Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2009, 10:44 AM “And certainly We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits but give glad tidings to As Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.) who when afflicted with calamity, say: Truly! To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. They are the ones on whom are the Salawat (i.e. blessings etc.) (i.e. who are blessed and will be forgiven) from their Lord, and (they are those) who receive His Mercy and it is they who are the guided ones.” (Surah 2 Al-Baqarah Verses: 155 to 157) “Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (as deceiving things).” (Surah 3 Al-Imran Verse: 185) “Verily everything belongs to Allah that He hath taken away and belongs to Allah that He hath given. Allah is with him for an appointed time; forbear and expect reward.

March, 2009 for whom we offer our heartfelt condolences praying to Allah to grant patience and fortitude to all concerned and their near and dear ones to bear the irreparable loss. Besides we can only pray to Allah for the departed soul to rest in peace and according to the Hadith (saying of our Beloved Holy Prophet Muhammad, the Final and Last Messenger and Seal of all Prophets on whom Allah and His angels send their blessings, peace and salutations!) as follows: “O Allah forgive and have mercy upon them, excuse them and pardon them. And make honorable their reception. Expand their entry and cleanse them with water, snow and ice and purify them of sin as white robe is purified of faith. Admit them into the Garden; protect them from the punishment of the Grave and torment of Fire.” Zebunnissa Muhammad Zakaria Bawany and Abdul Wahid Osman Belal, Advocate High Court.
