if "Biafrans" believe they have the potential of being greater than they are in Nigeria, I would suggest let them go.

The amount of energy being expended on keeping them should be spent on something more progressive.

This hate game is getting too much and its gaining momentum. Our children must not meet it. The north is ready, the sourh west is ever ready and the east is yearning to go. IPOB youths are kegs of gun powder. Let them go. it will be a good riddance, eventually.

Can I apply for both university,i thought it was not possible

Things may have changed. In that case, I would advise not to risk UI o. What state university did you apply to?

based on last year modality your score is as follows:

(24/30)*50 + 326/8 = 80.75

last year's cut off was 76.76 probably the highest in the nation. Now, there is an upsurge in the number of applicants this year so there may be an increase.

I know of a guy that was admitted to study Medicine in UI despite making it the second choice. His first choice was OAU. Of course, he was admitted in both schools but, naturally, he preferred UI (who wouldn't?). I don't know if UI still does this though.

My advice is, don't change your first choice to UI but when they call for post utme screening just go through the process. if you make the merit list, let us hope that you will be admitted.

I have a seven year old boy. I can imagine how vulnerable this little angel was. I can not resist the tears from flowing down my cheek on the account of this gruesome murder of an innocent boy by his own father.

Blood for blood. So says the law of our land.

There is more to shecow than meets the eyes. I don't think he is even in Nigeria if at all he is alive.

We will miss you Dr. Adeshina Adesanya aka Pastor Ajidara. I really loved the way you interpreted your roles. Sleep well.

RIP

You see a land infested by squirrel and you still went ahead to plant groundnut there. Who doesn't know that the squirrel will eat its own before the farmer comes. You enter the river yourself and you are complaining of cold.

This is my judgement.
The man is a fool.

Wow......such a nice piece on medicine and turmoil experience....

am also a newly admitted student to study medicine ....Pls wat ur advise for me.....

because of ppl are scaring me oooo..

Just know that you have to reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaddddddddd like maaaaaaaaaaad.

Dazol.

Am I the only one that thinks this whole assassination attempt is an "arrangee"? The guy used his own legs to walk to the police station to confess. Ah Dino, there is God oooooo.

To me, Dino looks like someone that can go to any length to do anything he wants. He had already mentioned the Chairman and the state Governor as his suspects. The police should investigate thoroughly I beg.

issoke. We are here watching in 8 dimension.

RIP

it wasn't only the students that failed, the lecturers failed too. The Deans are wicked to accept that type of result. Even it is not this bad in OAU.

I always tell medicine hopefuls to make wise choice in school selection. Choose a school with a higher pass rate in 2nd Mb. I can bet those guys are not average students. They are far above average to make it to part 3. But they went to the wrong school.

Since he has tried with other girls with the same result then the sperm is definitely defective.

The guy is fertile but his sperm cells may have an abnormal chromosome which may either be numerical or structural. The reason for this may be congenital or an acquired mutation in the germ cells which may be due to exposure to certain radiations at a lethal dose or some other genotoxic agents like drugs, inflection e.t.c.

Our friend's sperm cells can fertilize an egg but in the course of cell differentiation and development of the ensuing embryo, it is discovered that the DNA of the embryo is abnormal and is incompatible with life and an auto abortion command is executed.

He should seek medical intervention. His sperm cells need to be karyotyped so the defect can be isolated and a well informed decision will be taken as regards treatment.

He is able to score but his goals are being disqualified. He needs to do something fast.

Empiree:
As for the idea that using masbaha is imitating kuffar is false. Masbaha was known those times. I dont even know why i am even involved in this. Even without daleel (proof), common sense says it all. There is no difference btw using masbaha and microphone for adhan. Both are not act of worship. So why condemn masbaha but they have no problem using mic to proclaim adhan? Another double standard right?

Anyways, it is very important to look into narrations in details when nabi(SAW) reproached something and when he is silent or approved the same thing in another narration. This is fiqh issue which means opinion varies widely on it. But to tag it bida'h is off. I use my fingers for small counts and i use tesuba when it is convenient for me.


This Is Question Asked By Someone WHo Think masbaha is Copied from Kuffar


Evidence about prayer-beads in Islam

It has been suggested by orientalists and by some Muslims reiterating their arguments that the use of prayer beads started in Hinduism and was carried over into Buddhism.

