Payment of zakat ( tax ) is very essential in a state under Islamic authority for poverty alleviation. Zakat is compulsory for Muslims only while Jizya is a form of zakat that must be paid by non Muslims living in a Islamic state and it is compulsory as well. Anyone who refuses to pay zakat or Jizya is an enemy of state and they must be sanctioned.



It is very important to pay Zakah, after the Prophet (Sallalahu Alaihi Wasallam), passed away the muslims stopped paying Zakah, Abu Bakr (ra) then decalared war on them.


Verse 9:29 of Surah at-tauba is probably the intentionally most misinterpreted verse of the Quran. This is what it says: –

“Fight those who believe not in God nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by God and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth , (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.” S. 9:29 Y. Ali

Dear brother mansour, I totally understand you when you say that this verse promotes violence on a cursory glance. But if you read it carefully you’ll find that it doesn’t. I hope you will be patient enough to be with me throughout the end of this article.

The verse says “Fight those who believe not in God nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by God and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth”.
My question to you brother. Does this verse stop here? No it doesnt. It continues and gives the actual reason as to the fighting. This is the continuation: – “until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued”.

1. PAYING JIZYA IS THE CONDITION FOR FIGHTING. THIS STATEMENT IS TOTALLY IGNORED OR OVERLOOKED WHEN LEVYING THIS ALLEGATION OF VIOLENCE ON MUSLIMS.

This verse doesn’t ask the Muslims to do mindless slaughter as the media portrays or deceives. It gives the Muslims the permission to fight only those non-Muslims who do not pay jizya – the state tax. And we all know that jizya is applicable only in an Islamic state. Neither India, nor US or Britain are Islamic states. So to put this verse as an excuse for what happened there only shows how biased, unknowledgable and unfair the media is and it hurts us deeply.

But offering can be payed online. Trust Nigerian pastors.

Mrsoundoro:
The Minister of State, Niger Delta Affairs has called on Nigerians to collectively ask for forgiveness.

Festus Keyamo took to his twitter page to react to the coronavirus pandemic in the country.

Also, in his tweet, he revealed that we have distorted God’s word to suit human weakness and satisfy our greed.

Furthermore, he called out recalcitrant pastors and asked us to work and pray.

Mikel4xrist:
I've been wondering to myself, why hasn't any Nigerian pastor done a miracle of recent.

Covid-19 is ravaging the society and it's only the hand of God that can save a country like Nigeria. But suddenly, all our pastors have gone into self quarantine, leaving 44 really sick people to suffer in the hospital.

Can't one of them barge into the NCDC and do miracle service so all of the victims can be healed? Or in short all of them should combine and do this, so that faith in God can rise.

If Apostle Paul was alive, he'd have done something about this since. Even if it's to prophesy the right chemicals that can cure this.

Pastors, do something. Don't let science take the glory

First off, very interesting OP @ xpanciated.
I agree with most of what you wrote.

Samunique,
Very well written.
Just scrolling down the Religion section looking at the titles here on Nairaland, makes me sorrowfully pity Nigerians.
When I think I've seen it all, something new pops up beyond my imagination.
I agree with you though that the enemy and his minions have been waiting for the chance to fully blame the religion of Christianity...note that I said Christianity....for what's occurring.
Remember:


I haven't experienced folks here in the U.S. blaming the church. Of course Nigeria would mock and blame the church because there is a blatant war specifically against Christianity there.
I read about it daily right here on Nairaland.
Which I find so interesting because, if "religion" is to blame and Islam is the predominate religion over there then....blame would have to go....um...hmmm.....oh nevermind before I get censored or threatened.
God is trying to say something.?

This coronavirus is going to make a lot of people atheist and those that are already one prove the point of it all.. it's a shame!

GamalNasser:
I have respect for this man but he got this wrong

MisterKings:
Wait

public awareness service where they will still pay tithe and offering abi.

Sorry are these people mad?

This ur pastors cannot offer to buy hand sanitizers for their memebers or build quarantine centers.

They no born them well to go over to where there are infected people to offer healing.

White people who don't believe in God or worship so called Satan via Illuminati are the ones providing help. They are the ones working day and night for our well being.

No, these pastors will wear white and white like Jesus apprentice and be telling u zobo and una go dey drink.

It is after this Corona virus pandemic we go see Koro Koro who be who.

Maybe last last we shall all go back to our juju that at least works when we call them.

Rubbish
