Bull With 'Prophet's Name' On Forehead Draws Crowd
2013-03-19
Damaturu -- A black bull with what looked like the name of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), formed by white skin, inscribed on its forehead is attracting a lot of people to Nguru, Yobe State, all trooping to catch a glimpse of the animal.

Weekly Trust gathered that the Yobe State government had to intervene and bought the bull after people have turned the house of its owner in Nguru into a Mecca of sorts.

Sheikh Yusuf added that "It is telling that the name of the Prophet appeared in white even though the cow is completely black skinned. More so, it was written on the face. This is enough for us to appreciate and preach that Islam is the religion of God," he said.
And the connection of the 'bull' and the Prophet must have significance.....

#3  Never hear of a "Running Iron" it's a rod that heated will "Brand" just like a regular Branding Iron, Why do I mention it, Well, you see when branded the hair grows out white, (If it grows at all) So much for your "Holy" Bull.

Running Irons are used to Change brands, and are Illegal, not that Illegal would make any difference here.

The possession of a running Iron, is proof of rustling, and they're banned. (Hang You for ownership)
