Yeah, he's a Muslim but also a Nigerian whose rights is protected by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. A Constitution that invalidates other laws; making them null and void in case of contradiction; which of course would happen when he approaches a higher court. (Except he's deeply buried in ignorance).

I do not see any difference between Sharia laws and other customary or tribal laws.

Still wondering why we still have such archaic laws in this modern world with sane humans.

Yeyenairaland:


I see

Despites your westernization

You still believe that blood shed is making your so called Allah happy

You engage in child marriages

You see women as nothing but properties that you acquire

I am not supposed to banter with a primarily trained terrorist

Western education is what a dingbat like you called elrufai have and still promote killing and tribal wars.




Shame on Islam


VIOLENT ANIMALS!

Have you no sense? Don't you realise that these apply to a particular region? Am a muslim but am nt an hausa. What i was taught differs from what they do. But stupid dafts like you who doesn't know how to reason logically term ISLAM A violent religion. What is the essence of education if u act like an animal. You're so daft.

WiseAnt:
religion has corrupted man's heart
how would u put to death ur fellow man, wait who send u? the same God that says kill for blasphemy still says u should love ur neighbour.. in ur heart u have blasphemy so many times.. Islam Is a confused religion

Now look at yourself, see the insults you are hurling at me even when you barely know me, all just because i'm a muslim.
Now, who is the terrorist between us nw, who is the fool and who is the slave to religion and who is wallowing in ignorance.
i won't trade insults with you but i'll tell you this. If you don't believe in another person's ways, FINE no wahala, but don't chastise and badmouth what other people believe just because you don't believe such.
Have sense, Be civil, Do your own and leave others to theirs.

Yeyenairaland:


I see

You're modern

That's why you are trained to be a terrorist
Be indulging in child marriages
Marrying as many wife's as possible, even if you can't cater for them
Promoting almajiri and constituting nuisance all over the nation
You long to have blood shed and believe your so called Allah is happy about it

Remain a religious slave and keep wallowing in your ignorance.

FOOLS!

If Mohammed were prophet why fight for him. Those bastard north and mad Mohammed should get lost.

Coder2Client:

I always don't like to see muslims saying @bold.

The same Jesus that you said you believe but vehemently hate His followers to the point of death, maim, taking Christian women as slave as it is enshrined in Quran and Hadith. The same Jesus' followers you call kafir.

I Don't hate christians. I got christians friends my aunt is a christian so are my cousins. The northerners be it christian or muslim are so daft. They are zombies.

FOLLOWER OF A SATANIC, BEWITCHED IDOL WORSHIPPER CALLED MOHAMMAD!

Repent so that your miserable soul and that of your idol-worshipping Mohammad can be saved otherwise, you will rot together, wrapped in an oil of Pig andDog, as you all roast in hell.

It is a good thing that you said it is none of your business. This is much better than a lot of non-Muslims that are still attacking Islam despite what you stated that this law applies only to Muslims. Then they should just keep quiet.

However, in the Qur'an there is no clear cut law that punishes anyone for blasphemy.I am a big fan of implementing laws to regulate society. Islam allows for authority to make laws and enforce them whether the laws are exclusively stated in the Qur'an or not. No one should deny this. So I believe that Kano state blasphemy law is a "public moral law". But I think it should not apply to Muslims only since Nigeria constitution recognizes it. It should apply to everyone in the country regardless of status.

Again, this is public moral law and not exclusively shariatic, which means it is Kano state pena code. Implication of this is that it will affect so many non-Muslims who poised to abuse religious figures which is very common amongst Christians and atheists. They usually lack manners religiously and parental discipline. This law needs to be extended to everyone. There is nothing wrong with Kano adopting it's own laws. Even in the US, States have different laws including death penalty. New York for instance, it is illegal and you may be jailed for drinking and holding beer or alcohol in public. This is example of public moral law.

Since last uproar around the world when some guys blasphemed prophet of Islam, some Muslim leaders are pressuring United Nations to pass a law forbidden anyone from abusing religious figures. I am absolutely in support of this. Why should some people so rude and only want to deliberately abuse?. This is like creating civil unrest. In order for this not to repeat itself is the reason there must be legal consequences. This is not about "fighting for God" as some people claimed.

If this law sounds ridiculous to them, let us review Germany legal system. It is against the law in Germany to deny Holocaust. Denying Holocaust attracts minimum of 5 yrs in jail. Question is, should people not have the right to believe or not to believe Holocaust existed?. Is this not violation if freedom of speech?. Yes, it is. So why is this not ridiculous to those who claim blasphemy law is "barbaric"?. Why this double standards?.

