beejaay: there is nothing like sin in this instance. the only sin is for the muslim not to know his religion wella ( God says know me well before you worship me, if you dont know me, how then can you wosrhip me). its actually an opportunity for him to expose james ignorance by contributing to the blog islamically
Sensible answer!

Cheers

deols: There are many reasons to doubt an atheist.

They have no guiding principles, no strict values. Life is all about what they subjectively think is right or wrong.
You might want to be more tolerant of atheists. You even have an atheist boss here on Nairaland.

I am not going to argue with you since you have a lot to learn about atheists. Feel free to ask questions
Islam › Re: Stop Being A 21st Century Muslim? by MacDaddy01: 10:51am On Feb 21, 2013
The OP is very insulting. Who are you to tell people not to pay respects to Goldie?

I do not agree with Micheal Jackson's lifestyle but I still wished him to rest in peace and his family to find consolation because he was a talented musician.


There might be muslims who respect Goldie for her music but not her style.


This black and white thinking will not last in the 21st century. Goldie is not a muslim and doesnt have to dress and live by your standards. If other muslims or christians choose to mourn her it is their business. The last time I checked, no one said that Goldie was a messiah or some african warrior.

Goldie didnt kill anyone and neither did she oppress people. Better go and focus on some of your brethren that support living Imams and Clerics who cause problems in society with their extremist views. Let he dead rest in peace

tbaba1234: "A reputation once broken may possibly be repaired, but the world will always keep their eyes on the spot where the crack was. "- Joseph Hall

Our conclusions are based on your reputation/history....
The person that you quoted, was he a muslim?

Does islam teach you to look at the facts or judge by your subjective beliefs about someones reputation?
Islam › Re: Sharia And Nigeria Politics by MacDaddy01: 6:36pm On Feb 20, 2013
justaqad: Salam Alaykum
In philosophical, theological, or moral discussions, corruption is spiritual or moral impurity or deviation from an ideal. Corruption may include many activities including bribery and embezzlement. Government, or 'political', corruption occurs when an office-holder or other governmental employee acts in an official capacity for his or her own personal gain.
corruption is synonymous with the term NIgeria. civilised and morally upright countries deal with this syndrome harshly without mercy.but in Nigeria reverse is the case.corruption is condoned.corruption is only a crime when you steal in 4 figures.you disgrace the cabal an you would be punished severely there is no impunity for stealing in 4 figures.
when you exalt to 6 figures you will be revered and celebrated only Nigeria.
it is no news how petty thief are dealt with in Sharia states in Nigeria.though the punishments are harsh but serves as deterent to others.
Sharia in the north has been politicized,justice has been relegated.only the poor and weak face justice and punishment,the rich and influential are praised encouraged to do more.
what stops Sharia from Amputating the big shots that is holding Northern Nigeria to ransom?
Masalam
What is your point? That sharia is not properly practiced in Nigeria? That only the small time crooks are punished while the big thieves are ;let scot-free?

See them.

Did I argue with Fellis or Lagoshia? I told a true story that happened to my friend and asked for the islamic ruling on the situation.


2 days later, after replying Seun's comment, I asked myself what if the same situation with Jame's designer in the op happened to Seun? I posted what I thought 2 days later after making the thread originally.

=================================


Now Tbaba and Deols come to accuse me of having some agenda.

=====================================



I wont argue. I have stopped that on the islam section. Tbaba and Deols, keep up the paranoia and fear of questions.
Islam › Re: Should A Muslim Help An Atheist In This Situation? by MacDaddy01(op): 3:07pm On Feb 20, 2013
Unfortunately for LagosShia and Fellis,


If Seun (the owner of this site) were an atheist transferred to the north of Nigeria who went to a muslim designer to help him create a site called Naraland where atheists can open threads and bash religion in the religion section, the designer would have said no..........no Nairaland


Food for thought

BetaThings: Hahahaha
So I am bloodthirsty because I mention Badr?
Really?
Not surprised anyway since you have already alleged that most muslims despise non-muslims

Your campaigns against Muslims will fail
Justaqad is right in that sense. Too many muslims are taught that unbelievers are the enemy. Many of them segregate themselves away from the non-muslims world.

Now, there are many other muslims that are sensible and can relate to non-muslims but they seem to be few in muslim dominated areas.


Correct me if I am wrong. This is my opinion after living in London for sometime. The muslims that work together with the non-muslims in daily life are cool. However, the isolated ones in closed muslim neighbourhoods are the ones enforcing "sharia neighbourhoods" in london.

