He served as the President of the SCSN for several years, guiding the council through times of both societal challenge and growth.
Born in Iwo, Osun State, Sheikh Hadiyatullah received his early Islamic education under local scholars before advancing his studies abroad. He earned respect across Nigeria and beyond for his profound knowledge of Islamic jurisprudence and his calm, principled leadership style.
May Allah forgive Sheikh Abdul Rasheed Hadiyatullah, grant him mercy, and admit him into Jannatul Firdaus
