joseph1832: If all what you said about being victimized in school is true, then i see no reason why you should hide the name of the institution you attended. or are you ashamed of the school you attended?.

If I tell you the Institution( I think it's a University), won't u ask for the department too. If u can promise that maybe I can glorify u a bit wt what u are seriously curious to know.... Promise?

[quote author=m.k.o2005]The above sura 5:51,2:120 and 9:5 clearly tells us that 'Boko Harams' are Muslims and they are just obeying the words of allah by killing Christians ! If allah is the creator of the heavens and earth,the maker of man then mohamed lied about HIM for HE is the father of the son Jesus Christ and will not kill HIS own Christians who follow HIS son Jesus Christ !
God help us all to see the truth someday ![/quote]"Such was Jesus,son of Mary. It is a statement of truth about which they doubt.

It befits not the Majesty of the Most High(Allah) that He should beget a son. Glorified and Exalted be He above all they associate with Him.When He decrees a thing, He only says to it , "Be!"-and it is.

Jesus said" And verily, Allah is my Lord and your Lord.So worship him alone. That is the straight path.

Then the christians differed,so woe unto the disbelievers (those who gave false witness saying Jesus is the son of Allah) from the meeting of a Great Day (when they will be cast into the blazing fire)."--- Q 19 vs 34-37

ckkris: Mehn, I like the account of General Zera, leading 1 (one) million African troops to conquer those bediuns. Only that The Most High, The God of Israel intervened. This time Africa is on the side of The LORD Most High, and no Boko Haram can stop it. And Africa is willing, in this day of His Power.

Jester.

[quote author=m.k.o2005]Who said the other time that our Lord Jesus Christ will send a prophet after HIM and that Prophet will be mohamed? And i want to ask another question,How does the teachings and life of Christ relates with the teachings and life of Mohammed ?
Please my Muslim brothers,worship what you worship and i know that one day you will come to KNOW the BEING you claim you worship !
Some people in the past have worship the TRUE GOD thinking they know HIM until HE revealed HIMSELF to them and they realized they never knew HIM !
I pray HE will reveal HIMSELF to you someday !
God help us[/quote]Fair enough! I don't have any problem with you praying for us. I say Amen with all my heart to your prayers. If it remains at this, u are welcome!

Allah says- " Perhaps Allah will make friendship between you and those whom you hold as enemies.And Allah has power over all things,and Allah is Oft Forgiving ,Most Merciful.

Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion and did not drive you out of your homes. Verily,Allah loves those who deal with equity.

It is only as regards those who fought against you on account of religion,and have driven you out of your homes,and helped to drive you out,that Allah forbids you to befriend them. And whosoever will befriend them. then such are the wrong doers" Q 60 vs 7-9

" To you be your religion, and to me my Religion" Q 109 vs 6

AbdH: We tell you that Boko haram are not true Muslims because thay don't follow the ways of the Prophet yet you disagree. Now you throw it in our face that the crusaders were/are not Christians because they were/are not Christ-like.
Who ordered these killings and loads of others in the bible?
[b]"And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an host of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots..." (II Chronicles 14:9)

So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled. (II Chronicles 14:12)

"And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God..." (Deuteronomy 13: 5)

"If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;" (Deuteronomy 13: 6)

"Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people." (Deuteronomy 13:8-9)

"Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword." (Deuteronomy 13:15)[/b]

Don't mind the blind bible-carriers. They know next to nothing. Ignorance pervade in their mind in the name of holy spirit.

Tell them bro,tell them. May you not be misguided again after you have been show the right guidance.

