SEREMBAN, May 16 -- The chairman of surau in Taman Kobena, Senawang, Mohd Isa Yaacob, 69, died while performing the Subuh (dawn) prayer at the surau early this morning.

Mohd Isa, one of the congregants, collapsed while the imam was reciting surah Al-Fatihah.

Abdul Razak Abdul Rahman, 63, who witnessed the incident, told Bernama that the congregants immediately gave Mohd Isa first aid, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) but without success.

Meanwhile, Mohd Isa’s wife, Siti Esah Abdullah, 65, said that her late husband, a military veteran, suffered from heart problems and had undergone heart bypass before. Mohd Isa was admitted to Tuanku Ja'afar Hospital, Seremban to undergo treatment for the disease a few days before Ramadan.
