Pork is haram and it is not kosher.
How is it permitted in christianity? Because sometimes I wonder if Jesus ate pork? Or is this something about christianity in Nigeria?
Please explain.
Oga, most christians all over the world eat pork....... .
Muslims don't . The Jews don't
.
..the last time I checked. Jesus wasn't a Christian.

Is Catfish, eel, and other fish without scales crayfish and other crustaceans not forbidden in both Islam and Judaism? Why are many Nigerian Muslims not following it.

2 Turkey laps 0.6kg 2,000 naira (146 rubles)

Pork meat 0.6 kg 3,300 naira (236 rubles) Pork is actually pretty expensive. High demand I guess. Also from my last post some people were annoyed that I eat pork which is strange grin. 'beef' is a god in one country. Besides here in the cold, meat, especially pork is vital for survival. smiley

Sea food (Mature Squid about four) 303 rubles (4,250 naira)

Total of how many rupies chief? 🤔


Total of about 9,500 Naira. However I paid only about 9,000 naira for these items because like I mentioned earlier, some stores offer discount for students if you carry your student Identification card with you.

You might be wondering if I only want to eat meat or why I don't buy other things. Well my church pastor who is obviously a Russian often sends us (African students) food items like rice, potatoes and spices so I hardly buy these items. tongue Also we tend to buy potatoes collectively in large quantities during summer when it is even much cheaper.

Happy new year Nairalanders.

Abegeee na all this kind post they deceive people that are even doing well here to travel thinking all is gold over there, can you tell us how much you pay monthly for accommodation, utility like electricity gas, water, over there and convert it to naira to compare with what we pay here and also tell us honestly how much u make in a month over there
Chale, u pay as u earn, for example, I pay close to 160k per month for rent but earn more than 400k per month, my utilities are also included in the rent.

Your derogatory tone of "coming from a Nigerian" tells me you obviously haven't stepped foot outside this country and so you think everywhere else is better than Nigeria. That mindset needs to change, else you will just waste your life all in a bid of looking for greener pastures

Is Catfish, eel, and other fish without scales crayfish and other crustaceans not forbidden in both Islam and Judaism? Why are many Nigerian Muslims not following it.
Muslims don't eat pork: true
Jews don't eat pork: true
Jesus did not eat pork: true

Question
Did Jesus command to eat pork? If not, who are christians trying to be like by eating pork?

In Islam:

Catfish, eel, and other fish without scales : permitted

crayfish and other crustaceans : generally permitted. Caution was only given by some scholars on account of some of them carrying diseases in which case they can be avoided because, even though the general rule is that what you catch or fish from the sea is permitted, the rule to not eat what is harmful then applies. But just how much harm can some of these other ones cause is not enough to raise an alarm, as people are known to consume them, in moderate quantities, for years without significant health risk, thereby making some of those restrictions watered down. They were never even classed 'forbidden' though. And of course there is, empirically, a room for this scholarly elucidation in Islam as well because the scholar who is able to torch-light the matter well will be rewarded more than the others.

The west hates this beautiful country because they have an abundance of every mineral resources you can think of. They call Putin a dictator because he refused to give these resources out to them for FREE, like past Russian leaders did.

Russia is self sufficient and will be for at least another 900 years.

I will love Russia until the day that I die. God Bless Russia 🇷🇺
Why don’t you move to Russia? They could use more soldiers, just recruited North Korean soldiers, will sure give you a chance too. Show your love in deed.

Evry1 is entitled to his opinion and decisions in life. One would wonder what a whole Atiku who has all the good things of life to himself was looking for when he relocated to Dubai. Voluntary slavery u call it, but "to become slave in a strange land and enjoy life like a son is better than to claim sonship in your fatherland and suffer like a slave"

free2ryhme:
I see you're sharing your experiences with food prices in Russia and how you’re making the most of student discounts. But I can’t help but notice the comparison to Naira prices. While I get the temptation to convert everything into Naira for familiarity, it’s important to remember that the Russian economy doesn’t operate in Naira, and their prices are set in rubles based on their own local market conditions.

Converting foreign prices into Naira might give a sense of how expensive things are, but it can also create a skewed perspective. The reality is, what you’re spending in Russia is relevant to your local context there. It’s all about adjusting to the economic environment you’re in. For example, food prices and overall living expenses in Russia might be more affordable for some when you consider the ruble’s value and the cost of living in relation to local income.

While it’s common for people to compare costs between currencies, especially in a place with economic challenges like Nigeria, sometimes the habit of constantly converting prices into Naira can reflect a deeper sense of scarcity or poverty mentality. It’s not necessarily about being wrong, but more about adjusting the mindset and recognizing that in other countries, the cost of living is based on different economic realities. You’re in Russia, so think of your expenses in rubles and adjust accordingly!


Also, it’s great that your church pastor is supporting you with food staples. That kind of community support is priceless, especially when you're living abroad.
You are in pain The Great agbadorian. Your God brought T-pain. Allow the young student of Russia to inform us the living standard of Russia which your dead god refuse to give Nigerians. Nonsense everywhere

My tenants pays me 150k a year for a spacious room and palour self contain here in Nigeria so you see say accommodation still cheap here in Nigeria, here u don't need to pay for water monthly just pump water and use as you like, even neighbors they give free water, we all know things are hard in Nigeria but you can easily still makes money to foot your bills if you are not lazy, some foolish people go leave well paying job sell properties just to travel overseas to do menial job, People earn more than this 400k easily here in Nigeria without even knowing na until person sit to calculate him expenses e go know

I already have a Russian passport. I've been in and out of Russia multiple times. I can go whenever I want, it is my home.

You're so brainwashed in the head that you think all 145 million Russians are fighting in Ukraine.

You probably sit and watch CNN 24/7 like a propagandized zombie.

You really think North Korean troops are there because of shortage of Russian troops?? Damn there's no saving you

Russia has around 1.5 million troops. 800k are in the newly annexed territories. 700k are in Russia. Zelensky himself confirmed this.

But in your small mind it is the 5000 North Korean troops that will make the difference? You're a fvcking dummy

Even South Korean officials are now reporting that the North Korean troops are there to gain combat experience in a real war. They haven't fought a war in decades.

It is nairaland anybody can claim anything. You can even claim to be the president of the USA. But your statement "coming from a Nigerian" already gave you out that you are someone that has never left the shores of this country and sees anywhere else as eldorado so long you get there by entering a plane.
