  "summary": "The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) is organizing a national prayer for peace, stability, and progress in Nigeria on September 30, 2026, at the Abuja National Mosque Complex. Convened by the President-General of the NSCIA and the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar, the prayer aims to seek Allah's guidance, protection, peace, and blessings for the country and its citizens. The event will be followed by the NSCIA General Assembly on October 1, which will serve as a platform for consultation, reflection, and the consideration of issues affecting the council, the Muslim Ummah, and the nation at large. The General Assembly will be attended by various Muslim public office holders, representatives of the 36 State Councils for Islamic Affairs, and prominent Muslim personalities from across Nigeria. The NSCIA emphasizes its commitment to promoting unity among Muslims, fostering peaceful coexistence, and supporting efforts towards the stability and progress of Nigeria.",
