Shayk Dr Sharoff was asked for how long can a man travel living his wife. Below is his response:

It must not be more than four months. It must not be more than four months in as much as you do not want your wife to become wayward. A person who travels to England, neglecting his wife because of his work for four years, what is this? What kind of money do you want that requires you to neglect your wife for four years? For this reason, according to the Sharee’ah, it is permissible for a woman to take the issue to the correctors. Four years will be counted and after that if the husband is yet to arrive, she will do iddah (period of waiting) for four months and ten days; it will be assumed that the husband is dead. She will have to marry another husband, but this does not imply that her husband’s property will be shared. She will be asked to marry so that she will not become wayward. The property of the husband will not be shared until his age is calculated to have reached seventy, eighty, or ninety years. This is because it will be assumed that his colleagues would have been dead at about seventy, eighty or ninety years. The age to be used depends on the view of the corrector.

However, four years is required to make the wife free, but if her husband arrives after her waiting period, according to the Sharee’ah the man is still her legal husband on the basis of the initial marriage contract since it is (now) evident that he is not dead. If she had married a new husband before her initial husband arrives and she is yet to pack in, she still remains the wife of the initial husband. That is it.

A husband should not leave his wife for more than four months except if his wife approves of it. If her husband travels for twenty years and she approves of it, there is no difficultly in as much as she does not engage in illicit affairs. This is so because if one wishfully rejects his/her right, one cannot be censured for it. That is it.

What if she had packed into the house of the new husband?

The scholars say if the initial husband desires her, he will have to remarry her with a new contract. That is it.

What if she has become the wife of the new husband?

The new husband will divorce her so that the initial husband marries her with a new contract.

What if the new husband decides not to divorce her?

If he decides not to divorce her, that’s the end. Things have changed.

[SOURCE: Q&A session of the tape, “Idile Musulumi”]
Transcribed by Aboo Aaishah Al Odeomeey

What is Ruqyah? How is it done? In this thread you will learn about Ruqyah and how it should be done in accordance with Sunnah.

Ruqyah in Islam is the recitation of the Quran seeking the refuge in Allah, remembrance and supplications that are used as a means of treating sicknesses and other problems as the Quran is a source of healing.

This can be done to cure evil eye, possessions of Jinn,envy and magic.The secret behind this is that one puts his full trust, reliance and dependance in Allah, the source of all healing and cure.

The Sunnah is to do it in odd numbers.It is permissible to have it done to you without asking for it and it is also permissible to ask someone to do it for you, but this is not recommended.

How to perform Ruqyah:

You can recite Ruqyah on yourself by gathering the palms of your hands and reciting in them the ruqyah and then blow in your hands and wipe area that is ill and hurting you.

You can also bring zam zam water preferably and recite 3, 5 or 7 times the following over it and blow every time you recite it:

Al Fatiha, Ayatul Kursy,the last 2 verses of Suratul Baqarah and the last 3 Surah of the Quran.You can add to that any Prophetic Dua’a and blow on it.

Drink from this water in the morning , in the afternoon and before going to bed and also you can wipe with it over the places that hurt you.

Truthisunique2:
From you analysis you only ended up explaining how much christian are a major number nationally and aggregately.

So they can't be excluded from the two elective post that rules the nation they belong

It is foolish to start taking isolated arrangements via state to state, you never see christians complain of not having spots in the North West so why do you complain in the SE/SS

You are yoruba, how come ondo and ekiti always go christian/christian, perphas it exposed your foolishness that you only balance when their is significant number of the other fraction

There are significant fractions of Muslims in those state just that we Muslims tolerate people and you are taking these tolerances for granted now

WHO COMES TO EQUITY MUST COME WITH CLEAN HANDS.

Of these 6 past and present CAN Presidents, only John Onaiyekan is a Northerner from Kogi state. He is even a Yoruba man.
1 Anthony Cardinal Okogie
2 His Eminence Dr. Sunday C. Mbang
3 Most Revd. Peter Akinola
4 Archbishop John Onaiyekan
5 Ayo Oritsejafor
6 Dr. Supo Ayokunle.

