15. Now in those days, a man named Mukhtar, went after Abdullah, son of al-Zubayr in Mecca and said, let us come together to raise fighters. For we shall not let the people of the Ummayad continue to reign as the caliph.
16. For we know that this position belongs to the lineage of Ali, the son of Abi Talib, according to the dictate of Mohammed.
17. Then Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr said, do you think that I will continue to fight for the lineage of Ali? Let everyone rather fight for himself. I shall fight no such foolish fight anymore, rather, I shall fight for my own honour.
18. Are the people of Ali more important than myself that they should be the caliph instead of me? Now I fight to become the caliph and I shall not cease to fight.
19. Now Mukhtar thought deeply and said, I shall fight with you, only grant me a lofty position under you. So Abdullah promised him a great position in his administration.
20. Now Yazid was advised by his adviser, saying, let us rather persuade Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr to pledge allegiance to you, because he is a major threat to your position as the caliph. He is now well revered in Damascus, Medina and even Kufa.
21. He is twenty times more dangerous than Hussein whom you killed in Karbala. Therefore send a message of peace to him and offer him wealth and position. Then he shall submit.
22. Now Yazid said, I shall send gifts and enticing message to him tomorrow, perhaps he will fall for it. But I swear by Allah that as long as I live, I shall not let him die peacefully.
21. Now Yazid sent a silver chain to Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr with 50,000 dirhams. And he said, take these gifts, for the silver chain belongs to our great prophet Mohammed, which he gave my father Muawiyah to honour him in those days.
22. I will also offer you a great position under my administration, but only pledge allegiance to me.
23. Now Abdullah sent message back to Yazid, saying, even if you give me the hand band of the prophet and his waist band as well as his rosary, I will not be moved. Only one thing I desire and that is the seat of the caliphate upon which you sit.
24. Now when Yazid heard the words of Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr, he was very angry. Then he sent a force after him, saying, destroy Abdullah in six days. Do not let him go free.
25. Now the force which Yazid sent after Abdullah was led by Amr, who was the brother of Abdullah. Now the force was conquered and Amr was captured and brought before his brother, Abdullah.
26. Then Abdullah said to Amr, I do not want you to die in my hands because we are brothers, of the same blood. Now if you wish, you may join us in the fight against Yazid and the Ummayads.
27. Now Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr said, if you do not join me, then you shall be put to death. Then Amr was beheaded in Mecca and the news of the death of Amr sent fear into the mind of Yazid.
28. Now Abdullah, the son of al-Zubayr sent a young woman to the court of Yazid, saying, make sure that you take the life of Yazid, for I know that he loves beautiful women.
29. Now Kubrat, the daughter of Maroof went to the place of Yazid and enticed him. Then Yazid went in with her and had sex with her. Then Kubrat poisoned him and he began to fall sick.
30. Now when Yazid was dying, he chose his firstborn son, Muawiyah, who was only eighteen years old to replace him. And he said to him, take Kubrat as your wife because I have promised her to you earlier.
31. So Kubrat became the wife of Muawiyah the son of Yazid, but she still followed the order of Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr.
32. Now Yazid died in the third year of his reign as the caliph at the age of thirty six years and eight months. Then his son Muawiyah became the caliph.
33. When Abdullah heard that Muawiyah who was only eighteen years old had been made caliph, he laughed and said, this is a child's play. Can a little boy bear the weight of a caliph and not be broken down to pieces?
34. Even Ali his grandfather had to wait for over twenty years before he could taste that seat, how much more his grandson who knew nothing about politics? May Allah not grant me Aljana if he remains the caliph for up to a year.
35. Now Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr sent message to Kubrat, saying, do your work again and send Muawiyah the son of Yazid to his early grave. So Kubrat went and poisoned Muawiyah also and he began to fall sick like his father. Then he died shortly after.
36. In those days, Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr had declared himself as the caliph in Mecca and he had supporters. Now to make himself well established as the caliph to the people of Iraq, he made Musab his brother the governor of Basra.

And you said he is in a cage, how come he's still interfering with people's life?

He's never interfered with people's life. People thinks that he does, but all is delusions. You may want to read about the empty pot of Luwabi.


