If Sahara reporters can provide the exact footage,maybe we would be able to pinpoint the exact location of these bastards but from these two pictures,I was able to geolocate the approximate site of where the footage was captured.

If Allah is an idol,that makes the billions of Muslims and Arab Christians who call God ALLAH as idol worshippers. If facing a certain place makes Muslim cultist,that also makes millions of people who practise judaism cultist because muslims face the Kabbah in Makkah during prayer while Jews face Jerusalem during prayer. Wearing certain cloths?I don’t know where you get that. Guess what is not idolatory? To guillotine the head of some local dog onto scrap metals made up of bicycle spokes,knocked down Mitsubishi engines and rotten coca-cola caps. It’s also not idolatory the act of pouring refined sugary drinks into some river because the fishes and whatever resides there in are dieing for a drink. It is also not idolatory when humans go into the woods to fall a tree and use the wood to make figurines or using the mud to mould some fine human like figures and then still bow them to it and call it god.Sometimes,some of these gods were captured by white man and kept inside museum for everyone to come and watch.Powerless nonsense

Peak fooling

Hmmmm….what about Umm Ayman who was the one that took the delivery of the prophet as a baby but ended up being married to Za’id who was the adopted son of the Prophet (before adoption in this way was abrogated) and both ended up giving birth to Usamah Ibn Za’id. Umm Ayman was very well aged at the time she married Za’id but she had a son with him.

Lmao…..your mathematics numerals came from Islamic/Hindu civilisation and without it,you won’t be able to write the codes that gave way to the computers we have today. Those numerals gave way to Algebra and Algorithm,without it you won’t be able to be on X or Facebook. Algebra is a literal contraction of the name of a book known as Al-Kitab Al mukhtasar Fi hisab AL JABAR written by Muhammed Al-khawarizmi Algebra is from AL JABAR while algorithm is just a latinised version of his name,Al-khawarizmi and that right there is a product of Islamic civilisation. There is no area of life or human endeavour that can be traced distinctly ONLY to your ancestors. Your ancestors lived in bungalow mud houses with thatched roofs.They were unable to conceptualise the need for storey buildings or any gigantic architectural pieces at that and you want to compare your civilisation to the Europeans,Arabs or the far East Asians who were building enormous and magnificent edifices for thousand of years! Someone needs to say this out there and I’m not even a Matt Walsh or something. Again Mr Davies,do you only get worked up on Abdul-Samad but bearing a contracted Hebrew name like yours is okay or are you not proud of your identity?

This is highly disingenuous and I say this not because I discount your intellect. One,this duty to refine and improve and not to abandon certain things from our ancestors,does it apply to all our endeavours or do we just want to use it to flog religion alone? Your ancestors used messenger pigeons,emissaries travel on land using their foot to deliver messages to other places.Your ancestors dropped their foot for horses after horses was introduced into Yoruba land via trade with other people on the Trans-Sahara routes. Messenger pigeons was left behind(Abandoned) for a better option.This is from your ancestors.They didn’t wait to invent the pigeons into some dragorns to fly faster. In the past,our ancestors thought the god of saponna was responsible for small pox outbreak but this was thoroughly discounted as the white missionaries killed this god of saponna with the small pox vaccine and today,no one even takes small pox vaccine again because the disease has been eradicated. Why are your ancestors not worshipping saponna again? On the concept of ABIKU,we don’t have it anymore because again your ancestors were wrong because they had an untrue idea about the cause of ABIKU but with advancement in medical science,the whole concept falls apart and we now know that ABIKU is certainly not what our ancestors thought it to be. If we are not meant to ABANDON FALSHOOD for superior evidences (Truth),you are supposed to still rely or better still advance your ancestors messenger delivery systems because me and you don’t know each other but we are here using some other civilisations invention-the phone and internet.Pray tell,what rudimentary form of internet or phone did your ancestors even develop in the first place?? Oh,I forgot….the ancestors never even invented any form or writing.A people that has no concept of writing will never create an indigenous coding system that gave birth to the internet and language machines we used today. Hypothetically,if Yoruba people( and every other people in sub-Saharan Africa) never existed,there is NOTHING in today’s world that we have that we wouldn’t have had because there is NOTHING our ancestors had that is distinctive to them alone today that the world would miss.If you doubt,mention JUST ONE thing. 👉👉Islamic civilisation gave us Mathematics,Algorithm,Alchemy,Algebra,medicine etc. 👉👉The Chinese (Han) civilisation gave us gun powder. 👉👉The European civilisation gave us the Industrial Revolution. Our ancestors are NOT so magnificent,sorry. Lest I forget,what benefit do you get from your name being DAVIES ,a contracted name from DAVID which is HEBREW,does any of your ancestors go with that kind of a name?Why are you distorting your identity?

