- “I ain’t draft dodging. I ain’t burning no flag. I ain’t running to Canada. I’m staying right here. You want to send me to jail? Fine, you go right ahead. I’ve been in jail for 400 years. I could be there for 4 or 5 more, but I ain’t going no 10,000 miles to help murder and kill other poor people. If I want to die, I’ll die right here, right now, fightin’ you, if I want to die. You my enemy, not no Chinese, no Vietcong, no Japanese. You my opposer when I want freedom. You my opposer when I want justice. You my opposer when I want equality. Want me to go somewhere and fight for you? You won’t even stand up for me right here in America, for my rights and my religious beliefs. You won’t even stand up for my rights here at home.” - Muhammad Ali

^^^^And he died fighting in America. Even when all his other organs stopped working and his bones/body gave up the fight - his heart was still pumping/fighting for an hour. Greatness by a warrior right there.

======================================================================

"I would like to be remembered as a man who won the heavyweight title three times, who was humorous and who treated everyone right. As a man who never looked down on those who looked up to him ... who stood up for his beliefs ... who tried to unite all humankind through faith and love. And if all that’s too much, then I guess I’d settle for being remembered only as a great boxer who became a leader and a champion of his people. And I wouldn’t even mind if folks forgot how pretty I was.” - Muhammad Ali

"when I’m gone, boxing will be nothing again. The fans with the cigars and the hats turned down’ll be there, but no more housewives and little men in the street and foreign presidents. It’s goin’ to be back to the fighter who comes to town, smells a flower, visits a hospital, blows a horn and says he’s in shape. Old hat. I was the onliest boxer in history people asked questions like a senator.” rest in peace Mohammed Ali

God don't care about legends celebrities or so on. The only thing that set us apart is our good deeds.

He should have told them what to do and they should have respect his wish.

, Parading with the legendary Corp as Muslim is wrong, May Allah forgive him and grant him Aljanat
You know
1. he's an international figure
2. He was once Christian and he's town is filled with Christians
3. He's American. You know Nigerians are over religious but Americans aren't

anyway prayer for the dead is just like a medicine after dead. Poor or rich, legend or common man. ONLY ONE THING GOD REQUIRES OF THE DEAD IS HOW THEY FEAR AND SERVE HIM AND THEIR ATTITUDES TOWARD FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS WHILE ON EARTH.

I thought Muslims bury their dead within 3 days and without moving the body in a casket..

Good to make your people proud.

Play me some R.Kelly . . .


It's the world's greatest, yo,
It's the world's greatest, come on,
World's greatest, ever

I am a mountain
I am a tall tree
Oh, I am a swift wind
Sweepin' the country
I am a river
Down in the valley
Oh, I am a vision
And I can see clearly

If anybody asks you who I am
Just stand up tall, look 'em in the face and say

[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the worlds greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it mmm
I'm the world's greatest

I am a giant
I am an eagle
I am a lion
Down in the jungle
I am a marchin' band
I am the people
I am a helpin' hand
And I am a hero . . .

[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it . . .

Why must you Arab-doctrine muslims act like fanatics all the time? And isn't it funny that you care more about his religion, than what he represented?

Nah, he wasn't ya type of muslim. The Nation of Islam's doctrine that made him great is different from that arab nonsense. And it was after he converted to that arab tripe that his life went south and he developed health issues. And he was already the greatest before that.

There are tens of millions of people who see him as a hero and no one has been celebrated in death like this since Michael Jackson died. And thousands of people are travelling to America to pay their last respect. So, let them give the hero, icon, and greatest a befitting burial. No one gives a shyte about no medieval muslim rites. Keep that to yourself and ya mosque.

same thing even happened to the late Gani Fawehinmi of blessed memory in Nigeria. During the burial, I think about six days after his death, he was buried. The burial if these type of people the government believes belong to them
