Abstract: It is a common human experience that everyone wants their deepest desires to be met and their anguish to be eased. This universal need is the source of well-known spiritual movements and their evolution (Albert Einstein 1930, pp. 1-4). In the past, homoeopathic magic helped to relieve people's suffering and anxiety. The ancient people turned themselves in to the monks and priests for magical power and direction to lead a better life free from physical and mental pain since they were dissatisfied with the outcomes of sorcerers. This caste of priests conjured up imaginary creatures that the regular people might sacrifice to appease the gods (Sir James George Frazer, 1922). Today's political elites and the clerical caste are abusing religion to further their own agendas. This essay attempts to concentrate on how Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's book Half of a Yellow Sun depicts how religious ideas in modern society have choked and complicated human love and relationships. While Half of a Yellow Sun's main goal is to remind people of the famine, suffering, killings, and mass slaughter that occurred during the Nigerian civil war—also referred to by the author as the Biafra war—it also shows how human relationships and love underwent significant changes during this time. In actuality, the novel's other themes are subverted and pushed back by the subject of human love and relationships. In order to make the story universal, the author has infused the relationships between various characters with a great deal of color and passion. In the narrative, religion subtly introduces friction into the relationships between the various ethnic groups. But during times of conflict, the rulers and religious fanatics exact their price in the form of bloodshed and hate. The religion card exacerbates the severity of Nigeria's civil war, which is being waged between the Hausa Muslims in the north and the Igbo Christians in the southwest. Therefore, in order to comprehend how the religious views of the Hausa Muslims and the Igbo Christians stood in the way of their love and relationship, one must be aware of the historical context and the reasons for the battle.
Keywords: Igbo Christians, Hausa Muslims, Biafra, Human love, Civil war
