Translation: Tawasul News Channel- One of the Muadhins of the Prophet's Mosque, Sheikh Hussein Hamza Afifi, who has been the voice of the Prophet's Mosque Mukabbariyyah for more than 30 years, after suffering with a disease for a long time has passed away. Amid the crowds of worshipers, pray for the deceased was in the Prophet's Mosque, before it was carried to his final resting place, as his body was laid to rest in a cemetery adjacent to the Jannat Al-Baqee' Cemetery.

The deceased hails from one of the oldest families of Hijaz, known in the city, where he was born Sheikh Afifi Hussein in 1378 AH in Medina and learning in schools and got on the stage of primary schools, with muezzin chosen in the mosque of Prophet Mohammad in 1400.

With the death of the muezzin Afifi, Medina has lost its second muezzin, as has already been called the Prophet's Mosque at dawn Wednesday, 26 January 1428, Sheikh Abdul Aziz Rayes, who died of illness over a period of two years.

Innaa Lillaahhi wa innaa ilaihi raajioon. I was just about to post a comment asking about where are the muuezzins Shaykh Hussain Afeefi and Saami Dehwali. Shaykh Hussain was honestly one of my favourite muezzins - i especially used to like the way he uused to say the first "ashhadu anna muhammadar rasoolullah". May Allah shower his innfinite Mercy UPON HIM, AND raise his ranks in Jannnnah. Aameen.