Luwabi 15: 1-39
CHAPTER FIFTEEN
1. Luwabi overturned a large pot in front of his house. And he wrote saying, do not open. It is the secret of Luwabi. If you open it and see what you do not wish to see, then it is your own problem, because I have forewarned you saying, do not open.
2. Now rumours began to spread all around about the covered pot of Luwabi. And the egungun of that land said, under the pot of Luwabi are his charms. And he shall hurt many with it.
3. And some said, Luwabi is a wizard. He has covered the destiny of many homos in it.
4. And some said, Luwabi is one of the Alawo of the land. And some admirers of Luwabi feared and said, Luwabi is using our destiny to prolong his own life.
5. And the Igunnuko and Eyo of other lands also said that Luwabi is into a very big cult.
6. Now every day, Luwabi would sit on top of the upturned pot and smile at those passing. And they feared him greatly, saying, Luwabi is a blood-sucker and a wizard.
7. And many withdrew their children from going to the court of Luwabi.
8. Now in a year, many beliefs had been formed around the pot of Luwabi. And some said, the pot of Luwabi is the pot of magic.
9. And many came to say that they saw Luwabi in their dreams casting spells at them from the pot.
10. And some said the pot contains earthworms and snails, while others said it is filled with evil cowries.
11. Now a homo fell sick when he remembered that Luwabi had fed him from similar pot before. And the homo said, I did eat with Luwabi from the pot, not knowing that Luwabi was using my destiny.
12. And even those who said they were witches and wizards began to fear Luwabi greatly.
13. And the fame of Luwabi spread far into many lands. And they feared him even from those lands.
14. Now some of the priests of the gods came to Luwabi, saying, tell us the secret of your power.
15. But Luwabi said, I cannot share the secret with anyone. My pot is outside there, go and open it.
16. Now many of them began to hate Luwabi. And they met together, saying, let us conjure fearful dreams and send it to his head. And he shall fear if he dreams it.
17. Now one said, if Luwabi does not think of us, how shall he dream about us? Now let us go around his house and scare him.
18. Now the people went around Luwabi’s house and called his name, saying, Luwabi, we witches shall destroy your life in your dream today. We shall tear your flesh apart.
19. Now Luwabi heard them and smiled. And then he went to bed.
20. Now all the people gathered together to imagine what they wished to let Luwabi see in his dream. And they imagined deep into the night, saying, since Luwabi has already heard our threat, he shall dream it also.
21. Now when Luwabi was asleep, he saw many birds flying over his head to tear him apart. But because he had trained himself not to fear anything, he was not afraid in the dream.
22. And Luwabi said in the dream, birds of the dream, shall you follow me out of the dream? If I wake up now, shall you not all be wiped out with the dream?
23. Then Luwabi woke up from his sleep and laughed.
24. Now when Luwabi came out of his house, he went to sit on the pot again. And the people who threatened him saw him and were surprised. For they thought that he would have died in his sleep overnight.
25. Now two brave homos said to themselves, we shall upturn the pot of Luwabi to know what he has kept under it. Now it was already three years since the pot was there. And many stories had been formed around it.
26. And even many priests had been threatened by its presence, yet they were afraid to open it. And those who feared so much came to worship the pot, so that they would not be destroyed by the power in it.
27. And they brought sacrifices in calabashes and placed them before the pot. But Luwabi fed their sacrifices to his animals, but no one knew. For they thought that the pot had accepted the sacrifices.
28. And some homos had formed a religion woven around the pot. And the pot did they make their god. And they made panegyrics for the pot.
29. And they said, Ikoko Luwabi orisa wa(meaning the pot of Luwabi, our own god).
30. Now the two brave men whose names were Akin and Gbajumo came to the pot at noon. And they said, we shall open the pot and dare the consequences.
[b] 31. So many gathered to watch them open the pot. And those who worship the pot came and said, do not open it, because it is our god. And since we began to worship it, it has been protecting us from evil.
32. However, Akin and Gbajumo proceeded and lifted up the pot. And many homos scattered to different directions, running when no one was chasing them. And those who were curious were shocked beyond imagination. For they saw nothing under the pot and they were disappointed.
33. Now it was known before the passing away of that day that the pot of Luwabi contained nothing. And they who had built their worship around the pot wondered, saying, why then are we protected when we changed our gods to worship the pot as our new god?
34. Who protected us from death when we left the worship of Ogun and Sango and even Oya to worship this pot?
35. Now Luwabi sat them down and said, you protected yourself with what you believe. For if you believe that you are protected, then you shall be protected. You do not need any god to protect you, but your own mind.[/b]
36. When you see a pot turned upside down, you think it is covering up something. But the truth of the matter is that it covers up nothing worth checking. So are many beliefs. They are made up of nothing but vacuums, yet they have power to protect you and to make you look powerful because you have put your belief in them.
37. Now the homo, who fell sick after thinking of the food he ate from the pot before it was overtuned, came to Luwabi because he had become well. And he said, baba Luwabi, if indeed the pot did not cover anything, how then did I fall sick?
38. How then did I dream that a snake was inside the pot turned over?
39. Then Luwabi said, your fear made you dream so and not because there is a snake under it. That is what fear can do to anyone. Now because you have known that there is nothing under it, you became well again. So is life. Many die because of their ignorance.

