-Sultan of Sokoto says street begging is not Islamic
-Almajiri method of begging should be discouraged in Islam
-Islam encourages work
If there is one thing that is anti
Islamic, it is the Almajiri method of begging, which should be discouraged by
all Muslims. This is coming from Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III. He said the Islamic
religion is against slothfulness and joblessness but encourages work, entrepreneurship
and giving of scholarship to indigent student.
Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III, the Sultan of Sokoto wants all Muslim to speak against street begging which is now becoming a norm in Islam. He said this on Sunday in a preparatory Ramadan gathering of Jema’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) which he is also the President- General. The Sultan said road begging has no origin in Islam and wants all Muslim to engage themselves in meaningful work rather than becoming nuisance in the street.
