Senator (Engr.) Kabir Abdullahi Barkiya representing Katsina Central has said that apart from the military action already being waged by the Nigerian Army at the war front, fervent prayers and fasting can also bring to an end the decades of Boko Haram's terror in Nigeria.

The Senator said that the role of prayers and fasting in overcoming challenges bedevilling the country cannot be ignored.

"While the soldiers are fighting at the war front, it is important for all Nigerians irrespective of their religion including the religious leaders to unite and pray for the country to defeat Boko Haram, bandits and others."

Quoting from the Quran, the Senator stressed that Allah said: "Call upon Me; I will respond to you." Q.40: 60.

Don't forget, the government has done the first thing, which is providing basic equipment to fight Boko Haram, but winning any battle is in the hand of Allah and it requires prayers.

"That's why I strongly support Governor Zulum who appealed to Nigerians to pray and fast for Borno and other places being threatened by insecurity. I read that a lot of Nigerians, both Muslims and non-Muslims observed it.

That is very great. Allah will surely answer the prayers of the oppressed and verily the challenges will be surmounted", he noted.

Senator Barkiya insisted that the Boko Haram terrorists are not Muslims even as the group hide under the name of Islam to commit nefarious activities.

He urged the Muslims to see it as a duty to explain to the people, that Boko Haram members are not Muslims because there is no where in the Qur'an where Allah said innocent people should be killed, indiscriminately or indiscriminately. He, however, advised that those who call Boko haram 'Islamists' should not be condemned, instead educated.

"The media and other ignorant individuals might probably not be informed about the true teachings of Islam. Of course, they should be wise enough to know that this group also kill Muslims, including scholars. But we shouldn't rebuke or fight them. We need to sensitise them.

"Therefore, it's the work of everybody, not only the Ulamah (scholars). It's the work of you and I, including journalists and other professionals. We have to re-orientate and explain to people that Islam doesn't support the activities of the group.

"Boko Haram members are ignorants who were brought up on wrong ideology. They don't know what Islam says. Even, they don't know the fundamentals of Islamic rules and regulations. Hence, the main reason they attack, kill people, Muslims and non-Muslims indiscriminately. That's why they do whatever they like.

"Therefore, it's teamwork for all Nigerians, particularly Muslims, to condemn them and teach people the pristine Islam different from what Boko Haram is preaching. We have to put heads together to see how we can preach to them (Boko Haram members) that what they are doing is wrong. And also tell others that what Boko Haram is doing is not Islamic. So, this is the only way.

"We have to be collective in this task - I mean we the good Muslims. A verse in the Holy Qur'an says; "We will not change your condition except you decided to change your own condition by yourselves". So, that's what we have to be doing fundamentally. Of course, we make people aware that Boko Haram is far away from Islam because they are not doing what Islam says.

Barkiya faults claims of Islamisation Agenda

Senator Barkiya faulted the unfortunate noise about 'Islamisation Agenda', saying it is a propaganda to tarnish the image of Islam because there is no compulsion in the religion, according to Islam.

"Those spreading the Islamisation Agenda talks are another set of ignorant people and it's unfortunate that those propagating this thought are assumed to be knowledgeable. The Qur'an is explicit on this issue. Allah says there is no compulsion in faith. Therefore, to say somebody is coming to Islamise Nigeria does not arise because the Creator Himself said that there is no compulsion in religion.

"You cannot force people to join your religion. It is unacceptable. Therefore, most people are just ignorant and do not have knowledge of Islam. It is our duty as Muslims to explain to people that the perception is wrong because Allah Who owns the religion says you should not force people into it. You can only encourage people until they feel convinced.

"Islam insists that a leader should give everybody his rights, whether Muslims or non-Muslims because Allah will ask you about it on the day of judgement. Everybody under you has his rights. This is what people don't know.

these guys need to stop this logical fallacy. They're believe and practice Islam hence they're muslims. Their criminal nature and your disapproval doesn't change that. Lol you're not the muslim pope/caliph that decides a real believer.

Stories !

Next thing they will tell us they are Ogun worshippers
.

He has a right to say they're not Muslims, I agree. But as long as Islam is what they identify with, and they call Allah and Mohammed, they'll be referred to as Muslims.

If a militia suddenly springs up out of the blues and start killing in the name of Jesus (which we all know the scriptures are against), what would people call them?

