How many of his children are almajiris? NONE.

How many fulanis have their children as almajiris? NONE

Conclusion: Almajiri system is religious deception by the fulanis and the elites in the north. Pure oppression of the down-trodden in the name of religion

Almajiri is a system of Islamic education practiced in northern Nigeria. Almajiri derives from an Arabic word, rendered "al-Muhajirun" in English literal translation, meaning a person who leaves his home in search of Islamic knowledge.


Underaged children are mostly the victims they begged and cater for themselves at an early age
Some at age 5

The Emir of Kano was absolutely right. With this type of mindset, the majority up North can only sink deeper into poverty.

This man is comparing his privileged child who can have an Arabic teacher to himself to the poor, plate carrying almajiris on the street. A world apart indeed!

Cos he knows that the answer to almajiri will mean they can't Mary and divorce at the rate their religion accepts for them to.

Almajiri is caused by poor people marrying numerous wives and birthing kids they can not care for. A man marries 4 wives, he gets tired of them(since his religion permits him to explore vaginas) he divorces 1 by saying so 3 times, kicks her out and brings in a new wife. Now his ex leaves her kids behind, goes to marry a new man. These innocent kids run away from the evil step mothers and go live in the streets, Almajiri is born. To curb it, the sexual excesses of the men esp as regards marrying numerous women they can not care for will be cut. These men will not agree.

Typical mindset of the educated and political elites from his side of the Niger area while they ship their children abroad. Can he compare the environment where his son is 'studying' to the ones millions of 'slaves' children' under their captivity are learning. How is Almajiri the culture of Northern Nigeria Muslims and not that of the original owners of the religion- SAUDI ARABIA?

The son Adamu is using as example here is well dressed, well housed and well fed. How do you compare this with the typical Almajiris on the streets of Kano, Kaduna, Zaria, Sokoto, zamfara, kebbi, Bauchi, Kastina, Gombe, Yola, etc?

Hypocrisy is what is hampering progress in our country. Many of the almajiris on the streets of northern Nigeria are not just malnourished. They are unwell, many with physical ailments without attention from the "Mallam" in whose care they are supposed to be.

Two days ago, I saw in the street of one of the States in Northern Nigeria, a young boy of about 7years whose both legs are ridden with open wounds. Round on each leg. I even snapped the leg and posted on Facebook, drawing attention to the plight of the young child. The little I was able to do was sending a friend, fellow northern Muslim who took the boy to a drug store where medications were bought for him. One for surface application to stop the itching which prevents the boy from sleeping at night, and the other for oral application.

Mallam Adamu do not know the plights of the Almajiri children in Nigeria in as much as his child's Quranic study is (in his opinion) the same with Almajiri conditions.

In this system of teaching children the Quran, can these children be admitted into the university from the almajiri school?
Are these children learning mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, economics, Geography, agriculture, accounting, commerce along with the Quran in the almajiri system?

If they are not, then it is stupid scheme it will never be well with that kind of culture, northern Nigeria is coursed and the region is terribly drawing Nigeria as a whole backward

Dear Southerners stop giving northern beggars money,if they want to starve to death on the streets let them or better still let them follow tomatos lorries back to their States.


You can only save a person who wants to be saved as it stands northerners like their life and are quite happy the way they are. They are better left in the 18th century while their elites feed fat off their stupidity.

Muslims in the South west send their children to quranic schools, either in the evenings after their formal school, or during the weekends.
These children learn the Quran, and do it wonderfully too, unless their scholars are too harsh on them then they start running away from Arabic school.
Every child in the north should be with their parents and in regular school. After school, they can go to their scholars for lessons. The children of the rich northern men also learnt the Quran and are even better reading it than those under the almajiranci system
When they live with their scholars, they are starved and made to beg because there's no way the mallam can feed them all without a source of money

Almajiri is not Northern Nigeria culture, it's more like a poor adoption of Arabic madrassa school system.

In South-Western Nigeria they have Koranic study every Friday evening for a couple of hours.

At school Muslim student has the choice to select Islamic religious knowledge as an elective in primary and secondary school. The simple solution is to do away with Almajiri school and copy the South West Muslims.

The mallams/scholars should be held responsible for any child under them, that is not in a formal school. After school hours, they can go back to him for tutoring.
If he fails to send them to government school, he should be arrested.
Secondly, if he feels he cannot cope with the finances of these children, then their parents should be made to pay monthly fees for their feeding, clothing and accommodation otherwise their children go back to them.
The only way I support the government getting involved is by arresting mallams who don't send their wards to school and parents who also don't. They can support the mallams by pursuing parents who fail to send the mallams feeding fees for their children.
