Nigeria – Islam and a Good Society
Decide which of these you need the
most and put them into need order
Islam and a Good Society
Today :
Lower attainers – know rules which might make
                  people behave well where they live

Middle attainers – understand some Nigerian caliph’s
                    teachings on society

Higher attainers – to be able to explain the impact
                  religion may have on Nigerian society
                       – positive and negative impacts
Maitatsine
• Mohammed Marwa died in 1980
  He was best known by his nickname
  Maitatsine.
  He was an Islamic scholar in Nigeria.
• He was originally from Marwa in northern
  Cameroon. After his education he moved to
  Kano, Nigeria in about 1945, where he became
  known for his preachings on the Qur'an.
• Maitatsine claimed to be a prophet so many
  Muslims would say he is not a true Muslim.
Anti - Materialism
• Maitatsine spoke against the use of radios, watches, bicycles and
  cars.
• He also said you should not have more money than you really
  needed.

• Imagine a place called “Maitat” in which people only have the
  money they need and give the rest away. A world without a need
  for so many things people think they need to buy…….

• 1) Draw and label a birds eye plan of the fab things you might have
     in Maitat – a place where everyone shares everything.
• 2) Think of reasons why you might want to live in Maitat ?
• 3) Think of reasons why you might not want to live in Maitat ?

True Values of the Caliph
What is needed to be a good caliph (ruler ) ?

•   Justice
•   Knowledge
•   Being uncorruptable
•   Creating a sense of the importance of work
•   Allow women to make progress and lead
Plenary
Muslims believe we are all part of one global community
or brotherhood “UMMAH”.

think of when looking at these images of their Nigerian
brothers and sisters.
