I first met Tariq, or as our friends called him “chacha”, in 1976 in Islamabad. He had remained a great friend of myself and my family’s throughout the years. Although he was older than me, he always spoke to me and gave me the respect you would give to your elders. He would always refer to me as Jimmy Bhai. Tariq was a very hardworking Jamaat member. I had never seen a Jamaat event where he wasn’t in the mosque helping out. He will be dearly missed and I will always look back at our memories together with great love and fondness. May Allah elevate his status in Heaven and shower His mercy upon his family and give them solace and fortitude and enable them to bear this loss with patience. Ameen

Nasira Hafeez

Ek dure abdar tha jaany kidher gaya
Ek roshni bakher k khud bhi bikhar gaya.

It was April 13, 2021, it seemed like a typical day but everything was about to change. Just one day before Ramadan we all were badly hit by the sad news of dismissal of my dedicated cousin, caring brother-in-law, everlasting smile samadhi, and loving nana jee of my grand children's, Tariq Ahmad Awan. The grief was so overpowering that it invaded every particle of my being. I felt heartbroken as if someone has taken a hammer and smashed my heart into thousand pieces. He was a light and leading role for our family. I saw glimpses of him that how focused and committed he was towards his responsibilities. For the jamaat he was the true pillar of strength, and also a volunteer always ready to serve jamaat with a smiling face. During Jalsa Salana, Ijtema, and family functions I was amazed to see his arrangements. During Jalsa one of his duties was to bring breakfast and dinner from the lungarkhana for the guests of Messiah (as). He picked guests from Rabwah station to drop them at home and during the travel his favorite hobby was to say loudly "NARAY HAY-TAKBEER".

Hoye go bhag-e-aalam main bhut sherein samar paeda
Nahi mumkin k ho Tariq sa aali gohar paeda.

He added my both sons, Mudassar and Munawar in the blessed scheme of Alwasiyat and told me very happily that they both honored my advice. Since my grand daughter's birth, Zoha, he used to visit her even in hot summer days after office and never came without bringing any toys and candies for zoha and Zoraiz. He lays down with Zoha and played with her for hours. He always take Zoha and Zoraiz to market and ask them to buy anything they like.
Recently our trip to Pakistan in 2019, he picked us from airport and send us home in a comfortable car but himself came in a van with our luggage. From morning to night he was always there to assist us in every task, always asking us if we need anything. After my daughter Sabika's wedding he gave dinner to her whole family and welcomed them with open arms.
I have so many memories but unable to express my emotions.
"O my lord, accept all the remarkable services of my brother for Islamabad Jamaat which are spread over half century".
Lastly, I would say that you were a hero, precious gem of our family. You left us so early and we are going to miss you for the rest of our lives. we love you so much and sorry we can never repay the debt.
He was a true copy of Love for all and Hatred for none.

Hansty howy honto say piya jam-e-shahadat
Makbool hoi arsh pay kiya khoob ibadat.

Good bye my respected brother.

When a great man like Tariq Awan departs, for years the light he leaves behind lies on the path of men.
Tariq, you left us too soon, but your love and sweet memories will always live in our hearts forever and forever, because your life was a blessing and your memory is our treasure.

You are loved beyond words.

Best Regards,

Abdul Rasheed

Zulf kī ruḳhsār kī bāteñ kareñ
Aao husn-e-yār kī bāteñ kareñ
Jiss kay jaanay say hain udaas sabb
Aao uss dildār kī bāteñ kareñ

I am thankful to Almighty Allah that I have been blessed with good friends throughout my life. These friends are very dear to me. They inspired, supported, encouraged, listened, guided, helped, practically motivated, taught good lessons, mentored throughout my life and are a source of motivation for me. Late Brother Tariq Awan Sahib was at the top of the list.

