The maulid to be meaningful had to be made to encompass needs and aspirations of the people of Lamu. True to Sheikh Abubakar’s words this philosophy has crystallised in the initiation of the Medical Camp Program which began in the Lamu Maulid of 2005. This was in fulfilment of the vision of Habib Saleh - the founder of Riadha Mosque and the Lamu Maulid. Maulana Habib Saleh apart from being a spiritual leader was himself a tabib (traditional healer) and was known throughout Lamu and beyond for his skills to cure many ailments. In his time during maulid he used to attend to his patients who had travelled from far to attend the maulid as well as to be cured of an ailment. (Habib Saleh’s house near the mosque has been turned into a museum and his medicine cabinet is on display along with bottles which he used to store medicine). It was therefore decided that this vision of the founder of the Lamu Maulid should be revived.
