HomeofSolution: No, after the Islamic rites and prayer on his body, the traditionalist and chiefs took his body inside and no one was allowed in to finish the burial rite... Stop concluding based on internet hearsays
Yes I have created a thread on that. But the very fact that the Alaafin's body was unceremoniously tied up in white cloth and kept on the ground and the invitation of the imams and other islamic rites was sacrilegous to the very least.
As a believer, I believe these are the unwanted guests being referred to.
The Alaafin of Oyo Empire, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III's body was taken over by Sango believers of the Isese Faith after Islamic rites were performed in the morning.
(As per inside sources, the body used in the Islamic rites was an effigy. This is not confirmed.)
The "Body" of the Alaafin was then covered with a traditional Green cloth to mask the white islamic wrappings. The Traditionalists then formed a circle around the body.
They later asked mourners and journalists, to leave the hall. As the remains were carried, the devotees chanted dirges and eulogies of Orisa Sango, whom an Alaafin embodies, according to Yoruba Religion.
Traditional prayers, rituals, and sacrifices were held at night by adherents of the Yoruba Traditional Religion (Isese).
The body was subsequently escorted by the Onisese to an undisclosed location for burial.
The Alaafin was a staunch adherent of the Lord Sango and attended the Sango festival year on year.
Kabiyesi has become Ebora now having joined the pantheon in the Spirit world.
May the Orisa (Gods) welcome Kabiyesi in their arms. Ase Eledumare!
IKÚ BÀBÁ YÈYÉ “…Oyo omo Alaafin Ojo pa sekere mode omo atiba O b’olowo wipe k’o gb’owo O si n ba iwofa wipe k’o ju eru sile Ase k’o le baa di’ja Ko le baa di aapon K’omo oba le ri je nibe Oyo l’o gbin agbado oran S’ehinkule elehinkule Elehinkule ko gbodo yaa je Beeni ko si gbodo tu u danu Omo iku ti’ku ko le pa Omo arun t’arun ko le gbe de Omo ofo, t’ofo ko le se….”
Oyo, descendant of the Alaafin Rain must not beat the sekere Child of Atiba You urge the creditor to demand his pay Yet you also urge the hireling debtor to repudiate his debt So that conflict may ensue For the benefit of the prince/princess Oyo plants the ‘corn of trouble’ In another man’s backyard That one must not harvest it Neither must he weed it off Child of death who cannot die Child of pestilence who cannot be tied down by sickness Child of calamity whom calamity cannot afflict….!
This is divine retribution from the Gods (Orisa) for burying the Alaafin of Oyo Empire in islamic manner.
The BURIAL OF ALAAFIN AS THE PREROGATIVE OF THE TRADITIONALISTS
In Yoruba mythology, bees are often weaponized against unwanted visitors or enemies.
A swarm attacked mourners at the Palace of Alaafin.
An individual with parochial knowledge of the Yoruba ethnic group's supernaturalism and Isese religion would think it's coincidental.
I would not label such an occurrence as coincidental or haphazard, but rather the actions of the animists to ward off the Islamic leaders and their followers who took away the traditionalists' burial rights.
The burial of Alaafin was supposed to be arranged and done by the traditionalists, because the position Alaafin enjoyed till death is strictly traditional and not an Islamic one.
Therefore, it logically follows that the burial of the great Alaafin should be the prerogative of the Traditionalists.
It is, to a large extent, a slap in the face to Yoruba African Traditionalists and ordinary Yorubas around the world that the Alaafin, an incarnate of Oranyan and Sango, was buried in Islamic tradition.
Ken4Christ: You are just fighting with your conscience. As long as you do that, you will not have real peace. And Jesus is the only one who can give you peace that money can't buy.
He is the only one who died and rose again. History did not deny it. They only tried to cover it. And they can't provide evidence that he is still in the grave. His grave is empty. Hallelujah.
One day, you will stand before him to be judged. And you will bow to him. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords.
Blah blah blah One day you will acknowledge the Gods of your ancestors.
Ken4Christ: Yes, pagan gods exist. Even the Bible acknowledges they exist but they are dumb gods. They are powerless relative to the power of God.
And they do not have a calendar that the world makes reference to. Every date is with reference to Christ. You are just suppressing the truth deep within you. You are only fighting with your conscience.
There is no such thing as a dumb God. Your jesus is dumb , cold and dead 6 feet under the soil. Because he was a man and that is his portion
It is obvious the Gods do have a calendar. Your native calender is in reference to the Gods. Unfortunately the only reason you and the world is referencing to jesus' birth is because your ancestors were ddefeated, enslaved and colonized by the whites. You are merely licking the feet of your masters who r.aped you.
Not because the calender is from divine sanction of your desd idol man-god. Rather, the gregorian calendar was copied and plagarized from the earlier Julian Calender used by the people who feared and revered the Gods.
