The Kano State Hisbah Board has asked residents of other religions who are not fasting during this time to refrain from eating openly or doing anything publicly that may damage the Islamic religion or entice those fasting.
In an interview with AIT. live, Director-General of Hisbah, Abba Sai’Idu stated that the enforcement team now conducts more frequent patrols across the city to arrest any Muslim found engaging in any practice that is not by Islamic culture during the Holy Month.
During the Holy Month of Ramadan, Muslims are supposed to refrain from eating, drinking, having sex, or smoking during the day, as well as any other behaviors prohibited by the Holy Quran.
According to Abubakar Usman and Abubakar Ibrahim who are Muslims fasting throughout Ramadan, the duo asks manufacturers and government officials to mobilise resources to meet the needs of the underprivileged, who are fasting at this time.
Except in Christian-dominated communities such as Sabon Gari, Bompai, and Jaba, few food vendors in Kano State are currently open during the day because the majority of their customers are fasting.
