Edraak Webinar Series #7 - Shariah & Religious Freedom: The Conflict and Choice in Today's Nigeria
Description
Join us as Dr. Kazeem Olaniyan explores Nigeria's historical journey with Shariah implementation, examining how the lack of absolute religious freedom has impacted the nation's path to peace and prosperity. From pre-colonial to post-independence periods, Dr. Olaniyan demonstrates how Shariah extends beyond a mere legal system to encompass a comprehensive code of conduct designed for human welfare. The discussion will critically analyze the ongoing challenges in harmonizing Shariah with Nigeria's constitutional framework, and why the quest for its full implementation continues to shape the nation's religious and legal landscape.
Speaker: Dr. Saeed Khan
