He, however, noted that it has been a while since they last conducted one, saying the Islamic confab also seeks to enlighten people about the life and time of late Gambian Islamic scholar, Alhagi Jason Touray and what he did for humanity.

 He acknowledged that the life and legacy of this vulnerable scholar will forever be remembered by the people particularly those who learned from him.

He called on the people to be God-fearing in whatever they do and follow their teachings in strengthening peace and love among the Muslim ummah.