At the time of the Arab expansion, Afghanistan and western Persia were primarily Buddhist. The mystics of Islam and the mystics of Buddhism of course recognized each other, and thus the notion of counting prayers on a string of beads made its way westwards. The Christians got them from the "Saracens" (Turks, mostly) during the Crusades. However this view of the origin of the tasbih is incorrect:



Allah says in His Holy Book to His Holy Prophet, "Remind people, for reminding benefits them." The reminder of Muslims has various forms, public and private. A public form of this reminder is the adhan. The masbaha or subha or tasbih, or rosary, or prayer-beads, has had since the earliest companions the function of a private reminder. It is for that reason that the tasbih was called by them mudhakkira, "reminder."

The statement, often heard today, that counting dhikr on beads is an innovation, is mistaken. The use of beads for counting dhikr is a sunna attested by the sahih hadith of Saad ibn Abi Waqqas, who related that the Prophet, Peace be upon him, once saw a woman using some date stones or pebbles (nawan aw hasan), and did not prohibit her to use them. This hadith is found in Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, Nisa'i, Ibn Maja, Ibn Hibban, and Hakim. Dhahabi declared it sahih. Another sahih hadith to that effect was related by Safiyya, who was seen by the Prophet, Peace be upon him, counting "Subhan Allah" on four thousand date stones. This hadith is found in Tirmidhi, Hakim, and Tabarani, and was confirmed by Suyuti.

The Indian hadith scholar Zakariyya al-Khandlawi relates in his book "Stories of the Sahaba" that Abu Hurayrah said: "I recite istighfar (formula of asking forgiveness) 12,000 times daily" and that, according to his grandson, he had a piece of thread with 1,000 knots (or 2,000) and would not go to sleep until he had said Subhan Allah (Glory to God)on all of these knots. According to her granddaughter through Imam Hussayn, Sittna Fatima also used to count her dhikr on a thread with knots.

Mawlana Zakariyya continues, "It is well-known that many other companions of the Prophet, Peace be upon him, used beads in their private devotions, such as Saad ibn Abi Waqqas himself, Abu Safiah the slave of the Prophet, Abu Sa`d, Abu Darda', and Sittna Fatima, May Allah be pleased with them all. Stringing or not stringing the beads together does not make any difference."



It is also well-established that counting dhikr is a sunna of the Prophet, Peace be upon him. He himself advised his wives, Sayyidna cAli, and Sittna Fatima to count tasbih (subhan Allah), tahmid (al-hamdu lillah), and takbir (Allahu akbar) thirty-three times each before going to bed at night. Ibn `Amr relates that he saw the Prophet, Peace be upon him, count the times he said "Subhan Allah" on his hand.

Imam Suyuti recounted in one of his fatwas entitled "al-minha fi al-sibha" (The Profit Derived From Using a Rosary) the story of Ikrima, who asked his teacher `Umar al-Maliki about the rosary. `Umar answered him that he had also asked his teacher Hasan al-Basri about it and was told: "Something we have used at the beginning we are not desirous to leave at the end. I love to remember Allah with my heart, my hand, and my tongue." Suyuti comments: "And how should it be otherwise, when the rosary reminds one of Allah Most High, and a person seldom sees a rosary except he remembers Allah, which is among the greatest of its benefits. “The idea that the sibha comes from Buddhism or Christianity was one of the Hungarian scholar Ignaz Goldziher's (fl. 1897) legacies to orientalism.

Blessings and Peace on the Prophet, his Family, and his Companions

Jazakumullahu khairan. May Allah increase you in knowledge. In fact, you took that microphone comparison from my mouth.
Tagging use of tesuba as bid'a is too extreme. Perhaps they do not understand the meaning of bid'a.

This is applicable to many other things they tag bid'a thus making our religion more confusing, complex and confounded.

One of them was arguing with me about darood. He said dong it "too much" is bid'a. What I know is they are suffering from confusion secondary to hypertoxicity of overdose of their so called "knowledge".:

Nay, the religion of Allah is a straight one.
How many tarowih did the holy prophet observe? None for your info. Is that one bid'a too.

Bid'a is a very complex topic.
I have a question about using counting rosary (tesuba) being classified a bid'a because the holy prophet (saw) did not use it. Can someone please shed more light on this? The reason why I am confused is that tesbih itself is not part of solat. So why should using the rosary to do tesbih be called bid'a. please help explain.

How did we get here? Things have so much degenerated.

The doctor that jumped on the 3rd mainland bridge and the social media coverage, I think, is a promoting factor for this.

When there is life, their is hope. Only the deranged and cowards commit suicide. Take it by the horn and keep fighting and die fighting.

"When chameleon died, he died an honorable death." .....Overanwen Nogbaisi.
It is not over until it is over.

abeg make we free this guy jare. He has shown us that anything is possible in Nigeria.

