Ujujoan:


Actually, confession is a step toward making restitution for a sin committed.
Sometimes, repentance of a particular sin is NOT enough, you have to make restitution as well to show complete repentance!
I guess sin the case of adultery, confession to spouse is the best restitution one can make!
I wonder what penance they give adulterers . . .

. When there two evils, u go for d lesser of the two. It is enough evil to cheat on ur partner but it is a much devastating one to loose ur soul to d devil who will,no matter ur coffession, put an endless and devastating stigma on u as a sinner. U loose ur partner, ur loving kids will live in broken home,u loose ur friend, u loose ur place at work just cos d Lord allegedly instruct u to confess. Adam and Eve sinned,who confessed to who? Were they forgiven or not?

Salt 1, God is not a god of confusion. You talked about human nature but forgot that God created both human and his nature. It is both divine and human to want to relieve ur sinful soul of d burden of iniquities but here are some posers for u -(1) Who do u confess ur sins to-ur friends,co workers,relatives or wife? U only confess to 'God'. God need not be told of ur sins in d open cos he knows d content of ur chest.(2) How many times do u sin and how many hundreds of mortal being do u need to confess to? Forgivess is Remorsefulness and not a outward carricature display of confessing ur sins.

The concept of Confession of sin and Forgiveness have been greatly misunderstood here. Is confession a necessity for Forgiveness? No. The sin of cheating on ur spouse or Aduletry is more of tresspassing against the will of The Most High God than seeing it as ursurping d right of ur spouse. So u repent to HIM ALONE,He who does not need confession because He knows it all. In Islam, when u ve too evils, u go for d lesser of d two. The Evil of a needless confession breaks home,severe relationship,brew hatred and these evil far outway listening to the inspiration of guidance from within u and REPENTING and never to return to d sinful way. That action of dt man is detested, he who Allaah has concealed his fault in d dark and goes out to the open to broadcast that which His Lord has concealed! By d way- " Does d spirit of God talk such things?- just asking?

Islam has ettiquetes for our daily activities;for greetings,sleeping,eating,yawning and sneezing etc. They are acts you are rewarded for when done as prescribed.

The history of sneezes,according to authentic reports in Islam,dated back to the First man created-ADAM(as). When Allah moulded Adam from clay with His hands,then breath life into him,d very first instinctual thing Adam ever did as a result of the life breathed into him was to sneeze. Then Allah thought him to say Alhamdulilahi upon which the Angels there present responded 'YARAHMAKALLAAH-May d benevolence of ur Lord be upon u.

Opoki: I can only trust a female claim in this forum cos of my personal crush experience.
@ age 12 downward, you hardly identify d toto route excepth if you are super-sharp like me
also in those days @ age 12 downward, your Joystick is still very small to do d thrusting
except you eat alot of Jolo like me @ Lagrams food shed so how on earth will you
tell me you had your first crush @ age 6,7,8,9, even 12... but ds days, hmmmm everything don change.

UP LAGELU! LAGELU GELU...champions in everything. Good old days of jollo in Lagrams them.What set are u? I-1995.

Jealosy destroys individuals,households,communitties,nations. The Messenger advised(in a bid to dispel jealosy)- Do not look at people above u,look at people below u. In dt way,though ur brother may posses better charisma but u re also better than some of ur other brother(s) of friends. BE GRATEFUL.

Someone sang -J-e-a-l-o-s-y.. Jealosy..." Yes jealosy is innate in every man.Jealosy is evil not when u feel it in ur heart but acting on it.Jealosy brings envy.Envy as a result of Jealosy WAS D FIRST SIN. COMMITTED on Earth.Remember d sons of Adam-Cain and Abel.He killed his brother cos of acting on jealosy.He was envious. Remember d brothers of Joseph too. The Messenger of Allaah says--"Do not be ENVIOUS". However,he says "That man will not enter paradise he who does not posses d right proportion of jealosy for his wife". So it is not bad for u 'to feel jealous of ur brother getting a better audience wt ur gf(guess she's ur wife to be)" . But it is nothing to act upon. The only way u can ward off ds evil jealosy is (1) Make an excuse for both of them-they meant well.(2) Dispel d thought and think of how u ve similarly gotten a better audience of someone else(man/woman) without meaning harm.(3) seek refuge in God against d accussed satan-he is at work!

Gossiping entails backbitting or slandering. Backbitting is saying dt which is true about a man dt which if he hears he won't like it or u wouldn't want him to hear u say such about him. Slandering is outright peddling of false things about him. Both are condemnable but slandering is worse.Most pple gossip by backbitting or slandering. The messenger of Allah says" they eat up good deeds of a man similar to d way fire ravages dried hays or fire sticks". However, islam I think make an exception. There is permisibilty to gossip about a public figure or a person in authority cos such are highly unavoidable. Allaah knows best.

READ THIS- The Messenger of ALLAAH(pbuh) says" Allaah loves u for 3 things and forbade u for 3 things. He loves for u to (1)Worship only one God (2)That u do not associate partners with God (3) Be dutiful to ur parents. And he forbade (1) Giving false witnesses (2) Gossiping/Peddling false rumours (3) Disobedience to Parents. HEAR THIS TOO- The purnishment for hypocricy in d hereafter is more severe than outright polytheism or disbelieve cos Allaah says in d Glorious qur'an "surely the hypocrites shall be d most purnished in the abase of Hell Fire."

jmoore:
if their doctrine says a man should slap his wife if she annoys him then it is good to follow the doctrine? smh

. Doctrin or No Doctrin,obedience to any authority whether it's d husband,religious leaders or any individual should be based on Righteousness. Infact,it is righteous to obey one's husband as long as it is not SINFUL.U can't be naked or unclad even if u are alone in d house or wt ur hubby.Islam forbade dt cos even though u may not be shy of urself or ur hubby but ur creator is more worthy of being shy off. During love-making with ur legally married wife u are requested to find a cover over both of ur bosoms. When adam and eve went sinning,their exposed their unclothedness and they both went in search of leaves to screen themselves. In summary,wife can lessen her aura(privacy) in her house diff from outside but not to find it a habit to unclad unnecesarily?

HI FOLKS! I'm new on NL but this topic is intruiging!The intention behind d husband's request could be hydra-headed.It could simply mean to up his wife's beautification for him OR could be a means to replicate what he has been admiring outside in his own house .Either way,he has d right to ask irrespective of whether he has a prior agreement with d wife to change her look midway into d game or otherwise. It does not potent 'necessarily' a lack of faith on d path of man to ask nor does it depict hypocrisy if d wife harkens in ds regard. The question here is "Is it a sin to dress diff inside ur house from d way u do outside"? OBVIOUSLY NO. However,d caveat here is what d husband means by 'provocative". This may be allowed but injurious to both of their faith cos d husband will NEVER find satisfaction in his wife cos his desires will be better provoked NOT inside but OUTSIDE his house.
