Professor Dr Mohammad Jahangir, the newly elected amir of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami’s Rajshahi city unit, has visited the grave of the late Ataur Rahman, a former amir of the city unit.
He visited the grave with city Jamaat leaders at about 6:30am on Monday, 9 November. Prayers were offered for the departed soul.
After the visit, Jahangir said: “During his time leading Rajshahi city Jamaat, the late Ataur Rahman made an important contribution to the organisation’s progress. His organisational skill, dedication, sacrifice and ideals will remain an example for leaders and workers. Holding on to the ideals and sense of responsibility he left behind, we must make the organisation’s work more dynamic and more united.”
“Responsibilities may change, but the commitment to work on the path of the faith and the continuity of its ideals must remain unbroken,” he said. “His contribution will remain an inspiration for a new generation of leaders and workers.”
City Jamaat leaders shared memories of Ataur Rahman’s life and recalled his contribution to the organisation with respect. Prayers were then offered for his soul.
Assistant secretaries of the city Jamaat Mahbubul Ahsan Bulbul and Shahadat Hossain, and training secretary Hafez Nuruzzaman, were among the party leaders present.
