The Kano State Shura Council has urged residents of the state to maintain the existing peace and harmony in the wake of petitions on blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad (SAW), allegedly committed by an Islamic scholar, Sheikh Lawan Triumph, now before it.
The Shura Council, which comprises renowned Islamic scholars, was set up by the State Government to advise it on Islamic Jurisprudence.
Some Islamic organisations had petitioned the council, alleging that Sheikh Lawan Triumph had blasphemed the Prophet by saying things in disrespect to him.
The Council’s Secretary, Shehu Wada Sagagi, made the call while briefing journalists shortly after the council’s meeting on Friday.
“That’s the resolution today. Our only call is for people to maintain peace and harmony in the state, considering the fact that in the seven Northwestern States, only Kano appears to be peaceful, and we have a duty, all of us, to maintain this peace, at least for the economic and social progress of the state,” he said.

Sagagi said the council would invite the petitioners to elaborate on their allegations, and that Sheikh Triumph, too, would be invited to defend himself.
“Today, the State Government, through the Secretary to the State Government, forwarded all the petitions and counter-petitions against Malam Lawan Triumph.
“After deliberations, the committee resolved that both parties will be invited for clarification and defence. Thereafter, the committee will deliberate strictly in line with Islamic jurisprudence before advising the government accordingly”, the Secretary said.
This, he said, would enable the body to deliberate on the matter and appropriately advise the State Government in line with Islamic jurisprudence.
He added that the accusations remain mere allegations until proven before the council.
He commended the State Government for referring the matter to the council so as to do the needful in line with its mandate.
The State Government had earlier said that it had received petitions and counter-petitions from various Islamic organisations over the comments allegedly made by Sheikh Triumph.
