Your first reaction to a question simply raised was AGGRESSIVE.

How do you expect to impart knowledge that way?

God bless @Empiree that responded with 'sense'.

This is a very informative response. Most grateful. Much better than another respondent who just issued abuses.
I was rather shocked to hear that Muslims do not do evangelism. Agreed it's less than we Christians do. I saw I child grow up in the neighbourhood in a Western country. From a Christian home. Around age 18 or 19 I suddenly saw him in town wearing a Muslim white robe and cap.

Later he began setting a table near where Christians have been preaching for decades. He was preaching Islam beside them too.

Now some people just simply assumed he just went there to find trouble. I wonder why some people suddenly thought negative.

I have also met Muslims very willing to discuss Islam. A female friend from North Africa once gave me a Koran in English language. We very openly discussed religion. She is a lawyer and from a long line of judges and lawyers in her family.

there is no need to drag this. Like someone said earlier, it is not necessary to place Quran there.


I think I made my point clear, isn't?.


What you missed is that if a hotel is primarily funded by Muslims and it is established on Islamic principles, there won't be any obvious Haram activities like selling it alcohol, pork etc.

But you can't prevent fornication or adultery because you don't know what goes on in the room and management is not responsible for that. Therefore, base on these principles I mentioned, Qur'an can be placed in hotel drawers since management
doesn't accommodate selling of these things to begin with. Simple isn't?.

Let's not complicate things
That's right

That's because the Bibles are sponsored by the Bible Society of that particular country and they are regarded as donations to such establishments.

As to why Qurans can't be found, I guess that's a question for NSCIA or Muric.
yes we have one Association called Gideon international in conjunction with Bible society of Nigeria,they take it has their called to distribute bible to schools and hotel that's the reason why you always see bible in the hotel,thanks

Same reason anyone can comment on a christain thread here. But one is required to swear an oath before commenting on any Islamic thread.

Christainity as a religion is open to all and transparent.

There are Muslims who will find it offensive, if they see you reading the Quran.
Christians on the other hand, encourage you to read the Bible.

Before you say anything, I know muslims who don't like anyone talking about the Quaran.




Sir, your assertion is incorrect, non Muslims are allowed to study the Quran and nowhere it's that they are discouraged. Perhaps why you won't find it in hotel rooms is because it should be kept only in respectable places, I am not sure most hotel rooms qualify as such. Also some non Muslims have been known to discredit the Quran that's why it's kept in controlled places.

P.S
Remember no good Muslim will ever disrespect the Bible

I noticed most hotels in Nigeria (I don't know about the ones in the North) only have the Holy Bible for lodgers.

While this is a good developments, I always wonder what about adherents of other religions?

Thank God, the crusaders were almost 1000 yrs ago while Muslims still kill people in the middle belt and everywhere in the world up till today.

Even in UK, they kill their family members who "shame" them.

At this point in my life, I can no longer be fooled anymore. I have heard of cases like this grin

I have heard bunch of "ex-muslims" who are in fact, evangelical Christians. It is not new grin cheesy

https://www.nairaland.com/2189813/christians-evangelism-deceptions


And there are very few who indeed were Muslims before but for some reason, they left Islam. This is normal if we understand Islam better. There are people who are born in muslim household to muslim parents and die as Muslims. There are people who are in the same position but they converted to other religion and die there.

There are people from Christianity and or other religions who revert to Islam and die as muslims. So it is not a big deal at all. I'm not here to debate religion. This topic is not related.

Yeah that is true. The Muslim kind of evangelism is ; blow an area up while screaming Allah Akbar, capturing survivors of the blast and screaming '' believe in the Koran or get your head chopped off? Choose one''. Not like the Christians actually.

Islam as a religion is nothing but the idea of the devil, that‘s all.

1. Because not everybody can read Qur'an.
2. Because not everybody can freely touch Qur'an, because of its sanctity. You can't touch Qur'an before and after committing formication or adultery.. A woman on her menstral cycle can't touch Qur'an, etc.

Only someone who doesn't understand Islam or wants to become like the West would advice The Quran be put in such hotels.

actually, it is the same in the west. Now, that brings up question of fundamentalism and religious persuasion. If MUSLIMS do the same they label them something despicable. Most hotels in Western countries have Bible(s) in their rooms. It is their fundamental believe system. Why can't Muslims do the same without being seen as extremists?

Hospitals have it too. It's just weird

I must say that this is the best response I've ever seen you give on this forum.
I don't know if I've been confusing you for someone else but you just gained my respect with that first paragraph. Thanks.
Empiree:
lol, this is illogical. Hotel by definition is meant to provide accommodation for travellers especially. It is not designed for fornication or adultery. But people may do Haram things they want while hotel establishment is not responsible for that. However, hotel management may accommodates Haram stuff like alcohol etc. But this has nothing to do with whoever doesn't want to drink alcohol or fornication.

In Nigeria, we have different definition of hotel from day 1. We have the idea that hotel primary use is for Haram activities. If you travel to another country where you don't know anyone, you have to rent hotel. You possibly carry your Quran with you too. And I do this. I rent hotels all the time and I see their Bible placed in the drawer on the side.
