Bimiafashion: DR. SHAYKH MUHAMMAD KAMALUD-DEEN HABEEBULLAH AL-ADABY
His Eminence Dr. Shaykh Muhammad Kamalud-deen Habeebullah Al-Adaby was born into the family of Mallam Habeebullah Musa in 1905. He began his Qur'anic Education at early age in Ile Babaita, Alore, Ilorin under respected Mallams Ahmad Tijani and Late Salahud-deen and graduated in 1919. He later proceeded to the school of the popular Shaykh Mahammad Jamiu Alabi Tajul-Adab at Ile Imam Imale, Masingba- Omoda, Ilorin, in the same year. He was the most hard-working and the most beloved of the pupils of Shaykh Tajul-Adab who gave him his first title "Kamalud-deen". He remained a pupil of his teacher just for a period of three years when the latter died. He began public lecture under the tutelage of his master Shaykh Tajul-Adab. His first place of public lecture was at Ihumbo in the Republic of Benin. His master Shaykh Tajul- Adab died in 1922. The sage continued to build on the work of his master by teaching and propagating Islamic doctrines through public lectures. He established his first Az- Zumratul Al-Adabiyyah Arabic and Islamiyyah School in Lagos in 1928. The Ilorin Branch of the School was established in 1930. He founded Ansarul Islam Society of Nigeria and abroad on 28th May, 1942 which was the first of its kind in Northern Nigeria. He established the first primary school of the society in Ilorin in 1947. At present, there are over two hundred of such schools spread across Nigeria and some neighboring West African countries like Republic of Benin, Togo and Ghana. There are also over two hundred branches of the Ansarul Islam Society in Nigeria. The first Secondary School of the Society was established at Ijomu-Oro in 1970, closely followed by that of Ilorin in 1971. Today, Ansarul Islam Society has about seventeen Secondary Schools in Nigeria. Shaykh Kamalud-deen's visit to Cairo, Egyptin 1962 yielded the establishment of Al-Azhary Institute of Arabic and Islamic Studies (Al- Mahd Al-Azhary) in Ilorin 1963. To cap his efforts in providing Higher Education in Nigeria, the first phase of the Society's university was launched in ilorin on 19th January, 2003. Work has reached advanced stage in the construction of buildings that will serve the University for Academic and Administrative purposes at its permanent site, Ogidi, Ilorin. Shaykh Kamalud-deen was the Chairman of Ilorin Central Mosque Management Committee that successfully oversees the construction of the new Ilorin Central Juma'at Mosque that was officially commissioned by PresidentShehu Shagari in 1981. Awards The sage received awards and honours from within and abroad in recognition of his "distinguished international Islamic contributions to the development of scholarship and ... advancement of mankind". Firstly, he got MFR (1963), OFR (1981) from the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Kwara State Merit Award (1988), ORSA (1992) award from the Egyptian Government and D. Litt. (1998) from University of Ilorin. Similarly, the Nigeria Association of Teachers of Arabic and Islamic Studies (NATAIS) awarded the Shaykh a "Fellowship in Islamic Studies, Nigeria" (FISN) in 2002 in appreciation of his outstanding contributions to the service of Islam. Now, HRH, the Emir of Ilorin, Mai Martaba (Alhaji) (Dr.) Ibrahim Sulu Karnaini Gambari awarded the genius the first Grand Mufti of Ilorin (2005).

May Allah's accept all his contributions towards Islamic propagation and service to humanity and grand him Aljanat firidaus Amin

TheRareGem1: After years of untold hardship and deaths, sanity yesterday returned to Apapa, a once thriving port city brought to its knees by protracted traffic gridlock. This followed the take off of the electronic call-up system (ETO) introduced by the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA).
Apapa had in the past several years defied effort to solve its traffic problem. The efforts, including a presidential task team, were blighted by corruption.
However, normalcy returned to Apapa following the removal of trucks that littered the port access roads – Apapa Oshodi Express Way and Western Avenue leading to Ijora.
When THISDAY visited both ends of the port access roads yesterday, officials of the Lagos State government and NPA taskforce teams were seen with tow vehicles well positioned to remove erring trucks.
This is the first time that electronic call-up would be deployed to direct truck movement into ports in Lagos.
This automated process, known as Eto App, is expected to permanently restore sanity within the Apapa port corridor by removing the daily traffic congestion, if properly managed
Meanwhile, port users, operators and Apapa residents were elated by the development. They called on NPA to ensure that the effort was sustained.
A resident, Mr. Chukwuma Vincent, said, “If you have been to Apapa in the past you will know what I am talking about. Our businesses went down, property lost value and people were dying.
“We call on NPA to sustain this. I drove through to my house for the first time in many years and I cried. I thought we had no government in Nigeria again. This is worth celebrating and I can only hope it lasts.”
Importers, clearing agents and truck owners also expressed optimism as the electronic call-up system began yesterday. They called for a functional holding bay by shipping companies for return of empty containers.
NPA had late last year announced the launch of Eto, an Electronic Truck call-up system designed for the management of truck movement and access to and from the Lagos Ports Complex and the Tin Can Island Ports, Apapa, Lagos. The authority said all trucks doing business at the ports would be required to park at the approved truck parks until they were called up into the port through the Eto app. NPA explained that the Eto app will be responsible for the scheduling, entry and exit of all trucks from the ports with effect from February 27. It also stated that about 7,000 trucks had been certified fit for the digitalised call up system, revealing that effective February 27, trucks must approach the ports from a holding bay or truck parks with a bar code to access the ports.
Stakeholders were optimistic that the electronic call-up system would end corruption in the port access management system.
Vice Chairman, National Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO), Dry Cargo section, Alhaji Abdullahi Inuwa, said the call-up system would end artificial bottlenecks on the port access roads. However, National Vice President, Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA), Kayode Farinto, said unless the port access roads were fixed it might not yet be uhuru.
According to Inuwa, “I call on all stakeholders to cooperate and allow it work. If that happens, then we will get good result. Actually, if it takes off successfully, it will eradicate corruption, no human contact and other artificial bottleneck. NARTO wishes the authority a successful take-off.
The motive is to take trucks off the roads, but NPA should involve other garages where trucks are parked in order to successfully decongest the roads.”
Farinto urged the NPA management to be steadfast in enforcing the call-up system. He said the on-going construction of the Oshodi-Apapa expressway must also be completed in good time because there cannot be an effective call-up system without a good road.
“The road should be put in adequate place because there is nothing the call-up can achieve without a proper port access road, ” he said.
Farinto, a former chairman, Tin-Can Island chapter of ANLCA, said shipping companies must be compelled to have functional holding bay for return of empty containers.
According to him, “Shipping companies should put up a holding bay for empty containers because without an efficient holding bay, is there a way the policy can be achieved?
“NPA should also decisively take over the system and prevent the security agencies from hijacking it. They must totally remove human contact but how to achieve that I still don’t know because Terminal Delivery Order (TDO) will still be generated manually
“Also, there is nothing on ground to show that it will be electronic. Human contact must be completely eliminated because what is happening on the port access roads is an eyesore that is giving stakeholders sleepless nights.”
