On Friday, the 8th of December, 2023, the leader of The Kadiriyya Religious Sect of Africa, Khalifa Qaribullahi Sheikh Nasiru Kabara gave a special certification to one of his students, Mal Ali Kudubu Kamfa to teach people what they need to know about the religion of Islam especially Hadith.
This followed a close observation and scrutiny of the enormous contributions given by Mal Kudubu Kamfa towards Islamic scholarship for an extended period of time.
PRIME TIME NEWS gathered that this certification, called IJAZA in Arabic, is a testimony and license confirming that the recipient has been certified to be an Islamic teacher.
According to Sheikh Alkali Mustapha Nasiru Kabara, it is the tradition of Darul Qadiriyya (Qadiriyya House) to give such types of certifications to only those who deserve it and those who have the religious ethics to guide people to the right path and promote unity among Muslims, not those who will incite violence.
Alkali Mustapha Nasiru Kabara has stressed the need to have certified Islamic scholars that will be certifying others before they start teaching.
Mal Kabiru Ahmad, known at Darul Qadiriyya as “Bilalun Nabiy”, said that Mal Ali Kudubu Kamfa deserves his certification looking at his contributions to Islam and in promoting peace and unity among people in his teaching.
Alhaji Abdulkadir Na-Yaya Kamfa, Mal Kudubu’s uncle and his brother Alhaji Junaidu, express their delight and gratitude to Khalifa Qaribullahi Sheikh Nasiru Kabara for this great position and responsibility given to their family member.
On his part, Sheikh Ali Kudubu Kamfa expressed his deepest gratitude to Khalifa Qaribullahi Sheikh Nasiru Kabara for trusting him with this type of honour to help educate the Muslim Ummah. He also said that he will double his efforts to continue learning and teaching people the messages of Allah.
Mal Kudubu called on Islamic teachers and preachers to be God-fearing and have pure intention in their service to the Muslim Ummah. He also cautioned them not to be deeply after popularity through unethical, un-Islamic means.
At the end, Mal Ali Kudubu Kamfa stressed the significance of having peace-loving Islamic clerics that will carry on with the peaceful messages of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him).
