Alas Jalal Ameenur Rahman sahib is no more

It is noted with much sadness that Jalal Ameenur Rahman sahib, senior advocate, Madras High Court, passed away at about 6 pm on Sunday, 2nd August 2020. He was associated with Ambur Muslim Educational Society(AMES) and many other organisations in Ambur and Chennai. His support to the AMES in its important projects cannot be forgotten. He co-operated with the Society in buying the land from his Jalal family for Mazharul Uloom College establishment and helped with the result that an excellent arts and science college was established some years ago and it is functioning well at Ambur. But for him it would not have been possible. 

He was also in leather business along with two other partners in Periamet, Chennai some years ago. 

He participated in the three day grand centenary function of Ambur Muslim Educational Society at Ambur which was inaugurated by the late President of India Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. He was a simple and friendly person. 

I had the opportunity of meeting him several times in Periamet and educational meetings. He appreciated my replied given to baseless remarks made by one of his colleagues C. Lakshim Narain in the now defunct The Mail, an evening very popular daily newspaper and encouraged me. Its building was next to The Hindu office at Mount Road, Chennai.
