Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation. In 2000 and 2001, twelve northern states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria introduced Islamic criminal law as one of a number of measures aiming at "reintroducing the shari'a." Immediately after its adoption, defendants were sentenced to death by stoning or to amputation of the hand. Apart from a few well publicised trials, however, the number and nature of cases tried under Islamic criminal law are little known. Based on a sample of trials, the present thesis discusses the introduction of Islamic criminal law and the evolution of judicial practice within the regions historical, cultural, political and religious context. The introduction of Islamic criminal law was initiated by politicians and supported by Muslim reform groups, but its potential effects were soon mitigated on higher judicial levels and aspects of the law were contained by local administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the jurisdiction of Shari'ah Courts of Katsina State of Nigeria as regards to the application of Islamic Penal law alongside with the jurisdiction of the civil courts in the State. Technically, the jurisdiction of a court is the actual authority that is vested in a Court for the exercising of judicial power in a particular case. The authority is customarily conferred on a court by the Statute that establishes such Court. The Shari'a Courts in Katsina State of Nigeria are established pursuant to the law by the Katsina State Legislature within the power that is conferred on it by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The research also analyses the overlapping of jurisdiction between the Shari'a Courts and other civil Courts, which further resulted in uncertainty as to which of the Courts' jurisdiction that Muslims of Katsina State are really subjected to. The methodology used in this research is a doctrinal legal analysis in which materials gathered from the library and the registry of some Courts in Katsina State is analysed. The research finds that, the penal jurisdiction conferred on the Shari'a Courts in Katsina State is more in the legislative pronouncement than actual exercise of the jurisdiction by the Courts. In consequence, the research finds that other provisions in the Nigerian Constitution and some legislation by the Katsina State legislature in respect of the jurisdiction of civil Courts are overlapping with the penal jurisdiction of Shari'a Courts in the State. It also finds that Muslims in Katsina State are denied the certainty of jurisdiction and laws to be applied on them in criminal proceedings despite the glaring provisions that render all Muslims subject of the jurisdiction of the Shari'a Courts and in accordance with the Shari'a Penal Code of Katsina State. The research then recommends for the amendment and or repeal of some provisions to ensure harmonious coexistence between the Shari'a Courts and civil Courts for the smooth dispensation of criminal justice in Katsina State.

Download or read book Religion and the Making of Nigeria written by Olufemi Vaughan and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Religion and the Making of Nigeria, Olufemi Vaughan examines how Christian, Muslim, and indigenous religious structures have provided the essential social and ideological frameworks for the construction of contemporary Nigeria. Using a wealth of archival sources and extensive Africanist scholarship, Vaughan traces Nigeria’s social, religious, and political history from the early nineteenth century to the present. During the nineteenth century, the historic Sokoto Jihad in today’s northern Nigeria and the Christian missionary movement in what is now southwestern Nigeria provided the frameworks for ethno-religious divisions in colonial society. Following Nigeria’s independence from Britain in 1960, Christian-Muslim tensions became manifest in regional and religious conflicts over the expansion of sharia, in fierce competition among political elites for state power, and in the rise of Boko Haram. These tensions are not simply conflicts over religious beliefs, ethnicity, and regionalism; they represent structural imbalances founded on the religious divisions forged under colonial rule.
