WAHALA! Shock As Emir Of Kano, Sanusi Gets Dethroned From Top Position; SEE Details
The Tijjaniyyah Islamic sect in Nigeria has officially announced the removal of the Office of Khalifa, a position previously held by former Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II.
The decision was announced in a statement signed by Khalifa Sheikh Mahy Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse, the global leader of the Tijjaniyyah order, after ‘ extensive talks with senior academics and stakeholders. ‘
Speaking on the subject, Khalifa Sheikh Mahy said, ” With the return of Khalifa Muhammad Sanusi II to the Kano Emirate, it has been resolved that the Office of Khalifa within the Tijjaniyyah in Nigeria will no longer exist. ”
The Tijjaniyyah in Nigeria will now be led by notable scholars such as Sheikh Tahir Usman Bauchi and Sheikh Sharif Ibrahim Saleh Al- Husaini, who will monitor the community’ s activities.
These senior sheikhs will guide the affairs of Tijjaniyyah in Nigeria with wisdom and dedication, ” the statement emphasized.
Khalifa Sheikh Mahy confirmed his involvement in organizing the National Mawlid celebrations alongside Tijjaniyyah academics and leaders.
” The leadership of the National Mawlid celebrations of Sheikh Ibrahim Niasse will remain under my stewardship, working closely with the ashyaks and muqaddams, ” according to him.
The message also mentioned a key step toward global Tijjaniyyah unification.
” In our efforts to foster unity and cooperation among Tijjaniyyah sheikhs worldwide, we have established an office at the United Nations, ” Khalifa Sheikh Mahy told journalists.
The UN office will serve as a venue for the development of a World Tijjaniyyah Assembly, with the goal of deepening ties and advancing the sect’ s global purpose.
The declaration marks a shift in Nigeria’ s Tijjaniyyah leadership structure, promoting unity and collaboration while eliminating Khalifa’ s unique role.
Khalifa Sheikh Mahy ended the statement with a prayer, saying, ” May Allah guide us in implementing these resolutions for the benefit of the Tijjaniyyah community and the Ummah at large. ”
This decision follows attempts to establish a uniform and efficient leadership structure within the Tijjaniyyah order, both in Nigeria and globally.
A lot of people have reacted to this, someone said; ” The title of Tijjaniyya Khalifaship awarded to SLS was in the first place a wrong one and a high spiritual hypocrisy, which demoralizes the followers in Kano and Nigeria in general.
Such position is meant for SUFI, who is by character and appearance a humble and very pious as well as God fearing Muslim. Not Sanusi Lamido Sanusi! ! ! ! ! ! “