Among the last six CAN presidents, no Plateau man is good enough to take the position.
No Benue man and no Taraba man. What about Southern Kaduna Christians?
Not to talk of Adamawa, Bauchi, Borno or Kebbi indigenous faithful Christians. They are not worthy of that office.
The only Northerner among them is Onaiyekan, a Yoruba man from Kogi state.
PFN President past and present
Reverend J O Boyejo
Pastor Enoch Adeboye
Archbishop Benson Idahosa
Bishop Mike Okonkwo
Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor
Reverend Dr. Felix Omobude
Bishop Francis Wale Oke

These are the past and present PFN presidents. Not one of them is a Northern Christian. Southern Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, Taraba, Adamawa, Bauchi and Kogi Christians are not considered. Except they are telling us that it is Pentecostal Fellowship of Southern Nigeria.
This is not a post to make anyone become bitter or angry but to make you remove the log in your own eyes first before trying to remove the little particle in the eyes of a non religious organization like APC.

matrixme:
The only time Muslims are ever tolerant is when the key of tolerance is in their door mouth. Let's pretend not to note that the nos 1,2,3 and 4 persons in this country are muslims, 95% of service chiefs are muslims. 80% of key political appointees are Muslims. I'm surprised that they didn't make us swear to the Holy Qur'an and declare that we are Muslims before commenting on this post. You don't even get the privilege to comment on Nairaland posts if you're not a Muslim, not to talk of presidency and VP slots. You're here boboing us with nonsense statistics, do you think we were born yesterday?

Delusion...

Addme:
Bro, you think they don't know these facts? They do but their bigoted minds would not make them accept them. Most of them wailing now would not even vote the man even if he picked Pope as his Vice.
Let everybody vote whoever they think is capable, don't even know what the fuss is all about when they should be celebrating that the man has miscalculated.

Yes
I'm wondering too. I'm just surprised what they say out (on social media) is the opposite of what's happening

sotall:
What religion is the current Senate president?

What religion is the current is the President of the house of reps

What religion is the current is the head of all the following institutions: army, police, navy, airforce, immigration, etc

What religion is the current chief justice of Nigeria

All the topmost national institutions are headed by muslims and you are here spitting trash.

Don't just list the subset. List all the principal offices etc and do your stat. You also understand this

valentineuwakwe:
can a christain rule Kano or Sokoto states as Governors?
stop dishing out baseless facts, Nigeria of old has evolve and if you dnt trend along modern lines you will get consume with it...the country today is boiling and we are all waiting for some thing to trigger a larger crisis that will spark seperation and protest and you are saying muslim have not rule in the south or east..hence i ask you can a christain be a governor in sokoto, Kano, katsina or Borno states?

Are the Muslims the one killing Nigerians or terrorists? Are they killing or kidnapping only Christians?
Are we not all affected? We have to face the reality honestly. The way you guys talk about this stuff sound as if Muslims are the one perpetrating the killings. Enough of this hypocrisy pls

Didijiji:
Another idiotic post..
All because of your selfishness you are blinded with.

MUSLIM MUSLIM TICKET WILL NEVER WORK

I won't abuse you. Just try n Also reason along

lilvicky68:
All these stat to justify your Yoruba Muslim brother.

Anyways make we see how the election go turn out

Not really bro..just trying to correct some impression. For a better nation, we need to think beyond M/M or C/C tickets.

Meanwhile, we have experienced a CHRISTIAN-CHRISTAIN TICKETS in Nigeria before.

1. In 1978, UPN. Presidential torch bearer chief Awolowo Obafemi picked his running mate Chief Umeadi Phillip (ready to win but failed) Christian/Christian. No comments.

2. In 1979, Dr. Nnamdi Azikwe and Prof. Ishaya Audu of kaduna state ran upon Christian/Christian. You want to know the party? Later!

3. In 1966-1975 Yakubu Gowon and Joseph Akinwale ruled us Christian/Christian (military era)

4. Johnson Agui Ironsi and Babafemi Ogundipe ruled Nigeria on Christian/Christian (military era). No noise. Find out the date.

5. Did you know the running mate of chief Tunji Braithwaite?

6. Chief Olagunsoye Oyinlola and Mrs Erelu Olusola governed Osun state 2003-2010 Christian/Christian. No noise from Muslim ends.

7. Bar. Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo state and his deputy. Christian/Christian, No noise and comments from Islamic movements.

8. Mr. Ayo Fayose ruled Ekiti from 2014-2018 with his deputy Niyi Adebayo/Olujimi Abiodun. Christian/Christian. No noise from Muslim community.