[quote author=m.k.o2005]You don't get it,why are you taking us back ? We have long left Egypt and presently at the promised land ! Does Christians tell you they practice Judaism ? Christ came,fulfilled revealed everything to us via the holy spirit who is still at work in this dispensation ? Christians are Christians and not the followers of the old laws ? I think muhammed copied the old testament laws word for word there by denying the efficacy of the powers and coming of Jesus Christ !
I don't mean any offence and wouldn't want to join issues with any Muslim here becos i have them all around me(They are 'my brothers')But all you guys do this days is to distract Christians who do not even see you !
God help us[/quote]Believe me , christians are not worth being distracted. At best, you are just another set of Idol worshippers.
No reasonable man would want to join issues with misguided folks.
Your matters have long been decided upon! You don't worth the efforts because you and your generation lacks comprehension. Hear this -

" The Jews said the that the Christians follow nothing (of guidiance); and the Christians said that the Jews follow nothing (of guidiance) ; though they both recite the Scripture. Like unto their word,said (the pagans) who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing". Q 2 vs 113.

joseph1832: Ignorance the say is bliss! You were victimized by a christian lecturer, cry me a river! It shows that from all what you said you don't know the steps to take when being victimized by lecturers! Your school did not graduate out of you!

What's the name of the university you attended? Am very interested...

Sincerely, u won't want to go down this lane with me!
So , now I sound ignorant? Funny!

It was a deliberate 'oversite' that I never mentioned the Institution . I left it to be deciphered by people bestowed with insight.

By the way, did I mention it was a UNIVERSITY I attended?
It was coy and u blindly fell for it because I know that u don't know and will never know!

Try to read and comprehend. Thread carefully,too, when u ask question from someone who can get you lost. Learn to be humble and don't deviate from issues.


More importantly, when u see a trap, try to run from it.

I attended UNIVERSITY OF..... keep dreaming JOSEPH.

[quote author=Mr.Uzo]OMG! So this is in the qu'ran.. Muslims what will u say abt this.. Is this one lie again[/quote]Mr. Uzo, what is it that u want to be said about it again? You want an apology tendered?

The verse is explicit,the meaning of which you get below:

(1) You practice your religion; we practice ours (Just like the OP writes and You preach too- NO PROBLEM)

(2) You left your religion un-studied, become intolerant,offensive to muslims,islam,say blasphemous things ,abuse Allah, attack the prophet and Quran (Just like the OP wrote a harmless piece and u turned it into a war of words)

(3) We warn you to desist from all these sacrilegious abominations, you say the Muslim want to wage Jihad( Just like they warn you against offensive posts but you turned blind)

(4) You make life unbearable for believers (just like your people of old), we still persevere( just like we are still tolerating ur post now)

(5) You continued your oppression thinking you have monopoly of crusade; we prepare for Jihad( Just like you get us to insult you back)

(6) At the verge of confrontation we offer you a deal to avoid bloodshed but you prefer war

(7) We engage you in war. Obeying the rule of engagement,we spare your Old Ones,your children,the weak amongst you, the blind, the ones that don't engage us and also YOUR WOMEN.

( You met your deserved death and YOUR WOMEN TURNED CAPTIVES.

(9) The believing ones with good character amongst them are FREED ALONG THEIR HUSBANDS and THE REST ARE MARRIED AS 'BOOTY OF WAR' .Their welfarism ensured, that is sure a favour to their dead husdands I say!


I think you understand better now! Shouldn't you be grateful?

AbdH: I feel your pain brother. Many have suffered from these fanatics. May Allah strengthen us all, ameen.
PS: Bold part needs some editing.

Jazakallahu khairan.

joseph1832: Why is it that whenever decisions don't go well with muslims they cry foul!

I've lived in the north and I serve there, christian girls were made to wear hijab in almost all the public schools! Not one of them complained of being segregated or marignalised, especially in shehu shagari college of education, staff secondary school!

You guys always like to blow your trumpet! Imagine "to avoid being banned, please ensure that your post is not offensive to islam". How about "to avoid being banned please ensure that your post in not offensive to christianity!!!".

This alone shows those how are always willing to cry foul whenever things don't go their way!

The poster is a religious bigot! Your religion is your business! Must you shove it down someones throat!? If your religion allows you to grow beards and you cry foul when they don't allow you to grow beards, what's to stop another person from shouting foul when they don't allow him or her to marry whomever he or she chooses, be it male or female!

We should always do away with sentiments!!! Be it Islam, christianity, buddha, ATR, religion is the opium of the people!

How did an advice from a muslim to fellow muslim makes the "poster a religious bigot"?
Christains are the most intolerant and that is why the likes of you won't dwell well until you set your migrating feets in the North.