Common Era II 2: 5-8


5. All these people caused many wars and fought many battles, killing and oppressing millions of people who did not accept their religion.
6. This is the origin of religious terrorism. For many of these people were against formerly established authority, fighting to oppose every good law made in their territories.
7. They forced people to accept Islam and killed those who refused them.
8. They turned many into widows and widowers, destroyed property, raped little children and forced young girls into very early marriages, according to the deeds of Mohammad when he was alive.

OnPointMan:
But not everybody has come to the reality of all you are saying. How can one get to know the truth about the Almighty and Yahweh (satan, as you put it)?

Almighty God is EXISTENCE in all forms, Yahweh is an evil creature representing evil.
Shaitan(Satan) is a title for the Greatest enemy of human souls and at the moment, Yahweh stands as the greatest enemy of humanity, so he takes the title Satan.

Chapter Eleven
1. After the death of Muawiyah, his son Yazid became the caliph. Then the Shias did not regard him as the caliph, saying, this is the son of the rebellious one. For Muawiyah his father was called the rebellious ones because he contended with Ali and his son Hasan while they were caliphs.
2. Now among those who did not recognize him as the caliph were Muhsin, Kazim, Awf, Mamun; all these were of the tribe of Quraysh. Abdullah the son of Umar, Hussein the son of Ali and Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr, being of the tribe of Hejaz resisted him.
3. Now Yazid called a meeting of his tribespeople and said, we are all of the same tribe, let us not be divided. Now Abdullah the son of Umar heard the sayings of Yazid and gave up his opposition, saying, Yazid cannot be there without the knowing of Allah.
4. Now about five hundred opposers of Yazid changed their minds against him because of Abdullah the son of Umar who had changed his stance against Yazid. Now Yazid thought, saying, if I can also get the favour of Hussein the son of Ali, then I shall have rest on all sides.
5. So he invited Hussein to his court and said, I will offer you a great position. Only declare me as the caliph in your stronghold. Now Hussein said, for a hundred thousand dirhem will I not shift my view of you.
6. The seat which you occupy is not for you, nor for your lineage. It belongs to us according to the dictate of Mohammed the founder of Islam.
7. Now Yazid said, I know that you are stubborn, son of Ali. Where did you hear it that the seat of the caliph belong to your lineage? Are you more qualified for it than us? What makes you entitled to the seat more than us?
8. Now Hussein son of Ali, my father has said to me, do not kill openly, else I would have killed you right before my face. But I know that your people shall fight back. But know this; you shall die in a lower spirit. Have you found out how your brother died? In like manner shall you die too.
9. Now Yazid allowed Hussein go. Then he arranged people to go and lay a siege to hid house before he got there.
10. Now Hussein, being a clever person, did not go towards his home, rather, he went to the Hejazites in the place where they were gathered in Mecca. There he began to raise a rebel group, including the son of al-Zubayr.
11. Then they began to move towards Kufa, saying, we shall terrorise Kufa until we shall be well known.
12. Now Yazid had been told, saying, Hussein is coming to Kufa with some terrorists. Then Yazid sent his army, saying, do not let them see the walls of Kufa let alone coming close to it.
13. Let none of them escape the mouth of the sword. Strike their leader dead and let the ground be covered with blood.
14. So the army of Yazid went and waylaid the rebels of Hussein and killed them at the time when they were not ready, such that none of them escaped except five people. Hussein also was killed, but Abdullah the son of al-Zubayr and few others escaped.

