israel had unilaterally withdrawn from Gaza in 2005.
They had the opportunity of turning Gaza into the Rivera of the middle east with all the aids and donations coming into Gaza but they instead used it procure rockets and build tunnels all over Gaza.
Yet Hamas attacked Israel knowing full well that they were going to be hit hard as rightly expected.

There were thriving Jewish communities in nearby Islamic countries and North Africa before 1948 before they were ethnically clinsed and evicted losing all they had worked for (Jewish nakba) but there's virtually non again in those areas while the population of Arabs in Israel and environs had drastically increased,now tell me who genocided who?

Just do a bit of undiluted unbiased research on your own and you would know the truth and see how the Palestinian claims fall apart like a pack of cards..

Ask me further questions and I'll answer them.

I appreciate the fact that you took time to take me up on this challenge, to have a meanful discuss. I also appreciate the perspectives you have brought to this issue. I must admit that this is a very complicated topic with a long history, but your argument contains a number of misleading claims and omissions.

I will break it down. First is the history and ownership of the land.

The land we’re talking about, what is now Israel and/or Palestine, has been home to many different people for thousands of years, including Canaanites, Hebrews, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, and Ottomans. Nations and borders change over time, but one thing remains true: people who have lived in a place for generations naturally see it as their homeland.

You can argue that Jews have the strongest claim to the land because of ancient history. But the same logic applies to the Palestinians, who have lived there continuously for centuries. Saying that Palestinians are not a “real people” ignores the fact that national identities evolve. By that logic, Israelis didn’t exist before 1948 either, since “Israelis” as a nationality is a modern concept.

Secondly, you mentioned about the Nakba. In 1947, the United Nations proposed a partition plan, giving 56% of the land to Jewish settlers, even though they made up only about 33% of the population. Palestinians rejected it, not because they hated Jews, but because it felt unfair. Imagine if a foreign power came and handed over half of Southern Nigeria to Fulani herders to prevent farmers-herders comflict, just because these herders claim that southern Nigeria has always been part of their grazing route. you’d probably be upset too.

Then came the 1948 war, during which 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly displaced from their homes. This event, known as the Nakba ("catastrophe", was not just a case of "losing a war". Zionist militias carried out massacres and destroyed villages to ensure that these refugees could never return. This isn’t speculation; Israeli historians, including Benny Morris and Ilan Pappé, have documented it extensively.

Furthermore, losing land in War doesn’t Justify OPPRESSION. Some people argue that when you lose a war, you lose land- end of story. But international law doesn’t work that way. If it did, should Germany still be under Allied control after WWII? Should colonial empires still exist? The UN and international courts have repeatedly ruled that land cannot be taken through war.

Yet, Israel has continued to expand, settling Jewish citizens in Palestinian territories in violation of UN Resolution 242. These aren’t just empty lands, people already lived there, and now they are being forced out.

Now to the crux of the discussion- the reality of Gaza and the West Bank.
Many say, “Why don’t Palestinians build Gaza into something great?” The truth is, they can’t, because Israel has enforced a strict blockade since 2005, controlling everything that enters or leaves- including food, medicine, and electricity. Gaza’s economy can’t grow when its borders are sealed.

Meanwhile, in the West Bank, Palestinians live under military occupation, while Israeli settlers live under Israeli civil law. That means two people, living in the same land, have completely different rights based on ethnicity. If that’s not APATHEID, what is?

This is my own personal opinion. Shouldn’t Jews, of All People, Understand This?
Jewish people have suffered immense persecution throughout history, especially in the Holocaust. That’s why it’s heartbreaking to see Israel engaging in policies that look very similar to what was once done to them- forced displacement, segregation, and collective punishment.

This isn’t about denying Israel’s right to exist. It’s about recognizing that Palestinians also have a right to live with dignity and freedom in their homeland.

If we condemned apartheid in South Africa, how can we turn a blind eye to it in Palestine?

Finally, this conflict isn’t just about history, it’s about what’s happening right now. If we truly care about justice, we should be advocating for equal rights for both Jews and Palestinians. It’s not about choosing a side; it’s about choosing fairness.

