The Kano State government has banned an Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abduljabar Nasir Kabara, from preaching in the state for alleged incitement.
However, some Muslim faithful have criticized the state government’s decision.
Kabara, whose mode of Islamic teachings is considered incendiary by the Kano State government, has come under scrutiny because of his interpretation of some prophetic sayings adjudged as controversial.
He is being accused of questioning the authenticity of those prophetic sayings and even denouncing some companions of the Prophet Muhammad.
Malam Muhammad Garba, the state Commissioner for Information while briefing Journalists said the decision to ban Kabara from preaching in the state was taken by the State Executive Council (SEC) during its meeting at Africa House, Kano.
“Kano State government has debarred an Islamic cleric, Sheikh Abduljabar Nasir Kabara, from preaching in the state for his mode of teachings is considered too incendiary”, he said.