Imagine after investing all your life's worth into a company called Goddoesn'texist United Bank of Atheism Worldwide, only to find out at the end that you had wasted your whole life's worth on lies, the whole lies, and nothing but lies, because you get to know the fact that He does? So what would you do?

I don't think I would want to even imagine being in any of y'all shoes, because now you must give account of your whole life's worth before the one against whom you invested your whole life's worth championing an agenda that He doesn't exist, Lol!

So you can start preparing your account from now oh, just in case, so that when you finally appear before Him you would not start stammering like, "em em, technically Lord I didn't actually say that you didn't exist but that you do not exist until you are proven to exist" Lol!

.
And who told you that God Almighty the creator of Jehovah, Allah, Olorun, etc needs any account from humans who have actually behaved like humans while on earth? Humans are concerned with believing stuffs or not believing, but God Almighty, the totality of existence is busy existing through all things in existence. Who has time to hear you giving account after death?

In a thousand years to come, fictitious Jesus will still not show up to end the world.

Are you minding him? He has his freedom of speech but the repercussions that follows lying still exists. His first wife died on 11/04/09 while he remarried on 13/10/2010 that's exactly 18 months. Not two months as he wrote

when did he start to toast his new wife and when did they get married. The period is too short for an old man like him. He was committing adultery with the old woman long time before his first wife died. It was mission accomplished when she eventually died.

Chapter Ten
1. When Al-Hasan, the son of Ali became the caliph, he was troubled continuously by Muawiyah until he surrendered the position of the caliphate to him just after seven months and two days of his reign.
2. However, Al-Hasan made Muawiyah swear to an oath that he would not name a successor to the seat of the caliph. Then Muawiyah swore to Allah, saying, by Allah, I Muawiyah shall not name a successor to the seat of the caliphate.
3. Let the next caliph be decided by those who would be alive by then. Let Allah do evil to me and my descendants if I break this truce.
4. Now when Muawiyah ruled as the caliph, he broke the truce which he had made by naming Yazid his son as his successor. Then the Shias hated Muawiyah and refused to recongnise him as the caliph.
5. Rather, they sought after Hasan and continued to see him ad their caliph, even though he rejected to see himself as such.
6. Now Muawiyah continued to see Hasan as a treat to his caliph seat, therefore he sent for Jada his wife. Now Muawiyah promised Jada 100,000 dirham as well as a marriage to his son, who was the heir to the seat of the caliphate at Damascus. And he said, find a way to kill Hasan then I shall make good my promise.
7. When Yazid heard that his father had promised the wife of Jada to him, he said to him, father what have you done? If Hasan is killed and I take his wife as mine, shall it not bring upon me a great battle?
8. Then Muawiyah laughed and said, do you think that I could be so stupid to fulfill my promise to her? If I do such, it is like a duck pecking the cheeks of a lion. For the duck has only called for trouble when trouble lay down gently on its own.
9. Already I have many enemies, the Kharijites, the Shiites(Shias), the descendants of Mohammed and many others, so I will not add more enemies to myself.
10. Now Jada, the adopted daughter of Al-Ashat, went and fetched a poisonous plant. Then she prepared a meal for her husband with the leaves. Then Al-Hasan ate the food and began to vomit blood.
11. While he was dying, Jada fled the house of her husband and went to Damascus to have her reward, but Muawiyah commanded his guards to obstruct her from coming close to where he was.
12. Then Jada slept around the house of Muawiyah for six days. Then when she was tired, she left the place and went away to a place where no one knew her.
13. Now Muawiyah fought many battles, some he won and some he lost.
14. Now Muawiyah said, Allah is expanding Islam and by war we will expand. Now let us rise against Byzantium and take over its capital city. Have we not neglected the fight against other nations for many years already?
15. Rather, we of the Islamic world have fought wars against each other continuously and Islam has refused to grow because we destroy our own selves.
16. Now let us go and take Constantinople by force, for we are strong enough at this time. Let Allah strengthen us and give us the victory we crave.
17. Now Muawiyah sent Yazid his son to lead the troop heading to Constantinople. Then they headed towards the sea of Marmara.
18. Now Flavius Constantinus, the emperor of Byzantium had trained many soldiers for many years, beginning from the time when he assumed power. And he had said, let us keep silent and grow in strength quietly so that the Arabians would not know the extent of our power.
19. They fight themselves these days, having no time to fight other non-islamic nations, so they are becoming weaker and weaker in strength day by day.
20. Let us wait until they shall call for a battle against us, for we know that they shall surely call for war no matter how long. Can anyone separate war and bloodshed from Islam?
21. Now when Muawiyah ordered for the destruction of Constantinople, Flavius Constantine said, it is time to test our strength on them. So the battle began around the sea of Marmara.
22. Now when the Byzantines sighted the ships of the Arabian navy, they said, get ready! Then they threw the Greek Fire at them, which was a weapon they had invented few years ago. This thing went aflame by touching water, therefore it was difficult for the navies of the Arabians to survive.
23. Now the ships of the Arabians were burnt in large number and their navies died in large number. Also the Arabians footmen were conquered by the Byzantines in those days and Muawiyah was forced to sign an agreement that he would be paying tribute to Flavius Constantius till his death.

