Here's the story of 22-year-old Doris, who is completely obsessed with life in the 1950s. From her everyday outfits to her home interior, everything looks like it came straight out of that era. Her lifestyle is even costing her a lot of money because she hired a professional to teach her the etiquette and manners of people in the 1950s. 🤔🙄

Mtcheew na Muslim

[𝑰𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒔 𝑨. 𝑶𝒏𝒊 PhD @IdrisAOni1]

EVERY CHILD WAS BORN A MUSLIM: THE PRIMORDIAL COVENANT WITH ALLAH PRECEDES ETHNICITY, FAMILY AND CULTURE.

One of the fundamental teachings of Islam is that every human being is born upon al-Fiṭrah (الفطرة), the original natural disposition upon which Allah created humanity: an innate inclination towards recognising, worshipping and submitting to the One Creator.

This understanding is rooted in the primordial covenant that Allah established with Adam and his descendants before their earthly existence.

Allah says:

"And [remember] when your Lord took from the children of Adam, from their loins, their descendants and made them testify about themselves, [saying], 'Am I not your Lord?' They said, 'Yes, we testify.'" Qur'ān 7:172.

This verse establishes the primordial testimony of humanity to the Lordship of Allah. It is a foundational part of the Islamic understanding of humanity's relationship with its Creator.

The Prophet Muhammad (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam) further explained:

"Every child is born upon the Fitrah, then his parents make him a Jew, a Christian or a Magian." Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1385; Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2658.

This hadith is particularly significant. It establishes that religious identity acquired through family upbringing and social environment comes after birth. The child's original disposition is not the product of Arab ancestry, Yoruba heritage, Persian identity, African culture or any other ethnic affiliation.

Consider the implications of this teaching.

1. Islam precedes ethnicity. A person does not become Muslim because of being Arab, Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani or any other ethnic group. Submission to Allah is the original religious disposition of humanity.

2. Family identity comes after birth. One is born into a particular family, community and cultural environment. These affiliations do not precede the primordial covenant with Allah.

3. No ethnicity owns Islam. Islam is not the exclusive property of Arabs or any particular race, tribe or civilisation. It is the religion of submission to Allah, the Creator of all humanity.

4. Religious conviction must transcend family pressure. A Muslim's ultimate loyalty belongs to Allah and His guidance, not to family interests, ethnic sentiments or cultural expectations when they contradict divine principles.

5. Justice must never be sacrificed for kinship. Loving one's parents, siblings, relatives and ethnic community does not mean defending their wrongdoing. One cannot support oppression, injustice, corruption or falsehood simply because those responsible are one's relatives or fellow tribespeople.

6. Cultural heritage does not override divine guidance. Every culture deserves fair understanding and respect, but no cultural practice, ancestral tradition or ethnic sentiment should be placed above the commands of Allah.

The important distinction is that being born upon the Fitrah does not mean that every newborn possesses the conscious religious knowledge or legal responsibilities of an adult Muslim. It means that humanity's original disposition is one of recognition and submission to its Creator.

THE ULTIMATE LESSON

Before you became Yoruba, Hausa, Arab, Persian, African or European, you were among the descendants of Adam who testified to the Lordship of Allah.

Your family gave you a surname. Your community introduced you to a language. Your environment exposed you to a culture. But none of these created your primordial relationship with Allah.

Your ancestry is not your Creator. Your ethnicity is not your Lord. Your family is not your ultimate authority.

Allah is the Lord of humanity, and our ultimate allegiance belongs to Him.

May Allah keep us firmly upon the Fitrah, guide our families and grant us the courage to uphold truth and justice above every worldly attachment. Āmīn.

Awolowo not only introduced free education, but he mandated it. He made sure every family had a chance at literacy.

He led by example by enrolling his own son in public school.

Yesterday GRV said he’s going to abandon the 4th mainland bridge idea and replace them with 3 proposed parallel bridges.

Unfortunately his proposal is worse than what the Lagos state government currently has in place.

I don’t know if he did that ignorantly (which is an embarrassment to his MIT architectural degree) or he intentionally twisted the facts to deceive the gullible public who don’t have access to the plans of the state.
