'I held him in my arms and taught him to recite the syahada'

In the early evening of today, a tragic motorcycle accident occurred in Jalan Pusara, Kuala Terengganu. Nineteen-year-old motorcyclist Muhammad Aiman Khairul Anuar lost his life at the scene following the incident at 5:55 PM. Aiman was riding with three others when the crash took place. His friend and fellow motorcyclist, Muhammad Afiq Daniel Norazri, recounted the events leading up to the collision.

Afiq stated that the driver of the other vehicle turned in front of Aiman, who was unable to stop in time and crashed into the car. Witnessing the accident firsthand, Afiq rushed to Aiman's side and held him as he recited the syahada, a declaration of faith in Islam. However, upon returning, Afiq noticed that Aiman's condition had deteriorated.

After the incident, Aiman's body was taken to Sultanah Nur Zahirah Hospital for a post-mortem examination. Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Azli Mohd Noor revealed that the driver of the car, a 51-year-old woman, was making a left turn when the collision occurred. Aiman's death will be investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act, which prescribes penalties of up to two to ten years in prison and fines ranging from RM5,000 to RM20,000.

A first-time offender will face a driving license suspension of at least three years, while subsequent offenses will result in a ten-year ban.
