Ambassador Romoke Ayinde

Iyalaje Adini of Oyo State, Ambassador Rahmat Romoke Ayinde has advised women in the society to see this Ramadan period as a season to ensure to foster good relationships with our families and neighbours according to Allah's word.

Speaking on a program on Aje-Cowry radio, Amb Ayinde, who is the Chief executive Officer of Kayrom Lee Group of Companies said according to the holy Quran, Allah's love for women was so great that a verses was dedicated to then which is Surat al-Nisa, in the fourth chapter of the Qur'an and that should be every women's guide word in this holy month of Ramadan.

"We all know that the impact of Muslim women in the month of Ramadan can not be quantified. That is why we need to talk to ourselves as a woman so as not to go astray from Allah's word. In the Holy Quran, Surat al-Nisa verse 114, Allah explained to us that women are many and we should use the numerical number for the good of the society.

"In one of Prophet Mohammad (SAW) hadith, he said if you enter a town and the town was prosperous, you should give kudos to the women there and again if the result is otherwise, it is the nature of the women in their society and this shows that we the women in our society have a lot work to do," Amb Ayinde said.

Speaking further, she said what is happening wrongly in our society today is because the women have neglected their role as stipulated by the Holy Quran.

"According to Surat al-Nisa, we must let the society feel our impact like if we see some people that are unable to feed or cater for their well-being, we should try to assist them or solicit from other well meaning people to help them.

"There are so many ways we as a woman can do this because we are the one that knows our husband's pocket and we can easily convince him to help the less privileged because it is one of our obligations stated in Surat al-Nisa we must do.

"It is also our obligation according to the Quran to act as a peace maker whenever we found ourselves and not to be the factor behind such and the blessing will be recieve greatly from God," Amb Ayinde added.

On the role of Muslim women during Ramadan, Amb Ayinde further advised Muslim women to see their rigorous efforts of waking up to prepare food for their family despite their normal daily sheldude as a way of obtaining more blessing and favour from God and should always do things according to means available to us.
