Sheik Abubakar Iyssa Nababa, an Islamic Scholar appeals to Muslims to maintain a deep respect and devotion to Islam and patience in all acts of worship during the holy month of Ramadan.
He made this call while addressing a congregation on Sunday, at Al-Hiddayyah Central Mosque, Olambe, where he explained the spiritual and moral benefits of Ramadan, stating that one of its fundamental teachings is piety and total reliance on Allah.
According to him “A Muslim’s actions are a true reflection of their level of piety,” adding that act of worship goes beyond ritual observance and requires the complete submission of the heart and mind as well.
Sheik Nababa explained that true reliance on Allah means trusting Him, following His commands, and living according to His guidance not taking sayings literally. He stressed that obeying what is halal and avoiding what is haram shows a believer’s sincerity.
He highlighted the importance of daily prayers, citing the Quran to show that prayer prevents wrongdoing and strengthens moral awareness. Piety, he said, is complete submission to Allah in every part of life.
On Ramadan, the Sheik noted that fasting teaches patience, self control, and generosity. Abstaining from food and drink fosters empathy and encourages charity. He also emphasized learning the Quran and performing voluntary nightly prayers to grow in faith and closeness to Allah.
In conclusion, he said Ramadan is more than just fasting, it is a guide for spiritual, moral, and social growth that benefits all aspects of a believer’s life.