The power of Islam. It wipes away kufr. fixed*

Do we just stick to an opinion even if it is wrong just because it is our “culture,traditions and spirituality “? What does this make us if superior evidence doesn’t change our notion on a topic? For example,we know what our “culture” said about Abiku and Saponna which are Rhesus iso-immunization and small pox respectively,should we continue on the path of our ancestors because they are our fathers? Why should truth give way for filial identification? (I am not even addressing the Hausa gods topic here rather the backbone on which you laid your argument)

I’m not on TikTok,would have love to engage you guys on there. The Prophet(peace be upon him) attained Prophethood at the age of 40.This is not a phenomenon that is specific to him alone as almost all prophets grew up as other human beings until it gets to a stage when they get the message from Almighty God to start calling people on to the right path.Prophets before him like Moses,Aaron,David,Solomon,Joseph etc were like that in similar manner. Before his birth,his father died.His mother was only 6 when she also died.He grew up being fostered by his grandfather,Abdul-mutallib, until that one passed away and the his care was transferred to his uncle,Abu Talib. While growing up,he worked as a shepherd and at some point got employed by Khadijah who was a trader.With Khadijah,he helped her take her merchandise to Greater Syria. As a young man,he was known as Al-Amin(the trustworthy one) because he doesn’t lie neither does he usurp people’s belonging and trust. It is common for the people of Makkah to keep their treasures with him because he has never lied to them neither has he ever cheated them,infact up till the time he became a prophet to the time he had to leave Makkah for Yathrib,the Quresh were still keeping their belongings with him even though they hated his religion and wanted to kill him. Once,when he addressed Quresh publicly as regards Islam,Qureshi chieftains who sworn enmity to him such as Amr bn Hisham(Abu Jahl),Al-As Ibn Al-Wal,Suhail Ibn Amr,Ummayah Ibn Khalaf,Al-waleed Al-Mugheerah,Abu Sufyan Ibn Harb etc ,still confirm publicly that indeed he is a truthful one as he has never lied to them before.He put to them that “If I tell you that their is an army behind that mountain ready to attack you,they replied in cinfimation that they would beleive him because his reputation as a truthful and trustworthy one is not contended. Qureshi were worshipping Idols as they hold the notion that these idols are like intercessions between them and the almighty GOD-a feature rothinely common among Idol worshippers till date.Qureshi are arabs with their lineage traced up to Ismael(Ishmael),the first child of Abraham. Ishmael and Abraham did not worship Idols as they were both Hanif(Monotheistic).The people who lived with Ishmael while he was live in Makkah also did not worship Idols bur over time and with interaction with other people around them,they got drawn into idolatory.For example,the god-Hubal,whom the pre-Islamic arabs used to worship was a god gifted to them by the assyrian people north of Arabia in those days. With Prophet Muhammed,Idolatory was destroyed and those among the Arabs after reverting to Islam realised their folly of worhsipping Hubal,Al-lat,Uzza etc-gods whom they carve from wood or mud with their own hands. Anyone who wants to debate me,I challenge you to do so.Present your thoughts,back up your opinion with evidences and let hs maintain decorum. May the liars be disgraced.

How come Islam is to be blamed here for what exactly? The Prophet came from Makkah and despite the place being Muslims today,the names of the idols that were worshipped in the pre-Islamic region such as Hubal,Al-lat,Al-Uzza etc are documented. So?

