A female pilgrim from Plateau State, Hajiya Jamila Muhammad, has died in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, after suffering complications related to diabetes, Okay.ng reports.

The announcement was made in a statement issued by Daiyabu Dauda, Executive Secretary of the Plateau State Muslim Pilgrims Welfare Board. According to the statement, the deceased passed away on Monday, June 2, 2025, at King Abdulaziz Hospital, where medical officials had tried to stabilise her condition.

“From God we are, and to Him we shall return. With heavy hearts and total submission to the will of Allah, Plateau State has lost one of her female pilgrims, Hajiya Jamila Muhammad, on Monday, June 2, 2025, at King Abdulaziz Hospital, Makkah, as a result of diabetic complications, according to the doctors,” the statement read.

Dauda also noted that Jamila Muhammad was buried in Makkah according to Islamic rites. He invoked the Qur’anic verse: “And whoever leaves his home as an emigrant to Allah and His Messenger and then death overtakes him—his reward has already become incumbent upon Allah” [Qur’an 4:100], in honour of her passing during the sacred pilgrimage.

The executive secretary offered condolences on behalf of the state pilgrims board, saying: “May Allah forgive her shortcomings and admit her into Al-Jannatul Firdaus, the highest place in Paradise.”

The passing of Jamila Muhammad follows the recent death of Adizatu Dazumi, a 75-year-old pilgrim from Edo State, who also died in Saudi Arabia on May 27 after a brief illness.
