Men, Women Equal in Quran – Mr. Tony Oyatedor
All thanks and praise and glory to the all-wise, all-powerful, ever-present gracious merciful God.
Bismillahi rahman Rahim.
The topic for today is Men, and Women are equal in the Quran, please let’s go through the glorious Holy Quran, the wise reminder in English.
In the book, the cow in English, Surah all begorrah in Arabic in chapter 2 verse 4 we quote
“And who believe in that the Quran and the sunnah in Arabic in English the legal way or ways or others act of worship and statements of the prophet Muhammad peace be upon him that have become models, examples to be followed by the believers which have been sent down, revealed to you Muhammad peace be upon him and in that which was sent down before you The Torah and the Bible e.t.c and the believe with certainty in the hereafter, resurrection, recompense, reward of their good and bad deeds, paradise and hell fire”
Verse 97 says O Muhammad peace be upon him, whoever is an enemy of Angel Gabriel (Jibril in Arabic) let him or her die in his or her fury for indeed he “Angel Gabriel” has brought it the Quran down to your heart by the permission of Almighty God confirming what came before it that is the Torah and the Bible gospel e.t.c and guidance and glad tidings.
Good news for the believers verse 136 says “ O Muslims we believe in almighty God and that which was sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Abraham, Ibrahim in Arabic, Ishmael, Ismail in Arabic,
Isaac, Ishaq in Arabic,
Jacob, Yaqub in Arabic and that which has been given to Moses, Musa in Arabic and Jesus, Isah in Arabic and that which has been given to the prophets from their Lord God.
We make no distinction between any of them and to him almighty God we have submitted in Islam”
Wow! Too much.
Are People Reading The Quran to Comprehend it?
The Fundamental Question is “Are people reading this to comprehend it”??
Now come with us for a quickie in Surah Al-Nisa in Arabic, the women in English.
Oh yes, there’s a whole book dedicated to women in the glorious holy Quran verse 7, this same chapter and verse is in the Torah and bible. It says in the Quran and we quote “There is a share for men and a share for women from what is left by parent and those nearest relatives whether the property is small or large, a legal share period.
Verse 8 : And when the relatives and the orphans and the needy are present at the time of divisions, dividing of property, give them out of the property.
Hear this now and speak to them words of kindness and justice. Oh my goodness. Subhanallah in Arabic, glorified is almighty God in English.
Please let’s go through the Torah and the Bible in the chapter of the book, the book of numbers chapter 27 verses 1-7 and we quote
“they came to the daughters of Zelophehad, son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh from the families of Manasseh, son of Joseph(Yusuf in Arabic) the names of his daughters Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah. They stood before Moses (Musa in Arabic) Eleazer the priest and the leaders and all the congregation at the door of the tent of the meeting saying our father died in the wilderness, he was not among those who assembled together against the Lord in the company of Korah but died for his own sin as did all those who rebelled at Kadesh and he had no sons why should the name of our father be removed from his family because he had no son? Give to us his daughters a possession amongst our father’s brethren. Moses brought their case before the Lord and the Lord God said to Moses the daughters of Zelophehad are justified and speak correctly., you shall surely give them an inheritance among their father’s brethren and you shall make their father’s inheritance pass to them”
Get it?? We hope
Women Are Not Second Class Citizens
As you can manifestly crystal clearly see in all the scriptures, the three Holy Books, nowhere does it say women should be treated as second-class citizens to men?
Men and women must be treated fairly, and equally under the law. Torah, Sharia commandment.
Please let’s go through the best selling book “Leadership” by Mr. Tony Oyatedor on page 22 and we quote
“Maybe it’s time for Nigerian men to try Nigerian women to do something in politics because so far the men are just saying things but not doing things effectively, compassionately, and or properly”
This was written in 1995.
Women In History
History shows many instances wherein times of distress when men despaired women arose and saved the nation.
Please go to the scripture in the Holy Bible, in the book of josh chapter 4 verses 1-15, and get the sacred facts with certainty we quote
“But after a hood died the Israelite again did evil in the sight of the Lord God so the lord God sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan who reigned in hazel the commander of his army was Sisera who dwelt in Haroset Haguim (Hebrew word), (fortress or city of the nations in English) then the Israelite cried to the Lord God for Jabin had 900 chariots of iron and had severely oppressed the Israelites for 20 years. Men, women equal in the scripture
Now Deborah is a prophetess, the wife of Lapidot who Judged Israel at that time, (a woman). She stays under the palm tree of Deborah between Rahma and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim and the Israelites came up to her for judgment and she sent and call Barak, son of Abiniham from Kedesh in Naphtali, and said to him “ has not the Lord, the God of Israel commanded you go gather your men at Metabo taking 10 thousand men from the tribes of Naphtali and Zebulun and I will draw out Sisera the general of Jabin’s Army to meet you at the river Kishon with his chariots and his multitude and I will deliver him into your hand? and Barack said to her if you will go with me then I will go but if you will not go with me then I will not go. (Uhmmm, a woman!) And she said I will surely go with you.