Yes the people in the video may be guilty of double standards because they failed to adhere to the teaching of their religion. Our religion teaching and doctrine is universal and not ethnic biased. This is Hausa/Fulani scholar greeting another Fulani/Hausa Emir. So rest!

Interesting times ahead!

Just keeping this as an evidence that “perhaps it’s permitted to abuse the Obas”

We don’t have various version of Islam that is left to be interrogated and interpreted in the tribal or cultural lens of anyone. ISLAM is the Quran and Sunnah(What the Prophet DID and COMMANDED us to do in MATTERS of the RELIGION),anything other than this is then an innovation(Bid’ah). Did the Quran command us of saint reverence?Did the Prophet engaged in such?NO Did the Quran command us to partake in Urs festival as part of the religion?NO Islam is quite easy,straight forward without deflection and already has its own MANUAL which the prophet advised us to adhere to. As much as myself and millions of other Muslims will not mix this religion with activities that are not sanctioned by it,we also have millions of people who don’t care about Islam and will do partake in everything around them,thereby “preserving the culture” Everyone wins. For those MUSLIMS who want to add extra bits of stuffs to the religion,what they are essentially doing is indirectly questioning the words of Allah as Allah says in the Quran that the religion is already COMPLETE.I hope Muslims in this situation are looking forward to their challenge of the GOD they worship.

He is not redefining Yoruba culture. I don’t think anyone has the power to do that as culture is a concept that has been woven over multiple years of people experiences. What he is saying is that as a Yoruba person and as a freeborn who has liberty to make decision he places Islamic values over any other kind of identity or affiliation and on this,I hold same too as I’m a muslim. Yoruba culture is beautiful,most part of it. When it comes to the traditional religion of the Yorubas,then it stands at an opposing pole to Islam because you can’t combine both. Traditional religion says to worship multiple Orishas but that is antithetical to ISLAMIC position as it does eradicate Orishas and any kind of idolatry practices. Prior to Islam,Arab culture was to ALSO worship multiple gods and their stand on idolatory is so strong and profound that even the Quran mentions it but look at them today. Alot of people erroneously think ISLAM is an “inherent arab culture” but thats not the case.If Islam was arab culture,there wouldn’t be need for a Prophet to rise among them to warn them of their so called culture. For us as Muslims,monotheism-being an Hanif on the path of Abraham all the way to Muhammed(Peace be upon them all),worshipping the one and only true GOD without any intermediary is very important and matters to us. All other things in between are ephemeral and will be treated as such.

Islam and Yoruba Culture: Where We Draw The Line Over the past two days, my timeline has been filled with all sorts of vituperation from self-styled "Yoruba Nationalists." To them, there is no place for people like me in Yoruba land because I openly speak against certain cultural practices. They claim that to be fully Yoruba, you must swallow everything whole without questioning it. I find that deeply appalling, and it is exactly why I want to make this categorical statement. First of all, I am a fully blooded Yoruba man. My Parents are fully blooded Yoruba. I was born in Isolo, Lagos, and I spent over 25 years of my life living, learning, and building in the South West. If there were physical stakes for being a Yoruba, my stakes would be incredibly high. None of you holds a greater monopoly on our heritage than I do, so you can keep your tribal gatekeeping to yourselves. Beyond my ethnicity, I am a Muslim. I identify with Islam completely because I believe, with absolute certainty, that it is the only path to eternal salvation. Having said this, let me clear up a massive misconception: Islam does not come to wipe out a people’s identity. It never has. When the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) arrived in Arabia, he did not systematically destroy the existing culture. He met a people with deep traditions in poetry, hospitality, trade, and respect for kinship. Instead of erasing those customs, Islam embraced, refined, and validated them. The Prophet famously affirmed good cultural values, saying he was only sent to perfect good character. Our beautiful Yoruba values (e.g: the respect we accord elders, our communal solidarity, our rich attire, and our industrious spirit) are entirely aligned with the spirit of Islam. Islam leaves room for culture to breathe, thrive, and beautify our lives. But as Muslims, this is exactly where we draw the unyielding line: Aqeedah (Faith and Monotheism). Culture is beautiful until it attempts to compete with the sovereignty of Allah. A custom is acceptable for a Muslim up until the exact moment it crosses into Shirk (associating partners with God), or requires us to validate traditional incantations, ancestral covenants, and pagan rituals. You cannot claim to submit to the Creator of the universe on Friday, and then celebrate Egun, Eyo or the invocation of Ayajo or traditional spells on Saturday under the guise of "cultural pride." When a cultural practice directly violates the clear commands of Allah and His Messenger, that culture steps down, and our faith steps up. My identity as a Yoruba man is an accident of birth; it is a geographical reality. But my identity as a Muslim is a conscious choice of submission that dictates my eternal destiny. I will continue to love my language, my people, and the noble virtues of our heritage. But I will never compromise my Aqeedah (creed) to appease a tribal sentiment. If standing firmly for the oneness of Allah makes me a rebel in your eyes, then so be it. My loyalty belongs to my Lord first, and everything else comes a distant second. Allah knows best.

