A Full Life on the Path

[From the French language press]:

Il a connu une vie bien remplie sur la voie tracée par son vénéré grand-père, Cheikhna Cheikh Saad Bouh, le saint-homme de Nimzath.

He enjoyed a full life on the path charted by his revered grandfather, Sheikh Saad Bouh Cheikhna, the holy man of Nimzath [Mauritania].

His humility, known and recognized, was the mark of the greatness of a man, heir to a long tradition of Sufism instilled to his descendants by the venerable Cheikhna Sheikh Saad-Bouh.

We extend our deepest condolences to the whole family of Cheikhna Sheikh Saad-Bouh, to the sheikhs of Khadria and to the entire Khadre community, and pray that Allah the Almighty welcomes this illustrious man in His heavenly paradise.

Amen.
