Offering Jumu'ah prayer hurriedly on a public road, as if you are offering an urgent 2k is not the way of Islam.

As recorded in Sahih al-Bukhari (636) and Sahih Muslim (602), the Prophet (pbuh) said:

'When you hear the Iqamah, proceed to the prayer with tranquility and dignity, and do not rush. Whatever part of the prayer you catch, pray it; and whatever you miss, complete it afterwards.'

“He who took a bath and then came for Jumu'a prayer and then prayed what was fixed for him, then kept silence till the Imam finished the sermon, and then prayed along with him, his sins between that time and the next Friday would be forgiven, and even of three days more.”
— Sahih Muslim 857a.

On Fridays, plan ahead: manage your time, choose a proper mosque, and join the congregation. Listen attentively to the sermon, observe your dhikr, and depart peacefully.

Praying on public roads on Fridays must end in 2026.

The road blockages around Dutse Market in Abuja is worst during Jum'at prayers.

We know that whatever is tolerated will continue, and it is the government's failure that fosters this level of lawlessness and disorder. Blocking roads on Fridays and the noise pollution from churches on Sundays are both forms of hypocrisy that our nation has suffered from for too long. Hypocritical worship, religious manipulation, and pretentious righteousness have directly contributed to where we are today.

Back in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, when we were growing up, people practiced their faith with order and peace. There were no road blockages—not even for a minute—and there was no loud or disruptive shouting from churches. Even when services lasted for hours, there was order, mutual respect, and peace among people without religious division.

All of this modern nonsense must come to an end in 2026. Central mosques are big and they are built specifically for Friday prayers. People should plan their time properly and go inside the mosque rather than staging rushed and urgent prayers on the roadside. Humans can be foolish, but God is not.

A DIRECT OPEN LETTER TO NIGERIAN POLITICAL FAMILIES: Time To Go Home And Rest.

To the families of our political elders—the Tinubus, Atikus, Obis, Wikes, and every governor, senator, and minister well past retirement age—this is a straightforward call to common sense.
To the families whose father, mother, uncle or relative has been in government for decades—please, sit down and have a serious family meeting with them.

Tell them gently: Daddy, Mummy, Uncle, enough is enough. Government office is not a retirement home, and politics is not a lifetime membership club.

There comes a point where public service stops being about national duty and becomes an unnecessary strain on health and human endurance

Look at Aliko Dangote, a man above 70, still looking calm and composed. He manages vast enterprises while remaining fresh, calm, and grounded because he knows when to pace himself.. Why? He is busy with his own work. He is not trying to occupy every public office available. He is not waking up every morning to fight for another political position.

But some of our politicians have turned public office into “until death do us part.” President, Vice President, Governor, Senator, Minister, former this, former that—every election, the same familiar faces are coming back with another agbada and another slogan. 😂

And then the body starts sending warning letters: hospital, medical trip, check-up, treatment abroad. Yet nobody in the family is asking: “Daddy, perhaps it is time to rest?”

My dear political families, please love your elders enough to tell them the truth.

You have children and grandchildren. You have made money. You have built houses. You have businesses. You have travelled the world. Must government office also be inherited as a permanent family occupation?

And to the younger generation: supporting your parents does not mean supporting every ambition they have forever. Sometimes the greatest respect you can give an elderly parent is to say:

“Daddy, you have served enough. Come home. Rest. Advise us. Let younger Nigerians also have a chance.”

Nigeria needs experienced elders, yes—but experience does not always require occupying an office.

There is dignity in knowing when to step aside.

Because honestly, some of these political wardrobes are doing overtime. The agbada is still packaging the man,, but underneath it, the body is saying, “Oga, please retire!”

Let our leaders age with dignity. Let them become advisers, mentors and statesmen rather than permanently occupying seats that younger Nigerians are waiting to sit on.

Government should be service, not a lifetime career plan. Public office was never meant to be a senior citizens' country club or a retirement home. Step aside, let younger generations carry the administrative burden, and go home to enjoy a peaceful, well-earned rest.

And families should sometimes be brave enough to tell their loved ones the truth.

This plea goes out to the children and spouses as well. Instead of enabling this endless cycle of political tenure, family members ought to step in and advise their parents to enjoy their golden years in peace. A good child looks out for their parent’s well-being and tells them when it is time to step back, put their feet up, and enjoy the fruits of their life’s work.

Live in this life like a traveller. Life is a journey, not a destination.

Live and let others live. Some people love music, others movies, novels, or parties. You may prefer staying indoors, but enjoy gossip. You may not drink or smoke, but struggle with adultery or another sin.

The point is, nobody is perfect. Except those who are conscious of their Lord, and strive to do good, are the most successful.

Don't hate others because you don't commit their sins. Hate the sin, but not the sinner. We are all travellers, learning and striving to return to our Lord.

Realization!

The song Kumbaya My Lord is a Gullah song, an African American language. It means “Come by here, my Lord” or “Come, my Lord.”

I have seen Muslims criticize the song, perhaps because the singer raises his hands in prayer. They assume he is calling another deity without first understanding the language or meaning.

Islam forbids ignorance. Learning the Qur’an and Arabic is valuable, but Arabic is only one of the many languages and fields of knowledge Allah has made available to humanity.

