Reflections & Lessons from the Life of Hazrat Maulana Haroon Abasoomar Rah


Special Programme, at Durban on June 4, 2020


Each one of the Ulama who depart from this world is a light being extinguished, plunging us into more darkness, ‘Mautul Aalim, Mautul Aalam’! The demise of Maulana Haroon Abasoomar (R) is indeed a great loss for the Ulama, and the Ummah. Maulana (R) studied Deen at the feet of great Ulama, completing Hifz under Hafiz Abdur Rahman Mia (R) and graduating with 1st position in the Wifaqul Madaris exam from Newtown Madrasah, Karachi. Maulana (R) then returned to South Africa and continued serving the Deen, in a rare display of Istiqamah (steadfastness) serving as Imam of Isipingo Beach Masjid for 43 years, as the Shaikhul Hadith of Madrasah Taleemuddin, Madrasah In’aamiyyah and Madrasah Hameediyyah, and as an Ustadh of primary Maktab! Maulana (R) fulfilled various roles in the Jamiatul Ulama KZN, and was the founder of ‘Darul Hadith’ - a specialist institution in the field of Hadith research and authenticity. Maulana (R) was Jaamius Sifaat and Jaamiul Kamaalaat – one of many attributes, capabilities and services of Deen. It is most important to learn from the example of the pious, take inspiration from them, and imbibe their attributes. The glimpses from his life show Maulana Haroon’s (R) amazing qualities and beautiful character, in perfect emulation of the Sunnah. The loss of such a great Aalim and personality has left behind a vacuum. May Allah Ta'ala grant us Taufiq to follow in the footsteps of these pious elders. Aameen
