Great write up! Please correct me if I am wrong but I understand that a declaration of a holy jihad (Holy War) against the infidels of the world is in the Koran, which is a command to all Muslims and they, Muslims, are assured of a place in heaven. Q1. Is there anything like a Holy Jihad (Holy War)? Q2. Who are the targets of this war? Q3. According to Islamic Teachings, who is an Infidel? Thank you. |

uzoexcel: mistake but dont call me names...a true xtian wouldnt do that..apologies everyone Truce...... I'm sorry But that verse has been quoted countless of time, you can get a bible hard copy or soft copy and read for yourself, drawn out something from the whole chapter.......stay bless One thing is every religion tends to portray we against the world. Come to think of it, if you cannot love the man you see how can you claim to love God that you haven't seen ~you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free~ |

It is left in the hands of the non voilent muslims to correct this notion. There is nothing to correct. Only open minds see reason and yours is closed. Hating Islam and abusing or discriminating against Muslims wont stop true believers from being Muslims. 1 Like |

My own belive is that nfn like terrorism, to stare up violence ppl would go any lenght, if u really wana knw d truth abt islam... Then go mk research abt it, instead of beliving anythn d media throws out to ppl with ignorance who belive what de hear nd not try to find out if it is true or not, its easy 4 sm1 to slap u @ d back of d head den run away, leaving u to tink dat d pesn nxt u was d one dat slaped u, dat way h8 and fyt go strt, ol ds ish is politically driven nfn mor, jus lukn 4 religious sentiments to support dem das ol, so ol ds BH wahala na rituals in disguise... What's d use... Every1 is gona die sooner or l8r be it natural or by any other means,For your information, nobody is talking about what the media tells anybody. We all have one way or the other, personally or through someone close to us, experienced the havoc caused through islam. So don't sit her and make comments as if we are in a land far away from all these happenings. Besides, I studied Islamic Law in the University as an elective. I should be certain of what I say, shouldn't I? And i'm surprised that you don't think that the perception people have about islam caused by your muslim brothers is a matter to address.

May Allah bless the writer of this piece. So on point. The world knows the real terrorists. No amount of name-calling or abusive words will make us forsake our faith. WE ARE MUSLIMS AND WE ENJOIN THE WORLD TO COME TO THE RELIGION OF TRUTH. We stand for justice, peace and love. To all those who came here to incite hatred and violence we are sorry to disappoint u, we are civil and polite. Should u be willing to discuss with reason and common sense, u re heartily welcome. |

omoharry: Did you really read the OP? You fall among those whom I say have sheer ignorance about the context and the background of Islam, so they spread falsehood. One of the ways is through simply quoting Qur'an out of context. I request you to go back to where you copied and pasted those verses, read the ones before and after them, then come back. Lastly, there are similar verses in the Bible. Do you know that? Go and read Exodus 20:22. What does it say? Should I then copy and paste it and claim that Christianity condone killing of other faithful? No, unless if I want to misinform others, or engage in fruitless argument. Thank you. |

