The Death Of Shaykh Qamarudeen Ajala And Lessons We Should All Learn by Lukgaf(op): 8:44am On Jan 24, 2025
Ina Lilah wa ina ilae rojiun. Ustadh Qomorudeen Ajala is dead!

Yesterday, a shocking piece of news broke on our social media space: one of the prominent scholars in Yoruba land, Shaykh Qomorudeen Ajala, passed away right after Maghrib prayer. Amir Ajala as he's fondly called dedicated his life to the cause of Islam and the Sunnah in Yoruba land, especially in Lagos Island, where he made significant contributions.

This morning while praying for him, Shaykh Sharafuddeen Gbadebo Raji shared three outstanding qualities of Shaykh Qomorudeen Ajala, two of which he personally witnessed, and the third reported by many people. These qualities hold powerful lessons for us all.

1. Unshakable Tawakkul (Trust in Allah):
During the clash with traditional worshippers in Lagos then, they took him to their shrine, beat him with charms, and declared that he would die within seven days. Yet, due to his Tawakkul in Allah, nothing happened to him, and he lived many years after the incident.

*LESSON* Let us strive for *taqwa* (consciousness of Allah) and place our trust in Allah. When we rely on Him sincerely, He will protect us from all evils—both seen and unseen.

2. Standing Firm on the Truth
Shaykh Ajala was known for speaking the truth on his television program to the best of his ability. He never compromised the truth and was unafraid of public opinion. He stood by the Qur’an and Sunnah, courageously opposing innovations in Islam.

LESSON: We must live our lives in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah and shun innovations. Speak the truth always, even when it is difficult or affects us personally. Truth is a principle every Muslim should uphold, as Allah commands us in the Qur’an:
"And speak the truth." (Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:70)

3. Humility in Seeking Knowledge

Despite being a respected scholar, Shaykh Ajala was humble enough to admit his limitations. When asked questions about Islam that he was unsure of, he would seek answers from other scholars he deemed more knowledgeable. Shaykh Raji mentioned that Shaykh Ajala asked him a question for someone just a few hours before his death. SubhanAllah!

LESSON: True humility lies in acknowledging our limitations and seeking knowledge from those who know more. Let us not mislead others by pretending to know what we don’t. Also, remember that we do not know when death will come. If Amir Ajala had known his time was near, he may have approached things differently.

Shaykh Qomorudeen Ajala is no longer with us, and he will now be judged based on his deeds. The good things people are saying about him are a testament to his positive impact. But this brings us to a critical question: What will people say about us when our time comes?

Death is inevitable. Whether we like it or not, our turn will come. Are we preparing for that day?

May Allah forgive our dear Shaykh Qomorudeen Ajala, accept his good deeds, and grant him Al-Jannah Al-Firdaus. Ameen.

Uncle Ajala has gone.

Odabo.

He has gone to no where.

When you die everything about you is gone only memory of you remain.

Forget about Jannah or Paradise it is an illusion taking too far.

No, you’re wrong. If he did not die, he would still be with us. When he died, his body remains. What left his body is the soul. That soul came from somewhere. Think about it.

Sarafa Gbadebo who is a clear hypocrite and a kafir that there's so many refutations I've written on him ni you are your own scholar.


If you like yourself and you don't want to dwell on bidiah and manhaj khawarij... stay away from this lugkaf
