You know one thing about this people is they always try to find a way to link their religion to others just to make you believe that even your own book or tradition prophesied theirs, therefore making them the purer or final truth....
It is a calculated strategy of revisionism and infiltration.
This is how how they manipulate Òtúrá Méjì and why it is a complete fabrication....The Misinterpretation of Òtúrá Méjì by Islamic apologists is that they look at some specific verses in Òtúrá Méjì and desperately try to claim it predicted the arrival of Islam, ablution, and daily prayers. This is a deliberate distortion.
Òtúrá Méjì is an ancient, multidimensional Ifa corpus that deals with the manifestation of speech, communication, and the spiritual alignment of human character (Ìwà). It has absolutely nothing to do with 7th century Arabian dogmas. They are simply cherry picking Yorùbá words that sound vaguely similar to Arabic terms to deceive the uneducated.
Don't forget, they did the same thing with the Odùduwà from mecca myth....This is another colossal lie they manufactured to rob us of our sovereign heritage. They created a ridiculous narrative claiming that Odùduwà was an Arab prince, the son of Lamurudu (Nimrod), who fled Mecca to Ifẹ́. This historical fraud was deliberately pushed to make it seem like the foundational father of the Yorùbá race owed his existence to the Middle East.
Odùduwà was never an Arab. He is an indigenous, primordial patriarch of the Yorùbá people.
It is deeply unfortunate that some of our ancestors, out of sheer tolerance and hospitality, allowed these foreign elements to settle, compromise our spaces, and subtly blend their practices into Ifá cosmology. They mistook aggressive expansionism for harmless spiritual expression, and now their descendants are using that foot in the.door to claim ownership of the house.
But the days of unchallenged spiritual colonization are officially over. Just as the modern Ìṣẹ̀ṣe awakening is successfully dismantling the toxic lie that Èṣù is Satan, we will completely debunk this desperate attempt to Islamicize Ifá.
The truth must be told boldly..Ifá is complete, perfect, and self sustaining. It does not need an imported Arabian textbook to validate its ancient, timeless wisdom.
