CONDOLENCE MESSAGE
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un (Verily, we belong to Allah, and to Him, we shall return) – Quran 2:156 His Eminence the Mufti of Uganda extends his heartfelt condolences to the Muslim World League (MWL), the entire Muslim Ummah, and the family of the late Dr. Abdullah Omar Naseef, former Secretary-General of the MWL and Deputy Chairman of the Saudi Shoura Council, who passed away at the age of 86. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, “The death of a scholar is a loss for Islam.” Dr. Naseef’s passing is a significant loss for the Muslim world, and we pray that Allah grants him mercy and peace. We remember Dr. Naseef’s tireless efforts in promoting Islamic values, education, and humanitarian causes. His contributions to the Muslim World League, the International Islamic Relief Organization, and the World Muslim Congress are a testament to his dedication and vision. As Chairman of the University Council at Islamic University in Uganda (IUIU), Dr. Naseef played a pivotal role in shaping the institution’s future. His wisdom, balance, and noble character inspired many. To the Muslim World League and the entire Muslim Ummah, we offer our deepest sympathies and prayers. May Allah give you patience and strength during this challenging time. May Allah grant Dr. Naseef a high rank in Jannah and comfort his loved ones during this difficult time. Ameen. May the blessings of Allah be upon him and his family. His Eminence, Sheikh Dr Shaban Ramadhan Mubaje Mufti of Uganda
