that has surfaced on social media with a Muslim Cleric plainly stating that he cannot pray for late Nigerian actor, Murphy Afolabi\u2019s soul.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is Muslim belief to pray for the soul of the departed to earn him\/her favour. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><a

collapsed and died after a brief illness on Sunday morning, May 14 was well loved in and out of the Nollywood industry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A Muslim cleric in the now viral video reacting to the late actor\u2019s death and an alleged plea from people that he prays for the departed\u2019s soul, said he can\u2019t pray for Murphy despite being a Muslim. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Cleric said although Murphy Afolabi was a Muslim, he played herbalist roles, carried sacrifices and used incantations which cannot be overlooked. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Alfa added that despite the fact that the actor was simply playing a role, it is against his religion. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Reacting to his reason, actors like <a

Do2dtun<\/a>, amongst others knocked the Cleric for his beliefs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Some others however stated that the Cleric took the right approach as it is forbidden in Islam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Watch the Alfa speak and reactions that followed below:<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 1500px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video
