L-Mu’minaat,an organisation of Muslim women, has dissociated Islam from chaos, saying that peace remains a fundamental principle in the religion.
The Oyo State chapter of the body disclosed this during a courtesy visit by its executive members to the African Newspapers of Nigeria (ANN) Plc, publishers of Tribune titles, in Ibadan, Oyo State.
In an address read by its Public Relations Officer, Muhibbah Bakre, the body advised Nigerians to shun all acts of violence because no meaningful development would occur in a charged atmosphere.
The organisation described Muslims as peace loving and called on the media to desist from painting the religion of Islam and its adherents in negative pictures.
Al-Mu’minaat urged the Boko Haram and other violent organisations to embrace peace as a tool for conflict settlement.
The Property Manager, ANN Plc, Alhaji Oluwole Akinloye, who led the management team of ANN Plc, admonished mothers to give sound academic and moral trainings to their wards for them to become useful individuals in future.
He commended the effort of the Muslim women at enlightening the populace on the need to live righteously.