Allah says:

“O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another.” — Qur’an 49:13

Through immigration, emigration, marriage, nationality, and other connections, we encounter different cultures and languages.

Do not let ignorance make you intolerant. Learn languages, learn about other people's foods, cultures, and ways of life. Kumbaya, like Arabic, French, English, and every other language, is a language spoken by some of your fellow human beings.

Knowledge broadens the mind; ignorance narrows it.

Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

Peace begins with the heart. Let us choose kindness over anger, forgiveness over hatred, and unity over division.

May Allah grant us peace in our homes, our communities, and our nation. Ameen.

Leadership is a Sacred Trust, Not a Mere Title

​While we recognize that ultimate power belongs to Allah and that He grants authority to whom He wills (Surah Ali 'Imran, 3:26), Islam does not teach us to blindly elect leaders without evaluating their competence and character. Leadership in Islam is viewed as an Amanah (a sacred trust).

​Allah explicitly commands us regarding governance and trust:

​"Verily, Allah commands you to render back trusts to those to whom they are due, and when you judge between people, judge with justice." — (Surah An-Nisa, 4:58)

Before entrusting anyone with leadership
Islam charges us to seek essential, proven qualities. In the story of Prophet Moses (peace be upon him), the Qur'an highlights the gold standard for selecting someone for authority:

"Indeed, the best one you can hire is the strong and trustworthy." — (Surah Al-Qasas, 28:26).

- A true leader must possess:

Competence & Strategic Vision (Al-Qawiyy):
The wisdom, foresight, and capability to think deeply, solve modern problems, and elevate a nation to global standards.

- Integrity & Sincerity (Al-Amin): Unwavering honesty, truthfulness, and bravery to make tough decisions for the public good.

- Compassion & Universal Care: A heart that bleeds for the people. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "The best of your leaders are those whom you love and who love you, who pray for you and you pray for them." — (Sahih Muslim).

Allah chooses whom He allows to occupy positions of authority, but He has also given us the responsibility to make wise choices.

Before supporting a leader, we should look beyond religion, tribe, political party, or empty promises. We should examine character, sincerity, truthfulness, courage, compassion, wisdom, and genuine concern for the people.

A good governance is is defined by justice, empathy, and competence. A sincere and capable leader who prioritizes the welfare of all citizens, regardless of their tribe or faith, embodies the true essence of Islamic principles on justice.

A good Muslim should not support a dishonest person simply because he shares the same faith. Likewise, we should not reject a person with good leadership qualities simply because he belongs to another faith.

Allah says:

“Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.”
— Qur’an 49:13

We may not know what is in another person's heart, but we can examine their conduct, their record, their honesty, and their commitment to justice.

It is time for individuals, leaders, and the entire nation to wake up, think deeply, and move forward. Let us leave old ways behind and step confidently into a prosperous, technologically advanced, and forward-thinking future.

Let us pray for leaders who fear Allah, think deeply, speak the truth, have the courage to do what is right, and genuinely care about the welfare of others.

And let us remember that praying for a better leader does not remove our responsibility to make wise choices.

May Allah guide Nigeria to leaders who will treat leadership as a trust, not an opportunity for personal gain. Ameen.

A Call to Muslims: Moving Beyond Stagnation to Build a New Nigeria

There is a well-known narration regarding the end of times where the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) described a period where money loses its purchasing power and value:

"A time will come upon the people when a person will walk around with his gold/money, but he will not find anyone to accept it from him [or it will buy almost nothing of value]." — (Ref: Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim)

We see a reflection of this warning in our reality today. In Nigeria and around the world, hyperinflation has eroded the value of hard work. Today, our highest paper denomination—1,000 Naira—cannot buy a decent plate of food, nor can it purchase basic meat or fish. A 2,000 Naira can no longer prepare a simple pot of soup with fish or meat for a family. Millions are struggling simply to survive.

However, accepting hardship does not mean accepting stagnation.

While Islam teaches us Tawakkul (relying on Allah’s decree), it never teaches us to remain passive or helpless. Resigning ourselves to suffering under the guise of "it is God's will" without taking action is a misuse of faith. Allah explicitly reminds us in the Qur'an:
"Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves." — (Surah Ar-Ra'd, 13:11)

Islam places high value on deep thinking (Tafakkur), wisdom, and continuous growth. We are instructed to use our intellect to solve problems, adapt to modern times, and build a better future.

Faith is not an excuse for stagnation.

When an individual, a group, or a nation becomes stuck in a difficult situation, the right response is to seek wisdom, apply knowledge, embrace new ideas, and find solutions.

Nigeria cannot continue doing things the same old way and expect a different result. We must leave outdated thinking behind and move forward with technology, innovation, and modern solutions.

We need leaders who understand the present world, not leaders who keep dragging us backward with outdated ideologies.

Let us stop confusing patience with stagnation. Let us stop accepting avoidable suffering as our permanent destiny.

To break free from poverty and economic hardship, we must abandon outdated mindsets. Whether as individuals, communities, or a nation, we cannot keep doing the same things and expect a different result:

Allah has given us the ability to change our condition. We must use it wisely.
Nigeria is redeemable. We can move from where we are to where we ought to be.
Let us move forward. Let us embrace technology. Let us build a New Nigeria.
