Default 135 Year Old Muslim Scholar passes away in Makkah Today
إنا لله وإنا اليه راجعون
It is with great sadness that we inform you that one of our elders and Shouyoukh has passed into the mercy of Allah. Shaikh Mohammed Nadir al-Arkani al-Makki (RA) was born in the year 1297 AH and passed away within the last few hours of today at the grand age of 135

Shaikh (RA) studied and narrated from numerous famous scholars in the Muslim World as he stated to many of those who visited him. Some of them were:

Shaikh al-Muhadith Mohammed Anwar Shah Kashmiri (RA)

Shaikh al-Muhadith Mohammed Yahya Kandhalawi (RA)

Shaikh al-Muhadith Husain Ahmed Madani (RA)

Shaikh al-Muhadith Ashraf Ali Thanwi (RA)

His Janazah was conducted at Asar Prayer in the holiest Mosque and House of Allah the Ka'bah al-Musharafa.

اللهم اغفر له وارحمه وعافه واعف عنه وأكرم نزله ووسع مدخله واغسله بالماء والثلج والبرد ونقه من الخطايا كما ينقى الثوب الأبيض من الدنس اللهم أبدله دارا خيرا من داره وأهلا خيرا من أهله اللهم أدخله الجنة وأعذه من عذاب القبر ومن عذاب النار
With his (RA) passing another bright star of the Islamic world fades.

Our Beloved (salahu alayhi wasalam) said in a Hadith that is agreed upon:

إن الله لا يقبض العلم انتزاعا ينتزعه من العباد، ولكن يقبض العلم بقبض العلماء، حتى إذا لم يبق عالما، اتخذ الناس رؤوسا جهالا، فسئلوا، فأفتوا بغير علم، فضلوا وأضلوا

“Indeed, Allah does not take away knowledge by snatching it from the people but He takes away knowledge by taking away the scholars, until there remains no scholar and the people take the ignorant as their leaders. Then they are asked and give religious judgments without knowledge, they go astray and cause other to go astray.”
