As-Salam ‘Alaykum
Dear Imams,
We are deeply sad to announce the passing of our Mafoloku Branch Missioner, Imam Noah Abdul-Kareem.
He died in a fatal road accident while going to Asalatu this morning.
His corpse is at Akinpelu Police Station, Oshodi. We are aware that the branch, some NAṢFAT Missioners and some members of the family of the deceased are making efforts to secure the release of the corpse from the station.
We urge all the missioners who live in places close to Oshodi to join the family at the station and give support where necessary till the Imam is buried according to Islamic rites.
We were all impressed by the sterling performance of the deceased when he led Adhkār at the Tahajjud programme of the Headquarters held just two days ago. It is painful to know that such a talented Imam is gone so early in life.
May Allah accept the return of our brother, forgive him and grant his bereaved family the fortitude to bear this painful but unavoidable loss.
