The reasons why Americans are accepting Islam in droves need to be studied despite the clear hate from the leadership of the country. Time will definitely reveal the truth. I say this all the time.

I thought we all agreed on freedom of choice for all, so why are you so pained? Mind you, she can’t shake hands with anyhow men like you. For the record, she can shake hands with her husband, her father, her grandfathers, her sons, her brothers, her paternal and maternal uncles, and her nephews. Unfortunately, you and any of those men in the video are not among them, so you have no right to a handshake and you should respect that. Boundary setting is a choice, deal with it.

Go to the CS and see the definition of tolerance we preach in Nigeria. Clowns 🤡 I thought we all agreed on freedom of choice for all, so why are people so pained by the fact she didn’t shake hands with strangers? Mind you, she can’t shake hands with anyhow men like you. For the record, she can shake hands with her husband, her father, her grandfathers, her sons, her brothers, her paternal and maternal uncles, and her nephews. Unfortunately, you and any of those men in the video are not among them, so you have no right to a handshake and you should respect that. Boundary setting is a choice, deal with it.

Point of correction, we Muslims don’t pray because of worldly needs alone. And asking what a billionaire is still praying for shows a big misunderstanding of what prayer means in Islam. Salah is about submission, gratitude, and acknowledging our status as servants of the Almighty. Wealth cannot not buy you a pass out of your obligations to the Creator. A rich man needs forgiveness, peace of mind, good health, and a favorable standing in the hereafter just like anyone else. On that prayer mat, your net worth is zero. In fact, some of the ordinary persons behind him, might hold a higher status in the sight of the Almighty. So, Dangote is sitting there as a servant of Allah fulfilling his ultimate purpose of why he is on earth in the first place. Allah knows best.

If there is any reason why I would always want our young females to study medicine and surgery, it is because of cases like the one. Normally, in Islamic ethics, when a female patient is involved, this is the hierarchy: 1. A female doctor if available. 2. A male doctor if no female is available, because of necessity. At that stage of necessity, character and professional trust is given the highest priority. If a non-Muslim male doctor is a man known with high integrity and safe professional ethics, he would be ranked higher than a Muslim male doctor who is reckless or untrustworthy, unless the Muslim doctor is a person of proven sound character and competence. Our young females need to be admitted more into these medical courses. There are just too many women out there with silent pains in their hearts over uncomfortable cases like this, and we need to close that gap.

Now that Ronaldo scored two goals, what can she do? What this lady did is a classic example of Yameen al-Lajaj wa al-Ghadab, which translates to an oath of stubbornness or extreme emphasis. When analyzing this, scholars look directly at the intent. I am sure she did not write those words because she wanted to be barren. She used her future family as a reckless betting chip because she was completely confident Ronaldo would not score. It was just a careless gamble of words to drive engagement. Even though she is not a Muslim, this touches a deep spiritual reality that both Muslims and Christians recognize. Words carry weight. The Prophet (peace be upon him) warned people never to invoke harm on themselves because those reckless words might align with an hour of acceptance from God. In the Christian tradition, Proverbs says life and death are in the power of the tongue, and Christ cautioned against making rash, sweeping oaths that bring curses on yourself. Treating your health or lineage as a prop for social media metrics is a dangerous game. What can she do to fix this mistake? The spiritual remedies across both faiths give a clear path forward: 1) Sincere Regret: She needs to turn to God, acknowledge the recklessness of the tweet, and ask for forgiveness. 2) The Power of Charity: In Islam, breaking a rash oath of emphasis requires an expiation, which is feeding or clothing ten needy people. This matches Christian principles perfectly, where almsgiving and helping the poor invite God's mercy and shield a person from affliction. Feeding the hungry is a universal way to show God you value His blessings. 3) She should delete the post and replace the old energy by actively praying for her own wellness, protection, and future children. I pray these words don’t hurt her in the future. Allah knows best.
