CAN: Prophet Mohammed Never Fought Christians, He Gave Them His Mosque To Worship In

The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Kaduna State yesterday condemned comments credited to Islamic scholar Dr. Ahmad Gumi, that the President of CAN, Pastor Ayo Oristejafor and other Christian leaders live flamboyant lives. The Kaduna State Secretary of CAN, Rev. Sunday Ibrahim, who addressed a press conference yesterday, said for Gumi to make Christianity as an object of Ramadan preaching and castigating the leaders for alleged corruption, is unacceptable. Reacting to Gumi’s Ramadan lecture aired on state-owned Capital Television, state secretary of CAN Reverend Sunday Ibrahim said at a news conference that Gumi made derogatory comments on Christians. “Sheikh Gumi, during his Tafsir, said that Christians claim that Jesus is a son of God and that he is God and saviour, and that it is a wrong conception. This to us is a degrading comment on our saviour, Jesus Christ,” Ibrahim (of CAN) said. According to the CAN scribe in the state, “he (Gumi) went further to say that the more archbishops, bishops, pastors and general overseers, the more iniquities in the society and he also went further to make some degrading comments on the personality of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ”. On the pictures of the jet and limousine car, which were said to belong to Oristejafor and his wife, and also the objects of Gumi’s teachings, Rev. Ibrahim queried: “How is that Gumi’s concern?” Ibrahim added that “Prophet Mohammed (Peace be upon him) never fought any Christian. In fact the prophet invited the Nazran Christians for a visit in Yathrib (Medina). And when it was time for their prayers, he offered them his Mosque.
