The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji
Mohammad Sa’ad Abubakar III, has disclosed that those who shout, “Allah” while
killing people will end up in hell.
Delivering a lecture during the
University of Nigeria, Nsukka, 57th Founder’s Day Dignity Award Lecture
entitled, “Restoring the Dignity of Man,” on Friday, Abubakar also described
such people as terrorists.
The monarch said anybody who
killed in the name of Islam was not a true Muslim because the religion frowns
at such act.
He said, “We cannot restore the
dignity of man by killing innocent people.
“The herdsmen killing people are
criminals and not Fulani herdsmen.
“Anybody who kills people while
shouting Allah, is a terrorist and not a true Muslim and will go to hell.
“Allah hates people who kill and
says they will go to hell.”
Abubakar also said education
remains a veritable tool for human development as it promotes unity, peace and
economy.
He said, “A country that takes
education serious tends to develop healthier and happier.
“Education is light and means to
restore dignity of man while ignorance is darkness.
“Education will continue to be a
veritable tool for human and societal development.”
