Asalam alaiykum waramatullah wabarakatu.
Are you a muslim lady?
Do you hold Islam close to your hearth?
Are you a beginner, a learner or devoted Muslim lady?
I've been a follower of the countless threads and post on nairaland for sometime now and I joined to add voice to the Jihad i have seen here and perform my share of acts of Ibadah online.
I must confess it’s not been easy having to convince people about the beauty of Islam especially the male Christians who seem to be sworn enemies of our religion.
I am doing a collection of names of Muslimah online for the purpose of helping to do more forms of Ibadah apart from online antagonism and rash talk.
I’m sure we all have ideas and if we get to share those ideas we’ll really do well in getting a lot done.

Ma sallam.

i think you should try not using the hijab for a couple of weeks,and see how reliefed you ll be

@GODSON2009

The reason i say my KALIMAT SHAHADAH timelessly is to re-affirm my faith in the religion of peace and continue in the ways and teachings of the noble prophet Mohammed (SAW).
You will never see me without the Hijab,that shall never happen.
I however pray that you will one day give up the banner of deceit and baseless argument but join in the crusade for 'hikmat' that you were created for.
I leave you to ponder on this and on that note, i say Sallam alaiykum.

please enough of excusing female enslavement in the name of religious doctrines,let a woman or females have the freedom of choice if they want to show their hair ,arms e.t.c or not. this doctrine is quite absurd considering the fact that, mecca and medina was a very hot and humid place,why any individual would subject his wives to untold heat and misery in the name of protecting them beats me,besides seeing a woman's hair or arms is not the percursor to adultery, because it is in the heart, like the bible says

you dont have to commit adultery to have sinned,but mere looking at the woman lustfully and thinking unlcean thoughts is adulterous in itself,so the fact that you have your hair and arms covered will not prevent adultery or fornication.

if a woman was fat or slim or curvy,will the hijab cover that too?
if a woman had a heavy rear end or bossom will the hijab hide that?
if a woman looked sexy or beautiful,will the hijab hide it?
so what exactly is it hiding of the woman's honour olabowale

@GODSON2009
I'm surprised that am responding to your post Mr man.
I shudder at the mere sight of immoral dressing.
This act has become so rampant in our society today and for you to assume that those of us who adorn the Hijab are being enslaved beats my imagination grossly.

I wonder what the size of a woman has got to do with her Hijab, ever hear of the adage: "cut your coat according to your size?"
Isn't it simple that the hijab will follow suit with the size of the user?
I wonder what you do not understand about flexibility of textile.
If you check to see the label of any tailored clothing, you'll see the size clearly written along with the name of the designer S - small, L - Large M- medium and XL - Extra large.
From the above list you can easily make your pick depending on how lean you've become in your aimless pursuit for glory where there is none or XL if you've grown so fat in your thoughtless and uncaring mindset for the needy.
Come to think of it, can you still wear same jean trousers you were so fond of in your first year in secondary school?

Oga, you don't have a point,I'll willingly give your madam one of my very pretty Hijabs,am sure she'll appreciate it.
She can come have her pick out of many.

@ 4play

No mind these spinsters. They are always jealous of married people like us. If you offer them marriage now, they will start blushing.

Not all of us spinsters oh!
There is a great difference between a searching spinster and one who knows her worth and what she wants in her man.
Besides, age does matter.

Many well meaning men have confessed to me their love for the hijjab.
Alot of them seem to respect ladies in their hijab than those who do not adorn this piece of clothing.
Besides, it makes sense to cover ones unclothedness from public view and the hijab is just a lady's basic cover and a signature at that.

Oh can we continue, i love this thread.

For me,Quran and Hadith are my the keys to my Islam.

Lagosboy:

Very true indeed. People forget that salam alaekum is a dua on the other persona and the reciprocation is dua itself. shame !!

Yes!
Shame indeed.

Hmmm. . . .struggling with three other wives for the d*ck of your husband can take it's toll on ya. . . .a sexually frustrated woman is really a sad sight to behold. . .

Subhannallah!
I see shaytan has found an abode in your heart

@Olabowale
Ride on Sir! Tell them, let them know.

Agreed! Gani's burial was unislamic.
Can somebody please start a thread on what is required of every Muslim (both the mourners and the mourned) on burial issues.
Its a good way of educating those who do not know and advise against further happenings.

Continue with acts of Ibadah just like you did while in ramadan.

@poster
Sure smoking is not allowed in Islam.
Cigarettes contain nicotine which is intoxicating and can be harmful to the body when taken directly.

Abuzola:

Amin.

The sultan owe us some explaination else people will rebel him and which is bad

@Abuzola

The sultan gave a go ahead according to his calculations and whatever his intentions were he is liable and will be jjudged accordingly just like you and i.
The Holy books gave us clear reasons to follow our leaders whether they are just or otherwise.
We are not expected to rebel against them even if in our opinion they are fraudulent or unfair
Allah has the final judgment concerning matters that have to do with Justice and fairplay.

Controversies are part of religion and cannot be avoided.
Some Muslims around the world have resorted to following Mecca on the issue of sighting the moon and commencement of Fasting.
This is meant to curb the problem of uniformity in our Eid days and the number of days of fasting in Ramadan.
However,this practise to me is not advisable since the sharia has clearly stated guidelines as to the sighting of the moon.

In Nigeria,the practice has been to be on the lookout for the crescenct when shaban ends so we can commence ramadan.
The ambiguities that result from not sighting the moon or sighting it later and realising that its not a day old is not new to us.
