Rivers State Mosque Demolition: Call For Caution And Restraint Pending Resolution Of The Quagmire-JNI

Jama’tu Nasril Islam (JNI) under the leadership of His Eminence, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, CFR, mni, as custodian of the deen, the Islamic Religion in Nigeria, whose revered symbol is inherent in the Masjid, the Mosque, described by our revered Prophet, on whom peace and benediction of Allah will be upon, as Baitullah, the house of Allah, is without any doubt pained by the act of demolition of Trans-Amadi Mosque under whatever guise.

 

However, at trying moments such as this, Muslims should be guided by the Qur’anic teaching of introspection and perseverance, truthfulness and sincerity.

 

Such stand fetches for them Allah’s guidance on how the situation would be approached and solved.

 

The above approach is to enable the Muslim Ummah come together in unity under its leadership, which I swear in the name of Allah the Exalted, right from the time the dastard act of the Trans-Amadi Mosque demolition took place, is working round the clock in finding lasting solutions with wisdom, for what the Rivers State Government did unfortunately, in order to forestall future occurrence of such abominable act in Rivers State and anywhere in Nigeria.

 

Muslims are therefore called upon to be calm and restraint, and be prayerful, while the leadership seeks for concordant and accordant redress, within the shortest possible time frame in-sha-Allah.

 

Allah the Exalted says:”If you patiently persevere and fear Allah, their machinations and intrigues will not be injurious to you” Qur’an 3:120.
