Contact17:a man who fought against Allah and His Apostle and deserted Islam and became an apostate." There is a condition there. Clearly the person must have been a mole and have been leaking infomation to the enemies, this person will be killed even in western military rule. 2 Likes |

Contact17:liar..... Bukhari (83:37) - "Allah's Apostle never killed anyone except in one of the following three situations: (1) A person who killed somebody unjustly, was killed (in Qisas,) (2) a married person who committed illegal sexual intercourse and (3) a man who fought against Allah and His Apostle and deserted Islam and became an apostate." 1 Like |

and mutual tolerance. In Western countries, Sikh policemen and soldiers are allowed to wear their turbans and beards, and this has not led to any Sikhization of Europe and America. Besides, why on earth would a mere piece of clothing lead to mass conversions in any faith? How reasonable does that sound? Apparently, Ogundiya’s alarmist approach to internal Muslim issues – which have absolutely nothing to do with Christians or Christianity – is disturbing, to say the least. He is supposed to give responsible leadership to the Osun State Christian community. But, what is he doing instead? It is even terribly disappointing that he is asking the state governor to flout the ruling of the state high court, just to calm his jumpy nerves. Perhaps, a sign of how out-of-line Ogundiya has become is his comical vow to appeal the judgment, even though neither he nor his organization was a party in the case. Considering the utter emptiness and rashness of his threats and actions, it seems considerably clear that he is only a troublemaker. He has no interest in peaceful coexistence between Muslims and Christians in Osun State. He wants to build a wall of hatred between the two faith communities and sow the seeds for a bleak future for our noble state. But, is that really the teaching of Christ? “A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls,” says the Christian scripture. Such a man is indeed a threat to humanity as a whole. Maybe, it is high time that the leaders of CAN started to deal with their Muslim compatriots “with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love” as their holy book prescribes. |

The situation has been described as a “crisis” by mainstream news outlets, like The Punch, Vanguard and Premium Times. The Osun State High Court had on June 3, 2016 given a judgment which recognizes and upholds the constitutional rights of female Muslim students in the state to wear their hijabs at school, during school hours. The court specifically cited section 38 of the 1999 constitution (as amended) as the basis for its ruling. Hijab is a “fundamental right” of the female Muslim students under that section, said the court. The said section grants “every person” in Nigeria the freedom to “manifest” their religion. That obviously covers the use of the hijab by any Muslim citizen. In the Islamic faith, the hijab is of exactly the same status as the five daily prayers. Both of them are absolutely obligatory upon the matured Muslim girls and women. She must wear it wherever a male – who is not from her immediate family – is present. To give a clearer idea of the status of the hijab, it is, to the devout Muslim woman, more important than the turban is to the Sikh. Therefore, while it is easy to find Muslim girls and women who do not like wearing the hijab (mostly due to their upbringing and environment), there are indeed others who wish to carry out the command of their God by wearing it anytime they are outside their homes. Under the Nigerian constitution, they have the “fundamental right” to do that. It is indeed noteworthy that the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) have never denied this either. They too concede that the hijab is a fundamental right of female Muslims. However, they simply cannot let them exercise that constitutional right. According to the leaders of CAN in Osun State, the hijab symbolizes the “Islamization” of the state. So, their opposition to its use by female students is, in their view, a kickback against creepy conversion of the “Christian” (?) State of Osun into an Islamic caliphate. On June 7, CAN even organized an “emergency” meeting over the renewed hijab “threat.” Elisha Ogundiya, their local chairman, later issued a statement declaring that the hijab is an Islamic propagation tool. CAN fear that as soon as Muslim students started wearing their hijab at school, everyone in Osun State would somehow become Muslim, and then possibly a caliph would emerge. These facts reveal that CAN see the hijab as an existential threat. So, they will never stop opposing it, and may even go to very desperate lengths to stop Muslims from wearing it. This necessarily puts them on an eternal collision course with the generally peaceful and law-abiding Muslim majority of Osun State. CAN threaten to direct Christian students in the state “to start wearing Christian garments and vestments as part of their school uniform for the propagation of our own faith” if the governor decides to respect the court’s pro-hijab ruling. The exact point of comparison between the hijab and the Christian garment is, however, not mentioned. The hijab is compulsory for the female Muslim, in all places and at all times – except only when she is with her immediately family. Is that the case with the “Christian” garments (whatever that means)? When a female Muslim is prevented from wearing her hijab, she is thereby automatically denied the right to perform one of her most fundamental religious obligations. Is it then really the case that the “Christian garments” are obligatory upon female Christians in all places and at all times (except in the presence of their immediate families) as well? Is it truly a religious obligation in Christianity to adorn choir robes and other “Christian” vestments virtually everywhere they are? It is obviously impossible to miss the intolerance and fanaticism of Christian leaders like Ogundiya, who raise false alarms over non-issues and needlessly stoke up religious tensions between Christians and Muslims. The world has moved beyond such kinds of religious rascality. This is the age of intellectualism |

Seeing marriages crashing on a daily basis make me wonder if true love still exist. Maybe because I have seen too much of india movies, I still firmly believe in love but seeing love turning to hatred in many marriages make me fear marriage. Is something wrong with our generation? Or is it that marriage orientation is low? |
