Jumaili and 11m converts
The passing of preacher Sheikh Tayis Abdullah Al-Jumaili in Doha on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, has once again drawn attention to a Friday sermon he delivered at Al-Alban Mosque in Kuwait in the early 1980s. The sermon marked the beginning of a charitable and religious outreach project that helped more than 11 million Africans embrace Islam. The sermon moved philanthropist Moudhi Burgis Abdullah Al-Sur to donate 20,000 Kuwaiti dinars to build a mosque and provide relief to those in need. Al-Jumaili selected Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Sumait to carry out the project in Malawi. In 1981, Al-Jumaili, Al-Sumait and other benefactors founded the African Muslims Committee, which later became Direct Aid. Its work expanded to more than 40 countries and included building mosques and schools, digging wells, and providing health and educational services.
