An extraordinary gesture unfolded as a Nigerian woman built a mosque in memory of her late husband, Professor Gidado Tahir, in Yola, Adamawa state.
News of this gesture was shared by a relative, Zahra Danejo, on social media on Thursday, August 9.
“My aunt constructed this mosque in Yola as an ongoing charity (Sadaqatul Jariya) in memory of her husband, my late uncle, Professor Gidado Tahir.
“If this isn’t love, then what is? May Allah bless her abundantly… May Allah grant him paradise,” she posted.
