tiarabubu:

Unfortunately, you are not a very good debater that is why I seldom reply you. In your haste to reply you very easily lose context, focus and synergy. I will make an exception today and give a short reply for the sake of your minions. And by the way, the answer to Muslim's missteps is not "Non-Muslims did it too" or "Non-Muslims caused it".


Unfortunately, comparing the biased action of a University with that of a whole State like kano confirms your lack of ability to balance an argument. Unfortunately for you, what you are saying this has been a reoccuring complaint of the Non-Muslim community in places like UDU and even KSU. It is no qualms for Kastina state to build 34 of Mosques with government funds (over a quarter of a billion naira) while some of its citizens are non-muslims and it has more pressing socioeconomic problems! But I let it be so you go figure.


The resistance to Islamic banking was about the CBN using government money to promote a bank that is based on religion. This was the reason for the opposition - e.g. setting up of "expert Council" within the CBN made up of Islamic Scholars, using CBN money to promote the bank etc. That was CAN's official position. Of course, others misunderstood, misinterpreted and of course even some Christians misunderstood CAN's official position. CAN's position carried the day as CBN allowed private individuals to fund the bank and did not carry out that misstep of using government money to spend on a religious based bank. And crucially, there were no burning of mosques and murders etc during the Islamic banking debate.

As per your opposition to drinking, thats your problem. As bad as it is, as long as it is not illegal, you can only persuade people through education and reason not some brute force 16 century style of coercion.

As per people not covering up... What is your idea of covering up? If a lady dresses normally and decently and you are still hot under the collar because of exposed hair or face, check yourself. Its your twisted perverted mind that is the problem and not the girl.

As per the Christmas tree, you are joking right? When Muslims were at the helm and bought hundreds of goats and distributed during sallah at the government expense, who complained? Did you know the Minister of FCT and almost all northern governors distributed rams with government money too? Who protested? I was in Nigeria during the last Sallah and many major intersections in Abuja had large signboards proclaiming Sallah greetings from the MFCT, who protested? In fact I will stop here before I unwittingly become guilty of what I am accusing you of.



Just know that Kano was wrong in that action, pure and simple. That action should be judged for what it is . Claiming non-muslims "actions" as the basis for the action is sooooo lame.

habufarid: This is all crap and cheap propaganda. Alcohol consumption is prohibited in both Islam and Christianity. It is Morally wrong and injurious to health. Destruction of bottles of alcohol has no any religious inclination. It is d right call to make. So stop compairing it with call to prayers.

Baby mama: See how Islam constantly segregates people
Listen to the Muslim writers here
Christian areas and Muslims areas being thrown freely
Islam is the only religion on earth that segregates against people yet they shout on the pages of print of tolerance

Isn't it amazing that a religion sees alcohol as evil yet they have the worst smokers on earth
The world largest producer of Opium is a Muslim country
Which is a worse evil?
Children in Kano sniff glue and by products of gutters to get high
Even grandmothers smoke
But alcohol is evil?

Baby mama:

Thank you
The sultan of Sokoto is fighting to release the Kogi lecturer accused of being a Boko haram henchman
Yet alcohol is their problem

Is it alcohol that slaughtered hundreds on the streets of Kano and sent the Emir running to London
Mschtwwww

vedaxcool: It is within the govt. Rights to ban Substances that r known to reduce the brain capacity to act normally, the only reason we r having this conversation is simply bcoz it was done in a muslim dominated state. Now I believe the govt. Of the state should have acted more circumspect. Due to the sort of complexity of Nigeria. I think there is an existing agreement on sabongari permitting them to drink as much Apolloalcohol they want in other words live according to their customs.

simi_olu1:

Like seriously SMH cos U have a totally screwed up idea of what human rights are! Lest I forget, ur second point implies that ALL who consume alcohol aren't in their right minds.
The issue is a constitutional one: Did d Gov break ANY Nigerian law in destroying those alcoholic drinks? Not a RELIGIOUS or MORAL debate.
This isn't a Christian vs Muslim thing mind U. Cos Christianity DOESN'T support consumption of alcohol too.

naptu2: 1) What's the difference between the Criminal Code and the Penal Code?

2) Is Nigeria a federation or a unitary state?

3) Is bigamy an offence under the penal code?

4) What does the NDLEA do with confiscated indian hemp? Does it return the hemp to the city it originated from or does it destroy the hemp?

5) Is the criminalisation of indian hemp a violation of the rights of hemp smokers?

