JNI Urges Muslim To Abstain From Abominable Acts After Ramadhan Fasting

The Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) under the leadership of the Sultan of Sokoto, His Eminence Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, has counselled Muslims never to return to abominable acts after the Ramadhan fasting.

JNI also called the Muslim faithful to intensify prayers for the Ummah against all manners of misfortunes, relief and succour to the security and economic challenges confronting the nation.

In a statement issued by its Secretary-General, Prof. Khalid Abubakar Aliyu, the JNI implored Muslims to extend more alms giving to the poor, the needy, the orphans and the physically challenged in the society, especially now that many families were living beyond the poverty line.

JNI said, “Nigerian Muslims are once again called upon to maximally use these last ten days of Ramadhan to recite more of the Glorious Qur’an, not only in understanding it better, but by living in accordance to its tenets and guidance, for dignity of the individual Muslim and the Ummah, amongst other acts of worships, should be sustained beyond the month of Ramadhan.

“Likewise, the Nigerian Muslims are reminded of the Zakatul-Fitr (Ordained Alms Giving at the end of Ramadhan Fasting), which is to be given out to the needy in the last three days of Ramadhan or in the early hours of ‘Eid-el-Fitr day before the commencement of the ‘Eid prayer”

“While wishing all Muslim faithful Allah’s pardon in these sacred days and after, we pray fervently for His benevolent acceptance of our Ramadhan Fasting, even as we urge all Muslims never to return to abominable acts after the Ramadhan Fasting” the statement added.
