Simple question you should ask yourself is this.

How and who dogged the grave?

assuming the grave was dogged by the help of an excavator, why did it not sunk in the process of laying the supposed lawyer to rest?

was the grave reinforced during the digging process?

irrespective of profession or status, in Islam, everybody is buried lying on their right facing the qibla. Qibla is the direction Muslims face while praying.

Are we not the Custodians of The Laws and Statute today? Are there not lawyers who pervert judgement, deprive the course of the poor and fail to declare that which is True?

Sorry bros, The Curse is Still In Force Today on any Lawyer who breaks The Laws of "Just Is" and Rightness.

They are no different from the Pharisees/Sadducees, Who Changed The Law of Righteousness to Unrighteousness.

Seems to me, contrary to what you think, you have even corroborated what I have said.

You said lawyers pervert judgement, deprive the course of the poor and fail to declare that which is True?. Okey then, let me ask you this question. When for example an INEC official (Chairman etc) declares a fraudulent Election legitimate, or pronounces a wrong candidate, has he not perverted justice or declared that which is not true. When a president, governor, etc: politicians generally, when they convert public funds for hospitals etc through corrupt means, have they not deprive the course of the poor. When in the Civil Service a less qualified candidate was taken or promoted over a person deserving of the positions based on ethnic, religious or plainly bribery, is that not injustice. These people mentioned here are not necessarily lawyers.

You also said the curse is on any lawyer who breaks the law of justice, I agree, but so too for any body, whether a doctor in the operation theater, a sports official etc.

The point I was trying to make was simply that the Bible provision quoted was not to mean the profession of Lawyers as we now have today, but rather the Pharisees etc who were at the time, custodians of the law of God and were supposed to teach the people. Just even read to the end. It says, in summary, that they do not enter heaven, yet prevent others from entering. How can you say in our modern time that lawyers, singularly as a profession, prevent people from entering heaven. In fact, the set of people in our present day who may debatably come close to the description in the verse of the Bible quoted, will be pastors, bishops, etc: religious leaders. But this is even by the way and not the point of this write up.

The examples here are simply just examples so let us not start another argument or make a storm out of a tea cup. But I am sure you have fully understood the point I was trying to make. Thank you.

No, sir, WE HAVE IT WORSE!

WHY?

BECAUSE IN TRUTH AND DEED WE HAVE THE MIND OF GOD!

LAW IS GOD.

AND LAWYERS WORK FROM GOD'S OFFICE DIRECTLY (WHICH IS WHY AS I AM CERTAIN YOU HAVE SEEN, WE ARE AUTOMATICALLY FEARED). LIKE MOSES AND THE PROPHETS.

SO, IMAGINE GOD'S OFFICER DOING WRONG IN AND THROUGH GOD'S OFFICE?

I THINK THE SAME PUNISHMENT WHICH FELL ON SATAN AND GOD'S ANGELS SHALL FALL ON US.

I respectfully do hear your point but I humbly disagree with you, for we are guilty of preventing people from going to God by not UPHOLDING ALWAYS THE RIGHTFULLNESS OF THE LAW TO THE DISGRACE, SHAME AND CONDEMNATION OF ALL EVIL.

However, I retreat respectfully for I do not allege that you are as a Pharisee Laywer nor is this the proper place to have such contention. Thank you.

The saying that lawyers are buried upside down and twelve feet has been there for decades, it has become so viral that it intercepted with the decision of young men and women who had the intention of studying this course in their university. It is claimed that the reason for burying lawyers upside down is founded on the belief that the life of a lawyer is basically full of lies and mischiefs thus, they are not worthy to see God and so should be buried upside down. Interestingly, this belief is not one that is peculiar to this part of the world as lawyers from all nations of the world are daily faced with the question whether they are indeed buried upside down. What prompted this topic was my reconnection with a long lost friend who is a Ghanian, I knew about her interest in law back then and I didn't hesitate to call her a barrister, but she told me she ended up been an economist as her dad was strongly against her studying law due to the above reasons which she claimed it is been still practiced in their region (Ashanti region) and also claim Nigerians too especially the southwest still indulge in this habits of burying lawyers upside down and twelve feet instead of six feet. Lawyers in the house how true is this?

At the bolded, when we die we will confirm to you, just be on stand-by.

From my training, lawyers do not lie, they expound your claims and look at logical ways of persuading the court to believe 'your' claim. They are your mouth piece and help you perpetuate what you claim.
