THE RELIGIOUS AND SOCIO-EDUCATIONAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE MUSLIM STUDENTS’ SOCIETY ON CAMPUS

Abstract

I wish to start this presentation by showing my appreciation to the organisers of this occasion for giving me this opportunity to participate, as a guest speaker, in this noble duty of assisting the course of Islam. Organising a fund raising activity for procurement of a bus and stocking of a library by the Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria, Federal Polytechnic Kaura-Namoda Chapter, is a worthwhile project which should be supported by all Muslims, individuals and groups. For the MSS to enhance its numerous activities on campus in religious, social and educational spheres, its members must be well equipped with necessary tools and materials. Unfortunately, members are not in a position to provide these needs from the little they get from parents and sometimes governments as up-keep allowances.
