Farhat Naik, wife of well known Islamic speaker Dr Zakir Naik who
recently conducted a talk on ‘Misconceptions of Islam’ in Male’,  has
been admitted in ADK Hospital after falling from a banana boat
yesterday.

Spokesperson for the Islamic Ministry Sheikh Ahmadulla Jameel said
that Mrs Naik was not injured but was unable to swim and so was
admitted to ADK as a precaution.

”She was not injured,” Ahmadulla said, ”but we brought her Male’
because she might have been injured as she did not know how to swim,
and she is a very special guest for Maldivians.”

”She will be discharged today very soon,” he added. ”Dr Zakir Naik and
his family will depart today.”

Police Sub-Inspector Ahmed Shiyam said that police had also been
informed of the case.

He confirmed the incident had taken place on a resort but declined to
give further details upon a request by the Islamic Ministry.

A staff member working at Coco Palm Boduhithi Island resort meanwhile
confirmed that the incident happened yesterday afternoon. He said that
she suffered no injuries.

Dr Zakir Naik and his family arrived to the Maldives on May 25 and was
due to leave on May 31. Naik delivered two speeches during his stay in
the Maldives, which attracted over 10,000 people. His wife also spoke
on Islam last week.
