wristbangle:
The thing is there are cute ladies with high intelligence just that most if not all are taken.

Going for a pepper seller with good intellect is fine but that illiterate behaviour will be there as to bring her up to your taste will be quite challenging.

Just that it's a pity some Behind ladies are busy building their physical appearance while deeming away their intellect.

I once ask a pretty lady the capital of England, she told me "UK"

I asked do u know ban-ki moon? She said.. Yes he is an actor. #SMH#

Politics › Why Dasuki will end up in prison - Buhari by yashau(op): 2:12pm On Mar 06, 2016

President Muhammadu Buhari
has again expressed his
displeasure at how former
National Security Adviser, NSA, Col
Sambo Dasuki (rtd) handled
funds meant for purchase of
arms under the Goodluck
Jonathan administration.
Buhari in an interview with Al
Jazeera television aired on
Sunday and monitored by DAILY
POST, said the “sharing” of the
funds was responsible for the
boldness at which the Boko
Haram sect operated in recent
years.
He was reacting to a question by
the interviewer on controversial
use of security votes by office
holders.
“Why not scrap these votes
which end up in opaque
destinations?” the interviewer
quipped.
Responding, Buhari said while
security votes of his office, his
deputy’s, and a number of
officials in the executive arm had
been greatly reduced, plans were
on to extend such to states.
“We are trying to recover such
used for personal purposes.
“That is why we are prosecuting
those who shared monies meant
to procure hardware and
software for the military.
“It is easy to say we have not
recorded a high-profile
conviction but there must be
court processes.
“However, with the revelations
coming out from the arms probe,
you can imagine where Dasuki
will end up.”
It would be recalled that a
Federal Capital Territory, FCT, High
Court sitting in Abuja on Friday
struck out Dasuki’s application
seeking to stop his trial pending
his release from detention.
Justice Peter Affen held that the
former NSA was unable to prove
that the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission, EFCC, was
holding him after he was
granted bail.
Affen maintained EFCC did not in
any way acted contrary to court
order because it did not have
Dasuki in its custody.

Politics › Gov -Oshiomhole Slams Melaye, Says He Is A Lunatic Without A Matrimonial Life by yashau(op): 3:40am On Mar 05, 2016

