One thing that is certain is ignorance!
It's the same as Sukuk and Islamic banking.

They're always afraid and in the end Islam will have its way naturally!

Why the Big Deal About the Shariah Arbitration Sitting in Oyo?

MISCONCEPTIONS DEBUNKED

1. "It’s a Shariah court."
- No, it is not a Shariah court. It is an arbitration panel that provides mediation and resolution of family disputes based on Islamic tenets.

2. "It’s a new idea."
- This is false. Arbitration panels guided by Islamic principles are not new in Oyo State. Similar panels have existed in Ibadan, Ogbomoso, and other parts of the Country for years.

3. "It will Islamize Oyo State."
- This is baseless fear-mongering. The panel is exclusively for Muslims and does not affect anyone outside the faith

Why the Big Deal About the Shariah Arbitration Sitting in Oyo?

It is baffling to witness the Islamophobia that often arises from certain quarters in the southwestern part of Nigeria, especially when it comes to issues like hijab or, more recently, the Shariah arbitration sitting in Oyo. This reaction seems unwarranted, especially considering that the Nigerian Constitution explicitly guarantees freedom of religion and association.

LIES!

1. Arbitration, based on Sharia law but not on Nigerian law is a deviation from the Nigerian justice system, therefore it is wrong.

In fact, it is deceptive & misleading that you call it an "arbitration panel" instead of "Sharia Court of Arbitration" which it actually is, so one way or the other, it is a Sharia court, where they hope to commence the usage of Sharia Law in the South West.

2. Similar Sharia courts of Arbitration established in any part of the South West must also be disbanded. There is no Nigerian act that supports the enforcement of law outside the provisions of the Nigerian judicial system! If Christians also begin using Mosaic Law, eventually forcing Muslims to obey in majority Christian communities, most of you denying the extremism in Islam would be the first to report to the government and protest.

MURIC and the Islamic Council were still protesting against Bishop Oyedepo's Air Strip, something the government didn't contribute 1 kobo to, yet you are all out here saying people shouldn't protest! Never!

3. Stop lying. The eventual aim of Sharia is to enforce Islamic law. I have seen videos of people in Afghanistan beheading their wives because of the Islamic law that allows it.

‼️ Was Deborah a muslim? She was stoned and burnt to death for telling people not to discuss religion in a school WhatsApp group, but because she mentioned "Mohammed" you guys murdered her! We know what a muslim-dominated society looks like, we don't want it!

‼️ If you want to keep maiming each other, flogging each other as per Sharia Law, please restrict it to the core muslim North where there is mass illiteracy and terrorism.

Why is there such uproar whenever Muslims try to exercise their constitutionally protected rights? Why should my wife, sister, or daughter be subjected to hostility for simply wearing hijab—a personal and religious choice that is not forced upon anyone? Let us be fair and just!

WHAT IS THE SHARIAH ARBITRATION SITTING?

The arbitration panel being unveiled in Oyo State is not a Shariah court but rather an arbitration sitting, akin to other family arbitration bodies such as those in Lagos or the well-known Agidigbo arbitration ("Kokoro Alate". The only difference is that this arbitration panel will operate according to Islamic principles and will cater exclusively to Muslims.

This initiative poses no threat to anyone’s rights or beliefs, as it is entirely voluntary and limited to Muslims. Such arbitration panels are entirely legal and protected under the Nigerian Constitution.

WHY THIS SHOULDN’T BE AN ISSUE

Muslims in Oyo State have every right to exercise their religious beliefs and establish such an arbitration panel. It is designed to benefit society by preventing divorces, mediating family disputes, and fostering harmony within Muslim homes. These are positive contributions to the community, not threats.

We must be fair and respectful in our dealings with people of different faiths. Just as other groups have their own platforms for conflict resolution, Muslims in Oyo deserve the same rights without undue criticism or fear.

Let us uphold justice and constitutional rights by supporting peaceful and constructive initiatives like this arbitration sitting. It is a step towards strengthening societal harmony and respecting the diversity that defines us as Nigerians.

And it would bring terrorism. I was born and raised in the north. I witness sharia war in Kaduna in the year 2001 and islamic war in Kano in 2009 after . The genesis of this great war is Sharia court/law that they adopted. More than 100k life was lost because of this. Many of us that are shouting on social media are doing it because of what we have seen when we are growing up and when we are a kid. Zamfara, kano, kaduna, sokoto use to be a peaceful place before the introduction of sharia law/court. I just pity Yorubas because they don't have high population that can withstand crisis
