THE FEDERATION MOURNS THE DEATH OF SYED MUHAMMAD BAQIR AL HAKIM - NAJAF
DEATH OF AN ALIM IS THE DEATH OF THE WORLD

The Africa Federation has learnt with shock and grief the sad news of the death of Syed Muhammad Baqir Al Hakim son of the late Ayatullah Syed Mushsin Al Hakim (Marjah before Ayatullah Al Khui),  in a car bomb that exploded outside the Haram of Imam Ali (A.S) in Najaf on Friday 29^th August 2003 (Rajab 01, 1424). 

The Africa Federation extends its heartfelt condolences to the family of the Marhum and the Shia Community at large on this bereavement. 

We pray to Allah (s.w.t.) to grant Marhum maghferat and place his soul in the proximity of Chaharda Masumeen (a.s.), grant his family solace to sustain this loss and for the safety of our Ulema and Mumineen in Iraq. Amen. 

Jamaats are requested to observe three days of Mourning and arrange for Quran Khani and majlis for the maghferat of the Marhoom. 

Let us recite a Sura-e- Fateha for the Marhum.