dams Oshiomhole, governor
of Edo state, has criticised
Dino Melaye for being so
“hollow” as to delve into his
matrimonial life despite failing
to keep one of his own.
While making his contribution
on Wednesday to the debate on
a motion regarding the need
for Nigerians to patronise
made-in-Nigeria goods, Melaye
had said: “I want to celebrate
the made-in-Nigeria senator for
bringing this motion. In
considering the made-in-
Nigeria goods, we must look at
enabling factors that will
necessitate the made in Nigeria
goods.
“It’s beyond having one made-
in-Nigeria attire and you have
over 70 Tom Fords and Louis
Vuitton in your wardrobe. We
must reduce the allocation for
made-in-Nigeria goods and
services to the basics. “What are
those factors militating against
the production of these goods?
We must tackle them. We must
also begin to look at our
legislation then we will begin to
talk about made-in-Nigeria
goods.
will also move in order to
encourage the made-in-Nigeria
products in Nigeria, begin to
talk about made-in-Nigeria
women. Apologies to my uncle,
the governor of Edo state, we
must, as a people, stop paying
dowry in dollars and pounds. It
is time for my colleagues here
to become born again.”
Displeased with the comments,
Oshimohole replied on Friday,
saying Melaye “only displayed
his hollowness” by delving into
a matter as private as his
marriage to his heartthrob.
“Our attention has been drawn
to the unprovoked verbal
assault launched by one Senator
Dino Melaye on the Governor of
Edo State, Comrade Adams
Oshiomhole, while making a
contribution on the floor of the
Senate on the need to patronize
made-in-Nigeria goods,”
Oshiomhole said in a statement
by Peter Okhiria, his chief press
secretary.
“As a ‘nephew’ of the Governor
and members of the same party,
we expected Senator Melaye to
tender an unreserved public
apology to the Comrade
Governor, to no avail. “It is an
open secret that Senator Melaye
cannot maintain a decent
matrimonial home hence he
could descend to this
pedestrian level of using the
hallowed chambers to
‘cargorise’ women as if they
were pieces of items for
purchase. Any responsible
individual that is truly worth to
be called a Senator, a position
that convokes respect, decorum
and decent public conduct,
should know the limits of his
verbal diarrhoea.
“The liberty of free speech
guaranteed in the hallowed
chambers does not impose
lunacy on anyone to disparage
other Nigerians, let alone pry
into their matrimony in a very
derisive manner. We had
intended to ignore this
uncomplimentary comment as
one of the several empty
displays of the Senator, but the
fact that it tends to reduce
women to pieces of tissue calls
for this response. “As we
probed into Dino Melaye’s
humanity, we were reminded
that he is a man known for his
vainglorious rodomontade and
the childish display of his
ostentatious lifestyle
complements his love for
foreign items.
Many of such eurocentric
mentality he has persistently
displayed on social media, to
underscore his materialistic
eccentricity, hence his dialectical
opposition to made-in-Nigeria
goods. “But an attempt at
making women wear the garb
of goods to be picked off the
shelves was to take the issue to
a ridiculous and irresponsible
level. By delving into the private
affair and marriage of the
Comrade Governor, Senator
Melaye has exposed himself as a
simpleton and a court jester
whose words and tactlessness
cannot be taken seriously by
matured people. “We advise
that Melaye should mend his
ways with his ex-wife and
concubines before coming to
the village square to display his
crass ignorance and emptiness
to the Nigerian people.
“If he has anything to offer,
Dino Melaye should concentrate
on making good laws for the
people of Nigeria rather than
descend to a ridiculous level,
thus displaying to the whole
world his unworthiness to sit in
the hallowed chambers of the
Nigerian Senate.”http://saharareporters.com/2016/03/04/gov-oshiomhole-slams-dino-melaye-says-he-lunatic-without-matrimonial-life

Politics › Governor Okowa's Message To Obasanjo At 79 by yashau(op): 3:16am On Mar 05, 2016

– Governor Ifeanyi Okowa prayed for Olusegun Obasanjo, at 79

– The governor extolled Obasanjo for his contribution to Nigeria’s progress

Delta state governor, Senator (Dr.) Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, has felicitated with former president of Nigeria, chief Olusegun Obasanjo, as he turns 79 years.

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa wished former president Olusegun Obasanjo well at 79
In a statement issued by his chief press secretary, Charles Ehiedu Aniagwu, Okowa prayed for the continued grace of good health and mind for chief Obasanjo.

“Chief Obasanjo, undoubtedly, exudes an inspiration very much needed at this stage of Nigeria’s socio-political and economic development and it is not for nothing that God has kept him as one of Nigeria’s guides,” Okowa said.

Okowa, who observed that chief Obasanjo does not beg issues said Nigeria needs such forthright leader, at all levels, if the country will see itself out of the woods of its myriad of challenges.

He recounted chief Obasanjo’s bold developmental legacies that dotted the Nigerian landscape from his days as a military head of state and as the civilian president between 1999 and 2007 and charged current leaders, both at the federal and state levels to buy into the elder statesman’s philosophy.

“Dear Chief Obasanjo, the remarkable achievements of your first and second sojourns as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria are indelible in the Oil & Gas, Steel, Banking as well as the Communication Sectors of the Nigeria Economy.

“In a life that has seen you become a Statesman amidst your achievements in public service and political endeavours, there is great cause for you, members of your family, your many associates, protégés and well-wishers to thank Almighty God for His benevolence upon you.

“As you deservedly celebrate this landmark, it is my prayer that Almighty God continue to bless you with robust health and many more years of happiness.

