Saudi Energy Minister HRH Prince Abdulaziz: I'm a Muslim and Russia is not Catholic, but still we do go by until death do us part. Putin: Up to 15% of citizens of the Russian Federation are Muslims. And they don't have any other home country.

Saudi Energy Minister HRH Prince Abdulaziz: I'm a Muslim and Russia is not Catholic, but still we do go by “until death do us part.” Putin: Up to 15% of citizens of the Russian Federation are Muslims. And they don't have any other home country. Mr: Why is Nigeria still living in Stone Age - with a cursed system that’s intent on forcefully converting its about 60% Christian population to Muslims?

Respect peoples choices, we are all adults If you lead with insults, you will be insulted too. No one is feeding each other Here, even if you are feeding me na your food you go comot. Nobody has a monopoly of madness, Respect works both ways. None of your candidates and politicians are Saints, None of them! No messier anywhere amongst them but at least we choose the best of the lots based on performance and individual assessments.. That choice is God given and must be respected in every public domain. Sell your candidates, highlight what they will do differently, Give people the opportunity to choose based on their convictions and not insults otherwise what you dish out you will get back in manifolds. It's the simple law of nature We all have the capacity to think and reason , Be objective and criticise constructively. That's basic common sense

Ever since you were born a Christian, has any Muslim ever forced Islam on you? Has any Muslim ever personally preached Islam to you? Most Muslims in Nigeria simply mind their own business.

The word "Shari'a" is what they don't want to hear, not their fault. It is a result of what they were taught in their Sunday schools. It is not easy to change a childhood mindset. Deliberate misinformation, wrong programming. Anything Islam has to be fought blindly.

Putting the Question of Sharīʿah in Yorùbá Land in Proper Perspective Much of the controversy surrounding Sharīʿah in Yorùbá land is driven more by fear, misinformation and politics than by a proper understanding of what is actually being requested by Muslims. The first point that must be clearly stated is that a full-fledged Sharīʿah legal system, in the sense of a comprehensive state-wide Islamic legal order governing criminal, civil and public affairs, is neither practical nor presently attainable in the multicultural and multi-religious context of Yorùbá land. The demographic realities, constitutional framework and religious diversity of the Southwest make such a project unrealistic. Indeed, the overwhelming majority of Muslims advocating for Sharīʿah are not calling for the establishment of an Islamic state, nor are they demanding the replacement of existing constitutional structures with a comprehensive Islamic legal system. What many Muslims have consistently requested is something far more limited, reasonable and constitutionally defensible: the opportunity to voluntarily access Islamic legal provisions in matters that directly concern their religious obligations and personal lives. These include areas such as: - Marriage and divorce. - Inheritance and estate administration. - Family disputes. - Endowments (waqf). - Contracts and certain aspects of personal transactions. - Religious mediation and arbitration. These are matters in which Muslims already believe they are religiously bound by Islamic teachings. The demand is therefore not for the imposition of Sharīʿah upon non-Muslims but for the accommodation of Muslims who voluntarily wish to regulate aspects of their personal affairs according to their faith. This is neither unusual nor unprecedented. Across the world, plural societies provide mechanisms through which religious communities can resolve personal and family matters according to their traditions, provided such arrangements operate within the framework of the law and with the consent of the parties involved. Viewed from this perspective, Sharīʿah Panels are not instruments of domination but mechanisms of religious accommodation. They are comparable to mediation and arbitration systems through which citizens voluntarily seek guidance and dispute resolution based on shared values and beliefs. The intense opposition to even these limited arrangements raises important questions. If Christians may organise their affairs according to Christian principles, and if practitioners of traditional religion may organise aspects of their communal and religious lives according to their convictions, on what basis should Muslims be denied the opportunity to seek guidance on inheritance, marriage, divorce and related matters from institutions grounded in Islamic law? To oppose a full Islamic legal state is one thing. To oppose Muslims having access to voluntary Sharīʿah-based mediation and personal law mechanisms is something entirely different. The latter begins to resemble a systematic denial of the legitimate religious rights of Muslims. Equally troubling is the recurring attempt to portray every discussion about Sharīʿah as a "Fulani agenda" or an externally inspired project. Such claims are historically inaccurate, intellectually weak and socially divisive. Islam did not arrive in Yorùbá land through Fulani people. Yorùbá Muslims are not recent converts. They are indigenous sons and daughters of the soil whose ancestors have practised Islam for centuries. The desire of a Yorùbá Muslim to distribute his estate according to Islamic inheritance law, contract his marriage according to Islamic principles or resolve family disputes according to Islamic teachings has nothing to do with Fulani nationalism, Fulani expansionism or any external ethnic agenda. It is simply the desire of a believer to practise his religion. 1/2

I've been thinking about this Sharia debate for weeks now, & honestly, it is mind-boggling. What frustrates me is not the debate itself, but d priorities. Across much of the world, nations are focused on innovation, tech, productivity, educ, & economic growth. Yet in 2026, one..
