MIRACLES IN ONDO: Woman Delivers Baby With Mysterious Islamic Sign Shaped Ears

When the little Mahmud Kosija was
delivered by his mother, Hajia Abibat
Kosija two months ago, he came to
this world with mysteries which had
been attracting several residents of
Ondo Kingdom and its neighbouring
communities to their family house at
Igbomoba Street, beside a central
mosque.
Mahmud, a son of an Islamic cleric was
said to have been born with a strange
ear-shape, with an Islamic inscription.
Interestingly, it is said that the new-
born baby was shouting “Allah” “Allah”’
immediately as he was delivered at the
Mother and Child Hospital in Ondo Town.
As soon as mother had been discharged
from the hospital, the house of the
baby’s family has become something like
mecca. A large crowd came to see the
miraculous ear with Islamic inscription
meaning, “Allahu” in Islamic parlance.
The boy’s father named him Alfa
Ibrahim Kosija and described his birth
as the handiwork of Allah.
He explained that the shape of the ear
which appeared like an Islamic
inscription of “Allah” in the holy Quran
was an indication of the message of God
that the end of the world was gradually
coming close.
According to the Islamic cleric, apart
from the shape of the ear, the birth of
the baby was a sign that the world was
gradually coming to an end. He stressed
that apart from being born on Muslim
holy day, Friday, the time the baby was
born was also apt in Islam (12, noon).
He added that the baby’s cry of “Allah,
Allah” after birth attracted the
attention of people at the hospital to
the labour room before the shape of the
ear was later discovered by the nurses,
after which the baby used his left hand
side to cover the ear.
Corroborating Kosija’s comment, an
Ondo town based Islamic cleric, Sheik
Abdulakeem Abeeblah, attributed the
shape of the ear which he said means
Allah in Islamic parlance. He called on
all Muslims to fear God and refrain
from committing sins that could prevent
them from entering the kingdom of God.
Meanwhile mother confesses that the
boy’s behaviour is quite unusual of babies
of his age.
Not only is he crying during specific
period of the day especially during the
early Morning Prayer, popularly called
“Tajuud” in Islamic religion, the boy is
often noticed covering the strange ear
with his left hand, mother says.
Commenting on the development, an
Ondo based Medical Doctor, Olu Ojo
described the shape of the ear which has
an Islamic inscription as unusual. He
noted that it was formed as a result of
deformity in the conprivate part process
in the embryo.
Dr Olu Ojo, while ruling out any other
meaning in the shape of the ear which
he said appeared so strange,added that
it could occur to non-Muslim or even
Christian.