I am an employer of labour and a great number of my staff are christains, the torture and victimization I suffered in the hand of my fanatical christain HOD notwithstanding!

This was a woman that forced u to buy her christain gospel cassette before signing course forms.

A woman that told me blatantly that ' I promise you that until you accept jesus christ as your personal lord and saviour, u won't find it easy in this department"

A woman that victimized me just cos a were cap to lecture-which laws bans that?

A woman that, after all her ploy failed, she orchestrated a fail of a distance faculty course at the final year.

A woman that when the senate intervened with a law that mandated her to waive the 'failed course' being the only course,surfacing at the last semester,with clean history of no fail and a leading CGP,She resisted. I did just one course for a whole academic year ladened with long aluta breaks!


How does this amounts to blowing of trumpet? This is outright oppression,worse than BH. Allah says " Oppression is worst than killing".
Do u know how wounded and retaliatory I would have felt? How would all these 'crying foul' posts of you atoned for that scalar crusade against a harpless man just cos he said: 'Allah is my creator'.

Actions and reactions are equal and opposite. Could her singular evangelism style be a good yardstick to judge all my numerous christain members of staff who are polar apart to My HOD's attitudes.

Believe me when I say it that you would look like a saint by my side if you here my views about people perpetrating violence against humanity and giving it Islamic coloration whether in Nigeria or beyond.

And believe me more that the non-muslim( jews and christains) are the very origin and reasons of historical jihad and today's global unrest.
From Bosnia to Chechyna down to palestine through Iraq and up to the US and down to Nairaland, you jews and xtains are the culprits!

But it doesn't come a surprise- Most of the prophets were sent to your nations;many of them you belied;many of them you fought; and a great number of survivals amongst them you massacred! It is in the blood!

How small is the world and how many is the' hands of the Muslims' that they are 'prosecuting' the whole wide world? If the world contains people like you then the world deserve the 'prosecution'. Rubbish!

dederocs: bloody mediocre.

Misguided lot!

Aliyu333: 'ISLAM'-REALLY A RELIGION OF PEACE.YOU GUYS KEEP SAYING ABOUT THE BLOODY VERSES IN THE QUR'AN,HOW ABOUT THIS:

1SAMUEL 15:3=NOW GO ATTACK THE AMALEKITES AND TOTALLY DESTROY EVERYTHING THAT BELONGS TO THEM.DO NOT SPARE THEM;PUT TO DEATH MEN AND WOMEN,CHILDREN AND INFANTS,CATTLE AND SHEEP,CAMELS AND DONKEY.

LUKE 19:21:BUT AS FOR THESE ENEMIES OF MINE,WHO DID NOT WANT ME TO REIGN OVER THEM,BRING THEM HERE AND SLAUGHTER THEM BEFORE ME..

SO IS JOSHUAL 8:24-27,DEUTERONOMY 20:10-17 E.T.C
DID YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND THIS OR ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND-POINTING AT OTHERS WHEN YOUR HANDS AINT CLEAN.

Let the Bible speak!

ghazzal: i thought this is applicable to an accidental case and not one done on purpose?

May Allah reward you for the clarification. Unintentional killing differs from taking a life unjustly.

I believe the former is what tbaba refers to with payment of Diyah and fasting 2 consecutive months. I guess the flexibility for murder is 'life for life' or outright forgiveness. We may appreciate more enlightenment.

deols: While amnesty might be a preferred solution, it would not have been perfect even by the laws of the Qur'an. Isn't killing to be met by death under the Islamic law? The right thing would be to have them killed for having killed others.

But like I have always said, whatever would bring PEACE is a wise move. If amnesty would, we should embrace it.

While u are quite right about your submissions,tbaba has also succeded in enlightening us with the flexibility of the Law on Qisas!

Amnesty is not forgiveness. They are not to be conceived to be synonymous. For such heinous crimes of killing at will, no amount of amnesty will remove the blood stain on the head of the perpetrators. Nigeria may decide to grant amnesty but the Ultimate judgement will descend on evil doers except justice and fairness is administered according to Allah's law. Anyone who kills wrongly using Allah's name shouldn't be fearful of been judged according to the same. After polytheism and belying the honoured messenger, I do not know of any sin greater than killing of a soul unjustly!

