Shekau begs Allah for protection from 'devilish act' of Nigerian Army

The leader of the Boko Haram terrorist group, Abubakar Shekau has prayed to Allah to protect him and his men from the onslaught of the Nigerian Army.

In an audio recording which has gone viral, Shekau could be heard begging for strength to remain firm in his religion.

He also prayed for mercy during the Ramadan fasting period as he reveals the sacrifices he and his men have taken for their course.

He said, “If it is the devilish act and wickedness [of the Nigerian military], may Allah protect us from their evil. Oh Allah, keep us firm on your religion. We are poor things who know nothing, oh our Lord, Allah.

“We deserted Izala people to practice Your true religion; we abandoned Tijjaniyya people to practice your true religion; we deserted the Shiites to practice your true religion; we forsook our parents, uncles and aunties to practice Your true religion.

“It is because of your religion that we placed a knife on Your servants’ necks; but today, they are trying to change us from one thing to another. Oh Lord, have mercy upon us during Ramadan; Oh Lord, have mercy on under the blessings of Ramadan.

“Oh Allah, give us victory over our enemies. Oh brothers, for Allah’s sake, obey Allah and help me with prayers. This does not mean I am angry.”
