Angry Muslims youths in Kano on Thursday evening decapitated a woman trader over allegations that she blasphemed Prophet Muhammad.
The victim, who was said to be of Igbo extraction was accused of blasphemy during a religious argument at Wambai market.
The woman, who sells plastics at the local market was in the company of her husband when she was murdered.
Contacted, the Public Relations Officer of the Kano Police Command, DSP Musa Magaji, confirmed the incident.
He said ” At about 4 30 pm, there was a disagreement between the murdered woman and some traders bordering on religion.
”The woman was said to have blasphemed Prophet Mohammed, which did not go down well with the mob.
He said, the woman whose named he didn’t disclose, was in the company of her husband when the incident happened but the timely intervention of the police saved the husband, who was immediately whisked for safety.
WORSTER? Rest in peace English. Lol. Dude leave this Biafra nonsense and go back to school or just write in Igbo.
BLASPHEMING THE PROPHET OF ISLAM: THE LEGAL & ETHICAL VIEWPOINTS Esteemed readers, having established the position of Islam on insulting any Prophet of Allāh, whether he is Muhammad or Jesus or Moses, it is important to state here categorically that the punishment for such a criminal act is # DEATH . Yes, you heard me right. What this means is that if Abdullahi, a Muslim insults Jesus, or Emmanuel, a Christian insults Muhammad, both of them have committed treason against the Islamic State and they both face Death penalty. Ibn Taimiyyah wrote: ﻭﻗﺎﻝ ﺷﻴﺦ ﺍﻹﺳﻼﻡ ﺍﺑﻦ ﺗﻴﻤﻴﺔ ﺭﺣﻤﻪ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ “: ﻣِﻦ ﺧﺼﺎﺋﺺ ﺍﻷﻧﺒﻴﺎﺀ ﺃﻥَّ ﻣَﻦ ﺳﺐَّ ﻧﺒﻴًّﺎ ﻣِﻦ ﺍﻷﻧﺒﻴﺎﺀ ﻗﺘﻞ ﺑﺎﺗﻔﺎﻕ ﺍﻷﺋﻤﺔ ﻭﻛﺎﻥ ﻣﺮﺗﺪﺍً ، ﻛﻤﺎ ﺃﻥَّ ﻣَﻦ ﻛﻔﺮ ﺑﻪ ﻭﺑﻤﺎ ﺟﺎﺀ ﺑﻪ ﻛﺎﻥ ﻣﺮﺗﺪﺍً ، ﻓﺈﻥ ﺍﻹﻳﻤﺎﻥ ﻻ ﻳﺘﻢ ﺇﻻ ﺑﺎﻹﻳﻤﺎﻥ ﺑﺎﻟﻠﻪ ﻭﻣﻼﺋﻜﺘﻪ ﻭﻛﺘﺒﻪ ﻭﺭﺳﻠﻪ ” ( ﺍﻟﺼﻔﺪﻳﺔ 1/262 ) ” Part of the special privileges enjoyed by the he Prophets is that whoever insults any Prophet will be executed by consensus and has automatically become an infidel. Similarly, the one who disbelieves in a Prophet or in his message is an infidel since faith is not complete without believing in Allah, His Angels, Books and Messengers.” Now, to the Kano incident…. It is highly unfortunate that overzealous and irate Muslim youth, most of whom lack basic knowledge of Islam always drag the religion into their senseless brutality and barbarism by distorting the texts of the Shari’ah and usurping the powers of the judiciary. In Islam, there are certain crimes that carry prescribed punishments called # huduud while others are subject to # ta ‘zeer (discretion of the judge). However, no single individual is vested with the power to try, indict and sentence a suspect except the # Qaadi (judge). Whosoever usurps that power and inflicts punishment on an alleged criminal with or without confession or proofs is a criminal and must face the full wrath of the law. For instance, if a man was caught sleeping with another man’s wife, the Islamic Law stipulates that the plaintiff gets 4 witnesses to testify against the accused. (Q. 24:4 & 13). Each of this witnesses must possess the qualities of # sanity , # Integrity and # religiosity , and must not have any track record of lying or criminality. In addition, there must be coherence in the reports of the witnesses. They must all testify to seeing the accused # banging the lady in question. In a situation where one of them confessed to only seeing them naked and sitting near each other, no conviction can be made yet. This is how difficult it is to convict an accuse under the Shari’ah! In fact, if the plaintiff fails to produce 4 witnesses to prove his allegation, he will be lashed 80 times!! (Q. 24:4). Therefore, even though blasphemy is a heinous crime that is punishable by death, the accused has a right to be heard at a court of competent jurisdiction and defend herself within the provisions of the law. It is likely that she doesn’t even know the gravity of the crime; or she was misunderstood; or she didn’t even say anything but was just framed up by the mob. It may also be that she merely retaliated against an insult to her religion hurled at her by one of the mob. These are one million and one excuse that may have proved her innocence at a court of law. Let me equally add that if she denies uttering such statement in front of the judge and the plaintiff cannot prove that she said so, not only will she walk away free of charge, she is equally liable to damages as determined by the judge. Let me repeat here for the sake of emphasis, the mob attack on Bridget is tantamount to jungle justice