Popular Nigerian singer, Abdulazeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, has sparked religious debate with his recent statement on Jesus Christ.
The controversial artist asserted that a Muslim who does not believe in Jesus is not a true adherent of Islam.
“No Muslim is a Muslim if he does not believe in Jesus (Peace be upon him),” he wrote on his X handle.
Naira Marley, who has been vocal about religious matters since the commencement of Ramadan, has continued to share his views on faith, drawing reactions from followers.
His latest remark ignited discussions among Christians and Muslims, with many debating the role of Jesus in both religions.
While Christians regard Jesus as God or the Son of God, Muslims see him as a prophet and a messenger of God sent to the Children of Israel with the Gospel.
The singer’s statement has further fueled conversations on interfaith understanding, with some commending his perspective, while others challenge his interpretation of Islamic teachings.