However, it seems to me that the non-muslims are more comfortable with Islam been disreputed( in their mouth) with 72 virgins. It is an unspoken gospel amidst the non-muslim that no matter how muslims seek to clarify their doubts and establishes proofs(just like OP did) that islam is not terrorism, they are happier stigmatizing Islam with such bias efforts. This is unfortunate!

In my candid opinion, granting such amnesty is like coming to agreement with ' Islam as defined by the insurgents. This is ONLY for their self-serving purposes and to present a carricature of peace . It should not be seen as a favour to Islam or representing an ideal Islamic panacea to such issues. It should be seen,also, as a disservice to those who lost their loved ones.

I was on Site one day when a man approached asking me whether I will like to patronize him. "Why not", I replied? "And what kind of service do u render?", I asked him. Expecting him to explain which field of works he is skilled in, he said he gives "Bee Injections" @ the rate of 6 for N100.
I was still thinking it to mean another name of all these acupuncture therapy u see around. Alas, he brought out life bees! I laughed!

A stream of thought run through my mind as the man was x-raying his knowledge of human physiology; telling me which veins connects to the brain; which one connects to my waist(for man power!);which connects to joints here and there.

I was wondering why will I volunteer to be stung by bee knowing how potent they could be. I decided to dire!
Here the man comes with the box and on opening it, I was starring at a Bee Hive. Hungry,scary looking bees!
I TOOK THE SIX! Yeah, I did! I was practically 'dead'(not patience type though) for some time so don't expect me to narrate how it felt. It was a wiered,funny kind of experience.
Bitter,pepeermint,hot,hitchy feelings garnished with some dancing steps that renders azonto look ordinary. For some moment , I thought the air siezed.
Suffocating, I was feeling the venoms as they permeate my body. The one( no. two) I took at the base of the spine(man power) was the baddest!

I took it around 4pm and d effect wore down greatly only the next morning but the insertion point took days for the itching to stop. Though I slept much better,the sun sets at midday for me!
U know some itching that ones brain can't really decipher whether they are sweet o or painful o. Combo things. U itch,u laugh , u hiss,u skake ur head promising not to return your hands only for you to know how feeble you are!

THE EFFECT?- Why ask when you can try it out yourself? I remember this vividly because it is one of the most effective experience I have with taking medicinal drugs. It was soothing afterall! Great feeling of general well-being. Hyper-activity I noticed at work. No fatigue for days. Usual pains were not noticeable. The man promised high delivery at the work my wife normally send me! It worked too! ALL at N100- this is the real "gbogbo ni se-aporo epa ijebu"

One thing is funny though, the bees that stung me WILL NEVER STUNG ANYONE AGAIN. I believe that is natural way to prevent transmission of disease like not sharing needles,blades e.t.c. Infact, they usually 'dash' u the needles' to dispose off yourself-they insert their needles and forget it there.

Sooner than later, they have to die a natural death. They stung ones in lifetime and 'its mission achieved' for them. They died helplessly in my presence.

My gain, their losses! Rest in peace(s) docs!

Scientists have discovered that apart from pollinating  crops, producing honey, beeswax , propolis, pollen and royal jelly, bees could also be the solution to the deadly Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and cancer.

Recently, a team of scientists at the Washington University School of Medicine, USA, used nanoparticles carrying a toxin found in bee venom  to destroy HIV without harming nearby cells.

The report was contained in the current issue of Antiviral Therapy.

Explaining the modus operandi, Dr. Samuel A. Wickline, one of the researchers said; “Bee venom contains a potent toxin called melittin that can poke holes in the protective envelope that surrounds HIV and other viruses. It has even shown melittin-loaded nanoparticles to be effective in killing tumor cells.”

In an interview with Vanguard in Ibadan recently, Mr. Ayodele Salako, an apiculturist (beekeeper), corroborated the assertion of the researchers. “The bee sting is very medicinal. A bee keeper who is stung by a bee every now and then,  will not complain of any ailment because the bees have taken those things away from you by enhancing your immunity. That is one of the best works of bee venom.”