Men, women equal in the scripture
She said nevertheless the trip you take will not be for your glory for the Lord God will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman and Deborah arose and went with Barack to Kadesh and Barack called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kadesh and he went up with 10 thousand men at his heels and Deborah a woman went up with him.
Now Hebah the Cainite of the descendant of Hobart the father in law of Moses had separated from the Cainites and encamped as far away as the oak in Zahananim which is near Kadesh when it was told Sisera that Barack son of Abinoham had gone up to mount Tabo, Sisera gathered together all his chariots even 900 chariots of iron and all the men who were with him from Haroshet, he argued him to river Kishon and Deborah (a woman) said Barack (a man) “Get up for this is the day when the Lord God has given Sisera into your hand, it’s not the Lord gone out before you” so Barack went down from mount Tabor with ten thousand following him and the Lord God confused and terrified Sisera and all his chariots drivers and all his army before Barack with the sword.
Sound familiar??
And Sisera alighted from his chariots and fled on foot.
Sound familiar?
The Queen of England
Almighty God can do all things, not some things., but all things.
Fast forward to the present day world, the Queen of England is the head of the government of Great Britain, Queen of England is also the head of the Anglican Church worldwide. A woman, get it??
Please let’s go through the scripture in the Holy Bible in the book of Titus chapter 1 verses 7-9 we quote
“for bishop and overseer and deacon, deputy overseer as the steward of God must be blameless, not self-willed or arrogant or presumptuous, he or she must not be quick or given to drink or pugnacious, brawling, violence. He or she must not be grasping and greedy for filthy looker, riches, money, financial gain but he or she must be hospitable, loving, and a friend to believers especially to strangers and foreigners, he or she must be a lover of the goodness of good people and good things, sober-minded, sensible, discreet, upright and fair-minded. A devout man or woman and religiously correct, temperate, and keeping himself or herself in hand, he or she must hold fast to the sure and trustworthy word of God as he or she was started so that he or she may be able both to give stimulating instruction and encouragement in sound wholesome doctrine and to refute and convict those who contradict and oppose it showing the wayward their error.
Get it?? We hope
A Woman Can Be a Preacher, Prophet, Imam, etc
Rabbi, a Hebrew word., a teacher in English. An ordained teacher of the Jewish law commandment, Sharia in Arabic.
Rabbi is also the spiritual leader of a congregation, the pastor is a shepherd to feed the congregation with the word, a spiritual leader of a church or congregation.
Imam is the person, man, or woman who leads others in prayer or the Muslim ruler.
Preacher, man or woman who addresses an assembly. A prophet, inspired teacher of the will and purpose of the almighty God, Allah/Jehovah.
Prophethood, wisdom and knowledge, and predictions are a fundamental part of the prophet’s God-given message.
A prophet, messenger of God, to almighty God alone be all the glory.
Now, know this as much as you hope that your plan will go off without a hitch, it’s possible that not everything will go the way you want it to hence in every one of your plans a change of plan should be part of the plan.
Women Should Play Major Roles in the Nation
In every crisis there is an opportunity, we must all work together to create jobs for the community, save money and save it well. Saving money is just as important as earning money as long as the money that is saved is put to work in constructive ways.
No light, no water, no good roads, nothingness everywhere in Nigeria for decades.
Nigeria is the only nation in the entire world with a telephone network problem, the inhabitants have mobile phones but are not enjoying the services of the mobile phones meanwhile the phone companies that run the telephone networks are making billions in profit., also Niger Deltas own the oil and gas that comes from their backyards but have nothing to show for it. What a wicked nation!
Leadership must know that today and the future belong to every Nigerian, not some Nigerians. there is opportunity in every crisis, in the western world United States of America and Europe, they put pain into purpose by inventing things to solve problems regardless of their paper qualification.
In Nigeria we complain about pain without purpose for decades with educated derelicts with paper qualifications without invention please ponder and think about it for a moment perchance you will come up with solutions.
