مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا
“Among the believers there are men who have been true to the contract they made with Allah. Some of them have fulfilled their pact by death and some are still waiting to do so, not having changed in any way at all.”
(Al-Ahzab: 23)

Our deceased brother (may Allah have mercy on him) was known for his piety and he was sincere to Allah in his Islam and true to the Messenger of Allah in his call. He was a protector to it as was a protector to Allah and we consider him of the righteous, yet we do not commend anyone to Allah سبحانه وتعالى.
Indeed, the eyes shed tears and the heart grieves, and we will not say except what pleases our Lord, we mourn and are saddened by your departure O Abu Muhammad. You are from the predecessors and we are the followers. We ask Allah سبحانه وتعالى the Most Merciful and Beneficent to unite us in the Jannat Al-Firdous with our Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and the noble companions may Allah be pleased with them, and we ask Allah Most Kind and Generous to grant us an abode together in:
فِي مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِنْدَ مَلِيكٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ
“In a seat of honor near a Sovereign, Perfect in Ability”
(Al-Qamar: 55)
We ask Allah to inspire his parents, family and members of Hizb ut Tahrir with patience and solace and to be as in the verse:
الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُمْ مُصِيبَةٌ قَالُوا إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ أُولَئِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَلَوَاتٌ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْمُهْتَدُونَ
“Who, when disaster strikes them, say, “Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.” Those are the ones upon whom are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is those who are the [rightly] guided”
(Al Baqara: 156-157)
His pure body was buried on Monday evening, 13/10/2014 CE.
Condolences will be accepted on Tuesday and Wednesday in his uncle’s house in Shu’abah / Al-Khalil, from 5 pm to 9 pm.
