Senior Lecturer

PERSONAL INFORMATION

I am a senior career researcher with a passion to introduce genuine and superb innovation into the field of Islamic Studies. My areas of specialization include Islamic Studies and Curriculum and Instructions, Hadith, Tafsīr, Islamic History and Inter-Religious Dialogue. My research focuses on the use of potential knowledge of hadith in finding solutions to various human problems. Obviously, the contemporary society is struggling with a lot of daunting challenges such as prevalence of moral decadence in education, politics, and economics. Nigeria as a country is apparently entangled with these various challenges which make Nigerians seek greener pasture abroad.  With my research, I want to prove the potentiality of hadith in providing solutions to all these challenges.  

I am an active member of Nigeria Association of Arabic and Islamic Studies Teachers (NATAIS) and Nigerian Association for the Study of Religions (NASR).
