With words of gratitude, “Alhamdulillah Rabil alameen,” the Chief Imam, Sheikh Dr. Ishola Toheeb, reflects on the events of that day via his official Facebook page, @Toheeb Ishola, acknowledging the divine protection that shielded them from a potentially grave danger. The imam, tasked with delivering the khutbah, stood upon the mimbar, unaware of the danger lurking beside him.
In the Facebook post, he disclosed that the congregation listened attentively to his sermon for over an hour, completely unaware of the silent observer above. As the prayers concluded and the dua was offered, the snake finally made its presence known, emerging from its hiding place. With swift action and divine protection, the congregation remained unharmed as the snake was swiftly dealt with.
This incident serves as a reminder of the ever-watchful eye of Allah and the importance of gratitude for His protection. In the face of unexpected challenges, communities persevere through faith and unity.
