The Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado-Bayero, has urged the Muslim faithful to use the Ramadan fasting to pray for the country.
Ado-Bayero made the call on Friday in his address to the state’s people after the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar, announced the sighting of the crescent in some parts of the country.
He urged Muslims to devote themselves to praying to the Almighty Allah to address the country’s problems.
The Emir also urged Muslims to assist the needy, particularly the orphans, widows and the less privileged.
He stressed the importance of peaceful coexistence, without which, no development can be achieved.
Ado-Bayero congratulated Muslims for witnessing the Ramadan fasting of the year, 1443 AH.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar when Muslims fast once a year.
Muslims will start the fasting from Saturday, Ramadan 1,1443 AH., equivalent to April 2, 2022.
