The Muslim Media Watch Group of Nigeria has expressed condolences over the tragic death of Salmat Idowu Sulaiman which occurred in Abuja.
Salmat was a Principal Accountant with NTA Channel 5, Abuja who got involved in a terrible train accident in Abuja. As a Muslim, she was buried in a Janazat ( Burial) Prayer.
Hajia Salmat left behind four children and her husband.
The Muslim Media Watch Group of Nigeria sympathizes with The Abuja Muslim Forum (AMF), The Family, Friends, Colleagues, and the NTA Family over this tragic and sudden demise of Mrs Sulaiman whom everyone described as a quiet, easy-going, and kind woman.
Ibrahim Abdullahi, National Coordinator, Muslim Media Watch Group of Nigeria in a statement said: “Death is sufficient as an admonition to ‘doubting thomases’ in that no one knows when it will come, where it will come, the nature it would take and the place one will be finally buried! Therefore, when it occurs suddenly this way, wise men and women – young and old take this opportunity to ponder and reflect deeply by asking – supposing it is me, which way have I prepared to meet My Lord who in His Glorious Qur’an warned us against many things and enjoined on us many things? This part of the superiority of Allah over us! No matter what you are, He has hidden the answers to these questions for everybody!”
Death is Real – therefore we should be prepared daily as there will be no ‘second chance’ once we have departed.”
