THERE is no limit to the worship of God and performance of virtuous, good deeds, especially on account of old age as Almighty Allah requires His obedient servants to remain conscious of Him up to the moment they draw their last breath.
These were words of the acting Chief Imam of Ansar-Ud-Deen Society of Nigeria (ADS) in Afin Akoko, Ondo State, Sheikh Hamidu Fasasi, during the eighth edition of the annual Maulud Nabiyy instituted by a centenarian and the head of the ulama of Afin Akoko Muslim community, Alhaji Kilani Aderibigbe Balogun.
Sheikh Fasasi described Alhaji Kilani Balogun as a role model and a highly religious man who, despite his old age, had never relented in using his wealth and strength for the propagation of Islam.
The cleric urged other elderly persons to take a cue from the exemplary lifestyle of the centenarian.
In a goodwill message, royal father of the day, the Olubaka of Okaland, Oba Yusuf Adeleye, who was represented by the National Organising Secretary of the ADS, Alhaji Ibrahim Kilani, commended Alhaji Kilani Balogun for handing down such a worthwhile legacy for his children and members of the younger generation.
In a remark, Alhaji Kilani Balogun, noted that he conceived the idea to institute the Maulud Nabiyy ceremony eight years ago.
