ONE YEAR WITHOUT MAMA: A TRIBUTE TO A MOTHER WITH A HEART OF GOLD

Image
“No affliction strikes except by permission of ALLAH. And whoever believes in ALLAH, He will guide his heart. And ALLAH is knowing of all things.” (Quran 64:11) It’s been a year—twelve months marked by the quiet ache of absence and memories that keep us company since we lost our beloved mother (fondly called ‘Mama’ by us and her grandchildren), Hajiya Sa’adatu Musa Kofa on the 17th of May 2024, corresponding to the 9th of Dhu’l-Qadah, 1445 AH.  Time has flown, yet the silence left in the wake of our mother’s passing has been deafening. Still, it remains painfully difficult to accept that my time with Mama (being her last child), has come to an end. Equally, Mama’s death has hit my beloved father, four older siblings, four grandchildren, her sisters, in-laws, relatives, domestic staff and acquaintances in unquantifiable proportion. Married to my father, Engr. Usman Shehu Liman for close to four decades, Mama was born into the family of Late Alh. Musa Kofa’s family, Gidan Garko, Kofa...

A Miracle of Nine: The Inspiring Story of the Malian Couple Who Welcomed Nonuplets into the World

Image
In a world where childbirth is always a moment of wonder, one Malian couple has rewritten the definition of extraordinary. On May 4, 2021, Halima Cissé and her husband, Adjudant Kader Arby, from Timbuktu, Mali, welcomed nine babies—five girls and four boys—in a single day. Against enormous odds, every single one of the nonuplets survived and thrived, making global headlines and entering medical history. A Pregnancy That Surprised Everyone Halima, just 25 years old at the time, initially believed she was carrying seven children, as shown in early ultrasounds conducted in Mali. But doctors were in for a shock when she delivered nine babies by cesarean section at the Ain Borja Clinic in Casablanca, Morocco, where she was transferred for specialized care. The government of Mali stepped in to support her journey, covering the costs of the medical treatment abroad—an indication of just how rare and high-risk the situation was. Survival Against the Odds The birth of nonuplets is extraord...