which is commonplace in Nigeria. Suspected thieves and robbers are being burnt alive almost everyday in Nigeria. Unfortunately, since this involves Islam, this news is likely to make headline for some time. Lastly, I want to advise non Muslims to always exercise courtesy & decorum while addressing issues of faith in order to avert ugly situations like this. We should learn to understand each other’s religion and know where to apply the brakes on sensitive and volatile issues. What moral justification does any Christian have to insult our beloved Prophet? What does he/she wants to gain? Even without the death sentence, is it ethical to just want to cause trouble? What did Charlie Hebdoe gain from insulting Muhammad? Unfortunately, the # Islamophobic world disregards the action that triggers the reaction and would rather blame the latter. What an injustice! I have read some frivolous verdicts by people who have no iota of knowledge about Islamic Law and Jurisprudence claiming that death sentence for blasphemy is a creation of some extremist scholars and that the Qur’ān and Sunnah are both silent on it…… What a shame! I advise that you stop relying on # GoogleFatwahs and learn about Islam properly. May Allah guide us aright.
Seriously? is it me or the picture in question is altered?…hmmm…PEOPLE, WISE UP. ..the media only wants to make money from your Internet bundles…nonsense
Obasa Jide good comment, they should persecute that murderer without being biased…this is about a questionable character now..

Rajab Rajab good that’s the reply they should have given to the lady not killing her… Its a freedom of speech but don’t forget that God will truly punish you for blasphemy, no Christian will kill you bcos we are Christlike… Jesus actually came to save sinners …

Flora Onoks Ify thank you so much..
War just began in Nigeria
I spent nearly twenty years in the northern part, one thing I can say about this guys is their religion has brain washed most of them.
Sincerely Nigeria is sitting on hot coal, the end to this matter is closer than ever.
One Nigeria is a scam.
I that why they beheaded her???
Why not come to Igbo land and try this nonsense idiots
I’ve some dead terrorists on Facebook. Killing innocent people in the name of religion will forever bring unending cries to ur families
This is mad religion in the name of Alla what stupidness is this?
Your father…. Infidel…
All the proofs you need is in that your killers manual named Koran…
islamic religion itself is a blasphemy . stupid people who worship a mere mortal called muhammed or whatever … useless fools
Anything evil is Muslim. A religion that supports Terrorists and pedophiles. Muslim is rather a cult and not a religion
How can you say your “muslim youths” lack basic knowledge if Islam when they start Islamic studies from the cradle? What exactly are the taught in that school? And why do you Muslims take up fights for your prophets and for your god? Isn’t he mighty enough to fight his own battles?
Furthermore, if the “so called irate and under knowledgeable youths” got their teachings wrong, what about the elders? Or were there no muslim elders in that market who would have set the records straight?
So please spare the
us Islamic teaching!
My Dearest God in heaven, please come down very quick, save and deliver mankind from Evildoers.
If you can’t even get your words straight, how can you even understand what you’re saying? I’m sure you’re confused right now.
That said, you must be silly to compare Christianity to Islam! How many Christians have you seen or heard if who killed because Jesus was insulted? If Jesus didn’t curse or abuse those who insulted and persecuted him in his lifetime but instead prayed for them, then why should we? That is what a “religion of peace” is all about.
So shut that trap!
You don’t see the true nature of Muslims be it friend or foe until you make a negative comment about their religion. It’s all about religion for them, and not humanity. These teachings are ingrained in them from the cradle, just as peace and love are ingrained in the hearts of Christians from cradle.
Who the heck is your prophet? Is he God? Even God in his power and might don’t strike you down the moment you err, he gives plenty of rooms for repentance! So what are you talking about?
If your so called prophet is indeed of God and is alive, why doesn’t he fight his own battle?
How many of you have received blessings and healings just by saying his name?
Better open your eyes before it becomes too late for you.
Too much evil people in this world
Is these people not tired of human blood?
