The Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, on Saturday spark up a serious backlash on social media after posting a video on Twitter which some of his followers considered disrespectful to Islam.
Davido is being faced with serious backlash for His new video which he featured a scene that has to do with Islam. The video, which many Muslim commentators described as offensive, showed a group of men dressed for, and ostensibly in, a Muslim prayer session suddenly turned to dancing and singing.
The reactions that proceeded were scathing, as some Dogma deemed it an offence to the Islam religion from the Music Artist.
Bashir Ahmad @BashirAhmaad, a former aide to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, said: There are many reasons why every Muslim finds this content absolutely disrespectful, painful and offensive @davido. “I assume you all know that we Muslims don’t mix our religion with jokes in any way, especially Salah (prayer), which is sacred and the second of the five pillars of Islam.
“In Salah, Muslims remember our Lord, Allah, express our love and respect for Him and invoke and strive to express our gratitude towards Him. The notion is that the Salah activity brings the individual face-to-face with God.
“That is what we believe, and that is our faith. Please respect it. No Muslim will find it as an honor or acceptable. Watch video

You all know Muslim doesn’t mix jokes and ridicule into religion but you keep finding a way to deride Islamic religious practice. You have millions of contents to make up for your video why most you bring Islam into it. This music video is all shades of WRONG!!!
@the_scholar1: The height of this ignorance and disrespect, this is unacceptable to the Muslim community. Please take it down and have some respect for the Muslim
