How Muslim Are Muslim Politicians? by Lukgaf(op): 8:21am On Feb 28, 2025
HOW MUSLIM ARE MUSLIM POLITICIANS?
By Sanusi Lafiagi

This morning, I was watching the yesterday's interview by the impeached speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Hon. Mudasiru Obasa, when something shocking caught my attention. He referred to himself as a 'child of God.'

His interviewer, Seun Okinbaloye, was shocked by his statement, and he asked him, "are you a Muslim or a Christian?' Seun pressed further that the statement, 'child of God' is something known with Christians. Instead of the man to see the glaring error in his statement and withdraw it immediately, he went further to declare himself, "a child of Allah."

Subhānallāh!

Some days ago, I shared an old interview by General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida where he addressed the issue of his annulment of thr June 12 1993 election. In the course of his explanations, he said, "for Christ sake." Babangida's use of thos expression could be excused on the basis of a slip of tongue. Also, some people are so used to it that they assume it to be a normal English expression.

As Muslims, we must be conscious of the things that we say. Our speeches are part of our faith and they could render our faith worthless if uttered carelessly. It is almost becoming a trend to hear young Muslims shouting "aje" as emphasis when speaking. Some even swear with "aje," an act which is considered forbidden in Islam.

Honourable Obasa should be admonished by those close to him to retract his statement and make public clarifications. Whoever claims that Allah has a child is a Kāfir. Allah has made it abundantly clear that He did not beget nor was He begotten. Referring to himself as a child of Allah is blasphemous.

Ramadān is just about 24 or 48 hours to commence. I'm sure honourable Obasa is also preparing to engage in the fast. If he believes himself to be a child of Allah either figuratively or metaphorically, he is only wasting his time. The obligation of fast is on the believers who believe completely in قل هو الله أحد. الله الصمد. لم يلد ولم يولد.

I sincerely hope that this reaches him and he retracts his statement and rectify his belief.

That's the situation of some of our so-called brothers! It is when they talk in public or during duress that we know they are almost out (if not out).

Allah relates Jesus saying He is Abdullah! (Qur'an 19:30).

Allah says emphatically that He has no son!

Swearing by anything other than by Allah is Kufr (disbelief).

I think this specific case is as a result of mixing too much with Christians!

‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) say:
"Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians exaggerated in praising the son of Mary, for I am only His slave. So, call me the slave of Allah and His Messenger." [Sahih Bukhari - 3445]

Expecting post from you guys,....... questioning Allah, the reason why he allowed several RELIGIONS into existence instead of JIHAD alone.(perhaps your Allah not almighty again?


A rational human beings would be preoccupied by Ramadan comming tomorrow, instead of posting rubbish on public forum.
YOU ARE HYPOCRITES IF YOU DON'T STOP.

Going Christian doctors for medical treatments.

Your kids to take lectures from xtian teachers.

Buying foods from Christian farmers.


Bunch of ignorant jihadists, which religion has taken common sense from their skulls.

All these pretentious Wahabists always nitpicking on non-issues.
You guys aim is to erase every cultural identity that does not align with your cherry-picked
religious ones.

While the interviewer is being mischievious for pressing further, any matured mind understand that "child of god"
in that context means "god fearing/morally upright".
A connotatively close word in Yoruba will be "Omoluabi". It doesn't mean he is a Christian.

Conversely, a lot of people use 'Walahi' in their expression, it doesn't mean they are
automatically muslims by using it.
It is just a evolved cultural expression!

Any time I see any Muslim topic at the front page it makes me upset. The topics are always dumb with a firewall added to it to prevent sensible people from pointing it out.

He referred to himself as a Child of God, you know many Yoruba muslims especially the sane ones are realizing and freeing themselves from anything slavery.

