Karnataka Salafi Association-Riaydh holds Dawah programme

Riyadh, Jun 3: An Islamic dawah programme was organised by the Riyadh unit of Karnataka Salafi Association, in association with Bath’ha Dawah Centre recently in Riyadh.

Delivering a public discourse on the topic ‘Life after Death’ at the programme, Basheer Swalahi said that it was not possible to succeed in the Hereafter, by being Muslims merely for namesake. A firm and authentic belief in Islam is the base for the success of worldly life and the Hereafter. Judge yourself before being judged on the day of judgment. It is the responsibility of every Muslim to be a Muslim by choice, rather than by chance, before it is too late, he said.

Shaikh Imran Umari delivered a lecture on the topic ‘Azamath-e-Sahaba’ in Urdu and explained the significance of having love towards the companions of the Prophet.

Explaining the Hadith, he said that love for the companions was part of the Iman. He also pointed out that the companions did not give much thought to the pleasures of the worldly life but worked hard for the betterment of life in the Hereafter.

“However, we Muslims are more fascinated now towards the worldly life and live as if it is permanent. The wrong concept about Tauheed, made us fail to understand the Manhaj of Salaf and live in its standards,” he stressed.

A leaflet on Islam was released during the event. It was for the first time in Saudi Arabia that a leaflet in Kannada was released by the government-recognized Dawa Centre in co-ordination with KSA Riyadh, for the better understanding of Islam by Muslims as well as non-Muslims.

Awards and certificates were distributed to the top-scorers and participants of ‘Learn the Quran’ competition which was conducted in April.

The programme commenced with the recitation of Quranic verses by Hafiz Imran, followed by the translation of the same by Imran Poonjalkatte. Talks were arranged in Urdu and Malayalam languages, especially for the people from coastal Karnataka.

Kabeer Kajoor conducted the award ceremony. Azzam Kalai compered the programme and Hamza Ullal proposed the vote of thanks.

Prominent NRI community leader SM Syed Khalilur Rehman, fondly known as CA Khalil, passed away in Dubai on Thursday at the age of 86 after a brief illness.

Khalil had been admitted to Aster Hospital in Mankhool on Tuesday after experiencing severe leg weakness. Despite the best efforts of the medical team, he succumbed to a double heart attack that worsened his condition, his son Rais Ahmed confirmed.

The news of his passing has sent waves of grief across communities, particularly in his hometown of Bhatkal, Karnataka, where he was a celebrated figure. Tributes have been pouring in on social media, highlighting his significant contributions to international trade, social service, and education.

A Legacy of Leadership and Service

A chartered accountant by profession, Khalil was a founding member of the Dubai chapter of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), where he served as chairman from 1987 to 1994. His illustrious career included key leadership roles, such as general manager of Khaleej Times, group executive director of the Ilyas and Mustafa Galadari Group, and vice-chairman of the Jashanmal Group of Companies.

He also chaired Maadhyama Communications and Sahil Online, a web-based news platform, and was a director and trustee of several media companies and charitable organisations in Dubai and India.

A Champion for Education and Philanthropy

Khalil’s impact extended far beyond his professional achievements. As president and general secretary of Anjuman Hami-e-Muslimeen, he played a pivotal role in the development of educational institutions, including schools and colleges in Bhatkal and surrounding areas. His dedication to social upliftment earned him recognition from the Government of Karnataka, which honoured him with a prestigious award for his philanthropic contributions.

A Life Celebrated

The Bhatkal Muslim Khaleej Council (BMKC) recently released a documentary celebrating Khalil’s remarkable life and service to the community—a testament to his enduring legacy.

CA Khalil is survived by his family and countless admirers across the globe. His passing marks the end of an era for Indian expatriates in the UAE and beyond, leaving behind a legacy of leadership, generosity, and commitment to community service.
