NEW DELHI: Renowned Islamic scholar Maulana Wahiduddin Khan has died after recently being testing positive for the coronavirus.

The scholar had tested positive for COVID-19 last week and was in ICU at Apollo Hospital in New Delhi. This news was disclosed by son, Dr Saniyasnain Khan on social media.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi condoled his death and said the scholar would be remembered for his “insightful knowledge” on theology and spirituality.

“Saddened by the passing away of Maulana Wahiduddin Khan. He will be remembered for his insightful knowledge on matters of theology and spirituality. He was also passionate about community service and social empowerment. Condolences to his family and countless well-wishers. RIP,” the India prime minister tweeted.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon.

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing away of Maulana Wahiduddin Khan.

He has left us as one big family to stay united and work for the cause of dawah. Please do dua.

Dr Saniyasnain Khan

He had also written a two-volume commentary on the Holy Quran. In 1970, he established the Centre for Peace and Spirituality to promote peaceful coexistence, social harmony and interfaith dialogue.
