Kid Scout Refuses To Bow To Allah During Mosque Visit, Goes Viral

A video making the rounds on social media showed a small boy of about 6-8 years, defying the order to bow for muslim prayers as his fellow scouts during their trip to a mosque.

He was seen standing alone with his hands in his pocket while the rest were following the lead of the imam and going to their knees and bowing down their heads.

He defiance seemed to incense a man standing right behind him in the mosque, who was seen making gestures with his hands towards the boy from behind.

Watch video:

Reminds me of Shedrach, Meshach, and Abednego refusing to bow to the golden image erected by King Nebuchadnezzar. Daniel 3:16-18

In this case though, he was the only one of all his fellow scouts that refused to bow down in the mosque.

Everyone else did to show he wasn't one who followed the crowd but ready to stand alone if need be.

Only God knows what was going through his mind and his thoughts that made his defy the order and not bow as the others.

He is a modern day example of what the world and even the church direly needs today.

Men of standard as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who would not bow to any other god even if everyone else does.

God bless.

God save am say no be naija he dey,he for don xhop bets whipping from that alfa! But its obvious he isnt muslim and they were just in excursion so he can be excused.

Daniel 3:16-18 (KJV)

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

What were they expecting? you don't expect someone who doesn't share the same religious beliefs with you to participate in your religious activities.

Rubbish post, rubbish title.

Why did his parents allow him there? If the scout do not select where they visit, then Christian parents should withdraw their children from such groups.

How please?

What's hateful and dangerous in this post?

🤔🤔Why is Nairaland helping to promote hate?

Some moderators are also secretly banning people because certain opinions do not align with their own biases. When members of a particular group (you all know who they are) make derogatory comments about other tribes, nothing happens. But if you reply to them or question why they would even make such remarks, the moderators who often happen to be from the same group,ban you instead while leaving the offensive comments untouched...I'm sure they are responsible for pushing this topic to the frontpage😐

I hope Seun looks into this issue. That is, if this comment itself is not deleted by the very people responsible.

Are him head turn to 3 coconut spots

That's the leader of tomorrow the world would prefer to raise

May the universe bless him for standing for what he believes

Dude needs to be applauded for being true to himself. In a world where everyone is trying to fit in, to find someone who sticks true to his belief is rare.

If this, is to be Arab or northern Nigeria? Blood would have been flowed. HONOUR KILLING!

His choice, I have Muslim relatives in Maiduguri that no longer go to mosque after surviving bomb and assassin's during the peak of Boko Haram

Gradually,they have started islamising the west. It is a pity sha.

He is a man of himself.
People like him can't be shoved around anyhow.
👍

Never follow the multitude to do the wrong.
Good one boy. You don't bow to nonsense thing that has cause the world so much pains through terrorism. A sane society should get rid of that religioon

In the next decades there might be a big battle in Europe between the nationalists and the immigrants. And guess what, the immigrants were born there and are not going anywhere.

He isn't a Muslim so such should be expected. But in Naija, they would force you to do their biddings even if it is against your will or belief. Especially those Islamic terrorists currently making Nigeria inhabitable.

They ain't same religion so he's not to bow to ur deity.
If Imam was to come to the church, wil he bow to the crucifix?

Una go dey encourage rubbish.
I am sure his parents would have told him to do this.
His parents got a consent form and they signed it knowing where the child was going.
The child was also fully aware he was going to a mosque.

If you don't want your child join joining in the activities in the mosque, then your child should not go for the visit.
Or if you must do, you stand outside.
The child couldn't have been forced to attend the visit.

But going into the mosque and doing this is disrespectful.
I am a Christian, I will find it insulting if a Muslim attends my church and disrespects the doctrine.
We christains are just something else.

Watch some come at me with terrorism now

Winnin009:
So, visiting a place means you must do what they do?

If you visit a place for the first time and human flesh is being shared, you'd eat it. I mean, you're there with them... so you've lost every sense of being or mind of your own.

Your thought process is so shallow.

He's there for a visit and that's it. He's not obligated to do what they do, especially when he doesn't believe.

It will help you to drop this do as they do mindset; follow the crowd bullshit.

Something weh you no believe in but because you wan follow crowd, you'd join them too. Smh.

LoL lack of exposure is at play here.
First of all your comparison is something I would expect from Peter Obis adviser at Upper Iweka.

His parents got a consent form and signed the consent form.
Are you saying his parents don't know what a mosque is? You are saying his parents don't know what people do in a mosque?
You are saying the boy and his parents are hearing about a mosque for the first time?

LoL

Kudos to the kid's parents. He was well brought up to know his faith is not a joke.

Meanwhile, you are promoting extremism , if someone refuses to follow your religion, God or prophet, leave him or her.

The funny thing is that If you make mistake and give this same person that made this comment a Bible or touch his own Koran as a Christian he can actually rally people around him to lynch you for common blasphemy

And he's here screaming out against hate

As in the matter just taya me bro

His head, his knee. He has a choice to bow or not and he choose what was best for him.. no one should be forced to do what he doesn't want to especially in faith or belief.

Give me one reason he should bow for what never existing if I lie provide any evidence with picture or artifact?

God bless the boy how I wish I can see him and give him a handshske. Na religion destroy the world via wrong teaching, manipulations and lies.

Respect, young man. Everybody know who hin wan follow, dem no wan hear about Jesus den why will anyone want to hear about their prophet or religion? It's of no point.

Hello oo don't come here and talj oh religion tolerant you refused to give traditionalist in kwara burning their houses and killing them so pls just hold your peace.

Then he shouldn't have join the scouts on the visit, his parents got and signed the consent form. They knew exactly where the kid is going, yet they gave their consent and instructed the child to disrespect the mosque.
It is uncivilized

Anyone that refuses to bow to Allah his creator is an unbeliever. The fate of unbelievers will be decided by Allah on the day of judgment. Relying on a book written by humans as your guide is misguidance.

Why is this even news?
Why is it on Nairaland fp
The kid isn’t Muslim, and they are probably on escortion to the mosque. So he chooses not to participate.
