As Muslims worldwide celebrate the birth of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), Professor Lateef Abbas, a renowned scholar of Islamic and Arabic Studies at the University of Ibadan, has proposed a solution to Nigeria’s growing crime rate and moral decline. He called on the government to incorporate religious education into school curricula as a means to instill moral values in future generations.
Many supporters have backed Professor Abbas’ proposal, emphasizing that religious instruction could play a pivotal role in fostering the fear of God among children and shaping their moral compass from an early age. Advocates believe that integrating such education into the curriculum would help address societal challenges and contribute to a more peaceful and morally upright society.
They also urged policymakers to take this recommendation seriously, highlighting its potential to improve the overall quality of life and social order in the country.