It is a blessing for me that I was associated with Tariq Bhai in one capacity or another for over 40 years. His family was among the founding families that moved to Islamabad in 1965. He was a corporate memory of Islamabad Jamaat and stayed well connected with hundreds of families throughout his life. I have vague memories about how our relationship started. It was around the time when the use of wedding halls was uncommon and wedding/walima functions were held by blocking streets and installing marquees. At one such wedding in Sector G-6 of Islamabad, I saw a few dedicated youngsters working tirelessly making all the arrangements from setting-up the tables to winding-up and then washing all the rented cutlery and crockery to get it ready to return. One person among them was the centre of attraction. He worked tirelessly from the start all the way to the end. I came to know that person as ‘Tariq Sahib’. Later in the early 1980’s I became Zaeem for Sector G-7. At that time Tariq Bhai was serving the community as Nazem Mall for Islamabad Jamaat. He held my hand and taught me from scratch. From how to write and issue a receipt to the best dates, days and times to visit homes to collect chanda to make it convenient for the members to make payments. He always ensured that I had a pleasant experience by accompanying me and introducing me to all the members and helping me where I had difficulty.

This relationship was further nurtured during security duties at the mosque in the mid-1980s. There was never a dull moment at duty in the presence of Tariq Bhai. Those who were older than him by 20+years and those who were younger than him by 20+ years always enjoyed his company. His sense of humour was tremendous which always made duties easier. He was an expert at making instant jokes (chatkalay) which helped in converting heavy discussions into easier ones. At one such occasion during Jamaat Aamla meeting, he was asked to train more people on how to perform Ghusl so the workload is shared. The topic of discussion was serious but his instant response made everyone laugh. Tariq Bhai smiled and said “Ameer Sahib I am happy to train more young people, could you please provide some volunteers from Ansaar that we can practice on?”

Rather than people looking at their watches so they can go home as soon as the duty time finished, they always preferred to stay around a little longer to enjoy the company. Due to his personality, a lot of people were motivated to join the community work. Throughout his life, I always found him with a smile on his face and sparks in his eyes.

His dedication and commitment to his tasks was exemplary. On every night before Eid (Chand raat), when everyone enjoyed time with their families, he was among the first few to come to the mosque to clean it to ensure that jamaat members have a neat and clean place to offer Eid prayers the next day. Other team members were ‘variables’ that would come for a few hours and leave but Tariq Bhai was ‘constant’. Most of the time, he would sleep in the mosque and return home early in the morning to get ready for the Eid prayers. On one such occasion, he told me that it was his 8th (or 10th) consecutive Chand raat at the mosque. It was the same case for Eid-ul-Azha when he use to spend all of the days of Eid at the mosque to collect animal hides and make them ready for sale. At the end of the day he would sell hides at the best possible price. Not only did Tariq Bhai stay in contact with Rawalpindi Jamaat to coordinate the best selling price, he also developed contacts with other communities (like Imam Bargahs) to get a collectively higher price.

Looking after a stationery shop (Rehmat Book Stall in Jinnah Super Market) by managing procurement, placement of items at appropriate places, marketing, sales, accounts maintenance and updating the owners every month was his dedication to fulfil his commitment and also the trust people had in him.

I started my job in 1991. My office was in Blue Area, across his home. He would often visit me in the afternoons, mostly with a few pieces of his homemade ‘signature’ cake. His personality was so attractive that my work colleagues always showed respect for him despite the fact that we were both Ahmadis. I left that job in 1998 and migrated to Australia in 2002. A few of my colleagues from that time, when we met, would always ask about the wellbeing of Tariq Bhai. I am fortunate to enjoy the Awan family’s hospitality throughout my life. His doors were always open for guests. We, friends had meals there several times, mostly without any prior notice.

On all occasions, be it an event of happiness like a wedding/ walima in my family or the passing away of a family member, Tariq Bhai was always standing with me and helped make all the arrangements. He was always the chief photographer at weddings in my family.

Tariq Bhai was a down to earth, and a selfless person full of humility. This one time when we met, he told me that he had just donated blood. He was afraid of returning home because his family had strictly forbidden him from donating blood. At that time, they believed the excessive blood donations he had made were now affecting his health. I asked him why he donated blood again? Tariq Bhai smiled and said ‘menay itnay khoon ka kia karna hay. Agar kissee kee jan bach jaye tau kia faraq parta hai. Ghar walay to bilaa wajah jazbaatee ho jaatay hain’ (I can live with a bit less blood in my body. What is the harm if I can save someone’s life? My family unnecessarily gets emotional and worried). Brother Tahir Awan Sahib rightly said that ‘Tariq’s blood is circulating in 100s of people around the world. This is just one example of his care for humanity and the desire to help and serve others. I never saw him expecting any reward or even a simple word of ‘thank you’ from anyone. I am sure he will be enjoying all his rewards in the real life now. Tariq Bhai was a true example of ‘Naikee Kar Daryaa Main Daal’ (Do the right deed and forget).

