Boko Haram Warns Katsina Risks Attacks If Preaching Law Is Not Repealed


Preaching Law - Boko Haram Warns Katsina

Maiduguri — The Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal Jihad, also known as Boko Haram, yesterday said Katsina State risked sporadic attacks if it did not repeal the bill that was passed by the state House of Assembly which requires Islamiyya schools, preachers and mosques to obtain license before they operate.

The group said the law was highly selective because it did not say anything about regulating the activities of churches and Christian missionaries in the state and that it was aimed at subduing Islam and propagating western ideologies.

A statement signed by Abul-Qaqa, the spokesman of the group, which was made available to newsmen in Maiduguri yesterday said for peace to reign in Katsina, the state government must retract the law. "It has become imperative for me to comment on the draconian law enacted by the government of Katsina State under the leadership of Ibrahim Shehu Shemat.

"The law said henceforth, nobody should teach or carry out Islamic preachings in mosques or Islamiyya schools without permission. It went ahead to say that violators would be incarcerated for between one year and five years; a fine of between N200, 000 to N500, 000 or both.

"We want to reiterate that this is a grand conspiracy aimed at ceiling restrictions on the propagation of the teaching of Prophet Muhammad. It is also the grand conspiracy of the United Nations (UN) which wants to dictate to the world how Islam must be practiced. The UN now controls the world and various governments have been coerced to succumb to its dictates," the statement said.

"Even though we are consoled that Prophet Muhammad had forewarned us that enemies will continue obstructing the religion of God through obnoxious laws and that Muslims will continue to remain vulnerable until the last rope that hold them together, which is prayer is obstructed, we want to reiterate that this is time to act.

The group also claimed that Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano State had goofed for stating that people that memorized the Holy Qur'an do not deserve any salary unless they have additional qualification of western education.

"We want to ask if there is any knowledge that is superior to the knowledge of the Qur'an. Is it good for a man that claimed to be a Muslim to make these proclamations?" the group asked but quickly add that they are not complaining about the issue of denying memorizers of the Qur'an any salary.

The group said Prophet Muhammad had warned that if Muslims gave priority to worldly possession without taking adequate measures to propagate Islam through Jihad, then Allah will subject them to untold hardship until they repent and do the right thing which according to them is Jihad.

Why is Johnathan so useless? What type of useless president is this Johnathan of a person? Nigeria is burning and the silly puppet is hardly doing anything about it. He has even mentioned that some politicians are sponsoring Boko haram so why the hell has he not brought them to book?

I wonder if you guys read through the entire post.

From what I see in the post, Boko Haram are both right and wrong in their demands.
Rights:
Equality of all men. All laws enacted by Kastina State should be for all men to adhere to. Thus, Kastina should enact a law that covers all religions in the state. Every preacher or religious school must obtain a licence from the government before operations.

Wrongs:
Threatening the populace with Bombs. Taking the laws into their hands and not following due process.

Preaching and teaching islam has nothing to do with govt,the govt official are corupt and dull so by making this as a law it means no good muslims will tell people what they are doing is no good in islam,they will give license to those who will praise them .according to islam any one who read and know the full meaning of the holly qour'an has a right to preach and teach it with out any one permission.
Re: Unlicensed Preaching Law: Boko Haram threatens To Attack Katsina by okunoba(m): 3:58am On Sep 21, 2011
@Saintneo, is very right. Why does the law apply only to muslims and not other religions. But the threat of violence by them is so wrong. Violence can never be right.

Boko haram wil nt bomb our country again. D nxt tym such idea(even if by mere imagination) enters their head, they wil 4l down dead. And their sponsors hv jst 3days(beginnin frm 2de 2 repent). Failure 4 dem 2 do so means they are incurrin God's wrath. Pls, if ur related 2 any of them(the bombers or the sponsors), go and warn them NOW! Any one that says we wont rest, the person wil rest in peace. I'v only spoken as God's oracle

The group also claimed that Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano State had goofed for stating that people that memorized the Holy Qur'an do not deserve any salary unless they have additional qualification of western education.

"We want to ask if there is any knowledge that is superior to the knowledge of the Qur'an. Is it good for a man that claimed to be a Muslim to make these proclamations?" the group asked but quickly add that they are not complaining about the issue of denying memorizers of the Qur'an any salary.