BetaThings: Please mention one knowledgeable group (just one) who put Muslim Terrorists at the top of their global threat assessment list
It never pays to ignore reality because of the hatred of a religion
So a nuclear bomb will be a toy in the hands of the Norwegian terrorist, Breivik? Or his associates in Poland who wanted to murder government officials or the David Koresh and his suicidal band
Even Sri Lankans who faced the Tamil Tigers would not agree with you

So failure of man-made systems make evil and death less painful? The victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki disagree
Today the Americans fear a nuclear-armed foe, whatever his motivation even if from Mars

If your religion or atheism is not perfect, you can continue working on it. Even Americans now admit that the meddling in Iraq has made the ME less safe

Islam is perfect. We only need to explain it to cut the blood flow of new members to the extremists who never on their own commit suicide. You would like to upset the 99% of Muslims who abhor violence in order to take curtail the actions of the extremist 1%. That has never worked and will never
Much is to be learnt from History. Your "ideal" muslim country of UAE proves that eloquently
Yawn. Where is Justaqad to handle Betathings?

toba: my understanding of 'maybe' is I'm not sure. Someone really needs to watch it.

Away from that, the latter part of this post says it all. The Islamic founder/prophet's a mere mortal like toba, tbaba, deols, Mukina, hence he didnt live forever. I said something about him and Lagosshia decided to curse my parents. A member of NL once threatened to behead me after talking against Islam. I think Muslims sees fight, violence, war as no big deal and get too Emotional about Religion.
lol grin grin grin


Seun wasnt sure that Maclatunji was a non-violent muslim. Maclatunji was given a "maybe" while other muslims were surely nice and gentle!

Seun has style. The guy knows how to smile outwardly and jab covertly.
Islam › Re: Lodge Your Complaints Here by MacDaddy01: 3:27pm On Feb 19, 2013
mdsocks: Not in effect referring to you but to other Christians who hurl insults at Muslims on this forum.

Take for instance the Darnish cartoonist...You have a right to make any drawings but also respect the right of others who are entitled to a belief system.
Muslims also hurl insults.


The Danish cartoonists have every right to publish those cartoons. If a picture of your prophet can lead people to violence, then you best be asking questions of your religion and not the cartoonist.


The best way to reply is with words and letters. If we can make fun of leaders/democracy/ideologies, surely religion must also be subject to satire/mockery.
Islam › Re: Seun's Comment On The Warning On The Islam Section by MacDaddy01(op): 3:20pm On Feb 19, 2013
chakula: I don’t understand your last statement which may be is included after naming your sociable Muslims, Are you telling me that Maclatunji's way of moderating Islamic is not admirable? or was the statement that he placed on the section is invasive to you and Nairaland in general?

Kindly you can treat this situation between you and the moderators and, I can personally not happy the way things are happening on Nairaland. In all most all the sections that has to do with Religion and Politics things are getting out of hand and no measure that has been put in place, at least Mac is moderating his section the way he think is pleasing.

if You Seun is dissatisfactory with Mac style, so alarm should put in place and do’s and don’ts procedures should be attached to the offer of moderators before granting them the bid.
In the religion section, things work out fine. We have small hiccups but we make up with our mods. Pagan, atheist, christian, deists etc

On this section that only holds one religion, it is causing quite a stir.............

They have a right to their belief system and you owe them a right to respect such beliefs.

So please take note...
Where did I abuse islam?

I am talking about Vedaxcool who hurls abuses. Lets stay on point/focus

tbaba1234: ^ Vedaxcool is good for this section, we need people like him... There are times where people have to be direct with some of you guys. Vedaxcool does that well. He gives out what is given to him.

Stop gloating!!
I am disappointed Tbaba.

You are better than that. Using your fellow muslim as an attack dog to hurl abuse at kaffir and unbelievers?

Is this the behaviour expected from the ummah?
Christianity Etc › Re: Atheism: A Lie. Everybody Believes In A God. by MacDaddy01: 2:49pm On Feb 19, 2013
MacDaddy01: This is the foolishness of theists/deists appearing again.


There is no evidence for god. You people keep using the same dead arguments.

Please, notice that all their evidence for god is based on mystery. How can a mystery be evidence when a mystery by definition is confusion because there is no evidence/clues to explain it.



Mysteries used as evidence for God;

-Ihedinobi starts the thread with the mystery of "self sufficiency"
-Deepsight and Enigma use the origin of the universe to claim God exists. (No one knows the full origin of the universe)
-Miracles. Something mysteriously happens (eg a person defeats cancer) and it is God that did it!



Seriously? angry angry angry angry


Let me debunk the Cosmological arguments for God once and for all
-Whatever the origin or cause of the universe we do not fully know. Anything that tries to explain it without empirical evidence or some data is a hypothesis.

-We can easily explain how something can come from something. We have no evidence nor reason to believe that an immaterial spirit being can create something.

-We have no evidence for spirits or invisible beings not now or ever. You cant even explain what a spirit is? Is it antimatter or gas? How would a spirit be able to create the world? One mystery used to explain the mystery of the origin of our universe!




