In a facebook post Akbar's restaurant said: <br /><br />"Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un <br /><br />"Surely to Allah we belong and to Him we will all return.<br />It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Shabir Hussain, founder of Akbars Restaurant Group. <br />All restaurants will now be closed and will reopen on Friday 18th October at 5pm. <br />Please remember Shabir Hussain in your prayers. May Allah (SWT) grant him the highest rank in Jannah and bring peace and strength to his family during this difficult time."<br /><br />Rate My Takeaway's Danny Malin pays tribute.