We at Newstime Worldwide are interested in sacred facts with certainty, the three Holy Books, the Torah, Bible and the Quran are books of enlightenment. Always remember religion is simple and cost-free not money but worship almighty God alone. Worship the creator not the creation.
The Importance of Documentation
People all over the world ask us Newstime worldwide “why do you preach to people who are stuck with one-sided religion” we tell them that we preach to them so that we will be free from guilt before almighty God.
Religion is very easy, there is no single hardship in religion, religion is not by force but by choice. No single compulsion in religion. Period.
All scripture in the three Holy Books is for guidance to mankind, there is a need for prevention and management of crisis all over the world, people need to see and hear different perspectives looking at the world. Helping people to prosper is the moral-ethical thing to do, the right thing to do, and the smart thing to do.
God forgives but America never forgets, everything is kept in record for life.
People in the southern part of Nigeria don’t remember anything but people in the northern part of Nigeria don’t forget anything.
With peace, you will feel safe and secure, and there will be prosperity.
Many older people in Africa lack simple helpful devices, simple equipment that could help all the people live on their own is oftentimes out of reach.
A little investment in people is worth peace of mind, if you don’t invest early in the lives of people you will pay later.
Banks and investment companies all over the world must seek to do good not just make money.
We must all be drawn to making sacrifices for larger causes for the good of mankind.
In life, there are rules, accountability, and consequences
Law and order are accountability and consequences, not knowing the future is terrifying.
At Newstime Worldwide we separate truth from falsehood, facts from fiction. We give you the sacred facts with certainty.
We will always keep you informed and inspired, in the most religious intolerant nations due to a lack of knowledge faith can be just cause for imprisonment and or execution, every leader must be an expert in problem-solving and not create problems.
Leadership All Over The World
Leadership all over the world must take a giant leap forward into the future, it’s not about how old you are but about what you are doing for the good of the people and nation.
All the problems in Nigeria today could have been avoided, could have been prevented if Nigeria had compassionate leadership, leadership that cared about all the people, not some people but all the people, leadership that cared about the future of the country, and a good legacy for the leadership.
You must go into the position of leadership with your eyes wide open.
Difficult does not mean impossible, progress relies on learning from errors. The past years are years of errors, mistakes, good mistakes and suffering, pain but also important lessons we can most definitely apply to the future. We have all made good mistakes, Nigeria and Nigerians need a massive shortcut to infrastructural development by compassionate leadership with the reverent fear of almighty God Allah/Jehovah.
Everyone should be told when they have done enough.
Leadership always promises competence before coming to power but the moment they assume office incompetence becomes the mantra.
Leadership always promises unity but brings division and tribal priority instead of unity we see division everywhere.
Leadership must have the courage to do what is right and just, doers get more done while talkers keep talking.
Leadership takes more than just talk it takes rolling up your sleeves and working for good for the people, doing things in stages.
Nothing Happens Automatically Without Work
Nothing, absolutely nothing happens automatically
The job of the police all over the world is to protect the people with courage and to serve the people with compassion.
Gossip, Lies, and misinformation are turning people into monsters before you even meet them, the core responsibility of parents is to spare their children to function as independent adults In society.
Children should be supervised to solve problems on their own all over the world, this information is spreading like a disease.
Leadership must administer facts like medicine. As a physician when you diagnose the problem, you treat it and ultimately cure it.
Same thing in leadership you cannot talk about the problem and not find a solution to solve it.
In most developed countries all over the world, public health care is a basic human right for decades now, leadership in most nations has failed to invest in the basic needs, light, water, road, bridges, infrastructure, and public health care. There is a monumental failure in all of this but change is coming to the entire world and that change is a peace that brings security.
We must give peace to the people of the world sick and tired of war and destruction.
Our fervent prayer is “May almighty God Allah/Jehovah bless the world with peace that brings security(Amen and amen)”
Conclusion
The people of Africa in general, Nigeria in particular have a heart and mind and must do the work not just prayer and fasting alone and going to prayer houses for miracles.
Mankind consistently dies in ignorance of true knowledge. some trust in and boast of weapons but we at Newstime Worldwide consistently trust in and boast of God through the word in the three Holy Books.
If you know the reward, a recompense from God for you doing good deeds for your fellow human being created by almighty God, you will hasten to do good deeds even if you have to crawl to do it.
Once again thanks for taking the time and trouble to listen to Newstime Worldwide.
Please join us next time for another fascinating topic that will leave you scratching your head.
May peace and blessings be upon you.
Assalama aleikum waramatula
