Religion na really scam. grin


They always bend rules to favor some people while others are forced to obey the rules.






Dangote's daughters can move around freely without hijab and hisbah would turn a blind eye. Make poor Muslim man daughters try am, wahala!

He was a respected elder statesman and mentored other greats....but I had thought in Islam,the dead are buried before 4pm,the man I learnt died in Dubai and his wish was to be buried in medinah Saudi Arabia,his body was kept while they waited for permission from Saudi authorities.The body was then flown to Saudi for proper burial.
So in Islam,they rich have their ways.
RIP Dantata!!!
I believe they wanted to fulfill his wish,he is human first before any religion.
He wished to be buried there and it was fulfilled, religion comes second.

We learnt mike Egeagha wished to be buried immediately after his death,his children fulfiled his wishes even though they would have loved to make it a big celebration.
His wish came first before any other thing.

Proximity to the earth center ? How? By longitude or by latitude ? I don't think it is, because of that. Medinah has a religious significance in Islam just like Varanasi to the Hindus.

That shouldn't be of concern to you. It's a personal decision. And moreover, he is a businessman and philanthropist, you can't compare him to a political office holder, he belong to a lineage where money was made through hardwork and resilience. One can be buried anywhere it makes no difference.

Going to Medina, Mecca, Jerusalem and all these places doesn't make you a good man or righteous. Even from the pictures alone, a lot of these people would be in jail even in much less religious countries.
Nigerians have mastered the art of hiding under the guise of public religious image to perpetrate destruction of our society.
May God judge all of us according to the works of our hands right here on earth and thereafter.
Amen!

I see many spurious and bigoted comments here. First of all, the deceased died outside Nigeria and he had a wish to be buried in a particular. It wasn't compulsory but the family wanted to fulfill his wish which the Saudi officials granted. His case is an exception. He's not the first muslim billionaire or reknown Nigerian to die. Did you ever see them taken outside the country to be buried? Yaradua and Abacha died and both were buried in Nigeria. Several billionaires of the Dantata dynasty died and were interred in Nigeria. A prominent Lebanese Kano billionaire died in Lebanon but he earlier willed that he should be buried in Kano and so it happened. So what's all this fuss about?

Corpse of poor people can't stay beyond 24 hours. Religion of hypocrisy.

What is the problem with burying him Nigeria? Why should the federal government send a delegation to man's burial who obviously shunned his own country even in death!

What about those that have Jesus and don't have a good heart towards others, Love of God and Love of our neighbors is what God preaches, by so doing you are closer to God than anybody that is claiming to be christian but the heart is full of wickedness and also put a pastor as his god, you have always been preaching against other religious organization or attack those who are not in your religion line like the Catholic and you think you have a straight ticket to heaven? I wish to call your attention to it today that you should change and be a true christian with your personal relationship with God and stop interfering in other people's issues. Try to remove the log in your eyes before talking about other people's matchstick. Gracias

So if your wish is against the law, so it becomes legal?

Not true. A dead body can be delayed from burial for certain reasons.

Burial should be done within 3 days but most people just prefer to do so in 24hrs. There’s no law that says it must be 24hrs.

In fact Islam allows the corpse to be examined if you suspect foul play in the death which can help in criminal investigations or for the general public.

E.g if someone dies from an unknown ailment, it is permissible to examine the corpse to learn more about the ailment and how it can help prevent or control the ailment amongst the community.