He demonstrated this by administering bee venom therapy on some people with pains in various parts of the body like the waist, hands and knees. All recipients said the pains stopped after a few minutes.

Comparing the bee venom and other anti-HIV drugs, Joshua L. Hood, another researcher said “most anti-HIV drugs inhibit the virus’s ability to replicate. But this anti-replication strategy does nothing to stop initial infection, and some strains of the virus have found ways around these drugs and reproduce anyway. The bee venom toxin is different because it attacks an essential part of the virus’ structure. The melittin forms little pore-like attack complexes and ruptures the envelope, stripping it off the virus.

“We are attacking an inherent physical property of HIV,” said Hood, “and there isn’t any way for the virus to adapt to that. The virus has to have a protective coat, a double-layered membrane that covers it,” so if the covering is destroyed, the virus is destroyed.

“Because the bee venom toxin has been engineered not to attack healthy cells, a womanly gel loaded with bee venom particles, could be ideal for couples where one partner has HIV and they want to have a baby,” the report said, adding; “It’s also theoretically possible that intravenous injections of the nanoparticles would be able to clear HIV from the blood stream, a virtual miracle for those who have tested positive.”

A bee keeper who is stung by a bee every now and then,  will not complain of any ailment because the bees have taken those things away from you by enhancing your immunity. That is one of the best works of bee venom.”

He demonstrated this by administering bee venom therapy on some people with pains in various parts of the body like the waist, hands and knees. All recipients said the pains stopped after a few minutes.

Comparing the bee venom and other anti-HIV drugs, Joshua L. Hood, another researcher said “most anti-HIV drugs inhibit the virus’s ability to replicate. But this anti-replication strategy does nothing to stop initial infection, and some strains of the virus have found ways around these drugs and reproduce anyway. The bee venom toxin is different because it attacks an essential part of the virus’ structure. The melittin forms little pore-like attack complexes and ruptures the envelope, stripping it off the virus.

“We are attacking an inherent physical property of HIV,” said Hood, “and there isn’t any way for the virus to adapt to that. The virus has to have a protective coat, a double-layered membrane that covers it,” so if the covering is destroyed, the virus is destroyed.

“Because the bee venom toxin has been engineered not to attack healthy cells, a vaginal gel loaded with bee venom particles, could be ideal for couples where one partner has HIV and they want to have a baby,” the report said, adding; “It’s also theoretically possible that intravenous injections of the nanoparticles would be able to clear HIV from the blood stream, a virtual miracle for those who have tested positive.”

kulyie: thats why religion is called faith,more like you cant question God.if he says something,its final.i am interpreting it in my own level of understanding o! I might not be right though

@ KULYIE, thanks for your open-mindedness. Thank you ,too, for answering paschal's question on the 'rationality of faith'. I believe all of us can really learn a lot from each other if we could be tolerant of our views irrespective of our faiths.

Kulyie, though u have raised new sets of issues here, but it appears to me that we have aligned our thoughts on most of the questions you raised before(except the 'kissing aspect sha)!
It is a good start! Now u know more about our faith ,and that is greatly due to your efforts and readiness to 'sincerely' seek to understand more about ISLAM and MUSLIMS.

The new sets of clarity being sought, in sha ALLAH, shall be provided for by the mod. Thanks.

Hypothesis 1- Buhari knows and sponsors BH!

SUNSET AT MID-DAY !!!

JUNGLE REVOLT !!!

Olanifesi: The scholars of al islam explained this sural tul taobah that when the country in an islamic state, ie if the leaders like the president and others are muslims. Like Saudi Arabia. This means that Islam will be the most practising religion before the ruling of the sural can be applied.
Allahu ta'allah a'allam. Allah knows best!

Yes my brother. You are right. Just like the caliphate rule, such laws as contained in exemplifying these verses CANNOT be an individual decision.

There must be an Amir or a Sultan that is seen as the Authority to be followed. This is the minhaj( methodology) of our pious predecesors! And Allah knows best!
