Did you indicate that you are a muslim within the last 24 hours?

And again Mr Seun, how right and justified is this move? Wouldnt it create a dichotomy between brothers and sisters on Nairaland and at the extreme, breed animosity? Imagine after viewing a beautiful comment by a Nairalander and I want to follow the person. On opening the persons profile to follow him, I will see "There is no god but God and stuffs like that and Mohammed is blah blah".... If I go ahead and follow that person, that means I share in principle his views and promote his cause because should I share his comments on Nairaland thenceforth, all my followers will also open his profile and see that thing. Again, how will it now look when Christians begin to agitate for their own too? And every Christian on Nairaland would now have their profile read "There is no allah but God and Christ is his Son and saviour of the world"! You see how animosity will come in?

Unless we are now proselytizing on this website. In that case, I will shut my account and persuade my friends and business associates to close theirs too. It is this bad.

Your website and profile pics is exactly what you are describing now. I see no difference and i supposed that didn't stop Muslims from following you.

exxell:


Nooo.... That was my objective choice. I put it there by myself and am not forcing anybody to it. I have never been against people standing for what they believe in. But having that text on my profile put there by Nairaland is a subjective choice. Am against that. Mind you, I have lots of muslim and Hausa friends. Scroll through my comments and see if I have discriminated against any religion.

Idrismusty97:
Yes you are right! We all know that is a mistake and would be rectified soon. Someone also complained of seeing a popup message asking if "You are a Muslim or not". Maybe you mistakenly click yes,That's why seun was once asking if you indicated you are a Muslim. Anyway, The religious stereotyping should be done in a more proper way not by a pop-up message. And it shouldn't be permanent like the one i see in your profile. People can change their believe anytime.

exxell:
Please, Nairalanders, my friend just called me now and was asking me when I converted to Islam? I asked him... Me kwa? God forbid. He now told me of what he saw on my profile and it reads something like an Islamic text. I had to login in immediately, went to my profile and saw what he was talking about! Mr Seun, I need your attention immediately. Am not a muslim and will never be. Though I love my muslim friends, I can never propagate Islam not to talk of having it as a signature on my handle. I am a Christian to the core. I really need that text removed. Attached is a picture of the text am talking about.

exxell:
I never indicated am a Muslim ooo. But I viewed a Muslim thread on front page today. That should be the thread of "Islam whatsapp group and then Islam newbies on Nairaland".... I wanted to wish them happy holidays and happy Eid. But on second thoughts, I decided against that. I only got notified about this problem by a friend Nairalander.

Rapsainot:
*runs to check my profile* sighs!!!! AH , God save you seun.

Seun:

So you did not click "yes" on a page that asked you whether you believe that there is no god/God but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet?

exxell:


Honestly, that was the second thought I had and I didnt comment again. I was typing from my Iphone's opera and it can get a little tricky. I told you before that I wanted to wish them happy Eid and decided against that right? But when I initially clicked reply, a pop up came up but I did not know that there will be "implications". I honestly thought that because of the way people usually diss Islam (am not one of those who do that), they made a new rule and people will just say yes to that "pop up" and then post their comments. I thought its just a normal "reminder" to people just as one can see in every thread where there are different rules written in red. So after clicking on the pop up which I didnt take into much consideration, something struck me within and I decided not to comment on that thread again. But what I dont understand is that text coming to stay on my profile. Please, I want it removed. I acknowledge my mistake. But its an honest one. I don't see or know you as a proselyte. I have always known you for your neutral and objective views. I wouldnt want our friendship soured. You know you are my friend right? Coz av always stood up for this site even in stormy weathers.