Also if Kano blasphemy law extends to non-Muslims, implication is that, a manifesto that was published by CAN- Christian Association Of Nigeria in 1994, which blasphemed prophet and Islam and Muslims and even called for death of Muslim leaders around the world would be considered hate speech, defamation and blasphemy under the law.

I will have to at this point admit that, indeed, Muslims are true followers of prophets. They adopted blasphemy law which is exclusively mentioned in the Christian Bible which Christians have shamelessly abandoned.

All old testament laws are pretty active by virtue of Jesus own statements in the New Testament. I appeal to Kano State to be lenient in this case and simply allow the guy to take basic Islamic courses in rehab and let him go. We can not be arguing and condemning the law. This is not how to help the guy. We should help the guy by pleading for leniency.

Thanks for reading

Death Sentence For Blasphemy At Kano: A Perspective by O. G. Chukkol

I have been following arguments on social media for the past two days about the death sentence passed on one Yahaya Aminu Sheriff for blasphemy (insulting prophet Mohammed PBH) at Kano.

Let me make few observations here:

1. There is actually a Shariah Penal Code law in Kano state

2. The said Shariah Penal Code makes provision for offences and punishments recognized in Islam

3. The Shariah Penal Code Law prohibits blasphemy and a violator risks death sentence. See section section 382 thereof.

4. The Shariah Penal Code Law of Kano applies to Muslims only

5. The Shariah Penal Code Law of Kano does not apply to non Muslims. So a Christian or any other non Muslim cannot be prosecuted under the law except if he consents to it

6. Sheriff was tried and convicted under the Shariah Penal Code Law because he was a Muslim.

7. Sheriff has the right to appeal to a higher court for his conviction to be reviewed or set aside if the trial court was wrong.

8. Governor of Kano State has the final say on Sheriff's conviction. He can pardon Sheriff and allow him go free or change the punishment or sign death warrant for Sheriff to be executed/killed as ordered by court

9. A non Muslim who insults prophet Mohammed or commits any other form of blasphemy can at best be tried under the general Penal Code law for defamation or breach of public peace or any other related offence depending on exactly what the person says

In view of the foregoing, I will completely refrain from commenting on the appropriateness of death sentence for blasphemy because it is an Islamic injunction entrenched in a written law. Besides, I may not even be objective about it because I am not a Muslim, but a Christian. I will only end up pouring my sentiment in the guise of criticism. To me, is not even logical to use my religion to condemn another religion.

I submit further, for the purpose of emphasis, that the offence of blasphemy applies to Muslims only and they are in support of it. They are comfortable with it because their religion provides for it. I cannot take panadol for somebody's headache

Had it been the offence applies to non Muslims also, I would have immediately condemned it for being unconstitutional.

It should be noted that the Shariah Penal Code was enacted pursuant to section 38 of the constitution which provides for right to freedom of religion and sections 4 and 6 of the constitution which gives states power to make laws and also establish courts for themselves and also section 36(12) which provides that person can be convicted for an offence only if the said offence is defined in a written law with sanctions attached.

That is to say, the Supreme Law of the land has given them backing. They can practice their religion provided that a non Muslim shall not be affected

Let me drop my pen here. Everything I put down here is strictly my opinion and I may be wrong.

I dont argue with stupid people who are foolish enough to follow a bewitched, satanic Mohammad hwo says they shoudl behead people over every little disagreement.
Laws are made for people, to reflect THE TIMES.

In Nigeria, TWIN Babies used to be killed but after sometime, that policy was repealled, does that mean they are foolish or they are smart?
Jesus willing died for us that we might be saved. HE could have refused or fought back but HE said "Father, Let thy will be done", as a demonstration of his love for Christians.

Compare that to your own Allah who is always asking you to BEHEAD OTHERS and DRINK THEIR BLOOD.
You Jihadist Islamist need to REPENT and be SAVED because you will all rot in hellfire, you and your Satanic, idol-worshiping Mohammad and his blood-sucking Allah.

Leah Sharibu was kidnapped by the same Evil, satanic, folowers of that idol-worshipper, child-peodophile and kidnapper called prophet mohammad, that is what he teaches you Muslims: KIDNAP, RAPE and KILL
Shame on Islam, Shaaammmmeee

I'm bound to sound foolish to deadbrains and empty headed people like you. Twins were killed in some sections of a tribe and not most tribes let alone the whole of Nigeria. Yes it has stopped but our traditionalists never claimed their gods were loving or the same yesterday, today and forever.

