Beautiful story alert: Muslims and Christians...UNITING AS A TEAM?!?!?!

[Nick Young]

Co-existing amid terrorist threats in Cameroon. "Christians protect mosques on Friday, Muslims patrol around churches on Sunday to prevent attacks from Boko Haram"


Increasingly frequent Boko Haram suicide attacks in Cameroon’s Far North region have impelled authorities and the population to diversify security methods with the aim to prevent attacks from the Nigerian militant group.

"We have a new technique; Christians secure mosques when Muslims pray… On Sundays when Christians are in places of worship, Muslims patrol around churches to detect any suspicious movement," Mindjiyawa Bakary, governor of Cameroon’s Far North region told Anadolu Agency on Thursday.

This new strategy is currently "being tested in some villages and will be extended to the whole region," Bakary said.

This is in addition to existing security methods, which include vigilance committees in villages near the Nigerian border that work hand in hand with Cameroonian security forces.

Armed with arrows and machetes, they perform daily patrols in villages and stop suspicious individuals. Members of the vigilance community have reportedly foiled several attacks.

A vigilance committee also was established in mosques in Yaounde, Cameroon’s capital city, a year ago.

Sheikh Ibrahim Moussa, imam of the Yaounde Grand Mosque, told Anadolu Agency that the vigilance committee tried to identify suspicious activities around the mosque.

"If we have doubts, we denounce them to the police. Same for those who preach radical Islam," Moussa said.

In recent months, suicide attacks targeting places of worship in Cameroon’s Far North region have increased.

On Monday, at least six people were killed in a Boko Haram suicide attack against a mosque in Cameroon’s Far North region, local administrative officials told Anadolu Agency.

Earlier, another suicide attack had targeted a mosque in Kouyape, in the Far North, killing 13 people.

Since the beginning of the year, Cameroon has suffered "15 suicide attacks perpetrated by Boko Haram militants", according to the country’s minister of communication, Issa Tchiroma Bakary.

Since 2013, over 1,098 civilians, 67 soldiers and three policemen have been killed in Boko Haram attacks in Cameroon’s Far North region near the Nigerian border, according to Bakary.

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

Christians pre-300 A.D. and Orthodox Jewish ARE Muslims as all Muslim means 1st and foremost is "Submission to Allah"... not any face you may attach to it "One is a Jew Inwardly" as the Good Book says.

Your intentions to reunite people of God is commendable, brother Nick; but your mind has created divisions where there were none to begin with. Nick, on this road of spiritual enlightenment you must remember your most precious asset is Knowledge of Him, and when you see that Faith, Love, Peace, and Oneness; are all attributes of Him, you will soon see the Light within. Might I kindly suggest for thee to think like this:

As I have perceived peace.. I understand now that the infinite source and origin of peace is Him.

As I have perceived a sign of evil... I understand that all evil comes from Satan or the Self, and I will repent in order that I may walk closer to Him.

After much pondering the faith deep within your heart will burst through like rivers crushing a dam and flowing out of you in a vibration of healing, inspiring, uplifting clarity!

It has been less than 10 years since my mind has been aware of the Crusades and the animosity withheld and underwent existentialist crisis; unsurprisingly at that stage my heart was rusted with hypocrisy, teenage angst, drama, and a lack of faith, God-consciousness, and extensions of charity. With patience and pure intention, the path of this long, arduous spiritual journey has, within the past 4 months, put me in the home of a Jewish family and a Church singing hymns in reconciliation.

Towards the One, brother.

I don't think he is one.

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

You are all invited to ask yourself the question of "Whom do I serve?" and "Who am I?"

[poido123]

You four are all on ignore.

You are all invited to ask yourself the question of "Whom do I serve?" and "Who am I?"

Contemplate those questions first with sincerity and endurance and then you might just be taken seriously


Don't give one f.ck


Stop talking like a pompous fairytale talking wanker, like you are above us or something.

I have never said anything about you.:confusedshrug:

I just feel your posting have become very extreme for an OTC basketball board because you come into every thread about Islam, not only do you defend it which I have no problems with, but you go around preaching it and telling everyone to convert.

You keep insulting us and telling us Allah can help us.

That is extreme behavior especially for a basketball board. Heck, look at your message under your handle.

You sound crazy. The first Muslims were Jews to be exact.

Oh haelll naw, the first Muslims were mostly ex-pagans, like Big Mo himself

Nope.

Even as children, both Abraham and Muhammad, who lived in predominately pagan/idol worshipping eras were the kind to say "That's a lie." and demonstrated clear monotheistic tendencies.

[Patrick Chewing]

JMoney knows what I'm talking about. He knows that Mo's mother was definitely Jewish and that the Quran is based on the Jewish Torah and Talmud.

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

Your mind only sees the reality of time and is concretized in before-after logic.

But time is not relevant to The Almighty, He sees both the past and the future as one. What is unified, you see as separate, because of the tricks your flawed minds play on you.


Your arrogance wants you to accredit everything good with those of your kin (which is a sin called Asabiyyah; tribalism, racism) i.e. and blinds you to the Truth, neglecting the messages that come into your life to guide you. The Truth is all that is Good comes from God, and all that is bad comes from the carnal self and the devil. And it's the carnal self within Chewing and Young that prevents them from embracing the Truth that has come to redirect them to the Way, the Way that all 3 of them had always travelled.

A Muslim is one who submits their will to God. It does not matter how.

As your heart purifies further along the path, the Light will flow through you in a way less defracted.

Shalom and Salam.

[Nick Young]

Islam is most definitely a rip-off of Judaism, with a bunch of incoherent shit added in courtesy of HoMo-hammed. Halakha became sharia. Kosher became halal. Praying at certain times of day. Head coverings. Fasting.

He basically put Arab words on all the jewish cultural and religious customs and told the Arab pagans around him to follow 'his' shit, thus Islam was born.

The idea that he was actually jewish by birth is def a stretch IMO.

[Dresta]

Whether Mohammed's revelation was false or not, he certainly provided a function that was necessary--in providing the mechanism that would unite continuously warring Arab tribes. The Arab world would probably still be largely nomadic if not for that; they were originally not a strongly religious people, and their motivation was plunder and conquest more than the spreading of the creed (at least for many it was); they would not have been able to maintain their Empire over diverse (and more civilised) peoples if they were true fanatics.
