The Grand Mufti Of Yorubaland, Sheikh Daood Imran Molaasan said, “It is time Yoruba Islam takes a new shape, and it is time for the revival of Yoruba Islam.”
Sheikh Daood Imran Molaasan made a clarion call yesterday at a Jumat Service in Iwo Osun State. He said, “Reminding Yoruba Muslims of many things they have forgotten about Islam and putting in place some things needed, like Islamic structures which colonial and Christian missionaries had destroyed, should be the goal of every revivalist from here, the light of Islam will begin to spread across the entire Yoruba race.”
Islam In Yorubaland Needs Rebranding – Sheikh Daood Imran Molaasan
Sheikh Daood noted that, “When browsing through the history of Islam, we would see that transition, the turning point of Islam only took place when when Medina was created. The Medina creation as the headquarters of Islam granted the then Muslims, authority, strength and security. With Medina, Islam began to spread. The spread surrounding politics, economy, social interactions and every other aspect of human life.
So, to channel a new path for Yoruba Islam and for Islam in Yorubaland to take its shape, Yoruba Muslims must have their headquarters, a place and fertile land to grow Islam just like Medina. And Iwo has what it takes without being sentimental,” he added.
Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Dr A. Rosheed Adewale Akanbi Telu 1 appointed Sheikh Daood Imran Molaasan as Grand Mufti of Yorubaland on 05/Oct /2021 by at his edifice in the Iwo, Osun State.
