In Wase federal constituency, the distribution of fuel to mosques conducting Quranic Tafseer sessions during the holy month of Ramadan has become an annual tradition. This initiative is spearheaded by a committee led by Alhaji Abdullahi Musa, (Danburam Nyalun) under the guidance of RT Hon Ahmed Idris Wase CON. The aim is to support and facilitate the smooth organization of these sessions in over 200 participating mosques across the four districts of Wase.
Ramadan holds great significance for Muslims worldwide, as they observe fasting, prayer, and reflection during this sacred month. Quranic interpretation sessions, known as Tafsir, are an integral part of Ramadan activities. These sessions are held in mosques, providing an opportunity for worshippers to deepen their understanding of the holy Quran.
Recognizing the importance of Tafsir sessions and the logistical challenges faced by mosques in organizing them, RT Hon Ahmed Idris Wase CON initiated the annual fuel distribution to mosques in Wase District. This distribution aims to assist mosques in powering generators or other electrical equipment necessary for the smooth conduct of Tafsir sessions, particularly during the evening hours.
Under the leadership of Alhaji Abdullahi Musa, the committee responsible for the distribution ensures that each participating mosque receives an allocation of 20 liters of fuel in a jerrican. This quantity is carefully determined to meet the average fuel requirements of mosques during the month of Ramadan, considering the duration and frequency of Tafsir sessions.
The committee identifies and verifies the participating mosques across the four districts of Wase, ensuring fair and equitable distribution. The selection process is transparent, and measures are taken to prevent biases or favoritism. Mosques willing to conduct Tafsir sessions and meeting certain criteria set by the committee are eligible for the fuel allocation.
The annual fuel distribution has a significant impact on the mosques and the local community in Wase District. It relieves the financial burden on the mosques, as they no longer need to bear the entire cost of fuel for their generators. This initiative allows mosques to allocate their resources towards other essential needs, such as maintenance, community outreach, and charitable activities during Ramadan.
Furthermore, the availability of fuel ensures an uninterrupted power supply during Tafsir sessions, providing a conducive environment for worshippers to engage in spiritual reflection and learning. This initiative enhances the overall Ramadan experience for the community, fostering a sense of unity and devotion.
Remark by the chairman of the committee, Alhaji Abdullahi Musa (Danburam “The annual distribution of fuel to mosques hosting Tafsir sessions during the blessed month of Ramadan is a longstanding tradition in our community. Through the generous support of our honorable representative, Rt Hon Ahmed Idris Wase CON, we are able to ensure that these sacred gatherings can take place without interruption.
The Tafsir sessions play a vital role in deepening our understanding of the holy Quran and strengthening our faith during this spiritual journey. However, organizing these sessions requires resources, and the cost of fuel can be a burden for some of our mosques.
By providing an allocation of 20 liters of fuel to each participating mosque, we aim to alleviate this financial strain and allow them to focus on creating a conducive environment for worshippers to engage in reflection and learning.
Our committee works tirelessly to ensure a fair and transparent distribution process, identifying and verifying the mosques across the four districts of Wase. We strive to prevent any biases or favoritism, as our goal is to serve the entire community without discrimination.
This initiative is a testament to the spirit of unity and cooperation that exists within our community. It is heartening to see how we come together to support one another during this blessed month, fostering a sense of belonging and devotion.
On behalf of the committee, I would like to express our gratitude to RT Hon Ahmed Idris Wase CON for his unwavering commitment to this cause. His leadership and generosity have made it possible for us to enhance the Ramadan experience for our fellow citizens.
We look forward to continuing this tradition and ensuring that the sacred Tafsir sessions remain a cherished part of our Ramadan observance for years to come.”