Walking every night of Ramadhan from Sector G-6 to F-7/3 to offer congregational traveeh prayers year after year after year is not easy. Tariq Bhai always did this with passion. After finishing office, he used to go to the mosque to join congregational prayers. After prayers, he would spend a few hours doing community work before going home in the evening. The rights of Allah (haqooqullah) and the rights of fellow human beings (haqooqul ibaad), both well served.

Despite spending so much time serving humanity and the community, Tariq Bhai was a true family man. I remember when his office was in Melody Market of Islamabad (closer to home) he once mentioned that he refused his promotion several times because it will result in him moving to an office which is further away from home and he won’t be able to walk his children to and from school. When any of his sisters would visit Pakistan, he would limit his outside activities so he could look after visiting family members well. Same was the case when his mother would visit overseas, he would spend more time at home. During my visit to Pakistan in 2018-19, I asked him if he had any plans to settle overseas, his instant response was ‘Rasheed Bhai jab tak Maria (his daughter) Pakistan main hay, ham iss baaray mein soachna bhee nahee chahtay’. Alas, Allah had different plans for him.
He was among the few people I would seek advice from on various matters. His advice was always full of wisdom and sincerity. He was the same person inside out, no hypocrisy at all.

We were involved in various ventures together. Be it an audit/ investigation assignment from the Department of Umoore Aama of the Islamabad Jamaat or working part time for State Life Insurance Corporation of Pakistan (SLIC), I saw tremendous respect for Tariq Bhai from all corners. On one such visit to a client, I was surprised to see when the client said “Tariq Bhai, I don’t want to hear any details of the insurance policy plan you want to propose for me. I know if you are proposing something for me, it will be for my benefit. Just provide me the forms to complete and the payment that is required’. I was fortunate to be selected by him to be his deputy when he was Secretary Waqfe Jadeed for Islamabad Jamaat. I used to visit members with him at various sectors of Islamabad and attended quarterly meetings in Rabwah (now Chenab Nagar). The respect he got from others was always exceptional.

Apart from serving the community, family, friends and fellow human beings, I always found him dedicated to look after plants in his front yard. I remember after the death of Agha G (Respected Saeed Ahmad Awan Sahib - father of Tariq Bhai), a family was visiting for condolences. During their visit, the time of water supply started (due to shortage of water in town, water was only supplied to homes at an appointed time and for around one/ two hours in a day). Tariq Bhai excused himself from guests for 10-15 minutes and started watering the plants. Later he said that if he couldn’t do it today, the poor plants would have to wait another 24 hours to get the much needed water. Such was his love and care for everything.

When Tariq Bhai adopted new technology (WhatsApp), he use to send a beautiful ‘Good Morning’ message to friends and family (around 300+ contacts, as he told me) every morning (right after fajar prayer time in Islamabad). The last message I received from him was on the 26th of March 2021.

"If you have the Spirit of Understanding everything in a positive way, You'll Enjoy each & every Moment of Life, whether it's Pressure or Pleasure - Good Morning".

The sadness of him leaving will stay for a long time, but keeping in mind the message above, there is so much about his life to celebrate.
He was not a species of this world, he belonged to a different planet. Allah sent him to our planet so he can provide something to everyone he remained associated with. For all of his good deeds, he was provided with an exceptional status of ‘Shaheed’ for the transition from this world to the eternal life by Almighty Allah. It makes his whole family proud to be the family of Shaheed Tariq Awan. He was a Waliullah. Tariq Awan, The Saint (a friend of God).

Bulanay Wala Hai Sab Se Pyaara Osee Pay Aye Dil Tu Jaan Fida Kar

May Allah shower his blessings on the departed soul and continue to escalate his status in paradise with every passing moment (Ameen). May Allah Almighty grant courage, Sabr –e- Jameel and strength to his family to bear this loss and may Allah Almighty be with the family, especially his mother, wife, daughters, sisters and brothers and save everyone from all calamities (Ameen).

