My nomination would be our beloved and amazing uncle Adam Bodiat. He is the muazzin at Omar Farouk masjid in extension 8 and has been for years
His beautiful azaan wakes up, breaks our fast, reminds us of our duties, and brings a smile to our face. The minute he’s not around, the community knows it. We know, he’s away or he is ill
We miss him dearly this past few weeks as he is ill undergoing a procedure. May Allah grant him ease and shifah with aafiyah inshallah.
He is on time, with his health challenges, and his walking stick, to call us to prayer He always has a smile on his face His bright blue eyes brightens anyone’s day
He is my 2nd father as I grew up with him. He faced so many challenges in life and still makes a person feel worthy
May Allah grant him this opportunity inshallah
Your consideration will be highly appreciated
