Emir Sanusi: “Everything That Happens Is Predestined by God”

The reinstated Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi, has said God predestined his reinstatement.

Speaking during the Friday prayers at the Kofar Kudu Central Mosque in Kano, Sanusi II emphasised that everything that happens is according to God’s will and cannot be questioned by anyone.

He urged people to remain steadfast in their faith and focus on the deeds of Allah during both good and bad times.

“Whoever believes that Allah alone gives everything must take the decision of Allah wholeheartedly. No one asks Allah’s reasons for anything.

“We were told that whoever did not accept destiny is from Allah, his belief is not complete. One should be thankful in times of good and bad situations. We must believe that whatever happens to us is predestined from God and what we couldn’t have is from Him.

“We are fast approaching Zhul Hijja which is very beneficial and we must observe supplications these days,” he stated.

Sanusi II was reinstated as the 16th Emir of Kano by the state Governor, Abba Yusuf, noting that Sanusi’s reappointment was “based on his competence, credibility and popularity.”

He had initially ruled as the 14th Emir but was deposed in 2020 when he had a fallout with the former state governor and present National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje.