I would like to thank my friend Respected Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib and Respected Tahir Awan Sahib for forwarding me the link and asking me to write my thoughts and memories on this sad occasion. May Allah bless you all.

In every daughter's life, her father has a very special place for which there is no substitute. Loss of the father can't be expressed in words. It seems like nothing can bring you comfort in this time of greif.
Abu Jan was a kind father, obedient son, caring husband, loving brother, perfect grandfather or maybe an angel.
ABBU JAN never wanted to hurt others and hopefully nothing has been happened ever. In 29 years of my life, I don't remember a single moment when I was reprimanded for my mistakes or carelessness and never expressed anger.
Because I am younger, I expresses my desires more quickly than my sister. It was always his habit to fulfill my desires and since my childhood I used to consider myself his darling.
When I started going to school, we went together by doing walk. I did not remember any single day that I had picked up my bag myself.
Infact when I started college by bus even then, he always stands outside to protect me from hot/cold weather and to save me from any trouble.
You raised me to be a strong women, you made me a world full of love and for that i am too great full....
As i got married and went away but it makes our heart more closer , you have shared a-lot of things with me it makes me feel so honoured...
Then Aveed Ahmad (my son) came into our lives and Allah Paak made our life more cheerful.....
I Still remember the voice of cough you did by your own daily to wake up my son and call you Nana G .... Ahhh wish I could hear it again 😢....

As you always walk few step back from me just because I don’t like the smell of cigarettes you smokes it just realise now how much you care about me.....
For many years you did part time jobs till late night just because to raise up your family and take care of our each and everything......
You never call my husband (Saud) by name Always said Saud Sahib ...There is no one after you who calls him with such respect.
On 10 of February 2021 we painted pots of our garden together, you were getting tired but you completed it because it will make your mom (my Grand Mother) Happy....
As you were working related to Shauba Maal in Jammat e Ahmadiya from many years many times i saw you to give others Chanda Jaat by yourself who were not able to give due to some personal reasons to you on last days of the financial year It shows you never loves Money at all....
I Still remember on 3 April 2021 you asked to collect some papers from BAIT UZ ZIKER and we were unable to collect that due to electricity shortage there then you said “I would die without them “. Wish I could bring it for you and could complete your last desire 😭 or it could save your life ..... Allahh Allah

You have tested positive on 20 of March and till 3rd April the day we were going to the hospital and you were sitting next to me you have never did any complain regarding any serious issue, you were too strong ....
On Tuesday 13 April 2021 at around 6:20 doctors asked My Dear Chacho TAYYAB AWAN to remove the ventilator , he is a banker and signed millions of papers in his life but on that day he Signed the most difficult one And Save me and my Ammi from the most difficult time in our life Thanks to Allah Almighty for the loving ones.... and after few minutes received message from him that you are no longer with us ....

إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ
MAUT USKI HAI JISKA ZAMANA KAREY AFSOS....
YOU TOU DUNIYA MEIN SABHI AATAY HAIN MARNEY KE LIYE....
Abbu Jan as a child, I had a million ways to annoy you. As a teenager, I had a million reasons to defy you. As an adult, I had a million opportunities to make you proud. I did all that but I missed out on the most important – A million chances to say I love you while you were alive. Missing you alot
Death took away not just my father but also someone who was my unsung hero.Your death will always remain a blurry memory. But your life will always be a vivid one, the epitome of greatness and sacrifice. I miss you ABBU JAAN...
I could write millions of pages but still unable to say, just how much I love him and miss him Every single day....
Piyary Abbu Jaan you will be terribly missed, you were loved by all of us and you will be cherished in our memories forever...
May Khuda taala put him in a special place where he will be watching us , the people who loved and cherished him....

JAATAY HOO MERI JAAN KHUDA HAFIZ O NASIR
ALLAH NIIGEHBAAN KHUDA HAFIZ O NASIR
HER LAMHA HER AAN KHUDA HAFIZ O NASIR....

"Surely we belong to Allah and to him we should return".