“I join your family, friends and well-wishers to thank Almighty God for His continued guidance, protection and provision for you in the past 79 years of a life of forthrightness and outstanding patriotism with which He has blessed you,” he said.

According to Aniagwu, the governor wished chief Obasanjo, a very happy 79th birthday celebration and prayed that God almighty grant him many more years of good health and strength to continue with his devotion to making Nigeria and Africa a better place for the people and all who live in it.

President Muhammadu Buhari in a statement issued by his media aide, Femi Adesina, warmly congratulated ex-president chief Olusegun Obasanjo in an early message for his 79 birthday on March 5, Saturday.

The president affirms that Obasanjo, who is approaching the octogenarian cycle has contributed immensely to the institutionalization of democracy in Nigeria and Africa through his personal sacrifice, extensive local and international networks, and God-given wisdom.

Politics › President Muhammadu Buhari Says He Is Embarrassed Over 2016 Budget Padding by yashau(op): 5:09pm On Feb 25, 2016

Vanguard in its report on
February 24 says President
Muhammadu Buhari has
publicly agreed that he was
embarrassed with the drama
that played out with the
2016 budget he personally
presented to the National
Assembly.
The president during a
session with Nigerian
community in Saudi Arabia
where he is currently on
official visit, disclosed that
the budget proposal
submitted to the National
Assembly December last year
had been utterly doctored.
He condemned the distortion
and vowed to deal decisively
with the masterminds.
President Buhari also
revealed to the Nigerian
community that as a result of
the sudden crude oil fall in
the global market, Nigeria
would return to agriculture
and mining development to
improve the country’s
economy.
Vanguard newspaper
Vanguard newspaper
Daily Sun also has it in its
report that President Buhari
during a meeting with
Nigerian community in
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on
February 23 promised to
severely punish all those
involved in the “padding” of
the 2016 budget, describing
their actions as
disappointing and
embarrassing.
Buhari said those behind the
distortion are the people
with “entrenched interests,”
and pointed out that the
unauthorised alterations had
completely changed the
document from the one he
presented to the National
Assembly.
“The culprits will not go
unpunished. I have been a
military governor, petroleum
minister, military Head of
State and headed the
Petroleum Trust Fund. Never
had I heard the words
“budget padding.” Our
Minister of Budget and
National Planning did a great
job with his team. The
minister became almost half
his size during the time,
working night and day to get
the bud¬get ready, only for
some people to pad it. What
he gave us was not what
was finally being debated. It
is very embarrassing and
disappointing. We will not
allow those who did it to go
unpunished,” he said.
Daily Sun newspaper

The president also assured
his Nigerian audience that
his government was
working towards fulfilling its
campaign promises,
especially on security,
unemployment, and
corruption. He reiterated his
administration’s zero
tolerance for corruption,
saying the war against
corruption was a
monumental task that he
was determined to tackle
successfully.

Politics › I Didn’t Want My Parents Dead— Captured Female Suicide Bomber In Dikwa by yashau(op): 4:55am On Feb 12, 2016

A female suicide bomber who
was recruited to take part
in last Tuesday’s bomb attacks
in Dikwa, Borno State, has
explained why she decided not
to detonate her own explosives.
Close to 60 people perished in
the Dikwa attack after two
young female suicide bombers
detonated themselves at a
refugee camp for internally
displaced persons (IDPs).
Eyewitnesses said the two
bombers detonated their
improvised explosive devices
(IEDs) at a kitchen in a refugee
camp. The explosives went off
at 5.45 p.m. as refugees in the
camp queued up for breakfast.
A third would-be suicide
bomber, who did not detonate
the explosives strapped to her
body, was arrested by some
civilians working with security
agents as she ran from the
scene of the mayhem.
One source, who was among a
group that caught the young
woman, told SaharaReporters
that the teenager was weeping
bitterly and asked people to stay
away from her, disclosing that
an IED was strapped to her
body.
According to our source, when
the young woman was asked
why she failed to detonate her
explosives, she said she was
shocked to see so many people
dead, adding that she did not
want her parents, who were in
the camp, to be killed.”
A Borno State government
official, Ahmed Satomi, also
confirmed the incident while
speaking to reporters on
Wednesday at the State
Specialist Hospital in Maiduguri,
the capital of Borno State.
“One of the suicide bombers
was arrested and confessed,”
said Mr. Satomi. He added that
the arrested teenager
confessed to soldiers that she
declined to detonate her bomb
in order not to have a hand in
an operation that might kill her
parents.
The IDP camp in Dikwa is the
largest refugee camp in Borno
State, with more than 53,000
people across five local
government areas staying there.
SaharaReporters learned that
58 people were confirmed dead
in last Tuesday’s attacks. In
addition, 78 people sustained
serious injuries when the twin
blasts hit the camp.

