to Him we shall return



he who could not stand lying and was struggling against dysfunctional bone marrow is now at the other side of life. i first posted about his story on august 18, last year.

on june 11, that was three weeks back, when i summarized events surroundings myself and those around me, i was positive he would be able to pull through as he had agreed to go for a transplant, as advised by the specialist despite his concern on the effect of chemotheraphy being part of the treatment.

on june 30 when my cellphone rang at a quarter after six in the morning, my heart skipped a beat thinking a company's infrastructure had encountered a glitch or a fire incident had occured somewhere. as the caller, a manager from my office, broke the news, i almost cried.

he was a good person, he could not stand lying to me. he was a good son, he took care of his father and his father passed away while under his care. he talked about parents and the importance of patience. i still remember all his words of wisdom.

may Allah reward him for his good deeds.

to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. may Allah forgive him and forgive us all.