Nyanya bomb blast suspect, Aminu Sadiq Ogwuche who was recently extradited from Sudan, and currentlyanswering questions from security operatives has said, he will never beg for forgiveness because he did the right thing by bombing Nyanya motor park which led to the death of over 70 people and left 120 injured. Sadiq said if left alone he is willing to do more. He said a lot of shocking things which will make you wonder how a man that once lived in a western world could turn out to be who he is now. No be me go use my hand type all his negative beliefs. Find it as culled (quotes) from National Daily after the cut. “I don’t deny that I am the executioner of the Nyanya bomb incident. I did it in order to draw government’s attention to our demands. We want our detained colleagues released and compensation paid to those of our colleagues who were killed by the federal troops during operations. We want Islamic rule in the whole of northern Nigeria. Western education is a sin against Allah. It’s time for dialogue between government and Boko Haram leaders for the way out of the deadlock,” he was quoted as saying. “The government must do something now or the bombing will continue. There is no regretting anything because we are fighting a just cause to liberate our people from western education and religion,” “Federal government has been trying without success to wipe out Boko Haram. They killed our leader, Muhammed Yusuf and hundreds of others yet we still exist. We are a force to be recognized. You ignore us at your own peril. We are particularly pained by the killing of hundreds of our members across the forest in northern part of the country. Although we equally killed federal troops, we will never forgive the federal government for the incessant killings. We are well armed to fight back and we will never surrender. Boko Haram is well funded and highly equipped organization with capacity to take over the whole country if it so desires, he ranted. “If I am left alone, I will still kill those infidels who have refused to repent of their sins against Allah. This is my mission on earth. My mission is to wipe out infidels from the face of the earth. You call me bomb detonator, and I love that. I am ready to kill again. In fact, I enjoy killing people who are unbelievers; those deceived by western education and disobedient to Allah and his holy Koran.

geborenzie: i get your write up in encouraging muslims but muslims are very volatile take a look at boston bombing it was done by Muslims where millions of pple died also take a look at the n klling of two britain officers by two nigerian guys I somewhat agree with you, but those volatile are not the majority, far from being so. Muslims and Christians and other faithful live peacefully in many other countries and places. Don't just assume Muslims live only in Mosul, where the ISIS nitwits now tell them to convert, pay tax or be killed. What of U.A.E, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia, Maldives, Comoros, Senegal, Morocco, etc? Do you hear about any crisis between the majority Muslims and the minority other faithful in these countries I have listed? You see. Even in the places where the conflicts rage, not everywhere it happens so. There's always media exaggeration when it involves Muslims. I hope you understand me. Thank you. |
Re: Being Muslim And The Danger Of A Single Story by muhsin(m): 7:15pm On Jul 25, 2014 |
Emmydo360: Nyanya bomb blast suspect, Aminu I don't want to, as I can't, say he's guilty or otherwise. This is completely left to the security operatives in whose hands he's being held and later to the court of law, but this has no bearing with this OP unless and until you want to derail it. Anyway, let me further clarify: 1) The OP tellingly condemns the activities of Boko Haram. 2) He and his cohorts do not represent the Nigerian Muslims, not even to mention the 1.5b Muslims population worldwide 3) The attack killed as many Muslims as non-Muslims, I presume, as the bomb didn't filter the religious, or any, identity of its victims 4) So, what do you want to communicate by the post? Thanks for your understanding. |

san316: It happens everyday. I was in a bus in jos and a call came in. I picked and said ''assalam alaikum'' and all eyes turn on me and i was like ''kilo de''. May God nt make their actions discourage us from being who we are. That is great. That is also why I love my names. My first name is an Islamic name while my surname is also an Islamic name; whenever and where ever I mention my names, infidels jitter and shiver. My names intimidates foolish and idiotic religious bigots. Church goers and other nonentities turn round to take a look at me while I just smile back mischievously and viciously . but true Christ followers are not discriminatory, so they see names as just names and accommodate everyone. My wife is a Christian and we are happy together unlike Pastor and ex-Mrs Chris Okotie. |

tintingz: Hitler hate the Jews and killed many of them when he was a Christian even from his speech it is clear that he fought crusade.Mind you, Hitler was subdue by allied forces-Britain and America(your typical christian Nation). Besides Hitler is no longer a threat to world peace, Islamic fanaticism is! If America were to declare war on any mid-eastern terrorist group Muslim worldwide will tag it Muslim against Christian; Federal Government declared total war against Bokoharam, Sultan and Northern Governors will tag it declaration of war against Muslims. See now that no one called the terrorist Muslim, Its your fellow Muslim brothers that called them Muslims! In conclusion, You are actually saying,"Islamic terrorism is not a problem after all Hitler(a supposed Christian) is also a culprit!" |
