Look at what the UN did concerning that particular declaration of Jerusalem as the capital. They have voted against the issue and the majority of nations have decried what Trump has done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat one alone sounds a warning to Trump. It means that the world is behind Palestinians because the world is looking at the issue of justice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Zakaria advised Donald Trump to apply wisdom and diplomacy in handling the age long land dispute between Palestinians and Israelis saying, \u201cPerhaps it is for Trump and his allies to understand that if you have power at a point in time don\u2019t misuse that power. Don\u2019t think because you have power what you want must happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPower keeps on rotating. Power may leave your hand just as power left some people hands before you now have power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also implored Muslims to promote gender equality by not treating women as infidels.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Zakaria underscored the need for Muslims to promote cleanliness in their communities in line with the humanity legacies of the Prophet of Islam.<\/p>\n<p>A senior lecturer at the University for Development Studies (UDS), Sheikh Dr. Al-Hussain Haazic Zakaria in a presentation on the topic, \u201cApplication of prophetic vision to the challenges of contemporary Islamic leadership,\u201d admonished Muslims to choose leaders with vision and passion for socioeconomic development.<\/p>\n<p>He stressed the need for Muslims to live exemplary lifestyles that will attract non Muslims to join Islam.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Al-Hussain Zakaria encouraged Muslim parents and guardians to nurture the youth to be responsible citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Other speakers highlighted the significance of the humanity legacies of the Prophet of Islam.<\/p>\n<p>The Northern Regional Minister, Salifu Saeed appealed to Islamic Clerics to intensity their prayers for national cohesion.<\/p>\n<p>He warned trouble makers in Dagbon to stop making inflammatory comments on Tamale based local radio stations.<\/p>\n<p>Salifu Saeed reaffirmed government\u2019s determination to bring to finality, the protected chieftaincy dispute between the Abudu and Andani royals in the Dagbon traditional area.<\/p>\n<p>He disclosed government\u2019s intention to recruit 3,000 Arabic Instructors in 2018 to promote circular education.<\/p>\n<p>Spiritual leader and chief Imam of Masjidul Qudwa, Sheikh Amin Bamba prayed for the nation\u2019s prosperity.<\/p>\n<p>He condemned lateness to events christened, \u201cAfrican time,\u201d which according to him, has affected the continent\u2019s development.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: -1 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Sunday, 24 December 2017 Source: citifmonline.com 2017-12-24 Senior Lecturer at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Dr. Sibaway Abubakar A Senior Lecturer with the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Dr. Sibaway Zakaria has urged Muslims to ignore the United States of America President, Donald Trump\u2019s controversial declaration [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":449809,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-449808","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-local-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
