MOB JUSTICE CLAIMS THE LIFE OF ISLAMIC TEACHER IN JOS
Malama Ummulkhairi, a respected Islamic teacher and mother of more than five children, left her home in Maraban Jos to attend a religious lecture by respected Islamic scholars, including Malam Umar Wali. The event was scheduled to take place at Madrasatul Tashiyhul Iman, a school associated with Malama Mardiyya. After becoming separated from her companions and asking for directions to the venue, Ummulkhairi approached some children and asked for directions. Moments later, a group of women allegedly accused her of attempting to kidnap children.
She was taken to a police station, where family representatives and community leaders testified that she was a well-known teacher and that there was no evidence against her. Despite this, an angry mob gathered outside. Appeals for calm and due process were ignored.
In broad daylight, near the police station, she was brutally killed and burned alive. A motorcycle belonging to one of the scholars pleading for her safety was also set ablaze.
Today, her children are without their mother. Her husband left home with a healthy wife and returned only to witness the aftermath of unimaginable violence.
This tragedy raises painful questions: How many innocent people must die before we reject mob justice? When accusations become death sentences and evidence no longer matters, nobody is safe.
Jungle justice does not fight crime, it only destroys innocent lives, weakens the rule of law and fuels insecurity. If we continue down this path, we will not defeat crime; we will only create a society ruled by fear, suspicion, and violence.
May Almighty Allah forgive Malama Ummulkhairi, accept her among the righteous and grant her family the strength to bear this devastating loss.
This is Danbaba Primary School in Bargaja Riyawa community, Kandawa Ward, Batsari LGA of Katsina State now stands as a heartbreaking symbol of the devastation caused by years of banditry across Northern Nigeria.
Residents say armed bandits attacked the area and completely vandalized the school, stripping away its roofing sheets, doors and metal fittings in not less than one year now. What was once a place of learning and hope for children has been abandoned and swallowed by thick vegetation.
Beyond the destruction of buildings, banditry has emptied villages, displaced thousands of families, disrupted farming and education and left entire communities living in fear. Across many parts of the North, schools have been shut down, livelihoods destroyed and a generation of children forced to grow up amid insecurity and uncertainty.
How many more schools must become forests, how many more villages must be deserted, and how many more dreams must be buried before lasting peace returns?
JUST IN THIS MORNING
Residents of Gummi in Zamfara State are protesting recent bandit attacks causing insecurity in the area and have blocked the highway.
Dear Rarara and co,
What does Islam say about people who deliberately hide the failures and wrongdoing of a government and instead defend it at all costs?
Quran said:
“O you who believe! Stand firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even if it be against yourselves, your parents, or your relatives.”
- An-Nisa
“And do not conceal testimony, for whoever conceals it, his heart is indeed sinful.”
- Al-Baqarah
“And do not mix the truth with falsehood or conceal the truth while you know it.”
- Al-Baqarah
Hadith said:
“The best jihad is a word of truth before a tyrannical ruler.”
- Sunan al-Tirmidhi, Hadith 2174
The moment religion becomes your defense for mediocrity, you have already done a disservice to the religion.
IT IS NOT FAIR WHAT YOU ARE DOING TO ISLAM!
Do you know who are the biggest Illiterates in Arewa?. They are the ones who go to school and still come back here to support Rarara, a bunch of educated illiterates.