9. Don’t forget Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti 2010-2014 deputised by a Christian. Christian/Christian. No murmuring.

10. Since First democracy to date South-South, south east states has never tasted Muslim deputy governors not to talk of governors, 1978 to date Flash back.

Please let’s pray for better governance!
Let's love ourselves!

LET US NOT BURN DOWN THIS COUNTRY: LET’S TOLERATE ONE ANOTHER

1. Are you aware that there is only one Muslim governor in the whole southern Nigeria, Gov. Oyetola of Osun out of 17 states?

2. Are you equally aware that there are only two Muslim Deputy Govs. in the whole of southern Nigeria?

3. In the North, there are four Christian Governors out of 19 states.

4. Eight Christian deputy Governors out of 19 states.

5. Are you aware there are 20 Christian Governors and only 16 Muslim Governors in Nigeria?

6. Do you know that there are 23 Christian Deputy Governors and 13 Muslim Deputy Governors in Nigeria?

Despite this, 'CAN' is still shouting of Islamization agenda. But is this Christianization agenda of the south? No, because southern Muslims are more liberal and won't shout or make noise but if it is the opposite, 'CAN' would raise hell.

TruthIsBitter02:
From the analysis above, it's clear that Christians are the majority in Nigeria. It's just that we last unity. #NigerianChristiansWakeUp #NigerianChristiansUnite

Are you sure of this?
Then why threatening APC? Why not use the population to deal with them. I just dislike hypocrisy.

Help us take this to FT

Built2last:
By chosing to run a Muslim-Muslim ticket in a country like Nigeria and at a time such as now, the one clear message the APC is sending to the Christian Community in Nigeria is; DO YOUR WORST! YOU DON'T COUNT!

Beyond this insult, the most imb£cilic set of idjiots are the people who, in a bid to protect their own intestinal interest, argue that a Muslim-Muslim ticket in a highly volatile multi-religious Nigeria, , doesn't matter as long as they are competent (As if there are no competent Christians in the North). If it doesn't matter, why did some people give that as a condition for supporting Tinubu who himself is a Muslim? This is the fuulish justification we were given when Buhari was filling all sensitive positions with only people from a particular region and religion. Today, how far?

And because for some of our Daddy G.O and Men of God, the bl00d of money appears ticker than the bl00d of Christ, this insult might be left unresponded to. Some of them may even find a way to justify this even if it means standing the Bible on its head like Pastor Poju did when he turned the definition of faith upside down in a desperate bid to disguise his support for Tinubu. Pa Adeboye will deliberately play the 'see no evil and hear no evil' card. Bakare will most definitely find a way to defend this as a way of paying back his debt to Tinubu. No surprise in his own case.

But I trust the irrepressible Bishops David Oyedepo and David Ibiyeomie. Those two have never been found wanting when it comes to defending the interests of their flock.

As for CAN, I want to believe they are preparing a ROBUST counter measure beyond mere rhetorics.

Baba enough of this. Vote for your preferred candidate

Okoroawusa:
You mustn't vote him. It's not by force

I don't think it is wise for some groups to issue threat on the choice of a party's candidate. Just don't vote the party if you don't like their candidates. Shikena!

Just like threatening glo network because their data is expensive. Is it a must you use glo?

Eid-ud-Adha Mubarak �to you and your family.

[quote author=flexible001 post=114541932][/quote]You can fast the day of Arafah on Friday

AlhamduLilah, Saturday is Eid (may Allah count us among those that will witness Eid in good health, wealth, and sound faith). On this thread, you will learn more about Eid, its ruling, and etiquette.

What does Eid means
Eid, in Islam, is a day of joy, thanksgiving, worship, brotherhood, solidarity, and morality. A Muslim should take the advantage of this day to bring himself nearer to Allah, Most High.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Every nation has its festival, and this is your festival.” Here, he referred to the fact that these two Eids are exclusively for Muslims.

The Muslims have no festivals apart from Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “The Messenger of Allah came to Madinah, the people of Madinah used to have two festivals.

On those two days, they had carnivals and festivities. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the Ansar (the Muslims of Madinah) about it.

