lexy2014: Even though I get your drift on this your post. It is understandable with the situation Nigeria is in now. But this Tahir guy is more Nigerian than alot of us, he was a nice person. And through his investments in Nigeria and Kano in particular, he has raised and empowered thousands of Nigerians. His elderly , nice and philanthropic gestures will be missed. May Allah grant his soul peaceful and eternal rest |

Sheyimann:I believe so too. My uncle is neighbours with one Lebanese man in Kano. In the over 20 years I know the man I have never seen him pray with the muslims on that street even thoguh there is a mosque there. Even during friday prayers you will never see any arab praying together with the Hausas in the mosques. So much for unity in Islam 4 Likes |

Sheyimann: For those that allow it. Remember that Arabs dominated only the first 3 centuries of islamic power. The Persians supplanted them in administration and arts. Most of Islamic academic and cultural achievement is actually Perso-Islamic The Turks took over military affairs. So that all the important mamluks and sultans from India to Egypt in the 2nd millennium were Turkic or Turkish. In either of these countries today their culture dominates over Arabic and their most recent contact with Arabs is one of their own domination. In black Africa it's different. But Senegal is bold. They head their own tariqas there. Literally with direct chain to the Prophet. Even distort many tenets for their own version . Like Muridiyas who perform pilgrimage to Touba and pray towards Gabon where their saint Murid was held by the French. I'd say u consider that widespread Islam in Naija is new (outside of Kanem Bornu) so expect all these sorta things to prevail. 3 Likes |

Geeman2006: You say you get my drift yet u say Tahir was "more Nigerian than a lot of us". You can even see the basis you are using to come to conclusion...money, wealth and material things. If u feel he was more Nigerian than u, feel free. Speak for yourself not other Nigerians. 3 Likes |

Sheyimann: No Arab is better than a non Arab, neither is a white better than a black, nor a free born better than a slave except in regards of his faith. Eeman is the defining feature of superiority in Islam. Whoever believes in Allah and the prophets, and the books, and the last day, and obeys him, enjoining good and preventing evil, is the better person irrespective of his descent, color, race, affluence, or strength 1 Like |

Kokaine: I don't think he is referring to the theological aspect of it. God's law is ultimately interpreted and administered by humans. So biases show. Within the sociopolitical sphere of Islamic civilization, Arab-ness has always held a pride of place. Technically they aren't better than any other believer. But in reality features of that culture are regarded as proto Islamic and more favorable to copy or adopt. this is ofc tied to the language being the language of the Holy book. But it's been fetishized beyond faith. For e.g. looking through history we see that in something like the hiring of qadis (judges), a super important function in most Islamicate societies, Arab-ness was considered perhaps unevenly against actual qualifications. And where they aren't Arab per se, they have been thoroughly Arabized (esp for North Africans, and Levantines). Being "Arab" has been held as a badge of pride. You can read celebrated poetry from the likes of Al Mutannabi and see this same ethic. A telling one is where Al Mutannabi berates Kafur Al Misk, the Nubian eunuch who ruled on behalf of the Ikhshidid sultans, for being a black gay in contrast with his supreme Arab-ness. Even though Kafur ruled Egypt and effectively fired him from his job. Kafur was his superior, but that didn't count to most of his celebrators. During the Zanj revolt, the message thru out was rising against Arab oppression. Or even the same thing in the Zanzibar revolt of 64. The issue is more to do with Islamicate societal structures. Not necessarily Islam itself I guess. |

lexy2014:Everyone has his opinion. Do you know how many people he employs through his businesses, do you know how many Nigerians have gained through his scholarship and philanthropy. Do you know the people he feeds daily through his foundation. Someone that has been in Nigeria for over 60 years and doing business. How do you ignore 60+ years of consistency. Say what you like , the man touched lives. What have you and others done. We can choose to be sentimental but I rate him alot more than most of our politicians. He was a good man who contributed his own quota to the development of his adopted country. You can attack the government for their condolence of this individual but don't make it look like the man was a complete nobody who doesn't deserve it. And yes I speak for myself with my full chest, You're entitled to your own view about him. |
