Sunni Muslim Scholar Urges to Stop Killing in the Name of Islam

Sheikh Mustapha Ibrahim has appealed to those deviant Muslims who are killing and misbehaving in the name of Islam to put a stop to it.

The Chairman of Islamic Council for Development and Humanitarian Service (ICODEHS) in Ghana Sheikh Mustapha Ibrahim has appealed to those deviant Muslims who are killing and misbehaving in the name of Islam to put a stop to it.

He said the Islamic religion preaches peace and makes it clear that no one should take his or her life and the life of others, and hence those terrorizing communities and countries in the name of religion are not Muslims.

The Sheikh said this after inaugurating a six- classroom block to the Military Academy and Training School to enhance learning in the barracks.

Many children need good education and as such, this would assist in the teaching and learning of both Muslims and non-Muslim in the barracks, inculcate military discipline into the children and make them good citizens, he said.

Sheikh Ibrahim added that the mandate of ICODEHS is to improve the quality of life of the poor and vulnerable and to increase their participation in the provision of professional and technical support, a world where everyone would have access to food, shelter, education and well-being.

“This mandate has made our dream a reality through the Dubai Charitable Association.”

He appealed to the teachers of the school to ensure that the children are given the proper education they require to make them good Muslims and citizens.

He suggested the need for a committee to be established to oversee the day-to-day management of the school and ensure that it benefits both Muslims and non-Muslims at the barracks and the public.

Rear Admiral Emmanuel Akoto Bonsu, Commandant at the Military Academy, expressed gratitude to ICODEHS for putting up the edifice, adding this would enhance the educational system.