The people you are pandering to don’t care as much as you remain a Muslim. Additionally,are you not scared to reference a false narration to the Prophet?

ISLAMIC RULING ON PROSTRATION (INCLUDING BENDING). Prostration in Shariah is of two types. And they both have different rulings with evidence. (1) Prostration for Worship. (2) Prostration for greeting/ respect. Kindly check the attached images for the full ruling

Apart from me, was there anyone that admonished Lateef against prostrating?. Out of mischief, you want to make this about Ilorin Muslims when in fact, some Muslims attacked me for the tweet below attached. When I said it, I didn't make any exception or what part of 'any human' do you not understand? Do you know how many times this has been condemned amongst Muslims? Two of the most highly revered preachers in the history of Ilorin and scholars of their time, Shaykh Kamaluddeen Al-Adabiy and Shaykh Adam Abdullahi Al-Iloriy talked about this. Al-Adabiy most especially gave a verdict on it. In this same space, I made a similar comment on an Emir in Arewa whom people bow too as though they're making sajadah. You also maliciously claim we called it shirk. Kindly show me where in the tweet attached below I said so. You want to show some people's 'double standard' but the only way to do that is to make up lies? FYI, doing it to show respect in and of itself is a sin. It becomes shirk when worship is intended. The fact that someone highly respected does it does not change the fact that it's still unlawful. Some of these people you see that do it know this too, they are just overcome by social pressure, whims and perhaps love for validation. It is amusing how the minds of Yoruba firsters work. An e-diot wanted to badly gotcha me with this.

Let me make a necessary clarification for those intentionally missing the point of my previous tweet: where did I say I am using "Northern Islam" to judge anyone? If you know me well on this space, you know I have always maintained that the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught us that no tribe is superior to another except in piety. Islam is one. What binds us is our faith in the Almighty and your tribe plays no role there. My post was a direct reaction to Man of Letters (this quoted post) cheering a video and claiming: "something powerful must have been invoked on this day" — as a response to a lady who asked why the President’s enemies are confused. To Man of Letters and others like him, this invocation is (or one of) the reason his enemies are confused. So I asked a simple, logical question: what exactly was invoked here, and by whom? Wasiu, the person chanting the Ayajo, is supposed to be a Muslim. Tinubu, the person receiving it, is supposed to be a Muslim. When it is politically convenient, you people scream "Muslim-Muslim ticket" to rally support. Yet, when the conservative North points out the massive compromises and openly says this isn't the type of Islam they want to associate with, you catch feelings. They said it, not me. I am only pointing out the blatant hypocrisy. And if you have claims of Northern Muslims engaging in incantations, bring them, I will openly condemn it. It has nothing to do with tribe, but all to do with Islam. It’s Truth over Tribe for me. Is chanting Ayajo now acceptable for a Muslim because he is Yoruba? Should we celebrate traditional incantations that cross directly into Shirk just because of "Yoruba culture,” If you like, abuse me more, invoking ancestral spells has absolutely no place in Islam, and it makes one question their Islam whether the North says it or not. Allah knows best.

Subhanallahi,a Muslim-an Islamic cleric,propagating the false notion about Sango being in control of thunder.