They replied that before Islam, they used to have carnivals on those two joyous days. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) told them, “Instead of those two days, Allah has appointed two other days which are better, the days of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.” (Abu Dawud)

These two Eids are among the signs of Allah, to which we must show consideration and understand their objectives. Below, we will elaborate on the rulings and etiquette of Eid.

Rulings of Eid
1- Fasting: It is haram to fast on the days of Eid because of the hadith of Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) in which he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade fasting on the day of Fitr and the day of Adha. (Muslim)

2- Offering Eid Prayers: Some of the scholars say that Eid Prayers are obligatory – this is the view of the Hanafi scholars and of Ibn Taymiyyah. Some scholars say that Eid Prayer is Fard Kifayah (a communal duty, binding on the Muslims as a group, and it is fulfilled if a sufficient number of people perform it, thereby absolving the rest of sin). This is the view of the Hanbalis. A third group says that Eid Prayer is Sunnah Mu’akkadah (confirmed sunnah). This is the view of the Malikis and Shafi`is.

3- Offering Supererogatory Prayers: There are no Supererogatory Prayers to be offered either before or after the Eid Prayer, as Ibn `Abbas reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to come out on the day of Eid and pray two rak`ahs, with nothing before or after them. This is the case if the Prayer is offered in an open area. If, however, the people pray the Eid Prayer in a mosque, then they should pray two rak`ahs for Tahiyat Al-Masjid.

4- Women attending the Eid Prayers: According to the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), everyone is urged to attend Eid Prayer, and to co-operate with one another in righteousness and piety. The menstruating woman should not forsake the remembrance of Allah or places of goodness such as gatherings to seek knowledge and remember Allah – apart from mosques. Women, undoubtedly, should not go out without the Hijab.

Etiquettes of Eid
1- Ghusl (taking a bath): One of the good manners of Eid is to take a bath before going out to the Prayer. It was reported that Sa`id ibn Jubayr said: “Three things are Sunnah on Eid: to walk (to the prayer-place), to take a bath, and to eat before coming out (if it’s Eid al-Fitr).”

2- Eating before coming out: One should not come out to the prayer-place on Eid al-Fitr before eating some dates, because of the hadith narrated by Al-Bukhari from Anas ibn Malik who said: “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would not go out in the morning of Eid al-Fitr until he had eaten some dates… and he would eat an odd number.” On Eid al-Adha, on the other hand, it is recommended not to eat until after the Prayer, when one should eat from the meat of one’s sacrifice.

3- Takbir on the day of Eid: This is one of the greatest Sunnahs of this day. Al-Daraqutni and others reported that when Ibn `Umar came out on Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, he would strive hard in making Takbir until he reached the prayer-place, then he would continue making Takbir until the Imam came.

4- Congratulating one another: People may exchange congratulations and good greetings on Eid, no matter what form the words take. For example, they may say to one another, “Taqabbal Allahu minnaa wa minkum (May Allah accept, from us and from you, our good deeds!)”.

Jubayr ibn Nufayr said: “At the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when people met one another on the day of Eid, they would say, ‘Taqabbal Allahu minnaa wa minka.’” (Ibn Hajar)

5- Wearing one’s best clothes for Eid: Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a Jubbah (cloak) that he would wear on Eid and on Fridays.” Al-Bayhaqi reported that Ibn `Umar used to wear his best clothes on Eid, so men should wear the best clothes they have when they go out for Eid.

6- Changing route on returning from Prayer-place: Jabir ibn `Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to change his routes on the day of Eid. (Al-Bukhari)

Allah Almighty knows best.

It was reported from Abu Qutaadah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was asked about fasting on the Day of ‘Arafaah. He said, “It expiates for the sins of the previous year and of the coming year.” Narrated by Muslim.

Please take advantage of this day. May Allah make it easy (Aameen)

Alhamdulilah, the 10th day of Dhulhijjah (day of Eid), is equivalent to Saturday, the 9th day of July this year. It is a sunnah of the prophet to offer sacrifice to Allah on Eid. Attached is the du'a to be said when offering or slaughtering a sacrifice. Try and memorize it.

It is another Thursday. Don't forget to join us again tonight (9:30pm Nigeria time) for our weekly online session on Zoom tagged "Mathematics is fun, come and see its beauties" with the explanation (in Yoruba language) of the popular mathematics book "Engineering Mathematics by KA Stroud and Dexter Booth".