So, let’s ask ourselves: Do we support Palestinians having the same rights and freedoms as Israelis? If not, why?

mu2sa2:
Hang on a minute - they may still come up with the usual story he converted to Islam, or visited an al-Qaeda linked website some months ago. If the Syrian orthodox Christian killed in the attack were a Muslim, they would have found a way to link him with this attack. Hypocrites!

It’s weird they even have to mention the religion of one specific person that was killed.

What about others killed, does their faith not matter?

I remember being insulted here when I said the shooter was most likely not a Muslim on the other thread.

Why is there so much hate in the world?
Why can’t we all just get along?

BigboyOJ:
You can find your way to Judea (Palestine) and join the so called resistance if e really pain you.
Keyboard warrior 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Can we have a discussion then like people with actual functioning brains?

What happened to Judea?
Why is this currently the ancestral home of Palestinians?
How long has the Palestinians people been there?
Finally. Do the Palestinians have ancestral claims to Judea in your opinion?

Ps- I’m not emotional about these events.
I don’t not have a bone in this fight.

I only speak for injustice. because what’s been done to the Palestinians was what Hitler did to the Jews and the whole world frown on it.

If your only argument is based on religion, my question is put yourself in the shoes of these people, do you think Good will allow this to continue happening?

Naturalgbola:
I don't have time to alaye, gaza is already in ruins.

You don’t have time or you can’t engage in a meaningful dialogue. You just spew rubbish without any evidence to back your claim.

How does it being in ruins justify a complete takeover.

How can 1944 be repeating itself in this modern world and we all cower in fear?

Naturalgbola:
gaza belongs to the israelites.

How did they lose it in the first place, do you care to share?

Sirmwill:
Why did the Palestinians support Hamas to go and kill innocent Israelis in the first instance??

Those people are humans.

Innocent Israelis died that day.People lost their loved ones
😔






The Palestine people embraced evil also.They wanted to take over Israel.They have that Archaic Animalistic mindset.Now,it has backfired on them. 😑





I don't see Trump giving in to all this rejections from all these countries.
He would only make the Gaza strip non habitable forever. 😕





Tho I feel for the innocent Palestine people and their families.
But if those Muslim countries see them as brothers,they should take them in for crying out loud! 😐

Or,Saudi Arabia and Iran are scared of Hamas that they funded?

I have a lot to say but let me say this first, if you have a functioning brain, you'd know that the issues didn't start on oct 7th.

secondly, i blame hamas for this, because you dont go into a war that you know you cant win. So dont even come up with antics that i sympathize with hamas.

finally, how can we all condemn Hitler for trying to exterminate jews by ethnically cleanse them out of Germany but in the same breath support the current displacement of Palestinians from their land. (weather you like it or not its theirs, that's how land works, ownership changes hands over time, so do not bring any religious sentiments here)

U don't know anything. I can bet anything that it was a Muslim that did the attack

how many of the mass shootings in the west was done by muslims?

There is nothing covert about USAID.

Its operation has always been about US foreign influence or
why did you think billions would be awarded every year?

Russia is currently signing nuclear power deals across Africa, the aim
is the same. Build as much influence as possible.

do you work for USAID, better start finding another job, its no longer business as usual.

Xisnin:
USAID was established to boost US's global influence but Trump is too dumb to know.
He thinks it is free money to other countries.

It’s a CIA covert operation to undermine sovereign nations. 90% of USAID funds are channeled to further US agenda.

givedemwotowoto:
They will actually get the money. Most people at his professional level have insurance policies worth millions so the family will be fine

Depends, suicide is usually not included in such claim. Pple could exploit this so their family can have a good payday.

This is same as murder. It will be difficult to get the insurance to pay, because you’d have to prove that the family has no hands in the killing to cash out.

Shht happens.

Normally
Traditional rulers should come first B4 any other form of government
Traditional rules has been existing before the British came to Africa

The white got no traditions dts why dey behave like scavengers

I will always maintain that these traditional rulers have outlived their usefulness.

The British deliberately undermined the institutions and our politicians made it easy for them to be more useless.

Today monarchy in the British is still recognized and no govt can influence their throne.

The question now is, do we still keep them or scrap them altogether?

If we keep them, how do we ensure that they’re independent of govt influence?

Stop saying what you don’t know with authority. They were not charged under sharia law.

Penal code does not automatically translate to sharia law, Abuja does not have sharia law.