Chapter Nine
1. Now these are the names of the muslim leaders who led with violence and wars after the death of Mohammed the founder of their religion. These were called caliphs before the seat of the caliphate was cancelled;
2. Abu Bakr, the same was he who fought hard in the battle against the Quraysh of Mecca. For he fought them hard with Mohammed, saying, accept Islam or die. For in his days, Islam was uncommon, having just begun with Mohammed.
3. Abu Bakr became the caliph and ruled for two years. For he fell sick and died when he had used a contaminated water for ablution in his courtyard. For the Shias(the supporter of Ali) had polluted the water with the intent to kill him. His body swelled and he had fever. Then he died.
4. After him was Umar, who led the great conquest against the Persians. Now Umar had captured many of the Persians in the battle of Nahavand. Among the captured ones was Piruz, a man who was a soldier.
5. Now Piruz had been made a slave by a man named Al-Mughira. In those days, Piruz began to become close to Umar, for his master sent him several messages to the court of Umar. Then a day came when the Shias who wanted Ali the son-in-law of Mohammed as the caliph approached Piruz and said, kill Umar for us and we shall offer you safety.
6. Now in those days, Umar had twenty-five Shias in his court without knowing. And he had trusted them to protect him.
7. A day came when Umar was praying in the mosque that Piruz stabbed him twice and began to run away. Then the people chased him, but Rahaman, one of the Shias in the mosque protected him and received three blows of daggers in his chest while Piruz escaped.
8. Now Umar had served as the caliph for ten years before he was killed by Piruz who was sent by the Shias.
9. After the death of Umar, Uthman became the caliph and yet again the Shias hated him. Now when Uthman was the caliph, a Shia named Kazim went to a mountain and began to lay a curse on Uthman, saying;
10. Let Uthman die by the hands of Allah and let his corpse be fed to pigs. Ali the son of Abi Talib is the choice of Mohammed before his death, therefore let anyone who sits on the seat of the caliph die until Ali becomes the caliph.
11. When Uthman heard it, he secretly sent his guards to take the man. So Kazim was brought before Uthman. Then Uthman pierced his body and drained his blood until he became lifeless.
12. Uthman ruled for twelve years before he was killed by an Egyptian rebel.
13. Now Ali, the son of Abi Talib, having waited for twenty-four years after the death of Mohammed, eventually became the caliph. Then the Shias celebrated him and said, the wish of Mohammed and Allah have eventually come to fulfillment.
14. When Ali became the caliph, he said, it is by Allah my god that I become the caliph. I do not deserve it by my own strength. I do not fight for it.
15. In the days of Ali, he made changes to the Quran, having criticised some of the texts which were put down in it by Uthman his predecessor. Ali also wrote some exaggerated texts about Allah and Mohammed.
16. Aisha, the girl child whom Mohammed had sex with and married at the age of nine years old had become forty-four years when Ali became the caliph. Then Aisha went with Talhah and sixteen thousand warriors against Ali in a battle, for she had been bribed by Muawiyah, who had visited her and had said to her, distract Ali from the battle which he has planned against me.
17. Now when the battle had just commenced, Ali called Aisha and Talhah and spoke with them, saying, let this battle be not fought. For we are all muslims, why then should we kill one another.
18. Let us fight holy wars only, according to the commandment of Islam. Are there no Christians, Manicheans, Zoroastrians, Buddhists, Hinduists and pagans to kill anymore that we have to now kill ourselves?
19. Now Aisha went to declare the restoration of peace on a camel, but the forces of Ali attacked her. A man named Marwan was he who stirred up the fight, saying, let the battle continue.
20. And he was he who shot the arrow first. Then the fight continued and Aisha was captured and taken to Ali. When Ali saw Aisha, he said with tears, you have caused this death.
21. Why did you ever make a plan to attack me? Tell me, who instigated you against me?
22. Then Aisha spoke in tears, Muawiyah is he who said to me, let the battle against me be distracted. Weaken the hands of Ali so that he would not come against me.
23. When Ali had pressed Aisha further, she confessed that Muawiyah had bribed her with 60,000 dirhams to carry out the feat.
24. When Ali heard this, he was angry at Aisha. And he said, if you are not the widow of Mohammed my master and my benefactor, I would have beheaded you. Now go and hide yourself and let me not set my eyes on you henceforth.
25. So Ali sent Aisha away and kept the news of the bribery of Aisha by Muawiyah away from the public until his death. However, he kept Muawiyah in mind and hated him.
26. Now Ali ruled as the caliph for five years and he was killed by the men whom Amr, the son of Al-As sent to murder him while he was teaching them about Allah his god, but the Kharijites claimed his death, for they themselves had planned to kill him earlier, because they were tired of all those who had turned the seat of the caliph to politics.
27. Now from the reign of Abu Bakr to the reign of Ali, the seat of the caliph was called the Rashidun Caliphate. But Al-Hasan, the son of Ali, who reigned for a very short period after his father was not recognised among the Rashidun caliphs.