Buhari was speaking about the
progress Nigeria did in the war
against the deadly Boko Haram
group since his assumption of
office on May 29, 2015.
The Nigerian leader stated that in
cooperation with the
Multinational Joint Task Force, the
Nigerian Armed Forces have
wiped out the sect from the
country into “fall-back positions”.
He said: “They are currently not
holding any territory today as we
speak.”

Buhari also told Ban Ki Moon that
Nigeria will continually pursue
world action to reverse the
drying up of Lake Chad and save
the lives of those who count on it
for living.
“With all due respect to our
neighbours, Nigeria has been
worst hit by the drying up of the
Lake Chad and we are hoping
that the global community will
support the process of halting
the drying up of the lake,” the
president added.
On his own part, the Secretary-
General praised Buhari for his
courage in fighting the
insurgency and corruption.
Ban Ki-Moon admitted that
Nigeria has made surprising
progress against terrorism since
President Buhari took the office,

Sports › Liverpool V Arsenal Premier League Preview. by yashau(op): 8:21am On Jan 13, 2016

Arsenal manager Arsene
Wenger has warned his players
they are in for a "ferocious
battle" at Anfield on
Wednesday as Liverpool's
recent injury crisis begins to
ease.
The Barclays Premier League
leaders travel to Merseyside on
the back of a 3-1 win over
Sunderland in the FA Cup, while
they have not lost against
Liverpool in the last four matches
between the sides.
The fixture is one of the
competition's more traditionally
entertaining contests, with the
last nine top-flight meetings
between the clubs at Anfield
producing 35 goals.
Arsenal will hope their recent
record against Liverpool can help
continue a fine run of form that
has brought three straight
victories in all competitions,
while Wenger's men have been
beaten just once in their past 10.
But the Frenchman issued a
word of warning to his side as
Arsenal seek to keep their title
challenge on track.
"Momentum creates confidence
and that's vital at this level," he
told reporters. "Overall, in
December and January we have
been consistent and that's
important as we go into an
important part of the season
with many big games.
"Consistency is a good basis for
belief. Every time we go to
Anfield we face a team who are
up for it and it's always a
ferocious battle.
"[Liverpool manager] Jurgen
Klopp has the personality to do
well there, I don't think you can
explain their injuries by the
intensity of [Klopp's] game. [The
challenge we face is] to play our
game at a good pace but we are
used to that pressing. It is not
just Liverpool who do that."
Wenger is able to welcome back
midfielder Tomas Rosicky (knee)
for the encounter, while back-up
goalkeeper David Ospina (groin)
could return to the squad. But
Alexis Sanchez (hamstring),
Danny Welbeck (knee) and Jack
Wilshere (ankle) are still out.
Klopp has been dealing with an
injury crisis that forced him into
naming an entirely changed XI
for their 2-2 FA Cup draw at
League Two Exeter City on Friday,
and he has signed Queens Park
Rangers centre-back Steven
Caulker, who had been on loan at
Southampton this season, to
ease their concerns in defence.
Read: Liverpool bolster defence
with loan deal for Caulker >>
Klopp continues to be without
Martin Skrtel, Dejan Lovren and
Philippe Coutinho (all hamstring).
But the Reds are hopeful of
having centre-backs Kolo Toure
and Mamadou Sakho (knee)
available, while Jordon Ibe,
Jordan Henderson and James
Milner could also feature as
Liverpool seek to end their
inconsistent recent top-flight
form.
The fixture is part of a tough
double-header with rivals
Manchester United set to visit
Anfield on Sunday, and Klopp has
urged his side to stand up and
be counted.
"It's always a big challenge to
play against clubs like Arsenal
and Manchester United," he said.
"But we have shown a plan
against good footballing teams.
"We have to make good
decisions in the right moment.
We are looking forward to these
games."

