Remembering Marhum Akbarali Rajmohamed

Updated 23 April 2014

Marhum Akbarbhai Rajmohamed passed away and buried in Allentown, Pennsylvania, on April 6, 2014.

Marhum Akbarbhai Rajmohamed was one of the founding members of the Allentown Jamaat over 40 years ago. He was born in Uganda in 1931 and went to India for further education. He returned to Uganda where he opened his first general merchandise store in a town called Jeza. A few years later, he opened another store in Masindi.

In Uganda, Akbarbhai was involved with the Jami-ul-Muslimeen Anjuman, an organization of Muslim communities in Uganda. He served as the Zaakir for the Jamaat of Masindi before the Resident Alim. He was a member of the Lion's Club and participated in local sports. In 1972, Akberbhai and his family left Uganda, with the help of the Red Cross, to Europe before migrating to the US.

Marhum Akbarbhai also had the honor of serving as the first President of the SIJPA Jamaat. He will be greatly missed.

Please recite Sura-E-Fateha for Marhum Akberbhai Rajmohamed.
