Kano State Hisbah Board has prohibited Muslims from sharing the pre-wedding pictures of the daughter of Emir of Kano, Zahrah Bayero, saying it is a sin.
The pre-wedding pictures of Ms. Zahrah revealed her shoulders, and the pictures have since stirred much criticism by Hisbah, Religious police known for sanctioning people for ‘immoral behaviors.’
The Religious police say any Muslim that is sharing Ms. Zahrah’s wedding pictures and videos has sinned.
This was disclosed in an interview with BBC Pidgin by the Kano Commander General of Hisbah, Harun Ibn-Sina, he said “The Emir’s daughter is not above the law, but failed to set a good example to other Muslims.
Harun Ibn-Sina also said those Muslims sharing the Emir’s daughter’s wedding pictures and videos have sinned.
BBC Pidgin reported: “Hisbah boss Sheik Harun Ibn Sina says di Emir daughter na Muslim wey no dey above di law and suppose lead by example if she wan blessings for her marriage.
“Di Hisbah boss also criticizes Pipo wey dey share di fotos and videos from di event saying na sin to share di materials,” BBC Pidgin reported.
Recall, Hisbah had prohibited tailors, supermarkets, and boutique owners from using mannequins to display clothes in the state.
Also, in June, Hisbah apprehended 40 teenagers for peddling condoms and Marijuana in Kano.
