Nadia’s husband, Prof Dr Muhammad Kamarul Kabilan Abdullah, said he is trying to remain calm but urged the government to act immediately. He appealed for diplomatic efforts to be mobilised to contact the Saudi Arabian government in order to expedite the search for his wife.
“I’m just an ordinary citizen. If a minister or the government steps in, it would be much better and would feel quicker,” he said.
“Perhaps as an ordinary citizen it may take two to three days, but if a minister makes the decision by calling or contacting their counterpart in Saudi Arabia, it could take just two to three minutes.”
He added that Nadia’s family had lodged reports with Wisma Putra and the Malaysian Consulate in Jeddah, both of which had provided assistance and advice on the next steps. He also shared that his wife enjoys travelling and has always kept him and their children informed of her whereabouts whenever she arrives in another country.
“She has never been like this because this isn’t her first experience abroad. In fact, last year she performed umrah with her friends. She would regularly update me,” he said, as reported by Harian Metro.

Earlier reports claimed that Nadia went missing after sending a final text message to her husband saying, “I met a stranger.” However, Kamarul later clarified in a Facebook post that he never received such a message from Nadia.
He explained that the term “strangers” had been misinterpreted, as it was meant to refer to other pilgrims Nadia travelled with this time, unlike the previous year when she went with her friends.
Meanwhile, the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) confirmed that they have received a report regarding Nadia’s disappearance.
