Emir of Kano approves Jumaat Mosque for NASFAT

It was reported and circulated that Professor Abdallah Saleh Pakistan got injured while delivering a sermon last Friday. Here is what happened;

 

He was at the Mosque a few minutes after one o’clock. He perfectly and energetically delivered the first part of the sermon which is usually in Arabic and later translated to Hausa for the benefit of the majority of the worshipers.

 

While translating the sermon a few minutes after, he quickly steps down and hands over the microphone to Imam Ali Ali Abubakar.

 

Imam Ali Ali Abubakar led the two Raka’at and explained to the worshipers that it was not a serious issue therefore people should not worry about what happened, it was normal before and during prayers.

 

Sources close to the Imam reveals that he was not injured nor attacked rather a sudden stomach disruption and he is now in normal condition.

 

He is currently attending a meeting with the delegation of JIBWIS discussing issues of propagating Islam.

 

The statement urges the Muslim community in Kano and Nigeria in general to disregard the rumour.
