Dr Baiza Rasheedah Muhammad Passes away
Dr Baiza Rasheedah Muhammad returned to Allah in her home on December 22, 2022. May Allah accept her good deeds and enter into Janat Ul Firdous, says an email message. It adds:
Dr Baiza Rasheedah Muhammad was born on February 22, 1940, in Chicago, Illinois to her beloved parents, Malvin and Marjorie Sims. Baiza was the youngest of three children. Baiza has one living sister, Barbara Sims and her brother Malvin Jr. Sims and her parents are with the Lord.
Baiza is survived by four children, Jendahee Marticci, Bahiyyah Cather, Taharka and spouse Illianna Muhammad, Kareemah and spouse Christopher Nowell; thirteen grandchildren, Taji and Tahiyyah Muhammad, Mackenzi, Savannah and Dakota Nowell, Kiana and Rudy Muhammad, Adrian, Gianna, Lennox, and Maddox Marticci, Julian and Makayla Cather; and three great-grandchildren, Anastasia, Analeya, and Akani.
Those who knew her will remember her love for Allah. Baiza devoted her life to Allah. She believed in natural healing and in her words, “You can be well if you believe and apply knowledge and application of natural remedies.”
Throughout Baiza’s lifetime, she committed herself to her work in the communities that she lived in - Chicago, Tucson, and Atlanta. Baiza hosted multiple radio shows, such as Healing and Harmony for Humankind on American Muslim 360, and African Beat on KXCI.
Baiza served her Creator by studying and teaching the art of self-healing by using prayer and God-given foods and herbs. Baiza shared her knowledge by opening non-profits, such as The Newlife Horizon House; Newlife Herbs Oils, and Spices; The African American School of Human Dignity; and many others.
Baiza helped many people throughout her time here on this earth and the knowledge she shared will remain in the hearts of many.
O Allah, forgive Baiza Rasheedah Muhammad and elevate her station among those who are guided. Send her along the path of those who came before, and forgive us and her, O Lord of the worlds. Enlarge for her and her grave and shed light upon her in it.
“Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.”