Mignolet, Clyne, Jose Enrique,

The atmosphere has remained tense daily at the Anambra state Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), since the news of the arrest and detention of Chief Olisa Metuh circulated.

The pictures here show members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Youth wing drawn from all the 326 wards and 21 councils of Anambra state in a peaceful demonstration at the party’s state headquarters in Awka on Thursday, Jan 7, 2016.

They carried placards critical of the All Progressives Congress (APC) led Federal Government’s seeming systematic incarceration of key vocal Igbo sons under various guises, especially PDP spokesman, Chief Olisa Metuh and the IPOB’s Dr Nnamdi Kanu.

They threatened to continue the protests and sit-in daily until they are set free unconditionally.

Politics › WHAT INDEED IS RULE OF LAW?- Written by Kay Lord by yashau(op): 11:54pm On Jan 05, 2016

I remember one of President
Obama's key promise during his
first term campaign;
"I will shut down Guatanamo Bay
prisons. It is hypocritical of
America to be preaching
democracy and rule of law to the
world yet own a facility where
suspects are kept without trial
for many years. The shutting
down of that illegal detention
centre would be one of my first
executive order once I am sworn
in as the President of the United
States. " (Paraphrased)
As I write this, Obama is nearing
the end of his second term in
office and Guatanamo prison is
still standing and the US are still
detaining high risk suspects
there, some for upward of 10 to
15 years without trial or
prosecution in any law court
anywhere in the world.
Obama came to office as a green
horn in security matters. He did
not know that security issues are
not subject to campaign rhetoric.
I remember John McCain, his
Republican challenger, a war
veteran and a Senator of over 30
years, who had chaired several
Senate security committees in the
US Senate telling Obama he does
not know what he's talking
about!
You will wonder why Obama
kept silent on Guatanamo till
now? Now, he knows better.
That's why I laugh reading
Facebook 'activist' and
unrepentant Buhari bashers
pontificating and sermonising
over the rule of law after what
President Buhari said about
granting bail for individuals that
have serious case against the
state that pertains to security
issues.
What folks don't understand is
that the rule of law itself is
subject to the rule and right of a
nation when it pertains to the
security and wellbeing of the
people of a country against that
of a few individuals. That's why,
the USA that calls themselves the
land of freedom and the bastion
of democracy in the world do not
care about the rule of law when
it concerns the security of her
people. That supercede any rule
of law. Cry from today to eternity,
you are just wasting your time
and effort, America will ignore
you and do what they have to do.
Check this; the US flouted every
international law when the
President of the US ordered
special combat forces to go into
the territory of another
sovereign nation, Pakistan in
order to get Osama bin Laden.
Not only was Osama ordered to
be killed extra judicially but his
corpse was even buried at sea.
When I read a book detailing the
preparation for that mission by
one of the members of that
special force that entered into
Pakistan under the cover of the
night, you will realize that when
it comes to the security and
safety of the United States, they
are ready to flout any law. Now,
do you want to accuse Obama of
illegality? Has Pakistan sued
America at the World court? Also,
please who amongst the
vuvuzelas shouting themselves
hoarse on Facebook will pick up
the gauntlet and sue the
President of the US for killing
Osama bin Laden extra judicially?
Ohhh don't they think Osama bin
Laden has fundamental right to
fair hearing? Yeye people!
One of the reasons I supported
president Buhari came to fore
during his media chat. I am an
advocate of the rule of law and I
believe in it but personally I
believe we have to draw a line
when the rule of law comes into
conflict with security, safety and
the well being of citizens of a
given nation. You can't flagrantly
abuse the security and well being
of the people and come around
to shout about rule of law when
it's time to face the
consequences of your action. Our
judicial process must be
overhauled to conform with the
reality of the moment. America
knows this better. For once, this
country has a President that is
ready to lead! It's not that PMB
does not believe in the rule of
law. After all, this is a man that
was rigged out of election on
about 3 occasions but followed
the rule of law by going all the
way up to the Supreme Court to
seek redress.
What the President is saying to
whoever cares to listen is that,
when it comes to the safety, well
being and progress of this
nation no individual would use
the rule of law to escape justice.
That's why he said point blank
concerning the Shi'ite issue that
you can't have a state inside a
state! It's either folks are ready
to shape up or ship out! This
country has been thrown to the
dogs, it's high time we take it
back and put it on the path of
sanctity. Enough of lilly livered
leadership, it's time to run this
country according to dictates of
the time we live in.
If you don't like it, sorry, we have
a country to run and you will
have to excuse us.

