It is very pertinent for us to understand that it is an affront on the Muslim leadership if the Sultanate made an announcement on the sighting of cresent and another person comes out to give a contrary instruction. No scholar will challenge his governor and go against curfew.
Khawarij inclination. Disobedience to recognized leadership. Same way BH does not recognize the leadership we have today. We have to be careful not to fall into the line of thought of the Khawarij. Sultan sits with council of Scholars before annoucing. It is not unilateral
If we see everything wrong with Boko Haram going against constituted authorities and believing in doing things the way they feel is right then everything is wrong with the way some are going against the Sultanate decision as the designated Islamic leadership in Nigeria.
