Wickedtruths:
Arabs don't prostrate to their elders but Yorubas do. In the far north, the greeting for elders is squatting.
Religion is based on culture.
An Arab man is not in a position to tell me how to greet my elders.

Jazakallah kairan. One has to interpret this saying within the context of either worshipping any other person except Allah or greeting an elder. Prostrating to greet my Dad cannot be interpreted as a form of worship and should not be condemned. Wa'Allahu A'lam

And Hell_rufai has been prostrating for atiku, OBJ and buhari since 1850BC

Yoruba Muslims put their culture first before religion while northern Muslims adopt their religious belief as their culture.... Confused mofos

SO ARE THE YM(YORUBA MUSLSIMS) GOING TO HELL? BECAUSE THEY ARE DISOBEYING ALLAH'S COMMAND

The context in that narrative was referring to those prostrating as a form of worshipping someone.

Greeting your parents as a sign of respect cannot be equated to worshipping.

There is a need to interpret things contextually, not not copy in verbatim.

Or how can you justify the Hadith that said children Aljanah is in the feet of their parent.

⭕it is only possible to prostrate to the Arabian demon called Allah
⭕It is permissible to bow down to that object called moon ☺️
⭕It is allowed to bow down to that object called the star ✴️✴️✴️✴️
⭕Then it is allowed to bow down to the that parallelogram called kabarin Saudi Arabia ,

Dan buruoba!!!



Wetin Musa no go hear for gate

[quote author=drizslim post=94991888]The question here is

Is Allah the Almighty God?[/qu


YES, HE Is

Culture was there before religion, so OP know what you're saying and the intention was just for greeting and nothing else. Use your brain.

Yeye statement,..... As a muslim, i do not agree with this.

Not for a Yoruba Muslim, culture+religion is our identity

The writer is MAD.

I am a Yoruba boy.

I am a Muslim.

My wife is a Christian.

If my wife is going to the Church, I will follow her.

If Masquerades come out, I will follow them.

If they are doing Eyo Festival in Lagos Island, I will pay for the regalia, wear my regalia and participate.

If you greet my father without prostrating, I will slap you severally. I will give you Ifoti, Igbaju, Iforun, Igbadi and Igbati.

Nonsense without ingredients. This is the type of nonsense that these church goers do and we tell them they are mad, now a mumu boy is telling us the same nonsense. Arabian Slave osi.

as a konk Yoruba wey I be.........Culture 1st b4 Religion...... who religion help..... hypocrite everywhere claiming to b religious.....i do my Islam in a better way than those extremists........Peace

frankyychiji:
They need more Islamic schools in n the west for sure. And sharia courts too.

if you think so then ignorancy is your culture.great Islamic scholars recognized globally are there in the west,I don't see anything in the north.

This can only happen in the other part of the country, not acceptable in the west here. We Yoruba nourish our culture than religion. Culture first, religion follow.

Yoruba slogan, A ko gba were mesin.

Judgement Is Only Consider By God Almighty!

Never Will I Condemn Any Religion Nor Believe, But Know Ye That God Is The AlMighty, In Him My Trust Is Built.

It was interpreted wrongly.

Do not bow simply means Do not worship

My brother, refrain!

It Is Not Permissible To Prostrate To Anyone Other Than Allah.

frankyychiji:
This attitude is why you Yoruba mooslims are not allowed to site the moon. I advocate for the establishment of Sharia courts in all yoruba land, to whip cold and lukewarm mooslims into line.

Only the blind won't see the glorious thing God made that is called moon.. how has siting moon helped the north. They are still the most backward region . So they should look inward to see what they are doing wrong

those ones are ignorant ones and mind you I'm a Yoruba...
the truth is majority of Yoruba's culture are built upon charms and incantations

Even Yoruba herself said Idobale kiishewa..meaning prostration alone doesn't potray you as a someone of good conduct

So culture and religion are two different things..

Ase! Allah created different cultures with different ethics. Prostrating to elderly ones in Yoruba land doesn't mean they are your gods. No, it's simply a sign of respect which in itself is valued by Allah. Allah says you should respect your parents, accord them the respect needed to please him. He said if you don't respect your parents and you respect him, he won't accept your prayers. How is me prostrating to my parents a sign of rivalry. I don't consider my father a god now unless I do, I'm definitely not doing anything wrong. I pray to Allah and accord him his respect. Stop misleading Muslims. I'm a Muslim too. Allah that diversified ethnic groups knows what he's did. He said you shouldn't fight his battle for him, so don't.

Y’all extremists make this religion very tiring!!! Arab probaby dnt prostrate because it is not there culture and way of greeting!! Down south here it is a way of showing respect . So why do you need to counter culture with religion !!! Islam is peaceful!! Extremists are the problem

femi4:
you mean cultural values like idobale, ikunle, ewi , were built on charms?

You lack good foundation of the subject matter.

Yes I mean majority, tell me what are the origin of ayeta, okigbe, madarikan, edi, efun, ewonsanpona if not shirk...I'm staunch Yoruba and these things are not hidden to me..

And ikunle and idobale is against Islam in the sense that ALLAH alone is worthy of bowing for..

Is it not the same Yoruba that said idobale kii shewa?

Even though Islam doesn't condemn culture, it only weeded out the bad ones...So the basic ruling is that any culture is permissible in as much it doesn't contradict any principle of Islam..

Religion of wàhálà (problem)

Snap out of delusion

what is the origin of hajj. It is idolatry repackaged. Just like SARs turn SWAT

Hndrrxxx:
Yep
It's just an innovation now.
You never see the Holy Prophet Muhammad prostrate or bend over for anyone during his time


In anything innovated, is forbidden and anything that is forbidden leads ultimately to the Hell Fire

afi innovation nà you no even understand your religion. It's categorised under maasiya and some categorise it under shirk.

And it is some of you who are clueless about Islam that will be in the front row to condemn people who leave Islam .

Allah[God] is wiser and understanding than u r imagining, He knows the mind behind all things, even not all who bow before HIM are worshiping HIM, prostrating or kneeling down is a culture of respect not of worship, God looks at the heart not the action

Assalamualaikum!
My dear Muslim brothers and sisters. We are trying to build a mosque in a community. Pls your contribution is needed. No amount is small.
The reward for building a mosque is great and ongoing; for every prayer said inside a mosque you’ve helped build, Allah (SWT) will reward you in Jannah.