I think boko haram has got some sort of message which is yet unclear to us. Because the above statement (precisely bolded) shows that they are more of expressing a "state of pity" or being vulnerable, more of expressing defeat in a sorrowful way to get sympathy.

The whole statement shows that they have been put to a very tight situation where they now result to Sorrowful, sympathetic (not Dictating or Autocratic) commands again.

there is something restraining them from being in command and carrying out there useless killings. But the have resorted to crying to win sympathy.

I am very sure that they will make another useless statement about this as that is there best weapon now (Tongue lashing)

Best bet, their sponsors know that the heat is on them as the Government have strong eye on them and waiting them to make any move.

@kuyorodele though am not a muslim but this what quran say about jihad:
"Jihad is holy fighting in Allah's Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allah's Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.

Why are men un-solicitedly fighting for ALLAH. This is a gross mis-interpretation of belief, GOD is supreme and fights for HIMSELF.

The world is becoming very atheist cas if you beleive GOD as supreme, why fight for him?

To avoid confrontation
To promote peace
To present a universal message
To show that all are equal before the law
To be wise and not just clever
To rule with the wisdom of Solomon

Perhaps Katsina State Government should give clearance to all preachers in all religions before they preach. The muslims may be the target of this law (and for good reasons) but for the points given above the law can be all inclusive. Besides Katsina state is at least 90% Muslim so the state could be wiser. BH so far has not affected Kasina very much except for the Bank and Police Station attack at Kankara or Kankia (I believe). From now on it could be different. the government thru it's unwise legistative language is putting Katsina in the firing line of a terror group and hence escalating the crises nationally.

Thanks. Also, can you pls explain the concept of the 77 virgins? I'm seriously considering Jihad but first I need to be assured of the 77 virgins so I won't be deceived at the end of the day.

@focativ

The concept of 77 virgins  is not there in islam & if there is something like it then is more important for the opponents of the Muslims because they have modified and exaggerated it to ridiculous proportions. The objective is to potray Muslims as illogical and to reduce their feelings to absurd & not really human. It is much better to say that Muslims kill and die in the process because they will have 77 virgins than to say that American foreign policy and world order is oppressive to Muslims and increasingly so since the fall of communism and Muslims are over reacting to injustice. You will not say that because you are admitting that Muslims are also human with human emotional phsiopharmacology which go wrong with stress and injustice. It's more convenient to potray Muslims as most ridiculous and not quite human. It makes it easier to enjoy and laugh at their suffering. Hence the concept of 77 virgins,

abegi nagoma close your mouth go siddon wan place.

why are you fighting yourself.

call a spade a spade. why would a Religion encourage you to kill fellow humans and yet you want people to regard you as human.

This senseless Jihad is enshrined in your quran during the time of Mohammed which is before , "American foreign policy and world order is oppressive to Muslims and increasingly so since the fall of communism and Muslims are over reacting to injustice .

so shut your stinky jihad mouth.

may that jihad your support be for you all

Rubbish because we allow you people to talk here you want to spew shit

Re: Unlicensed Preaching Law: Boko Haram threatens To Attack Katsina by nasoeb: 10:36pm On Sep 21, 2011
why wont American foreign policy / World Order be hard on people like you who have been brainwashed into taken lives given to humans by God? and yet you claim God said you should take life.

if God can give live without you scums why do you think he can not take that same life? why must he need you to take life which he NEVER needed you during creating that same life.

You people are just lucky, its high time you all are treated worst

and you have the effrontery to come here and open your loud mouth to defend boko haram.

what you sow you MUST reap.

boko haram / jihad will be what will wipe you all in surface of this earth.

if you feel you can take somebody's life, then you don't deserve yours

BASTARDSS
Re: Unlicensed Preaching Law: Boko Haram threatens To Attack Katsina by sirjec(m): 3:54pm On Sep 22, 2011
You people are funny

You said the muslims need Islamic banking and it was instituted in line with islam and you supported it.

Now you same people are crying that a law did not affect Christians. Is this not hypocrisy

If the law had affected only the Christians and the Christians are fighting against it, you would have supported your government.

Bringing this law into perspective:

Christians dont have jihad and hence dont preach jihad rather preach love even when they are dying.

Who needs this law? Is there anybody who chooses to take drugs for an ailment just because his brother (co owner of the father's patrimony) who is ill takes such drugs?

Muslims need drug not Christians and it is funny to give both similar drugs to take when the former is sick and the later is healthy and vice versa