Politics › I Turned Down 400m Car Proposal,nass Can't Spend 4.5b To Buy Cars-buhari by yashau(op): 9:07am On Jan 01, 2016*

President Buhari says he will be
exploring the possibility of
stopping National Assembly
members from spending N4.5
billion on car purchase when
they still collect transportation
allowances. He said he turned
down a N400 million car
proposal for the presidency
"I turned down a N400million
car proposal for the presidency.
I said the cars I have are good
enough for 10 years. We are
having problem with the
National Assembly regarding
TSA. I have to holding a closed-
door meeting with the National
Assembly regarding the cars
they are trying to buy. I hope
they haven't bought them yet.
They can't buy cars for
themselves and also take money
in car loans. I can't see the
National assembly paying 4.5
Billion Naira to buy cars after
collecting transport allowance. I
will revisit that story. We have to
live within our means."he said.http://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2015/12/i-turned-down-n400m-car-proposal-for.html?m=1

Politics › Arms Deal: EFCC Set To Question Goodluck Jonathan by yashau(op): 7:23am On Dec 22, 2015*

The former president Goodluck
Jonathan is set to undergo
questioning from operatives of
the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission (EFCC) over
the notorious arms deal
scandal.
Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan
Reports suggest that the anti-
graft agency may secretly write
to the ex-president whose name
it claims has consistently come
up in the investigation into the
scandal.
The former national security
adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.),
was reported to have said he
disbursed funds from his office
based on the instructions of the
former president.
An EFCC source said the agency
has no plans to invite the former
president but “we may write him
to tell us his own side of the
story because his name has been
coming up in our
investigations?” The Punch
reports.

Newspaper Returns 9 Million
Naira To FG
The agency claims it needs the
clearance of the president to
write to Jonathan.
In a related development, the
EFCC may have concluded
arrangements to invite some
chieftains of the Peoples
Democratic Party for questioning.
Those expected to be summoned
are the former board of trustees
chairman of the party, Chief Tony
Anenih, a former deputy national
chairman, Chief Bode George,
and others who were alleged to
have received part of the funds
meant for arms procurement.
“You see, this is an investigation.
In a situation like this, the
commission has a thin chance of
not inviting those whose names
have been thrown up.
“They have to be invited to make
clarifications; it does not
necessarily mean that they have
been indicted but it is only a
standard procedure for them to
appear to make clarifications
where necessary.
“I think by now, Anenih, Bode
George and all those who were
mentioned during the
investigation should have been
invited but the commission has
not been given the directive to
pick them up.
“They know what they are doing.
Anytime from now, possibly this
week, they will be invited,”
The Punch quotes an EFCC source
as saying.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian federal
government has said there is no
need for frivolous plea bargains
for those involved in the arms
deal scam.https://www.naij.com/672984-arms-deal-efcc-set-question-ex-president-goodluck-jonathan.html

Governor Fayose on his way from Akure had a stop over at Elegberun Market in Ikere Ekiti to have a look at the construction work going on in the market. He then took time to buy some soup ingredients from the market women who were more than delighted to sell to him.

