Today marks the return of a very dedicated and high-spirited person back to The One who created all the creatures in this world. Isn't it wonderful to leave people with good deeds that we have done that they remember and appreciate even though we never ask for those acknowledgments? He was a one in a million jewel in which his demise is such a huge loss to everyone who knows him.
"[It will be said to the pious- believers of Islamic Monotheism]: "O (you) the one in (complete) rest and satisfaction! Come back to your Lord, Well-pleased (yourself) and well-pleasing (unto Him)! Enter you, then, among My (honoured) slaves, and enter you My Paradise!"[Al-Fajr, 89: 27-30]
May this give us the chance to take a minute or two to reflect if we have contributed anything to anyone or anything, that we in turn deserve God's paradise in the eternal life of the hereafter.
Al- Fatihah for Mas Afzal Masarudin.