Magic or juju is just an illusion. It is like the empty pot of Luwabi which people feared and believed to be possessing powers. Read Luwabi 15:1-39

CHAPTER FIFTEEN
1. Luwabi overturned a large pot in front of his house. And he wrote saying, do not open. It is the secret of Luwabi. If you open it and see what you do not wish to see, then it is your own problem, because I have forewarned you saying, do not open.
2. Now rumours began to spread all around about the covered pot of Luwabi. And the egungun of that land said, under the pot of Luwabi are his charms. And he shall hurt many with it.
3. And some said, Luwabi is a wizard. He has covered the destiny of many homos in it.
4. And some said, Luwabi is one of the Alawo of the land. And some admirers of Luwabi feared and said, Luwabi is using our destiny to prolong his own life.
5. And the Igunnuko and Eyo of other lands also said that Luwabi is into a very big cult.
6. Now every day, Luwabi would sit on top of the upturned pot and smile at those passing. And they feared him greatly, saying, Luwabi is a blood-sucker and a wizard.
7. And many withdrew their children from going to the court of Luwabi.
8. Now in a year, many beliefs had been formed around the pot of Luwabi. And some said, the pot of Luwabi is the pot of magic.
9. And many came to say that they saw Luwabi in their dreams casting spells at them from the pot.
10. And some said the pot contains earthworms and snails, while others said it is filled with evil cowries.
11. Now a homo fell sick when he remembered that Luwabi had fed him from similar pot before. And the homo said, I did eat with Luwabi from the pot, not knowing that Luwabi was using my destiny.
12. And even those who said they were witches and wizards began to fear Luwabi greatly.
13. And the fame of Luwabi spread far into many lands. And they feared him even from those lands.
14. Now some of the priests of the gods came to Luwabi, saying, tell us the secret of your power.
15. But Luwabi said, I cannot share the secret with anyone. My pot is outside there, go and open it.
16. Now many of them began to hate Luwabi. And they met together, saying, let us conjure fearful dreams and send it to his head. And he shall fear if he dreams it.
17. Now one said, if Luwabi does not think of us, how shall he dream about us? Now let us go around his house and scare him.
18. Now the people went around Luwabi’s house and called his name, saying, Luwabi, we witches shall destroy your life in your dream today. We shall tear your flesh apart.
19. Now Luwabi heard them and smiled. And then he went to bed.
20. Now all the people gathered together to imagine what they wished to let Luwabi see in his dream. And they imagined deep into the night, saying, since Luwabi has already heard our threat, he shall dream it also.
21. Now when Luwabi was asleep, he saw many birds flying over his head to tear him apart. But because he had trained himself not to fear anything, he was not afraid in the dream.
22. And Luwabi said in the dream, birds of the dream, shall you follow me out of the dream? If I wake up now, shall you not all be wiped out with the dream?
23. Then Luwabi woke up from his sleep and laughed.
24. Now when Luwabi came out of his house, he went to sit on the pot again. And the people who threatened him saw him and were surprised. For they thought that he would have died in his sleep overnight.
