imageRamadan time in Nigeria is full of holiness you can feel it in the air that there is something special about the month of Ramadan. The preaching words of Allah and the feeling that you can get in Jannah, by doing good deeds in the month of Ramadan. In Nigeria, non-fasting is crime, especially in Kano, and those who are found to be violating the rules have been arrested and held for interrogation.

According to the Nigeria Today News, Since Ramadan began on 6th of June, Kano police have deployed its men to strategic places in the state to ensure compliance with the rules of Ramadan. Those who are found to be violating the rules have been arrested and held for interrogation.

Deputy Commandant of Kano's Hisbahm, Nabahani Usman, said that those arrested would be prosecuted and be sentenced according to the law. "We hold them at Hisbah for at least two days to teach them the importance of fasting”, Usman said. He added that every adult Muslim must observe the holy month.

Fasting is obligatory for all healthy Muslims - a test of patience and endurance.

"We deem it fit and necessary to ensure that every Muslim in Kano State observe Ramadan. We have a report of people who are not complying with this important pillar of Islam; hence we mobilize our men to arrest them," Usman emphasized.
