9 people have been sentenced to death in Kano state for blaspheming against the Prophet Muhammad and that has drawn a public outcry on social media. The incident occurred in June, and last Thurday, an Upper Shari’a court sentenced them to death. The Kano State Sharia Court of Appeal, in a statement, said the nine were found guilty under Sections 110 and 382b of the Sharia Penal Court law of 2000. Reacting to the judgement, many took to Twitter to appeal for the sentence to be overturned. The #SaveKanoNine hashtag began to trend, with many calling for higher-placed individuals and bodies such as Amnesty International to interfere.

I know blaspheming isn't right cause the bible condemned it too but why are Muslims always fast in executing people. its not fair. Let Allah be the judge.

I have always tried to remain indifferent on this issue but a lot of questions always come to my mind whenever I hear the phrase "sharia court"
* Is the sharia court above or under the supreme court in Nigeria?
* Is the sharia law in line with the laws of Nigeria?
* For those who may say the sharia law is neither above nor below the laws of Nigeria:Does it mean Nigeria has 2 separate laws running concurrently?
* Can every religion decide they want to be governed by their religious laws rather than the laws of Nigeria?
* If the answer to the above question is YES, what happens if every religion in Nigeria decide they want to be governed by their religious laws? What also happens if they go ahead to form a police force (to enforce the laws) and courts (to interpret their laws)?
* Are such institutions accommodated in the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria?
And many more questions like these.
Please can any of out learned friends on this forum enlighten me?
I'd really like to get some answers to these questions.
Thanks.
