Islam and their god originated in Arabia
And Arabia simply isn't Africa.
in the early stages of Islam, there wasn't any dichotomy as to countries in the middle east... Egypt was in the Middle east as well as Mecca and Medina...

Yes there was a dichotomy
Egypt was never a part of Arabia.... And the Egyptian acceptance of the "Arab" identity is only a recent phenomenon.
Part of the Psychological conquering of Africans that is still happening to date..as evident from all the various silly responses on this thread from people who think they can possess jesus more than the oyibo who brought it to them...

Allah means God in Arabic and it can refer to any god depending on who is saying it.
...mbok, have U heard them use "God" to substitute "Allah"?
Find this book and read it up; Who is This Allah.

Battle between Thor and Sango! Gonna be Epic to know the real Thunder God. grin

@OP

That description of Sango looks like something you will get from the Carribeans and the South-Americans. I'm pretty sure the African yoruba version will have a slightly different Sango story. Let me call someone to lend credence to my line of thought.

This is the link http://www.godchecker.com/pantheon/african-mythology.php?deity=SHANGO from where he gets hos info about Sango.

I think thay depiction is the believe among the lucumi ans santeria. It is a catholized orisha system. Well the information are right to some extent

The God of Iron defeated your God called Jehovah in the bible. So how much more is his son who can not defeat death?

nice list here, freeamanan!
I've always been fascinated by those ancient deities and I'm thinking of collaborating with some film makers in the nearest future even to produce a feature film for sango. Incorporating the highest quality CGI. smiley

I love your list though. wink
I would love to see a high budget film on Sango biography film showing wars and thunders like mighty Thor.

We need a good film maker on this.

My mum is from Ondo...
Yoruba has the highest and largest and the most spiritual traditional institution in Nigeria and also in Africa (arguably)... hence their dominance...

Abi that Allah na Australian indigene? ?
I know some peeps are gonna come here and bring Jesus into this discussion undecided
For una information, Jesus isn't an African god per se.... it's just that Africans have chosen to cry more than the bereaved by adopting an Isreali deity angry
Are you not tired of being foolish?
Re: Major African Gods And Their Origin by chiedu7: 5:50pm On Jul 18, 2015
Guys dont bother with African gods that the God of the bible judged?

The God of the bible disgraced the African gods,
now if these gods can't save themselves how can they save you?

Exodus 12:12
For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night,
and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast;
and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the Lord.

Sorry guys African gods are useless the only living God is the God of the bible.

PS
allah is not the God of the bible ,
if allah were God it will tell moslems to stop killing Jews & Christians.


Surah 5:51
O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you -
then indeed, he is [one] of them.