25. Now two brave homos said to themselves, we shall upturn the pot of Luwabi to know what he has kept under it. Now it was already three years since the pot was there. And many stories had been formed around it.
26. And even many priests had been threatened by its presence, yet they were afraid to open it. And those who feared so much came to worship the pot, so that they would not be destroyed by the power in it.
27. And they brought sacrifices in calabashes and placed them before the pot. But Luwabi fed their sacrifices to his animals, but no one knew. For they thought that the pot had accepted the sacrifices.
28. And some homos had formed a religion woven around the pot. And the pot did they make their god. And they made panegyrics for the pot.
29. And they said, Ikoko Luwabi orisa wa(meaning the pot of Luwabi, our own god).
30. Now the two brave men whose names were Akin and Gbajumo came to the pot at noon. And they said, we shall open the pot and dare the consequences.
31. So many gathered to watch them open the pot. And those who worship the pot came and said, do not open it, because it is our god. And since we began to worship it, it has been protecting us from evil.
32. However, Akin and Gbajumo proceeded and lifted up the pot. And many homos scattered to different directions, running when no one was chasing them. And those who were curious were shocked beyond imagination. For they saw nothing under the pot and they were disappointed.
33. Now it was known before the passing away of that day that the pot of Luwabi contained nothing. And they who had built their worship around the pot wondered, saying, why then are we protected when we changed our gods to worship the pot as our new god?
34. Who protected us from death when we left the worship of Ogun and Sango and even Oya to worship this pot?
35. Now Luwabi sat them down and said, you protected yourself with what you believe. For if you believe that you are protected, then you shall be protected. You do not need any god to protect you, but your own mind.
36. When you see a pot turned upside down, you think it is covering up something. But the truth of the matter is that it covers up nothing worth checking. So are many beliefs. They are made up of nothing but vacuums, yet they have power to protect you and to make you look powerful because you have put your belief in them.
37. Now the homo, who fell sick after thinking of the food he ate from the pot before it was overtuned, came to Luwabi because he had become well. And he said, baba Luwabi, if indeed the pot did not cover anything, how then did I fall sick?
38. How then did I dream that a snake was inside the pot turned over?
39. Then Luwabi said, your fear made you dream so and not because there is a snake under it. That is what fear can do to anyone. Now because you have known that there is nothing under it, you became well again. So is life. Many die because of their ignorance.

Shelumiel:
Juju is negative because God is against it . I serve God , and I have served Juju; so I know the difference between both .

you are serving Yahweh, one of the creatures of God Almighty and you're claiming to be serving God? God, the TOTALITY OF EXISTENCE, doesn't want you to serve it or anything. Just use your brain and do good to humanity is the right way to go. Even the Yahweh u are serving is still in his cage till date.

