The Zamfara State Ministry of Women and Social Development Affairs, in collaboration with the Ministry of Religious Affairs, has led a weekly preaching session for women across the state, themed “Submission to Almighty God”.
The initiative is part of the state’s broader commitment to strengthening spiritual values and promoting moral discipline among women, who serve as pillars of families and communities.
The Commissioner for Women and Social Development Affairs, Dr. Aisha M.Z. Anka, called on all women comprising traders, housewives, civil servants, and residents to actively propel the aims of the preaching.
She stated, This initiative was designed by women and for women who we believed by empowering them spiritually, is as equal as empowering families, communities, and ultimately the entire state.
When our women are guided by the teachings of Islam, they become exemplary mothers, responsible citizens, and agents of positive change as the divine message did not exclude them in becoming god-fearing and honest in all ramifications of life.
While supporting the initiative, the Governor’s wife of Zamfara State, Hajiya Huriyya Dauda Lawal, commended the Ministry’s efforts and expressed her commitment to the program.
Huriyya said, “I am deeply passionate about reviving the spiritual consciousness of our women. I commend the Honourable Commissioner and her team for this timely intervention.
“I will work hand in hand with the Ministry for Women and Social Development to ensure no woman is left behind in the noble journey of Islamic enlightenment. Together, we will build a God-fearing generation of women and children”, she assured.
