He died on 30 April 2021, leaving his widow, Romaini Mat Daud, and 6 children.[1] Initially, there was a rumour that his death was due to the COVID-19 vaccine, although it was denied by his family.[2] His body was later buried in Ketereh.[2] As the seat was vacated, a by-election was supposed to be held but was postponed due to the emergency order declared in January in order to curb the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