Can we say the same thing about your "loving " god that killed first sons, killed 42 children because of mockey, saved a family and killed off the rest etc.

Ohh he now a changed god, he has turned over a new leaf. Never knew your blood thirsty god is now man that changes his mind. Lol

What if he decides not to be a muslim now, will the sentencing still hold?

Karmatyra:
Exactly what I said o. let Muslims practice what ever they like so far as it doesn't affect anyone else who isn't a Muslim,I mean they can hang each other on a stake from the anus through to the mouth,e no concern anybody. I wonder why Christians were crying more than the berieved.
Religion is like a confraternity,anybody that chooses to join should adhere to both the good and bad that comes with it. besides you should know the rules already.

Grow sense abeg, with your hypocritical statement.
Problem is that your blood-sucking demons led by the idol-worshipper called Mohammed, dont restrict themselves to killing Muslims alone, infact, their satanic leader Mohammed pointedly asked them to be killing Non Muslims, Christians in particular.

Is Leah Sharibu a Muslim when the bastard kidnapped and kept raping her?
If they have restricted their madness and blood-sucking to themselves ONLY, who will care?

These Muslims led by an idol worshiper called Mohammad are worse than the worst Demon anyone can think of!

When you practice law you don't just give up ma'am.
Let me give you examples of technicalities to use

1. Deny jurisdiction and move to the high court
2. Recant Islam and deny shariah court powers

Not in matters of religion as is this case.

Mo3891:
Respect other people's law simple as ABC.. this is the principle of a through federalism

So you also have to respect laws that prescribe death for twins.

What of the law that prescribe the death penalty for any woman that defies the Oro festival curfew that is common in Yoruba towns? Should you not respect that too.

Yankee101:
When you practice law you don't just give up ma'am.

2. Recant Islam and deny shariah court powers

1. Shariah Court is not subject to norminal court. Muslims will never let it be.
2. Recanting Islam attracts the death penalty, either carried out by the Shariah Court or by religious fanatics privately. Stories abound of Muslims turned Christians who had to run for their dear lives because their own family wanted them dead.

Say something else.

These are all rants and nothing articulate to bring out of all you have typed.

gaius01:


Too late for me or you. If God should allow us live long. Do you know you are vulnerable to die before me cause with this Sharia law of a thing you will be sentence even it's not death but you will be judge accordingly while I won't be. Islam has no peace at all, how can you say Islam is peaceful when killing is thier order of the day? How can you say Islam is peaceful when your so called brother sin and they can't temper jutice with mercy? How can you humiliate of frustrate your blood brother simply because he changed his religion or cause his mind set about your religion? How can Islam preach that killing an unbelievable is justification of faith and loyalty to Allah!? Islam is nothing to write home about, and if you are talking about Muslim minding thier business of trend that concern Christian then you lie. MURIC is an example of parrots Muslim? Prof Ishaq who spit rubbish despite been a Prof. Islam is just a religion that suffers humanity. 85% of the poorest folks in Nigeria are Muslim. What's almagiri, see there's absolutely nothing that you can say, do, show that will make me switch to Islam even if am an atheist. Well thank God for Jesus my life is perfect. Nobody will kill or judge me unless God him self . man can't do God's job not at all thinking of judging for God the Almighty.

You are right, but truth be told, sharia law should not be partially applied. What does the same sharia says as regards bribery and corruption? It's very insulting to the existence of humanity if such laws are applicable to the poor, less privileged or non influencial individuals but it exempt those in power and well connected individuals who abused the said laws more frequently.

Do Muslim citizen have the right to renounce the religion?

Mo3891:


Legislative law and customs are far so different

Sharia law was legislated by northern assembly and passed to law by northern Governors with full support of Northern citizen ... Did Oro and twins get legislative backing

.

Does it conform with the constitution of the federal Republic? The fact that a law was legislated by northern assembly and passed to law by northern Governors with full support of Northern citizen does not make it constitutional. The environmental law was legislated by Lagos assembly and passed to law by Fashola with full support of Lagos citizens, the courts still declared the law unconstitutional.

Even the national assembly can pass a law with the full support of the president and the citizens of Nigeria, but the Supreme Court can still declare such laws unconstitutional.

For example, the 'doctrine of necessity' that was passed by the national assembly that made Jonathan acting president was unconstitutional, and would have been rendered null and void if the matter was taken to court.

Always killing and killing, if not kidnapping or raping, dem swear fror una so?