This is the bitter truth which you will find hard to acknowledge.
gidado14: so you're a pagan ? I pity you. if you marry anyone at the moment sex is what you think but the Prophet marry sometime to unit a particular tribes not for sexual benefit put that to your head and Nana Aisha stay with him for 5 years without sexual intercourse.
And lets not forget muhammad married the wife of his nephew and also r.aped many captive slaves after killing their husbands in war.
Ken4Christ: What did he do to you? His he responsible for your pains? He loves you enough to die for you. May the Lord forgive you for you really don't know what you are doing.
Ken4Christ: God has no colour. We all came from the same seed, Adam. The change in our colour is due to harsh and sunny weather. Jesus still loves you.
gidado14: you idiot Aisha was older than him when they married but idiots like you should ask their mothers when they started having sex and at what age
Aisha was older than him? You ninc.ompoop i think you need to learn islam from a Pagan now. It was khadija who was older than him
Ken4Christ: When you fill form and state the day you were born, you are acknowledging that God exist. Every date is with reference to Christ. Even science recognize him as the greatest man that ever lived.
His grave is empty. You will die and your body will rot while your soul will be cast into hell for the worst torture. And your torture will be worse for denying your maker. And the Bible says that it's only a fool that says there is no God.
Ken4Christ: No, it's not a joke. Our Lord Jesus is not a created being. He is your creator. He has always been with God from the beginning. He only humbled himself and became a man just to save you and me.
The following scripture will help you understand what I am saying :
John 1:1-4 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
The word in the passage above is talking about Jesus.
Read what Jesus said himself:
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.
He told the Jews that he existed before Abraham. He used the same phrase God used when Moses asked him who will I say sent me. God told Moses, tell him that I AM THAT I AM sent you - Exodus 3:14.
In one of the prayers he offered, he said:
John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory WHICH I HAD WITH THEE BEFORE THE WORLD WAS.
Jesus is more than a man. He was God human flesh. He is the express image of God. No wonder he said:
John 14:9....Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? HE THAT HATH SEEN ME HATH SEEN THE FATHER; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
So i am supposed to believe in some words written in a fairytale book with no scientific evidence to know who is my creator?
Ken4Christ: How dare you compare Jesus with Mohammed. You are not afraid to speak against the one who created you and can stop your breath. Ask for repentance because you will stand before Jesus to be judged.
You can't escape Jesus. He can even enter your room with your door closed. The only man who conquered death that history cannot deny.
jesus created me? What a joke! Lol
Jesus is himself a created being!
For Gods sake the universe existed before jesus the jew and will continue to exist after him.
newwater: Those of you claiming to be christian do you have any law at all ? or is there any country we can refered to as a christian country? if yes there must a punishment for whose so ever goes againts the law, then if not there is nothing like christianity except deceptive and scam. Blasphemy is a big offence in Islamic jurisdiction so under the sharia law in Nigeria it is an offence.
Xmuslim: I once posted similar stuff here and I even mentioned the number of times that accidents (ranging from fire, flood, crane crash etc) have killed Allah visitors. It's so funny how indoctrination could blind people from reality.
I bet you did not know this. After Muhammad died, the Kabaa was destroyed 20 time and rebuilt. One time the blackrock was stolen from 22 years. It was smashed to little pieces. That is why we only have fragments of it. This special meteorite rock that even Allah could not protect. So much for the supreme power of Allah.
Muhammad mocked the pagans of Mecca when he defaced and pulled their statues down saying "Where are these useless gods you worship? Why they are not here to defend their statues?" This angered the pagan who have coexisted with other faiths, including many tribes and people of the book (Christianity and Judaism). Pagans of Mecca, when they did get angry with Muhammad, is because he was the one who would not respect their faith and not the other way around.
So, here we say as Ex-Muslims, where was Allah to defend his house? Or were we worshiping a useless god too? In those 22 years when the house of Allah was stolen, in what direction did the Islamic Umma pray to?
Search any engine Kaaba destruction and read. I have read it in multiple sources but Wikipedia as a good summary of these incidents. Click the link, scroll to Kaaba history - in that section read "After Muhammad"
PrinceMajestic: yes but not specifically Nigerian bush elephants. It's African elephants generally (Loxodonta africana) but they also have bigger ears and longer protruding tusks to cover up for the size shortage compared with their Asian counterparts, Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) now have smaller tusks and ears but larger body. We are saying thesame thing bro, but your description is not limited to Nigerian bush elephants only but rather the whole Loxodonta spps) African elephants
I get your point but even amongst African elephants, the Nigerian Bush Elephant is a subspecie and is even smaller than the standard African elephant such as those found in South Africa, etc.
PrinceMajestic: Still a baby elephant looking at the tusk. Loxodonta africana (African elephant)are known for gigantic tusks and ears with medium body while Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are known for big body size with small ears and tusk. So if an African elephant is having small tusks like this know his still a baby because this is Africa and not Asia or India. He has however turned to Nigerian elephant now not Benin republic.
