Supreme Mufti Galabuzi Urges Ugandans to Prioritize Legacy and Development

The Supreme Mufti of Uganda, Sheikh Muhammad Shaban Galabuzi, has challenged citizens to focus on impactful service and sustainable development. Speaking in Nakifuma during the Duwa prayers for the late Hajat Hafuwa Nalubega, a former Kampala Central Division Councillor, the religious leader stressed the importance of building legacies that outlive individuals.

Galabuzi noted that his leadership continues to prioritize community-empowering infrastructure and income-generating projects. These initiatives are designed to provide long-term financial backing to the Muslim community and vulnerable populations.

“My focus now is on development, particularly constructing buildings and establishing income-generating projects that can provide financial support to the Muslim community,” Galabuzi told mourners, emphasizing that individuals should invest in projects that benefit future generations.

Highlighting the life of the late Nalubega, who passionately advocated for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), the Supreme Mufti reaffirmed that his office maintains an open-door policy. He encouraged community members and groups to submit structured proposals for institutional assistance, assuring them of tailored support.

Other leaders at the gathering echoed messages of unity and timely compassion. Area representative Kiwanuka Suleiman urged citizens to support one another during difficult times rather than waiting to show love posthumously. Kiwanuka also touched on broader socio-economic concerns, pointing to the rising cost of living impacting ordinary households across the country.

Director of Dawa at Kibuli, Yasin Kiwewa, explained the spiritual significance of the memorial prayers, describing them as a vital religious duty to seek divine mercy for the departed. The family, represented by Dr Abubaker Mukiibi, expressed profound gratitude to the Supreme Mufti and all attendees for standing with them during their time of grief.
