He fully funded the translation project from his own pocket.

It is with great sadness that the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in New Zealand announces the death of Mr Shakil Ahmad Monir – the man credited with the first translation the Holy Quran into Te Reo Maori.

Born in Monghyr, Bihar province of India in 1932, Mr Monir was a professor in Science and Religion and a senior member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Pakistan. His desire to serve mankind through propagation of the peaceful message of Islam saw him work in a number of capacities in many different parts of the world, including the Indian sub continent, several African countries, as well as Australia and New Zealand.
