JIBWIS Imam, Sheikh Umar Maigona dies in Makkah, after Hajj
Say, “The death you are running away from will inevitably come to you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the seen and unseen, and He will inform you of what you used to do.” Quran 62:8

Popular Islamic scholar and member of Gombe State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board, Sheikh Abdulrahman Umar Maigona, has died in Makkah, Saudi Arabia after the conclusion of 2022 Hajj exercise.

Maigona, the Chief Imam of JIBWIS Masjid NO. 8, Gombe, returned to Allah on Wednesday, July 13, at the Namma Muwada Hotel, after a brief illness.

The Head of National Hajj Commission (NAHCON) Medical Team Dr Usman Shua’ibu Galadima, who confirmed the development said Sheikh Maigona was brought in around 1pm and immediately attended to.

According to him, his situation aggravated and in a bid to arrest his worsening health situation, he gave up.

Galadima said the deceased had once visited the clinic and was treated for another ailment.

According to an eyewitness, the Islamic scholar proclaimed Khalimah Shahadah (Laila Islamic lahu – There’s no God except Allah) before he gave up.

The late Sheikh Maigona’s remains have been taken to Masjid Haram for Janazah and interment.

The deceased was until his death, a lecturer with the Department of Islamic Studies, Gombe State University and chief Imam of Izala mosque.

The 48-year-old renowned Muslim scholar was a close associate of the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Prof Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami.

Maigona is the the third pilgrim that has died during the 2022 Hajj operations.
Hajiya Aisha Ahmed from Keffi in Nasarawa state died on June 29, after a brief illness and was buried in Makka, while Hajiya Hasiya Aminu from Zaria, Kaduna State died on Arafat Day on July 8 shortly after returning to her tent from Arafat.
We pray to Allah (S.W.T) to forgive his shortcomings and admit his soul in Aljannatil Firdausi. Ameen Ya Rab.
