<p>Delivering a ruling, the Presiding Judge, Malam Bashir Mahe, dissolved the marriage after fair hearing from both the prosecution and defence counsel.</p>
<p>Mahe held that the marriage between Tsafe and Wasila was contrary to the teachings of Islam.</p>
<p>The judge said marriage between the couples contradicted Qur’an chapter 3 verse 23, page 79 and page 77 of Ihkamil Ihkami.</p>

<p>The Hisbah Commission filed the suit seeking a dissolution of the 23-year-old union.</p>
<p>The commission told the court that the marriage between Tsafe and Wasila was against Sharia laws and Islamic jurisprudence.</p>
<p>The commission said it was compelled to file a case against the couple after efforts by the Islamic Advisory Council(Shura) and the Tsafe Emirate since 2020 yielded no fruit.</p>
<p>Counsel to the commission, Malam Sani Muhammed, told the court that investigations by various Islamic bodies and the emirate showed that the couple who got married some time in 1999 are directly related and so marriage is forbidden between them.</p>
<p>Muhammed said the act contravenes the teachings of Islam as indicated in the Holy Qur’an chapter three verse 23.</p>
<p>He, therefore, prayed the court to immediately terminate the marriage.</p>
<p>The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Tsafe, has eight children with Musa.</p>
