Ofcos Yoruba believe in one supreme God which is in three form. And does that make Yoruba traditional religion monotheism? Yoruba traditionalists believe in gods, orishas.

Olodumare is the same as Eledumare, even wizkid sang a song Eledumare.

Now I can see you are not serious.
Wizkid sang Eledumare;Is wizkid not a kid like u and many others?
I am telling you the Yoruba supreme being is Olodumare and Eledumare is just a corrupted version(it shows you've been reading wikipedia articles which are just mere opinions and are subjected to mistake).


Since you've agreed the Yoruba supreme God is Olohun and the Yoruba Islamic adherents choose to refer to Allah as Olohun in Yoruba.
You can see it makes no difference, you've been running around in circles with wikipedia opinions.

Nice one, I've always loved ASA When was d dong released?

No tribe started with monotheism and not all tribe today are monotheistic.

No tribe started with monotheism you say.





How did you think the first man reacted when he first discovered he could breathe, he could walk, he saw d sun.
e.t.c




Man is wired to believe in a superior being, this is the basic nature of man.
If man can't handle d basic pressure of life, it gives him confidence and a kind of joy reverting his matters to the superior being.

tintingz:
What sort of question is this?

Islam is monotheistic religion, so ofcos they have one supreme God. Some polytheistic religion believe in a supreme deity along side other deities. Your question should be do Arabs during pre-islamic era were monotheistic? The answer is NO.

In Yoruba belief the supreme God is three in one (Eledumare, Olorun and Olofi) just like the Christian trinity God head.

I knew what I asked you and my question was right, we are discussing the relationship between Allah and the Yoruba Olohun here.



Actually you have no idea what you are talking about, d wikipedia article you quoted about Oluhn being 3 in 1 manifestation is balderdash(It seems you are not even Yoruba or a Yoruba that doesn't even understand d tenets if his culture.

There is only one supreme being in the Yoruba religion and it is Olohun all other names such as Olodumare and co are mere attributes(there is nothing like Eledumare;it is Olodumare)and the break down of the name has some meaning.


You keep talking out of points and arguing about what you don't know.



This is what I know and I'm very sure of.

Show me a single tribe that started as monotheistic in belief in history.

Albaqir, do you agree with this?

Show me a single tribe that didn't start with monotheism and write out their pattern of thoughts over the centuries.

tintingz:
Supreme : Superior to all others.

And you asked, in what way is unconnected to Allah? Lol.. People make their Gods to be supreme.

There are over thousands supreme Gods in every beliefs and Allah is just one them.

I can make unicorn a supreme God, you shouldn't have problem with it.

How many supreme Gods are in Islam and How many are in the Yoruba religion, this is what we are discussing for now.




We can talk about other beliefs in other threads.

tintingz:
Olorun is a supreme God, the ruler of heaven(oni orun) and he's the life giver.

The supreme God in Yoruba religion have three manifestation, Eledumare : Creator, Olorun : Ruler of heavens and Olofi: the conduit between heaven and earth.


I don't really know much about Yoruba beliefs, what I know is they believe in orishas who are the sources from Olorun.

There is nothing like hell in Yoruba religion, they believe in reincarnation and karma.

They don't believe in Adam and Eve story, ile Ife is where creation started.

What do you understand by the word supreme?
And in what way is it unconnected to Allah?

Nice one My NYSC camp was at Agwu back then That place is so hilly and cold.

tintingz:
You might be somehow right here but you are wrong along the way.

First of all you should know that all tribes in the world were all polytheist before people started deviating from beliefs.

Yes, polytheism and monotheism have a supreme deity but not all these supreme deities are creator. Eg in Greek beliefs, Zeus is a supreme God the king of Olympus but not the creator, Prometheus is the creator, Zeus even has parents and siblings like Poseidon, Hades, Hera to name the few. Zeus and Prometheus are even enemies.

In Yoruba beliefs, Olorun is the supreme God, the king of heaven but not the creator, Obatala his second son is the creator, although Olorun is the life giver.

In Israel, El is the supreme God of Canaanite religion not Yahweh, they are different, Yahweh is just a god of war.

In a nutshell, not all supreme God are creators, supreme Gods in polytheism religions have parents, wives and children.

Yes ofcos, you can use their names but bear in mind that the original characteristics nature of these Gods are not the same as your God.

Well I've respond to this above.

Now forget about Prometheus and Zeus, let's come back to the matter of Discourse.




What do you understand about the Yoruba Olohun?

What do you understand about the Yoruba Traditional religion?

Can you explain the concept of Yoruba Traditional belief?

Yes, no one should think of it as an anomaly.

It's actually an anomaly, cos it deviates from the societal standard of right hand usage.




That is what an anomaly means

Medieval thinking bro.

Are you sure?

Nobody was born right handed or left handed.

Using our right or left hand or for some both is a habit we've developed over the years.
From our cradle right to this present moment of our life.





Without saying/writing much, being a leftie is simply a bad habit that has been left to develop overtime either unchecked or the unwillingness of the user to take to corrections.

Anybody can develop using either hands at any particular time in their life, a friend broke his right arm back then in secondary school, he automotically switched to the left(he had no choice) and even wrote his exams with it.

Yes, not all spiritual beings are jinns.



Yes, following what they say wont amount to shirk & you should also pray about it. Somethings do not conform with our nature though we might like them.

Those are the types of people with clairvoyant abilities, some might not even be humans & besides GOD can send help through anybody.

Jazaka lahu khayran.

Something not conforming with one's nature is a spiritual aspect that the mechanical readers/followers will also like to deny.
Thanks.

JAHL..thats what u are. do you think ALLAH translated as olohun, oluwa ( language is the problem? ).. its a matter of aqeedah.. i w0nt be suprised if you do n0t understand. kini sufi mo? even ur tijani and niyas na c0nfirm jahl

shut up you are a kafir for typing in English ,something that is not documented in Kittab or Sunnah.






Mind you, it was Sufi that revived the Sunnah of folding of arms during salat after it had been abandoned for a very long time.
Courtesy of Sheikh Ibrahim Niyass.





You follow a guy man named Janata, who said his own father will end up in hell, he was imprisoned in Saudi Arabia or was it Egypt for misinterpretation of d kitaab and hadith, he was later deported back to Nigeria , so that he won't spread his ignorance further.


From Nigeria, we will also deport him to somewhere else, d ignorance he's spread is already enough.

Lol.
This death stroke is something else.
Deathstroke007 is a kafir because the prophet never wrote anything in English and there is no evidence of writing in English language in the Kitaab or Sunnah.
So death stroke has no evidence of typing in English, that makes him a kafir
Since he is a Kafir, he'll automatically end up in Jahanam or lasoo or any of the 7 degrees of hell, depending on his level of Kufar

I don't think there will be any difference, just mode of calculation will change . What you obtain over 5.0 scale and what you obtain over 4.0 will be d same after careful conversion.
Just a difference in range stuff, and I think it's a welcome development, we won't need to convert our GPA to the foreign scale anymore when applying to foreign Units for advance degrees.�
