Lagos, Nigeria – January 24, 2025
Indeed to Allah We Belong and To Him We Shall return,
The Muslim Congress joins the rest of the Muslim community in mourning the passing of Amir Qamardeen Ajala, a renowned Islamic scholar and leader, who departed this world on the evening of Thursday, 23rd January. His demise is a devastating blow to the Muslim community, particularly in the southwest, coming just over a month after the loss of Sheikh Muhydeen Bello. This double tragedy is a bitter pill to swallow, leaving the community to grapple with the immense void left by these two iconic figures.
Amir Ajala was a pillar of strength in the Muslim community, known for his exceptional leadership, humility, and unwavering commitment to the Islamic cause. His contributions to Islamic scholarship, education, and community development have had a profound impact on countless lives, both within Nigeria and beyond.
The Muslim community will deeply feel the loss of Amir Ajala, whose invaluable contributions and steadfast advocacy for Islam have left an indelible mark. His passing is a tremendous loss, and the community will continue to draw inspiration from his remarkable legacy.
In tribute to this illustrious Islamic icon, we invite the Muslim community, particularly in Lagos, to honour his memory by offering special prayers for his soul. May Allah forgive Amir Ajala, elevate his station among the righteous, and grant him eternal peace.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and associates of Amir Ajala during this difficult time. May Allah comfort them and grant them the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.
We pray Allah accept his contributions to the Islamic cause and grant him a place among the righteous. May his grave be a sanctuary of peace and comfort for him. Ameen.
Alaahum-maghfir lahu Warhamhu wa ‘aafihi, Wa’fu ‘anhu… (O Allah, forgive him, and have mercy on him and give him strength and pardon him…)
Alhaji AbdulWasi’I Taiwo Bangbala,
Amir, The Muslim Congress.
