An Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Ibrahim-Nyas has called on Muslims all over the world to be united and avoid things that could divide them.
Nyas, who is the son of late Sheikh Ibrahim-Nyas, a renown Islamic scholar from Senegal, and reviver of Dariqah-Tijjaniya worldwide, made the call in a lecture to mark the 106 post-humus birth day (Maulud) of his late father, born on October 17, 1900.
The lecture was organised by followers of the “Muslim Ahlul Faidha Dariqat- Tijjaniya Movement” in Abuja at the weekend.
He urged muslims to always strive in the cause of Allah and to abide by his injunctions and demonstrate virtues while avoiding evil among the people.
“This was the tradition of the Holy Prophet Muhammad,” he said, and added that a faithful would be closer to Allah, the creator, if his heart was clean of evils.
“This can be attained through seeking Allah’s forgiveness and strict compliance with his commandments,” Nyas said.
He said unity among the Muslims was paramount and urged them to shun things that could result in disagreements or violence in the community.
Also speaking, Sheikh Tijjani Sheikh-Hadi, from Mauritania, urged Muslims to always respect their leaders and constituted authorities. Sheikh-Hadi also urged Muslims to always emulate the good examples of their leaders.
He stressed that during his life time, Sheikh Ibrahim-Nyas, followed the footsteps of the prophet which were in line with prescriptions of the founder of Dariqah- Tijjaniya, Sheikh Ahmad Tijjani,
In his remark, Sheikh Tahir Bauchi, said Islam preaches equality among humanity and emphasised the need to respect each other.
He quoted Qur’anic verses that state that Allah created the different races equally but the closest to Allah was the one who feared him most.
The occasion was attended by people from various parts of the country and scholars from many African countries.
Sheikh Ibrahim-Nyas, an astute Islamic scholar, was involved in spreading Islam and Sufism (mystics) in various parts of the world.
