An Islamic scholar, Khadi Abdulmumini Abubakar from Taraba State, has cautioned grain sellers against deceptive practices aimed at reducing the quantity of their products to boost their profits.
During an interview in Jalingo, he emphasised that Allah has stipulated punishment for such individuals, beseeching business persons to avoid such acts and the consequent retribution on the Day of Judgement.
In his Sallah message, Khadi Abubakar urged the global Muslim community to reflect on the lessons learned during Ramadan and uphold the fear of Allah in their dealings.
He called on Muslims to engage in good deeds for the sake of Allah, repent, and steer clear of sin.
He also urged Muslims to desist from causing harm to their leaders and instead seek Allah’s guidance through prayers.
Khadi linked the current hardship being experienced in Nigeria to the evil deeds of the people, calling on Nigerians to return to Allah, refrain from sin, and seek His mercy and forgiveness.
He reiterated that Allah does not discriminate against any group based on religion or ethnicity, and leaders are prohibited from such action.
Khadi Abdulmumini Abubakar emphasised Allah’s sovereignty and the temporary nature of power bestowed upon leaders.
He impressed everyone with the accountability for their deeds in the hereafter.
Finally, he appealed to well-to-do Nigerians to assist the less privileged in society to reduce the current hardship.