Chapter Eight
1. Now Amr, the son of Al-As made friendship with Muawiyah who was very powerful in those days. And he said to Muawiyah, I seek your support to reinstall me as the governor of Egypt.
2. Remember my exploits in the former time when I was the governor of it. I, with the support of Umar the good caliph of Medina, made a great city called Fustat and it became the headquarter of Egypt rather than Alexandria.
3. Remember how it was I who joined the Nile river with the Red Sea, thereby there could be easy access. The first mosque in Egypt was done also by me through the help of Allah. Therefore let me be in charge of Egypt once again.
4. Now Muawiyah assured Amr of becoming the governor again, saying, I shall arrange for the death of Qays.
5. Now in those days, Al-Hasan, the son of Ali took over the seat of the caliph. The name of his mother was Fatimah, who was one of the daughters of Mohammed, the founder of Islam.
6. When Al-Hasan obtained power, he blamed the death of his father upon Muawiyah, the governor of Syria, saying, there is no doubt that Muawiyah is the killer of my father. May Allah judge him forever.
7. When Muawiyah heard this, he said, what have I done to the son of Ali to deserve this accusation? I do not wish Ali dead all the days of his life, because he was the pillar of Islam, being the fourth caliph since the death of Mohammed, the founder of this religion.
8. Now let me not see Aljana if the seat of the caliph does not get thorn out of the hands of the blood of Ali.
9. Now Abd-Al-Rahman, one of the Kharijites who was sent to kill Ali before Amr Al-As sent his men to kill the same Ali, said to the rest of the Kharijites, we made plans to kill Ali, Muawiyah and Amr Al-As so that we can bring the internal conflicts within Islam to a rest.
10. But we do not know who killed Ali ahead of us. Therefore let us claim the murder of Ali and let us also announce our interest in killing Muawiyah and Amr Al-As.
11. For in declaring this shall we send fear into the minds of these two evil ones. And they shall say, if the Kharijites are able to kill Ali in Kufa, which is heavily guarded, how shall they not also easily reach us and destroy us?
12. Then we will disorganise them through fear and by so doing, the task of killing them would become easier.
13. Now when it was announced, saying, we the Kharijites killed Ali and we shall not stop until we have killed Muawiyah and Amr Al-As also, then Muawiyah was troubled, so he sent for Amr Al-As, saying, did you hear what the Kharijites have said?
14. Now tell me, if they have successfully brought Ali down to the grave, despite the strength of Kufa, what will stop them from getting us dead also?
15. Now Amr-Al-As said, great one, there is nothing to fear in this. For the Kharijites themselves are not aware of the real person behind the death of Ali. Was it not I, Amr the son of Al-As who sent three expert killers to Ali?
16. These killers killed Ali and brought evidence to me that they were successful? How then do the Kharijites claim to have had a hand in it? Obviously, they have declared this so that they could send fear into our minds to weaken us.
17. For by false testimonies shall the minds of the gullible ones be obtained.
18. Now when Muawiyah heard this, his anger was hot against the Kharijites because they had successfully deceived his mind. So Muawiyah said, let Allah not grant me Aljana if I am unable to obtain a thousand heads of the Kharijites.
19. So Muawiyah declared, saying, the Kharijites are truly responsible for the death of Ali, because on the same day when Ali was killed, I was attacked also as well as Amr the son of Al-As, who was the former governor of Egypt. But we survived their attacks by the help of Allah.
20. Therefore Muawiyah sent soldiers to get hold of some of the leaders of the Kharijites. Then he captured five of their leaders, including Abd-Al-Rahman. Then they were all killed.
21. Now the people believed the testimony of Muawiyah, saying that he had been attacked by the Kharijites and Allah had saved his life. So many people loved Muawiyah, saying, we prefer him to be the caliph, because Allah our god did spare his life at the attack of the Kharijites.
22. So Muawiyah took the seat of the caliph from Al-Hassan, the son of Ali. Then he made Amr Al-As the governor of Egypt again.
