The Webs of Shaitan
The webs of Shaitan pervade the horizon, catching and clutching Muslims in rapid succession. Shaitan is a hunter: his arrows are the eyes, the ears, the tongue, the stomach, the private parts, the hands and the legs. How safe are we from the traps of Shaitan? How immune are we from the arrows of enemy? This small book highlights, in a free and racy prose, the major areas where Shaitan penetrates souls and the routes of escaping him. The first part, the web, examines the woe-bearing w’s in the hands of Shaitan: words,world, wealth, women and wine in the context of our modern world. The second part, the way, aims at making Muslims retrace their steps to Islam. This it does by schematizing the imperative of knowledge, and among other things, providing a number of tips on perfecting salat - the criterion between kufr and Islam.
Managing Violent Religious Extremism in Fragile States
This book examines how African states can build the institutional capacity to better prevent, manage and cope with the new security challenges posed by violent religious extremism. Despite the evidence that violent religious extremism is exacerbated by underlying social, political, economic and governance factors, many states have focused their efforts only on reactive and coercive response strategies, overlooking more long-term measures. This comparative study of Nigeria and Kenya reflects on why insurgency in Kenya has not escalated to full blown terrorism as it has with Boko Haram in Nigeria, in spite of the similarities in relatively weak institutions of governance and colonial legacies ...
Security Challenges and Management in Modern Nigeria
This collection of essays explores the critical and fluid nature of security challenges that have plagued Nigeria since colonial times. Insecurity in diverse forms remains the bane of growth and progressive development in the country, and has the capability to derail a society no matter how sophisticated. What has generated insecurity at the macro- and micro-levels? How has insecurity been tackled? Why have security challenges escalated particularly in the post-independence period? What lessons could be learnt from the way security matters have been (mis)handled in the past? This volume presents chapters on the historical roots and antecedents of security challenges, and considers the nexus between the economy, political leadership and development, and its impacts on security in modern Nigeria. It also explores the effectiveness of the strategies employed to address security challenges, and discusses why some security challenges have lingered.
