The Nasrul-lahi-li Fathi Society of Nigeria (NASFAT) has announced plans to establish an arbitration centre for resolving disputes through the application of Sharia principles in the South West.

Speaking at a press conference in Lagos to mark NASFAT’s 30th anniversary, the President of NASFAT Worldwide, Alhaji Ayodeji AbdulRauf, emphasized that the centre would not bear the NASFAT name to ensure inclusivity. He noted that the initiative would serve both Muslims and non-Muslims, providing a platform for dialogue while integrating Sharia law in a manner that aligns with Nigeria’s multi-religious society.

“We aim to establish an arbitration centre where people, regardless of their faith, can engage in discussions and benefit from Sharia law principles. It is essential to adopt an inclusive approach that aligns with our environment,” AbdulRauf stated.

He stressed the importance of understanding religious laws to foster tolerance, citing the voluntary adoption of the hijab by some female members as an example of informed religious practice. He also urged journalists to verify information directly from NASFAT and take advantage of scholarship opportunities for Islamic studies.

NASFAT’s Chief Missioner, Imam Abdul-Azeez Onike, reassured that the proposed arbitration centre would adhere to Sharia principles while respecting Nigerian laws and the rights of other religious groups.

“Sharia embodies peace, mercy, and goodwill. It is possible to promote Islamic values without violating the laws of the land,” Onike said. He also revealed plans for a certification program for aspiring arbitrators and the formation of arbitration committees.

Onike further clarified that Nigeria is a multi-religious, not secular, country, arguing that secularism implies a lack of belief in God. He reiterated NASFAT’s commitment to spreading Islamic teachings without creating religious extremism.