6) Is "desertion of a pregnant woman" a crime under the Edo State Criminal Code? Is it a crime under the Niger State Penal Code? Is it a crime under the Lagos State Criminal Code?

Sissie:

Yes if you want to buy something you go to where it's sold, if I want soup ingredients I go to the market or to the mall and buy the ingredients, if you want to drink you go to the bar, do we have bars in kano state? Yes and it's in major non muslim areas in kano.

Like I said earlier alcohol and Hijab are not on the same level, and no its not against majority religion in the non muslim state, non Muslims are not forced to wear the Hijab in majority Muslim region, and banning alcohol in certain areas of kano is not against the Christian religion.

Ile-Ife:
The world moves in circles man. There was a time in this country where we had two masjids in Aso-villa with zero chapels. Islam is the most intolerant religion in the world no doubt. So, you'll find cases of discrimination anywhere you have muslim majority. This happens everywhere in the world once muslim outnumber others. so ...............

Ile-Ife:
Sanusi wanted to use non-halal (CBN) money to finance the project before the public outcry and change of plan. An islamic bank can't sustain it self, thats why they need governments to secretly bail them out, year-in-year-out, except the bank is fake and not entirely shariah compliant. like everything islamic, islamic finance is discriminatory.

Ile-Ife:
We all know the hijab is a show of power,
We? Who are these people
So hijab is now like a swagger stick?

[quote author=Ile-Ife]a sign of conquered territory, it has nothing to do salvation or holiness.

Ile-Ife:
Forget the symbolic charades and violence,

Ile-Ife:
islam will become what the "free" world is, a huge business enterprise with the islamic finance, halal restaurants/food, islamic schools, islamic fashion, etc everything and anything, just label it islamic with the help of a few mullahs or sheiks, you are in business.

So, pack well with your patronising religious palaver.

debetmx:

Since 1914, how many Northerners have been prosecuted for killing non- hausa/fulanis?

deols:

Very reasonable.

I find it hard to fathom how Christians agree with what their religion is against when they need to go against Islam.

Any Muslim who needs to get 'high' for a religious practice is definitely deceiving himself.

debetmx:

Kindly reverse it and answer it for me.

Do you remember how many Southerners and ibos in general were killed by the Northerners from May 1966 - October 1966?

yousee: Deols, that statement is an open door to attacks on your person.too.

Burning and slaying humans is not a religious function. Is it?

trenchcoat: First and foremost the writer is not a Muslim. He is only speaking of his mind on what he feels should have or shouldn't have. A Muslim does not have a different view in terms of the doctrines of Islam,as Muslims we are guided by the tenets of Islam, going contrary to what Islam says is going out of Islam. Secondly, how could a Muslim be comparing Athan and Alcohol? It is either the person is pained for seeing what he lust for been crushed or is indirectly in support of the consumption of alcohol, I guess he was tipsy when he scribbled this trash. The issue of including Christians does not arise as alcohol consumption is not acceptable in the bible. The writer is the real hypocrite and trying to create confusion between the Muslims and Christians, you call harming yourself with toxins human right? Why cant you follow the rights of Islam and shun your delusional view? Deols what have you achieved in posting such misleading note? You succeeded in showering arguments and insults only few are debating.
Right or no right what do they benefit in taking alcohol....Nothing is the answer, just making a fool of themselves and you call that enjoyment? What a waste of time.

young money101: Just curious to knw which is beta to be banned... Alcohol dat is more safer than cheap drugs been mostly consumed by mostly 80%youths,(both male and female)..and even married women Muslim populate in kano based on facts Dat I knw..is dis not hypocrisy at its peak to ban alcohol in Muslim areas n yet do nothing about the sales n circulation of cheap drugs dat is rampaging more lifes in kano?to me it's not a matter of sharia it's jst a direct attack on non Muslims..,,cos d r not even observing any sharia law dia..it's jst hypocrisy

deols: @debetmx, no tribal post will be allowed here.

You can stop already.

proverv 20:1

Ephesian 5:18
There are so many reasons why islam condemn ed alcohol, therefore kano state is wise enough in destroying such social virus (Alcohol )!

joker5180: u put everything upside down, there r fédéral laws That banned those drugs u mentioned and fédéral agencies r doing their best to enforce those laws in the state. There r no fédéral laws banning alcohol in nigeria, Is there anything wrong if a state enact a law banning sale nd consumption of alcohol to compliment those fédéral laws?

madobi85: See diffrent attacks on muslims nd Islam all because a govt tryna stop d consumption nd flow of wat is unlaw in both Holy books...why cnt sum fellows call spade by its name.
