Those who kill while shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ will go to hell – Sultan

 The Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar III, yesterday, said
anyone who takes innocent lives while shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ is going to
hell and would pay for such evil.

 

The Sultan added that much of the violence often described
as religious is being misunderstood, deepening suspicion and mistrust.

 

He said these at the first triannual meeting of the Nigeria
Inter-Religious Council, NIREC, in Abuja, where the Sultan, who co-chairs the
council, spoke alongside President of Christian Association of Nigeria, Daniel
Okoh, and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume.

 

According to him, “Let us get the narrative right. It is not
about religion. Let us stop bringing religion into it.

 

“Let us call them what they are – criminals. Not Muslim
criminals, not Muslim terrorists, not Muslim bandits. Even if someone claims to
be Muslim, what they do goes against Islam.”

 

Linking the problem to ignorance, he warned against false
claims of religious authority, adding that “the fact that you understand Arabic
does not make you a Sheikh. Arabic is just a language. So literacy is very
important.

 

“Somebody can go to the market, blows his or herself up,
kill people and shout ‘Allahu Akbar’. Yes, God is great, but you are going to
hell. They will suffer for taking innocent lives.”