They refused to listen to the directives of fulani master in sokoto to tell them when to start fasting, now it is the turn of I am a Child of God. No sane mind will associate himself or herself to anything slavery
Continue to be swimming in the ocean of poor understanding of the term 'slave of Allah ' of the muslim faith. If truly a family of five are truly child of God, was that God not wicked to take lives of father, mother and one of the three children in an accident at a time?
If truly they were slaves of God, was there any complain about God that exercised His Mastership over such family?

So, it is justifiable for ur allah to murder your family members of you are his slaves?

Your reasoning is stupid.

Because people die in accident, it now means God is not real?!

The hadith mentioned Christian and I quoted it.

Was Paul insecured and not peaceful when he mentioned disbelievers and Belial in Corinthians?

Don't be an hypocrite!

Disbeliever isn't the same as Muslim. You specifically mentioned "Christian". It's a shame if that's what you have in your hadith cos the last time I checked, every non Muslim isn't a Christian. The obsession with a particular religion is surreal

Is it when you are slave your allah won't take the lives of father, mother and one of the three children in an accident?


Obasa referring to himself as a Child of God wasn't a mistake, will you tell me he didn't know the different between Child and slave or he didn't know himself as allah's slave?
Poor child of God that that God can do whatever He like of bad for him at any fucking time. Are you truly child of God that God pity or rejoice not with that He takes your life
a week or a day before or after:
1. marriage
2. final primary or secondary or university exam
3. pack into a new house
4. get admission to higher institution
5. elevate or promote to higher position
6. buy a new car.
7. get visa or land in Europe
8. graduation or NYSC programme
9. to deliver or after delivering a baby
10. as a parent of newly wedded couple

Kaaba worshipper, I said it is when you are a slave allah won't take your life like a chicken? Your allah took the life of Muhammad like a rat.

Your idol (allah) will take your life during Ramadan, When you are about to be doing good in life, allah will take the life of your parent when they ought to be eating the fruit of their labour, allah will take your life when you gave birth to your first child perhaps on the day of naming.

You are a slave doesn't mean allah can't take your life, in fact the worst is that allah will terminate your life on the day you ought to do good in life. Muhammad's life was terminated when he ought to be enjoying his baby mama called aishat. So relax because you will die soon even if your fasted 1-0-1 the whole year
Painful indeed, the son of merciless father who had taken lives of your family members to your utmost ignorancy that you are slave of your creator Who had, and will still take lives of any of your family members anyhow, anytime.

Kaaba worshipper, I will be pained seeing evil befall on you and your generation as we sane Nigerians shall cry and mourn over the untimely and painful death of your family and generation in a pool of bl0od
Not new as slave of Allah, but when the same Allah to Whom you are His slave take yours in sleep what will be complain of your family or to whom your father, mother and wife complain to?
Re: How Muslim Are Muslim Politicians? by gaskiyamagana: 12:37am On Mar 06, 2025

Kaaba worshipper, so you agreed with me that it is your portion abi? Anyways, I will be pained seeing evil befall on you and your generation as we sane Nigerians shall cry and mourn over the untimely and painful death of your family and generation in a pool of bl0od
What will be or to whom will your father, mother, wife, children and friends complain to when Allahu , your creator, to Whom you are slave, take your life as He has taken those younger than you in your family ? That's is question you are dodging.
Re: How Muslim Are Muslim Politicians? by gaskiyamagana: 9:53am On Mar 06, 2025
AntlisIaam:
First and foremost, you mean allah that was caged inside the shrine of kaaba, that has eye but couldn't see, has mouth but couldn't speak is my creator? Slave, it is too early to be high on camel urine

The idol (allah) Muhammad inherited from his idolater father, watched Muhammad been poisoned to death like a rat, will do the same to you and your generation as you will all end it up in a mysterious and useless way
When Allah that was caged, from inside the cage take your life as His slave at times very, very sorrowful to your parents, saddened to your wife and children, how and to whom your family and friends will complain? Continue to fool yourself in dodging the question and till second coming of your lord, slave of caged Allah to Whom jesus cried to save him from cross. As usual don't jump into this one because you are a frog jumping to run away from issue that proven your ignorance about Allah.
