This was disclosed over the weekend at the 20 years anniversary of Aduranigba Daars Sahaadat Alasalatu of Nigeria( ADASSAN) cum Maolud Nabbiy, at Mowe, Ogun State.
According to him, there was a time he was running an Islamic program on radio, a traditional program was also been run by an elderly man,when the man was asked if there is anything like money ritual, the man said there was nothing like.
"The old man said there is no deity producing money or make one rich, its only God that can make you rich. In that case youths should be careful of what they are doing. There was also a time a young boy was caught at Ibadan with his friend skull, when asked what he wanted to used it for, he claim it was for money ritual so as to buy a mansion at Lekki in Lagos.
"Most parents don't have time for their children anymore, we don't teach them our religion also moral any longer. Some parents have destroy the life of their children, all because they wanted them to be rich at cost. We now have internet fraudsters parents association in Nigeria. Prophet Muhammad said there are two ways of life for men, the day of happiness and bitterness, we should let our children know these days. Don't think you have it today, it will be like that forever, there are time for everything.
"Majority of us parents always show it to our children that it's well. We are only taking care of their body, we are not taken care of their spiritual life. Majority of those whose parents were rich couldn't sustained what's left of their parents now. Because of worldly things some youths now can go to any length to make money."
He added that, parents should show their children ways of God, because a child who knows God will never go astray or do wrong things.
"We should let our children knows that the rich also cry and made them understand that they cannot get things done on a plater of gold. They should work for it. Those who cannot endure suffering today are those being lure into cultism, kidnapping and other vices. We also need to teach our children our language, rather we are forcing them to speak english. "

"The process of his transformation was frustrating and challenging, this is evident in the various shortcomings that characterized the process, he absented himself from modrasat at will, he even attempted abandoning the program, my father will chase him back, while our mother would never mind traveling with him from Iwo to mile 12 in Lagos in order to remain there. Here we are today, all glory to Allah alone for seeing him to this level."
