One accusation frequently made in Nigeria is that bandits are Muslims and that what they do represents Islam.

But I ask: How can they be Muslims?

I have seen in many videos that some of them rely on charms and juju so that bullets will not penetrate them which is considered Shirk in Islam.

Allah says:

"Indeed, Allah does not forgive associating partners with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whom He wills." (Qur'an 4:48)

How can they be Muslims?

Many of them consume hard drugs and intoxicants.

Yet the Prophet ﷺ taught that every intoxicant is forbidden.

How can they be Muslims?

Some of them kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Yet Allah says:

"Whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally, and Allah's wrath and curse are upon him, and He has prepared for him a great punishment." (Qur'an 4:93)

And the Prophet ﷺ said:

"The destruction of the whole world is lighter in the sight of Allah than the unlawful killing of a Muslim."

How can they be Muslims?

Some of them commit zina and violate the honour of women in captivity.

When Allah has prescribed severe punishment for fornication and adultery, how can those who perpetrate such acts claim to represent Islam?

How can they be Muslims?

Some steal wealth, extort ransom, rustle cattle, and spread fear throughout society.

Yet Allah says:

"The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive to spread corruption on earth is that they be executed, or crucified, or have their hands and feet cut off on opposite sides, or be exiled from the land." (Qur'an 5:33)

How can they be Muslims?

Some attack mosques and kill Muslims themselves. They have kidnapped Islamic scholars and ordinary Muslims alike. They have burnt villages, displaced families, and left many children orphaned.

How then can they be said to be preaching Islam?

No religion should be judged by the actions of those who violate its teachings. If a Christian commits armed robbery, we do not say Christianity teaches robbery. Likewise, Islam should not be judged by people who openly rebel against its commandments.

Islam stands for peace, justice, mercy, and security. These criminals represent only themselves and their evil desires.

May Allah protect our land from their evil, guide those among them who can still be guided, and bring swift justice upon those who persist in corruption and bloodshed.

Āmīn.

Hypocrisy, you are saying this now because they have extended their killing to Moslem, I could remember when Boko are killing Christian then, some Muslim were enjoying it

Deceivers. They are trying to distract cos Muslims are being exposed for who they really are

lol. Very funny people. Oya , show me a Christian bandit or terrorist na. How can someone go to pray to their “god” after killing people amazes me walahi. They say all Muslims are not terrorists which is TRUE. They also said ALL TERRORISTS ARE MUSLIMS, which is also true. If you did set in school, what does that tell you ?


I will advise you to tell your leaders , Imams, Alfas, Sheikhs, Emirs etc to always preach the gospel of peace and unity despite religious affiliations . That is the only and best way to resolve this dispute. It might take some time , but these people listen to their leaders and worship them.

LET THIS POSITIVE CHANGE STRT FROM THE LEADERS ! Q.E.D !

What religious do them believed?

I hope dis not taqqiya (decieve them)...... 😏😏😏 The internet has exposed alot, gone are those when they can lie to ppl we now have the internet to verify

With this kind of reasoning always shows that many Nigerian are naturally wicked and we not ready for change as a nation

Everything about them is Islam

The real hypocrisy is in you. Was there ever a time the Muslims didn't suffer more from their brutality? I hate to engage people like you who are so bias and intolerant of Muslims and people of other faiths

They obviously are not Muslim, just a mean to cause fraction between two groups. Every man has a price, poverty is a great weapon to control a man. The poverty level where these bandit/terrorist came from is enough. A rational thinking individual know this, media itself is a complicit.

Imagine two story "unknown gunmen/bandit ravage a village" vs "some Islamic terrorist ravage a village". The former pin the crime on the individual, promoting peace while capturing the culprit. The later if ran long enough pin the issue on the group, therefore causing the very thing we see right now.

Once you see this, you understand how media propaganda work.

Peace.

No Muslim can deny that the têrrrorizts and bannditz are not following the tenets of Islam or its prescriptions.

The surahs, ayat and ahadith confirm this, even the Isnad.

Then who is a Muslim? Because we all saw videos of theses people celebrating Salah and holding prayers in the bush.

They quote verses from the Quran I won't post those verses here.

If they were misled what is being done to ensure more people are not misled by them.

Their Islam may be different from your Islam but it is backed by the same holy book many of them claim to be following the lifestyle of the prophet.

The way I see it 5hey have chosen to follow a brand of Islam

Will you keep quiet and accept the fact

.
Seems to me the jihadists use the prophet's life as a point of guidance, and the moderate Muslims uses his teachings to gaslight others..

Basically one does the do as I do part, and the other performs taqqiya with the do as I say part.
.

What's the meaning of "Allahu Akbar" which these terrorists and bandits shout/recite while carrying out their wicked and devilish acts?

But are they Muslims? Yes

Are their ravages done in the name of Islam? Yes

Did their original founder live that way? Yes

Did he encourage them to live that way? Yes

Did Islam reach the ravagers forefathers that way? Yes

So no one painted Islam black in people's minds, rather people with functioning minds saw the black in Islam.

I hope you learn to understand world politics and not this groundnut play happening in your backyard.
Who we are as a nation and as a continent. The impact of poverty and the various measure in place to keep African nations the way they are.

Ameen
May Almighty Allah exposed them and thier sponsors

But they kept shouting Allahukba when they slit people's throats.... U moslems don't even condemn these actions in your mosques...it's either u are silent about it or you behave like it's not happening...
The quran has given them the bases for carrying out what they believe is jihad against infidels with 72 virgins waiting for them in case they die in the process...
Government even made it worse by giving room for so called repentant or surrender terrorists and even deradicalizing and reintegrating them instead of unaliving them right away after extracting necessary information from them instead of keeping them alive in prison... moslems are not condemning terrorists, so they are their members

Na you sabi the one wey you dey talk so. Like I said , YOUR LEADERS IN RELIGIOUS CENTRES SHOULD CONDEMN EVERY FORM OF BANDITRY AND TERRORISM . Only then can I take them seriously, not posting or tweeting and deleting tweet after some hours. That shows hypocrisy and self-centredness .

What do the terrorists shout before opening fire and killing people ? Do they chant “ JESUS CHRIST IS OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, accept him “ , or do they shout the other one ? See guy , I know of hunger ravaging the land, and I also know that it is a tool used by those leaders I mentioned to create chaos and anarchy. A hungry northern Muslim child can be easily brainwashed to commit crime compared to his Christian southern counterparts.. TALK TO YOUR LEADERS. Let them spread the gospel of love

Them dey talk of Bandits and Terrorists killing and beheading scores of people and you are talking about one man being kidnapped. While I heavily condemn both, it is quite obvious to any right-thinking person that terrorism is a matter of national security . Terrorism is something that must be purged out of every society, and fast too

I want you to read this interesting fact from the below.
