CITIZENS COMPASS –The Sultan of Sokoto and Leader of Muslim Ummah of Nigeria, His Eminence Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, CFR, mni, yesterday, expressed his condolences on the passing of Shaikh Muhydeen Ajani Bello, Nigeria’s renowned Islamic preacher and Missioner, many decades, for Kano State Branch of Ansar-Ud-Deen Society of Nigeria.
Sheikh Bello died morning of Friday December 6, 2024 and has since been buried in his home town of Ibadan, capital of Oyo State, South West Nigeria.
The Sultan, who described the late Islamic cleric as preacher with good conscience and character, said although his passing came with shock especially at a time that his kind of Islamic preaching is required for building the nation through moral reconstruction and spiritual guidance, “we have no option than to accept demise of the great Islamic preacher and scholar as a natural call by Allah.”
According to the Sultan, “the absence of Shaikh Muhydeen Ajani Bello is a loss to the Muslim Ummah of Nigeria especially the Muslim Ummah of South West Nigeria and Oyo State Muslim community.
“May Allah forgive his shortcomings, accept his good deeds as acts of worship and repose his soul in Al-Jannah Firdaus, Amiin,” the Sultan prayed.