For example, you can get a whole vice chancellor to lie that you graduated even if your name is absent in the convocation list and the alumni database.

I always tell people to do anything that makes them happy so far it does not make other people unhappy. Sometimes one has to unhook oneself from the shackles of religion to do this. Suicide is never an option.

Abi he wanted to take a pee and slipped ni. Even as a medical student I know about depression and how to handle it. How much more of a medical doctor that stands in the position to treat patients suffering from it. Something in me does not align with the suicide theory.

congrats bro

congrats bro

Its not about your course. The story is same for all courses in Nigeria today. Just try and equip yourself with a relevant skill and you will be grateful.

I wish you best of luck.

Two great men. Their names will be indelibly written in the history of Nigeria.

;DFinally, Jesus has come.
ntooor, all of you wey de doubt his second coming.
Let come and go and start preparing for rapture ojare. Na to withdraw all my money for bank and flenjor like meeed.

eh, that IBO woman wey de sell isiewu for next street don return from omugwo so? why, I need to finish this money before I fly to heaven with Jesus o.

issokay, this is for babes only o. Less I forget only fine girls o. PM me your pix and account numbers. i need to finish the money se. Remember, fine babes only.

can you imagine boda Femi and anti Kemi together as husband and wife? they will make a very nice couple.

I wish her success.

Happy birthday.

I hope this guy does not end up regretting because hoodlums may hijack the protest for their sinister acts, people may die and he may end up with treasonable felony on his lap. He is looking for cheap popularity and I can only pray that he doesn't bite more than he can chew.

You should stop defending Allah (swt). He has power over all things. He is the most merciful and oft returning. Also He is very severe in punishment.

If He chooses to punish Kayode for this blasphemy against Him, even the whole America, cannot save him and if He chooses to forgive him all the rage of the Muslims all over the world can not harm him.

You should learn to ignore some things. By throwing tantrums every time they insult your religion or Lord you are playing into their hands. Just smile and move on.

Remember Abu Lahab. When his cup filled up, Allah (swt) revealed to his prophet:

"tabat yada abi lahabin wa tabba.......... "

Kayode has climbed the tree past the leaves. His drum is oversounding and is about to get torn. We won't beg the little child not to contact leprosy if he can live in the forest all alone.
Buhari is not the only one he has problem with he also took a jibe at the "devil he worships".

KingyKing:
click like if you think seunn's anti-MMM campaign is because bros is just jealous MMM website (created just over than a year) is the 5th most visited website while Nairaland (over 10 years old) is 7th.. SHAME!!

MMM has helped millions of nigerians and will continue to help,while seunn (mr self righteous ) that makes millions everyday from his >10year old site cannot even boast of helping 50 nigerian youths financially , or an empowerment program , motivational speaking, skill acquisition, nothing (unlike Linda ikeji -God bless her).
Bros just stays behind the pc, typing crap about God not existing . Who you epp bros?

We've all learnt about MMM, thank you, & The real mavrodians know how the system works and we will continue to PH!!!

You've totally lost my respect

Omo, see frustration. Na wa o. Don't worry. Sebi you have PH you will surely GH. It might in the heaven though. But please, spare Seun. He is only providing information (PI) and that is his job.

The NYSC doctors killed the girl, inadvertently though. They must have administered a drug that elicited that anaphylactic reaction which was not the reason why she went to the clinic. Obviously, she had been sensitized against some antigenes to which she had been exposed before. Of course, there was system wide degranulation of mast cells and basophils.

Cases like this should not be swept underground. It should be made a reference point as regards learning for medical students and the general public.

if one has any allergy, i.e an idiosyncratic reaction to any substance or drug, one should tell the doctor even if he forgets to ask. This will go a long way to reduce this type of unfortunate incidence.

Fake drug peddlers are also culpable to a very large extent.

This is no longer funny. The way young people are dying these days is very alarming and disturbing.. This calls for a serious concern. Something fast must be done to forestall future reoccurrence.

Diarrhea is suggestive of infection which might be transmissible. Due to the variation in immunocompetence in the population some individuals tend to react excessively to some infections. Inhabitants of a region might have acquired immunity against some infections peculiar to that region.

As such, prospective corp members should be made to undergo immunocompetence tests before deployment to certain notorious regions.

All in all, a state of emergency should be declared in public and community health.

We youths are the future of this great nation. Let us use all our advantages and disadvantages to work together towards correcting the mistakes of our fathers. We are suffering now because of their mistakes. Should we follow their foot steps? Now let us think of our children. They shall never forgive us.