Christianity Etc › 13 Reasons Why Adebayor Dumped Christianity For Islam by yashau(op): 12:16pm On Aug 03, 2015

That Togolese footballer, Emmanuel Adebayor converted to Islam is no longer news. The news had gone viral and the Aston Villa bound striker had also confirmed it. Adebayor has now come out to fully address the issue by giving reasons why he converted to Islam. He justified his new found faith by saying Muslims are like Jesus and also described them as” truer followers of Christ”. Read below (Source: The Herald): 1. Jesus (pbuh) taught that there is only One God and Only God should be worshipped as taught in Deut 6:4, Mark 12:29. Muslims also believe this as taught in the Qur’an verse 4:171. 2. Jesus (pbuh) didn’t eat pork as taught in Leviticus 11:7 , and neither do Muslims as taught in the Qur’an verse 6:145. 3. Jesus (pbuh) greeted with the words “as salaamu alaikum” (Peace be with you) in John 20:21. Muslims also greet each other this way. 4. Jesus (pbuh) always said “God Willing” (inshallah), Muslims say this too before doing anything as taught in the Qur’an verses 18:23-24. 5. Jesus (pbuh) washed his face, hands, and feet before praying. The Muslims do the same. 6. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible prayed with their head to the ground (see Matthew26:39). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verse 3:43. 7. Jesus (pbuh) had a beard and wore a throbe. It is Sunnah for Muslim men to do the same. 8. Jesus (pbuh) followed the law and believed in all the prophets, (see Matthew 5:17). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verses 3:84, and 2:285. 9. Jesus’ mother Maryam (pbut) dressed modestly by fully covering her body and wearing a headscarf (hijab) as found in 1 Timothy 2:9, Genesis 24:64-65, and Corinthians 11:6. Muslim women modestly dress the same as taught in the Qur’an verse 33:59. 10. Jesus (pbuh) and other prophets of the Bible fasted up to 40 days (see Exodus 34:28, Daniel 10:2-6. 1Kings 19:8, and Matthew 4:1-Muslims do so also during the month of Ramadan. Muslims are required to fast the full obligatory 30 days (see Qur’an 2:183), and others take it a step further by fasting an additional 6 days to increase their rewards. 11. Jesus (pbuh) taught to say “Peace to this house” when entering it (see Luke 10:5), and to also greet the people in the house with “peace be unto you”. Muslims do exactly what Jesus did and taught. When we enter our homes and the homes of others we say “Bismillah” and also greet with “as salaamu alaikum” (peace be upon you) as taught in the Qur’an verse 24:61. 12. Jesus (pbuh) was circumcised. Circumcision is 1 of the 5 fitrah in Islam, so Muslim men are required to be circumcised. According to the Bible in Luke 2:21, Jesus was eight days old when he was circumcised. In the Torah, Allah/God stated to the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) that it is an “Everlasting covenant” (see Genesis 17:13). In the Qur’an verse 16:123 Muslims are required to follow the religion of Abraham. The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said, “The Prophet Abraham circumcised himself when he was eighty years old.” (see Sahih hadith Bukhari, Muslim, and Ahmad). 13. Jesus (pbuh) spoke aramaic and called God”Elah”, which is pronounced the same as “Allah”. Aramaic is an ancient, Biblical language. It is one of the Semitic languages that also include Hebrew, Arabic, Ethiopic and the ancient Assyrian and Babylonian language of Akkadian. The Aramaic”Elah” and the Arabic “Allah” are the same.
