Sheikh Abdur-Rahman Ahmad, the National Missioner, Ansar-ud-deen Society, has declared the Boko Haram insurgency a collective embarrassment to all faiths in the country.
Ahmad, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria on Saturday, in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, said the group represented no religious interest, adding that their objective had yet to be known.
He said that it was difficult to know in whose interest they were fighting as they had attacked all faiths.
He said: “I state unequivocally that Islam is different from Boko Haram.
“We don’t know who they are, their sponsors and why they are killing people.
“They ought not to be killing Muslim scholars, if truly they are fighting in the interest of Islam.”
Ahmad described the group’s action as anti-Islam and ungodly, noting that Islam is a religion, which appreciates knowledge and research.
He said: “The Muslims were the front-runners in scientific education before the industrial revolution and would not have negated education.
“In this regard, the ADS and other notable Islamic organisations had contributed immensely to the nation’s educational development.”
Speaking on the use of hijab, Ahmad said that the Muslim community had designed one that was moderate for use in schools.
He stressed that everyone was entitled to his or her religious conviction.