That is the work and the type of love to their neighbor that mohammed thaught them……
Furk this people are insane. Stop killing in d name of Allah . Bad ass people
Edward Dunham you are the one that looks exactly like an ape… Idiotic and brain dead animal in human cloth.
Mariya Sheikh and Mahammad Adams you are both brain dead. May the evil your stupid religion brings elude you both
@Mark dont act cowardly and say we all serve the same God… I don’t want to comment but I can hold it any longer. Will God ask u to kill? @ Mohammed olaitan FYI we are not of old Testament., but New testament and in the new testament :it said thou shall not kill even hating your fellow brother is a murder . I just dont like Christians who will say we are serving the same God…My God said vengeance is Mine. ahe told us to turn our left cheeks to whoever have slapped the right one. He said wea are fools for Christs sake…..No doubts every creature was created by God but not all serve Him
CHRISTIANS, IBOS, SOUTH SOUTH, SOUTHEAST, KNOW THYSELF!
please some Chriatians should notact cowardly and say we all serve the same God… I don’t want to comment but I can hold it any longer. Will God ask u to kill? @ Mohammed olaitan FYI we are not of old Testament., but New testament and in the new testament :it said thou shall not kill even hating your fellow brother is a murder . I just dont like Christians who will say we are serving the same God…My God said vengeance is Mindtel us to turn our left cheeks to whoever have slapped the right one. He said wea are fools for Christs sake…..No doubts every creature was created by God but not all serve Him
None can disrespect
This is absolutely barbaric. God have mercy.
Stephen Toku ask your bible WHY the above verses fisrt before you ask for the ones in the quran
Adnan Quadri you see? no one will behead your head for your comment now but God of heaven will arrest you for your comment. You shall be visited soon By God
So what will happen to that man now? Will he face the law of the land? Can someone pls answer me?
You guys are spoiling the fun here. I was waiting for Musa Kabiru Musa to respond to Charlon Chijioke’s passages from the Koran.
V good job
Always wondering how some people find it so easy to kill their fellow human being… Why always Muslim here and there and later u pple will says Islam is a religion of peace. You guys should try to embrace peace for once everything shouldn’t be killing .. Na wa o
Prophet Mohammed is a sex addict, google it and see, he even get married to a six years old girl still google it and see, Google the sex life of him Mohammed and see if he is worthy respecting as a leader and a prophet of God
Are we no longer having freedom of speech in Nigeria
With all yhe respects due, ur write up is fit for the trash bin. No law, no matter how sacred shld take a human life. Judgment belongs to the Supreme God not man. Ur religion belong to the stone age. Wake up from ur deep slumber!!!
Why always Muslim here and there , can’t you guys chill for once . No one can fight for God. Like seriously Muslim or Islam are the only problem we are facing in this world . enough is enough stop killing each other, if you know you tired of this life then go and jump in the lagoon not necessary for you to kill your fellow human being . Nonsense people
Prophet Mohammed is a sex addict that got married it a girl when she is just 6 years old , is this not Enough to insult him? Prophet Mohammed always rape women he behead their husbands ? Is it not enough reason to insult him ?
Indeed islam does not kill but moslems who practice islamic faith do kill on stupid reasons
Anyone who kills a human will be judged as if he kills entire human.. There is no justification whatsoever for wasting innocent woman… For the record,Prophet Muhammad (SAW) like every other prophets was abused ,beaten or rough-handled but they never resorted to any of these atrocities people engage in ,in the name of religion. Personal ego,tribalism,sectionalism,nepotism and many more social ills have hoodwinked many of us and we are always quick to attach our excesses both in utterance and action to the religion. We have very serious problem at hand and if jointly we dont seek solution through knowledge,mutual understanding and NO HATE SYNDROME, all of us ,I mean the entire people will have no one to blame and no where to turn when the calamities befall. I pray for justice to take its course while I pray with the family of the slain woman,may God give them the fortitude to bear the lost. PLEASE STOP HATE MESSAGES BOTH IN ACTION AND UTTERANCE. PEACE I SPEAK TO MY MOTHER LAND NIGERIA … FOR THE WISE AND FORTUNATE ENOUGH ONLY.
How many people are there? Was referring to them!
Your perception and thoughts have been twisted. Please get yourself informed, instead of spreading false claims.
do you know that anyone can just kill people and use muslim name?? Because it so easy to do that..but those people dont know anything in the religion..
Moslim who pratice Islam will never kill people..Islam is religion of peace…
The center can never hold.
