Esteemed scholar Ml Sulaiman Moola has raised concerns about the delaying of janazas, nikkah and functions.

Ml Moola was speaking during the 11th annual Seerah Jalsah at the Nurul Islam Masjid in Lenasia.

Quoting a narration, the renowned scholar says procrastination of janazas, nikkah and functions causes a lot of pain.

“What does he write? We are having a function at 1pm, that’s the reception. You’ve been invited and then you come late for the meeting, for the event, for the jalsah, for the walimah. This type of infliction has become the norm; leave the regular and the ordinary.”

Ml Moola says the most learned of scholars, wise and intellectual of people are guilty of inflicting pain on other because of delays.
