No society wants you to become wise: it is against the investment of all societies. If people are wise they cannot be exploited. If they are intelligent they cannot be subjugated, they cannot be forced into a mechanical life, to live like robots. They will assert themselves – they will assert their individuality. They will have the fragrance of rebellion around them; they will want to live in freedom.

Freedom comes with wisdom, intrinsically. They are inseparable, and no society wants people to be free. The communist society, the fascist society, the capitalist society, the Hindu, the Mohammedan, the Christian – no society likes people to use their own intelligence because the moment they start using their intelligence they become dangerous – dangerous to the establishment, dangerous to the people who are in power, dangerous to the “haves”; dangerous to all kinds of oppression, exploitation, suppression; dangerous to the churches, dangerous to the states, dangerous to the nations.

In fact, a wise man is afire, alive, aflame. He would like rather to die than to be enslaved. Death will not matter much to him, but he cannot sell his life to all kinds of stupidities, to all kinds of stupid people. He cannot serve them.

Earlier this week, President Tinubu addressed the nation on economic policies and interventions to mitigate the impact of removing petrol subsidies on Nigerians. Following his broadcast, a good brother from Bauchi State wrote an insightful letter to the President, expressing concerns about certain policies that may have adversely affected the Muslim Ummah in Nigeria. While many people applauded the brother's perspective, some individuals with opposing views resorted to criticism and derogatory remarks against him and the entire Muslim community. Read his letter here

Motivated by this incident, I feel compelled to shed further light on why the Muslim Ummah in Nigeria (and Muslims in general) abstains from taking loans with interest. This practice is not merely a matter of personal preference; rather, it is deeply rooted in our religious beliefs and the teachings of the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah.

As devout Muslims, we firmly adhere to the divine guidance provided in the Holy Qur'an. In Surah Baqara Chapter 2: 278-279, Allah issues a stern warning against engaging in interest transactions, stating,

"O Believers, fear Allah and give up that interest which is still due to you, if you are true Believers; but if you do not do so, then you are warned of the declaration of war against you by Allah and His Messenger...."

This clear prohibition serves as a powerful reminder that Allah has declared war on those who persist in dealing with interest. As believers, we fear the consequences of such actions and strive to uphold the principles outlined in the Qur'an.

Furthermore, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the gravity of engaging in interest transactions through various Hadiths. One such narration from Sahih Muslim highlights the severity of the sin, "The Messenger of Allah cursed the one who consumes riba (usury or interest), the one who gives it to others, the one who writes it down and the two who witness it, and he said: 'They are all the same.'"

This Hadith underscores the severity of dealing with interest and its detrimental effects on society. As Muslims, we seek to avoid any practices that are explicitly cursed by Allah through his Messenger of Allah.

It is essential to recognize that our faith guides us not only in acts of worship but also in our everyday financial dealings. By abstaining from interest-based loans, we strive to maintain our integrity as believers and protect ourselves from the consequences warned by Allah and His Messenger.

In conclusion, our refusal to partake in loans with interest is deeply rooted in our commitment to follow the teachings of Islam. As we commend President Tinubu's efforts to address economic challenges, we humbly urge him to consider alternative financing methods that are in harmony with Islamic principles.

May Allah guide us all on the path of righteousness and bless our nation with prosperity and unity.