So my friend, they are Muslims.

These politicians just dey play champions league unto of our heads.

Like seriously!

What is this one saying when they kill who's name did they call?
Whivh religion or believe call that name?
Who's their mentor?
Which religion promised them virgin for killing?
We are not a fool like you.

Lol...they are Catholics.

They are from Osun.
useless people defending evil.

Now tell us what boko haram are doing the false prophet did not do

Boko haram are the real true Muslim

Religion of piss

Why muslims reject the true islam

But they are head slammers.

All these people above me are not different from boko haram, they are Christian boko haram, because from all indication they are supporting boko haram in disguise...

See them up there, forcing terrorists on us. What is your problem if we reject those bastard? We did not say they are Christians, we just can't accept them in Islam, they are not Muslims, if you want them, go and build church for them and baptize them inside Sambisa!!!

Yes. The same way Sambisa is not in Nigeria.
SMH.

This man is even sympathetic to Boko Haram in all his analysis. Boko Haram are Muslim while those against them are non Muslim.

They're not Muslim. Especially their fighters. How can you claim MUSLIM and go against Quranic verses? How can you be a Muslim and slaughter who're worshipping in Masjid and CHURCH? Yes church. All these were not preached by Islam through the holy prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Don't quote me if you've never read about Islam and Holy prophet but believes MEDIA PROPAGANDAS

Lol logical reasoning is hard for you guys it seems. Islam is an ideology/religion not an institutional club. That's why the argument is a logical fallacy.

Nothing being forced on Muslims by acknowledging their existence. You cant make the argument they anything but muslims since they dont believe in Christianity or identify with it. I think you arguement could be considered a red herring logical fallacy.

Can you Categorically tell us one to two of them?

How can Muslims be killing Muslims almost on daily basis?
They are not Muslims. We reject them and Allah had forsaken them since a long time ago. It's just a matter of little time before they burn in the deepest part of hell!

This your hypothetical argument is what the Spanish refer to as El - Bulshitico!!!

Muslims kill muslims on daily basis all the time. If a Muslim commits murder they're a criminal that believe in Islam. It's almost like you believe muslims dont commit crimes or sins. Your rejection of their actions doesn't mean they're out group. That's not how ideological beliefs work.

Lol now you're engaging in another logical fallacy called circular reasoning. The argument isn't hypothetical since we see it in reality already. The criminsls in question dont become apostates until they renounce the religion. There's plenty of counter examples to prove your logic is faulty.

By your logic:

• Rashida Saidu is not a real muslim because she killed her muslim husband.

• The bandit's cant be real muslims because they commit crimes against other muslims.

Taqiyya (Lies and Deception) is a tool of war!
When you hear them say boko haram are not muslims, just know that ''Truth'' is not in them. Activities of Shekau through boko haram and Usman Danfodio (whom muslims leaders in sokoto caliphate revered as ''hero of islam'') are exactly the same. Danfodio fought for imposition of pure islam through violence and bloodshed (Jihad), and Shekau is currently fighting his through violence and bloodshed, slaughtering thousands of non muslims for total imposition of islam and sharia all over Nigeria.
Take a look at those fighting and secretly ploting for total implementation of sharia across Nigeria and you will see they're all muslims. People like Buhari, Sharia CJN - Tanko, former gov of Zamfara, Sanni Yerima and members of buhari's fulani/Abba Kiyari led regime etc are notable muslim leaders currently ploting secretly to expand Sharia law in the Nigerian constitution, the same Islamic Sharia law Boko haram are fighting for. Yet bloody islamist have the audacity to say boko haram are not muslims because they think we're all fools?
Truely the truth is not in them for their father satan is the father of lies.
ONE NIGERIA IS DEAD!

limeta:

Boko haram are the real true Muslim

Look at those at the forefront of promoting, and campaigning for release of boko haram members as ''Repentant Terrorist'' and you will see they're all muslims. Why are muslims campaigning for amnesty for terrorist ruining their religion? When the same muslims will not hesitate to behead and slaughter people for blasphemy against islam? Taqiyya!
NIGERIAN MUSLIMS may claimed boko haram are not muslims to decieve the gullible. But their actions will reveal and expose them for who they really are. By their lies and actions, Nigerians will know them.
ONE NIGERIA IS DEAD!
