    Muslim lawyers in the nation's capital

    The FCT Abuja Branch of the Muslim Lawyers' Association of Nigeria (MULAN) unites Muslim legal practitioners in the Federal Capital Territory.

    Who we are

    MULAN FCT Abuja Branch is the Abuja home of the Muslim Lawyers' Association of Nigeria. Our members practise across the courts, chambers, ministries, agencies, academia and the corporate sector of the Federal Capital Territory.

    We meet every month at the National Mosque Auditorium, mark Ramadan together through Iftar, Special Aid and Ziyarah, celebrate the achievements of our members, and stand with them in times of loss.

    Our motto, taken from the Qur'an, is a daily reminder of the trust we carry as lawyers: Allah is the best of judges.

    Founding year and history. To be confirmed A short history of the Branch, its founding members and past Chairmen will be added here once the Secretariat confirms the records.