You are an Animal how i wish I will know you in person so that your head will be cut off then you go and tell your useless Muhammad that the cut off your head because you kill an innocent women fool like you
Nigeria have problems. I don’t know how far you have to hide behind religion and tribal sentiments. No love at all for one another. That’s no country. Nigeria is not a country.
Zailani Babba Pariya there is nothing like that in THE HOLY BIBLE where do you get those verses from?
Is dat wat ur quran tells u .God frgive us
This picture is fake and so is the information.
Mohammed Olaitan Ibrahim Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. Romans 12:19
Mark Chiyanda do not said what you dont know Chiyanda, no two ways to the kingdom of God, for bible said in John 14:6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Muslims are a terrorist, animals, even dere religion is wicked nd vengeance
Peaceful nd killing
Ehya, shey dat your sex addict prophet, dat marry a six(6)yrs old girl in d Qur’an
By d way some of d Muslims burn a bible nd we did not beheaded dem coz of that, useless religion, fake also, all dey do is to be bowing down for a murderer (prophet mohammed)
dis is evil…………
ALL THE MUSLIMS ARE PURE EVIL, THE SURPOSE TO BE COMPLETELY WIPED OUT FROM EXISTANC, ANIMALS ARE BETTER THAN THEM THEY DESERVE TO EXIST
THEY DN’T DESERVE TO LIVE
All of you are Slaves… peace will never be in your family… iseeee iseeee iseeeee
Umu abakiliki na nsuka… una go suffer all una life … iseee iseee iseee

Hummm!! Pls & pls my pple no religion ever preach peace than #islam…
And 4 those that mis-undstnd tha holy book #Al_qoran, u better find the meaning of #AL_FITNA in ur fake book…
This why Nigeria is still not moving forward whenever you see anything or news in the media check them up before you start commenting on it, though Quran said your should kill anybody, people killing each other today everywhere in the world many reasons known to them for someone like this my brother that quoted Quran out of contents, for him l will just give one biblical verse too to know that you don’t read your bible as 1st Samuel 15vs 3, in the book of Deuteronomy as well if you know your bible very well, you sentiment, hatred and so on set in this type of situation, Reverend king l think you should search your memory very well about him and in the history of killing l think you should remember Hitler was he a Muslim answer you very self and even presently in Israel today and back to the history of Christians crusaders. My bro killing should be condemned and if it’s true killer should face the law of the land.
No religion preach peace than islam i knw, but there were some illitrates in this religion who take such act…
True Religion needs no one to protect it. True God will need no protection but is the one protecting. True religion does not need defence because it defends itself. True prophets will need no defence because they will be defended by their works. True books of God will need no protection because God has already anointed them hence they are already protected. Even if you burn them, that will never have any effect on the spreading of the good news. Wake up and open your eyes and ears. Jesus has been insulted since but no one has ever acted in the name of protecting Him, why because He is God himself. God should have mercy on these cruel people who hide behind their cruel prophet. Amen
This is horrifying to say the least

“Animals”!!!. Even if your religion teaches violence, this is 2016, don’t you have feelings? Wow!!! Religion of anger/vegance!! The bible says ” Vegance is mine”. Only God should be able to judge people, not humans. Beheading another human being in the name of religion!!!! Do you think God will be happy that you did that!! Senseless people!!!!!
That why most Arabic countries are battle fields..Islamic is not a peaceful religion..what we see speaks volumes..good example are Somalia Afghanistan, Lebanon and many others ..If what they preach is peace then why do we see the opposite in this Islamic state..We need to do something before this fools finishes us ..They either don’t understand their religion or their religion is wrong.. We need to stand for innocent Christians killed by this Animals by saying enough is enough..you remember the innocent Garisa university students then Nigeria girls ..surely what did this innocent kids do
What a lazy god(Allah that can not fight for himself) they serve.
They reported my face account, but fail to close it. Cowards musilms! Vengeance is mine says God. We are the chirldren of light and light will always prevail over darkness, evil over good, forgiveness over vengeance and Jesus over satan.
Mr Lukman Alhassan don’t post things that betray your age remba our kids gonna read all these posts one day
Mark Chiyanda . I don’t agree with you. We don’t serve the same God with you Muslims. Jews and Christians do. God told Moses. I AM THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, THE GOD OF ISAAC AND THE GOD JACOB. Tell my people that “I AM” has sent me, not Allah. Jesus never preached Allah, but God “I AM” the Father of all universe.
Mr Micheal Ejike I oblige you to emulate this Proverb 17:28 gonna help you alot
If yur god can’t fight for himself he is a fake god indeed
Arent the educated Muslim got nothing to say ? Why such silence on here. Give us some explanation on such act and reasons pls.
