LESSONS FROM AR-RISALAH OF ABDULLAH B. ABI ZAYD AL-QAIRAWANY
What will it cost us to sponsor our young women to become gynecologists? We cannot tolerate a culture where our women are exposed to male doctors. It is our collective responsibility to produce female gynecologists in large numbers.
In the past, our scholars could not even conceive of a situation where a man would deliver a woman's child; they viewed it strictly as a woman's domain. This is precisely why a woman's sole testimony is accepted in court on such matters—because it was considered exclusively feminine. Today, however, our women are exposed to male doctors during childbirth and when suffering from private illnesses. We have failed as a community to produce enough female doctors and gynecologists, yet we willingly spend billions on trivialities and lavish weddings. We have failed our people.

I won't even dwell on how an unlettered man, living in an isolated 7th-century desert, could have possibly known about deep-ocean currents, the expansion of the universe, the Big Bang, or the intricate stages of human embryology. Nor will I argue about how the text mirrors concepts akin to Einstein’s theory of relativity, or anticipates discoveries like ascorbic acid curing scurvy. These are scientific insights that should have been utterly impossible for a man in Muhammad’s position to possess.
Instead, let us look strictly at a logical, historical challenge: how can anyone claim Chapter 111 of the Qur'an is man-made? This chapter explicitly condemns Abu Lahab—an uncle of Muhammad who fiercely persecuted him, alongside his wife, decreeing that they would both burn in Hell. This was a bold, public prophecy about their ultimate fate.
Abu Lahab lived for over a decade after these verses were revealed. He was a man who dedicated his life to exposing Muhammad as a liar. All he had to do to completely dismantle Islam was to publicly declare, "Alright, I am a Muslim now." Even a feigned conversion would have instantly falsified the prophecy and proven the Qur'an wrong. Yet, he never did. He died years later as a staunch disbeliever, exactly as foretold.
If Muhammad were fabricating this book, why would he take such a massive, unnecessary gamble with his own legacy? How does this make any sense unless the revelation came from a higher, all-knowing source?
You're a foundational disgrace to yourself and profession, quick to jump into any attack train against North to please your paymasters. It is one thing to disagree with the Kano State Mass Wedding programme, as many have done, but reducing it to producing terrorists only spells the level of idiocy you nurture. Let me tell you, Kano State has produced some fine professionals, that if you're to be produced 1 million times to this world, you can't catch up to their achievements. Kano is the home to Aliko, BUA, Prof. hundreds of renowned Professors, and researchers. Recently, this same Kano has produced three researchers that the world has recognised as some of the most cited mathematicians in the world; Dr Aliyu Isa Aliyu, Dr Tukur Abdulkadir Sulaiman, Abdullahi Yusuf, a feat empty heads like you cannot achieve. Kano doesn't have a history of terrorism, even among some of its social vices.
That bitterness you carry would be your greatest undoing.
My prayer today: 4th Dec 2025
Ya Allah!
Whoever is behind this insecurity and bloodbath in Nigeria, whether foreign or citizen, or has any benefit; material or otherwise, or is even happy that people are being killed, may he by Your divine power be exposed and Your anger poured upon them and punished immediately without harm to the innocent. Amin.
Say Amin! 🤲🤲🤲

Very true. The only thing I’ll add is that we must never lose patience when explaining the right path to our people. Sometimes we assume they know, but they truly don't. This is one thing I’ve learned from my father is to never assume someone knows something.
When I was a little kid, I was about to slaughter a chicken at home. My father asked if I knew what to say before doing it. My mom jumped in and said, 'Habã, ya sani mana.' But my father insisted on hearing my answer, and as it turned out, I didn't know. He then said to both of us, 'Never assume anyone knows anything. Just go ahead and tell them.'
But as you said, there’s no need to argue with most of them. Just state your point and move on.