#theism/deism debunked. cool

Or is it a coincidence that muslims are finally complaining about Vedaxcool's abusive comments?

Islam › Seun's Comment On The Warning On The Islam Section by MacDaddy01(op): 12:02pm On Feb 19, 2013
This situation is becoming interesting;

Seun: [size=18pt]Quite a few muslims have felt that what I meant above is that muslims are violent. This was not what I meant to say, but my words came out wrong. Most muslims I have interacted with are very nice & gentle and not violent or aggressive. For example, mukina2, Jarus, deols, and maybe maclatunji. But the problem is that in the muslim community, there are quite a few extremists who tend to react aggressively to any perceived insult against Islam. Someone suggested that a holy prophet would marry beauty queen and people were killed. Someone in Europe published a satirical cartoon and people were killed. We do not want Nairaland to be responsible for such deaths. That's why we have to warn people.[/size]

Christianity Etc › Re: Christians Would You Help An Atheist In This Case? by MacDaddy01: 9:18pm On Feb 18, 2013
ARareGem: ^^
I think that's a perfectly reasonable question as it applies. It would be the same thing as aiding the atheist to do more evil. Lord only knows how many bloggers he would be able to confuse.

For an atheist to convince a man into accepting unbelief in the existence of God, he ultimately leads that man to eternal damnation. Eternal damnation is far worse than physical death which you consider to be a crime.

Personally, I would refuse that job.
Stirklymi, see what irrelevant question has caused? Now atheism is now similar to terrorism and crime.

Wow. Yes madam smiley

fellis: Basically this.
A Muslim isn't supposed to do anything to promote disbelief. Designing such a site is one of such things.
Okay.

Since you're in IT or a related field, maybe you can spread this message to your colleagues. I found it quite interesting.

However, now I have to selectively avoid muslims if I am looking for someone to design an atheist website or merchandise.

later, he was 'forced' to finish d job.

not so smart of you. I like you nevertheless.

well, LagosShia gave the right answer alraeady.
If you have nothing to add or say,, why not keep quiet?


"forced" was put in quotation marks for a reason. The designer had already started and it would have been a waste of time/effort to stop at such a stage. That was what "forced" meant.
Islam › Re: Should A Muslim Help An Atheist In This Situation? by MacDaddy01(op): 6:45pm On Feb 18, 2013
LagosShia: the muslim designer should have refund the money and stopped working for the atheist. im giving this based on a ruling of Ayatollah Sistani on christmas.he said if celebrating (like christmas tree and santa claus,not just wishing christians) would promote the beliefs or religion of others,it is forbidden.so drawing conclusion from that reasoning,it is forbidden for a muslim to promote what contradicts Islam or is against God.

if its an answer from a muslim perspective you're looking for,youve got one.by that i mean,i hope youre not as usual seeking attention,to go on and argue the answer to your question.
I am just curious.

The problem for the muslim designer was that he started working on the website before he knew about the atheism of James. I think he was "forced" to finish the project.


Hope the guy didnt sin by completing the website sha!

How did you arrive at the bold from my comment?

How does your story relate to my comment?


If you have nothing to say, why not keep quiet?


MacDaddy01: What? I am waiting for the day that muslims will be honest about Maclatunji. Should I post evidence of Vedaxcool troolling and derailing my thread while Maclatunji did nothing even though i reported?

Should I show you vedaxcool's abusive history? Or how Vedaxcool makes fun of someone's depression? How many muslims have cautioned him?


You people sometimes dont know that you are the ones that make people run away from islam
Islam › Should A Muslim Help An Atheist In This Situation? by MacDaddy01(op): 4:28pm On Feb 18, 2013
So, many muslims here know that I'm an atheist here. I am going to tell you guys what happened to a friend recently. My friends name is James.


So, my friend was starting a personal blog but he wanted it to look professional because he is kind of popular. He needed a website designer to design his blog. James found a designer who has a great reputation and has designed many popular websites. The designer is a muslim. James paid the designer and the designer started to work on the blog. Now, James is an atheist and he somethings writes thing about criticising religion and god. Unfortuantely, the designer has to ask James for some of his written material because he needs to show james how to upload stuff on the blog and how his blog with look like.

James noticed that the designer stopped giving him regular updates on the website and started delaying progress reports. What happened was that the muslim designer was confused and angry that he was helping an atheist to set up a blog criticizing/mocking God to a point of blasphemy (sometimes christianity and sometimes islam). James learnt this from the junior partner of the muslims designer who had to confess because he didnt like the way the client was complaining about the delays.

Long story short, the blog was designed well and James is blogging away. But was the muslim right? Should he have designed the blog or refunded the money to the atheist blogger?

This is a situation that many muslims in website design can face............
