I say let me remind you, that as at 30th June 2026, the Nisāb for Zakāt is estimated at ₦15,359,500.00.
What does that mean?
Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth a Muslim must own continuously for one lunar (Hijri) year before Zakat becomes obligatory. In this case, based on the current value of 85 grams of gold and the prevailing exchange rate, anyone whose total Zakatable assets—such as cash, savings, gold, silver, business inventory, investments, and money owed to them (after deducting eligible debts)—equal or exceed ₦15,359,500 is required to pay Zakat. The amount of Zakat due is 2.5% (one-fortieth) of the qualifying wealth, not the entire ₦15.36 million. For example, if your net Zakatable wealth is exactly ₦15,359,500, your Zakat would be about ₦383,988 (2.5%), provided you have held that level of wealth for a full Hijri year.
Fear Allãh and give out your Zakāt.
For those beating the drums of war, listen to a man who has seen and fought wars both at home and abroad.

"A true story from Oklahoma, USA: A Chinese woman converted to Islam, but her husband refused. God blessed them with a son and a daughter. However, the husband divorced his wife, took the children with him to America, and forbade the mother from seeing them or travelling to them. The mother remained in China, patient, steadfast, and unwavering in her faith, even if the price was the loss of her husband and children forever. Many years passed… Then suddenly, after more than 15 years, her eldest daughter (now in her twenties) called her and said, "Mom, please come visit us in Oklahoma. Dad has finally agreed." The mother travelled immediately. As soon as she arrived at the Oklahoma airport, she took out her phone, searched for the nearest Islamiccentree or mosque to her daughter's address, wrote the number and address on a piece of paper, gave it to her daughter, and said, "If anything happens to me, call this number immediately." The daughter asked in surprise, "Who are they?" “They are my brothers,” the mother said calmly and confidently. The daughter didn’t pay much attention to the matter. The mother was Chinese, knew no one in America, and didn’t know the mosque, who ran it, or the nationalities of its worshippers… but as a Muslim, she knew that the words “brother” and “sister” in Islam weren’t just words, but a reality. Just three days after her arrival… the mother, may God have mercy on her, passed away suddenly, without any prior illness. The daughter immediately remembered her mother’s words and called the number her mother had given her. What happened next was astonishing: it turned out that the mosque the mother had randomly chosen from the internet was a small mosque in the suburbs of Oklahoma, which owned a plot of land the community had purchased years earlier to be an Islamic cemetery… but they had spent five whole years fighting in the courts to obtain a burial permit, and hadn’t been allowed to bury any Muslims there during that entire time. Just now—only a few days before the Chinese sister’s death—official approval was finally granted, and they could legally use the cemetery. The call came from the daughter, the very next day after the permit was issued! The imam of the mosque himself went to meet the family and told the daughter, "The first grave to be dug in this new cemetery will be your mother's, as an honour to her and to us." On Friday, the mosque was overflowing with people they had never seen before, and an incredible, majestic funeral procession took place: hundreds of people walked behind the coffin, men and women of every race—white, black, Arab, Indian, African, Asian… A sight that the daughter, her brother, and even their father had never witnessed before. The family was shocked and wept, asking, "Who are these people?! What is their relationship to our mother?" The imam replied that they were her brothers in Islam. In Islam, a Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. After the burial, the daughter took out a small piece of paper she found in her mother's bag. It was written in Arabic in her mother's handwriting. She asked the sheikh to tell them what was written on it. He said, "She wrote: 'O God, guide my children… O God, guide my sons…'" When the sheikh translated the supplication for them, her ex-husband said, "I want the grave next to hers." The sheikh told him, "The price for that is for you to bear witness that there is no god but God and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God." He recited the two testimonies of faith and embraced Islam. That same night, her son also embraced Islam and recited the two testimonies of faith. We ask God to forgive her, have mercy on her, and grant her a spacious place in Paradise. This story is 100% true and witnessed by all the Muslims in the area. It has been previously recounted on religious programs."

But truth be told, Rara is not illiterate. Not knowing how to speak English is not illiteracy.
What can you say to Chinese man who don’t know English, or a Frenchman who knows nothing about it, or an Arab who doesn’t know English?
English language in Nigeria is colonial hereditary, with or without English in Africa we’ll do very well in science and technology.
Language shouldn’t be used as a diameter to measure someone’s intelligence.
BREAKING: Hon. Yusuf Adamu Gagdi has been defeated by Dr. John Tongshinen in the APC primary election for the party’s House of Representatives ticket to represent the people of Pankshin/Kanam/Kanke Federal Constituency of Plateau State.
I am happy that the very government they supported and neglected the people for is doing this to them.
@Lonnewulff My issue is : why not sum up that money and create something that can develop his constituents to be self-sufficient rather than waiting for hand-outs like communist ?
@AsiyaRodrigo Question 1: how did you deduce he was faking it ? (Extreme piety)?
Question 2: Are you sure his intentions were all you mentioned before being judgemental?
She said "My husband added another wife. Before then, I was just a normal career woman, balancing house chores and my job. But after he married the new wife, things changed 😭.
The bride is so weird, she’ll wash his clothes, cook all sorts of irrregular dishes… so I also started doing whatever she does 😭. But anytime I catch up, she comes up with another weird thing.
Today, as I was leaving for work, I saw her washing his car. Omo, I just looked at her and said, ‘To kashe ni ki huta?’" 😂
You see as JAMB is lowering it's standards to accommodate incoming students, that's how Nigeria is gradually descending,or rather rapidly descending into total decline to accommodate a few
Nigeria just set 150/400 as the minimum university admission score. That's 37.5%.
Polytechnics? 100/400. A pass mark of 25%.
This is how nations fail.
Meanwhile:
🇨🇳 China — 10 million students compete annually in the Gaokao. One exam. Brutal. No mercy. You either earn your place or you don't.
🇰🇷 South Korea — the Suneung is so serious that military drills stop, flights are rerouted, and the entire country goes quiet on exam day. 31% of students retake it to improve.
🇯🇵 Japan — entrance exams are so rigorous that students spend years in preparation school (ronin) just to qualify.
Oxford and Harvard don't lower the bar so more people can get in. They raise the bar so the best are forced to rise.
Nigeria has over 200 million people, the talent exists, but when you tell a generation that 37.5% is enough, you get garbage in, garbage out — at every level of public life.
The crisis in Nigeria isn't just political. It starts here.

I don't have a 10yr old Jalabiya sha, but I know that jalabiya is just the first cloth I look for in the morning for FAJR prayer.
My wife knows this, she always ensures it is at the top of my box
I just pick and wear and off to the masjid.
And most times, especially on a weekend. The jalabiya goes for the whole day.
Whoever ever invented Jalabiya especially short sleeved ones deserve a special place in Jannah
He made life easy.

Same nigga that went to prison with his father over stolen public funds is gaslighting you like a philanthropist that earned his wealth through hard work.
This country is a mess.
They claim she converted from Islam 2 Christianity, but her actions, kneeling, raising her hand, and holding the mic – and her hijab style don't match that narrative, not agending, not cooperating. Wearing a hijab doesn't automatically make someone a Muslim, and not al Muslims wear hijab. Hijab means 'cover'; it's about modesty, not just one style.
The person behind this should consult Prof. Daud on how Christians are sponsor to learn about Muslim practices in Islamic countries so as to deceive Muslims. he was one of the top Christians, well sponsored by the west to do all this deceptions before Allah saved him to embrace Islam some years back.
She needs a better script.
Islam is not a man made religion, the owner has promised to protect his deen by himself till the end of the world.