Tariq Khalu was very kind hearted, nobel and down to earth personality. His services and love for jammat was immense, May God give us the strength and opportunity to serve the jammat the way he did and in the end Allah had given him shahadah.
Surely this is because of his work for jammat and the people around, he was always there for everyone.
I would describe this by quoting the ayyat of Quran where Allah S.W.T says:
"And who so obeys Allah and the Messenger S.A.W, they will be the one to whom Allah has bestowed His blessings, The Prophets, The truthful, The Martyrs and The righteous. What excellent companions are these"

And in the very next ayyat which is in continuation with the previous one Allah S.W.T said
"This is indeed the blessing of Allah and Sufficient is Allah who knows all"

So indeed Allah showed his blessings on Dear Tariq Khaalu by giving such a poius man this great rank of shahadah. May Allah give patience to all family members specially to khaala and his daughters, my lovely sisters.

Zara Taniya Saad

In memory of our Beloved Taya Abbu who passed away on Tuesday 13 March, 2021.
"Surely we belong to Allah and to him we should return".
Taya Abbu was a kind-hearted, simple, very down to earth and a humble person who was filled with the love for the humanity. He'd never said NO to anyone. He was always determined to help and solve the problems of people around him. He always try to fulfill his responsibilities.
His love for Jamat is undeniable. Being Tehreek e jadid Secretary he always try to fulfill the targets set by Hazoor and because of him, Islamabad jamat stood 1st many times. He used to work very hard and remain worried till Hazoor announces the result. When the result came, I always told Taya Abu that he would be ready to give the treat. He always encouraged people to enter the Blessed system of donation (Chanda). He gave Ghussal to hundreds of deceased, even last year he received a call from his saddar halqa and said he is going somewhere, everyone inquired where are you going at this time? He said "They don't find anyone who can give ghussal so he is going".
His love and respect for his mother, wife, children, grand children, siblings and their children and grand children was extraordinary. He always welcomed guests with an open heart. Whenever we went to taya abbu's house, he was waiting for us with the door open before we arrived. Taya abbu liked photography so he captured almost every moment of our childhood which made it unforgettable for us. He loves cricket. Whenever he was unable to watch match he used to call me and ask for score. He was always the first person who call us to congratulate on special occasions like Ramadan, Eid, New year etc. In Ramadan, after sehri we along with taya abbu went to walk in our street. Taya abbu used to lead us in 5 prayers daily. Taya abbu sometimes picked up from academy. After our ijtima, we immediately went to taya Abu's room in masjid to show him our prizes. Taya abbu placed our feets on his feets and helped us to walk. Taya abbu taught Saad to ride bicycle.
Taya abbu's sense of humour was so good. Once we were having dinner with him, he said I went to Grocery Store and they were looking here and there for whole spice(Garam Masala) packet. We asked, did they found? He replied "No" then he pointed towards his plate and said "Is main hai".
While he was on oxygen we went to taya abbu's house, he was sitting on a chair near the window. He waved at us saying I'm fine.
It’s hard to lose someone who meant so much to all of us, and even harder that we can’t all be together. It's so hard for us to believe that he is no longer with us. There are no words that can explain our pain and grief. Indeed it’s a big loss for the family especially for Dadi Ammi, Tayi Ammi, Mariya Appi and Amna Appi. He was a gem. His life was enlightened with exemplary things and we all should try to follow his footsteps.
May Allah bless him with the highest rank in jannah. May his precious soul rest in peace. May Allah give us strength to bear this immense loss. May Allah also give us the opportunity to serve Jamat like him. May this deadly virus end soon. Ameen
My Beloved Taya Abbu .. You will be missed.

السَّــلاَمُ عَلَيـْـكُم وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكـَـاتُه
Thank you Muddasar for letting me in this group to share memories with Tariq Uncle.

Tariq uncle always took me as his own son. Also because my own father had passed away, he always loved me like a father loves his son. My late father and he were close friends and they were actively involved in serving Jamaat for long time together.

I was also a Jamaty student of Tariq uncle and took training on computer section of Shouba Maal and funeral services trainings under him. We also performed the final ablution (ghusal) for a lot of deceaseds together.

During Tariq uncle's illness we were constantly in touch and every time we talked he used to inquire about the community matters with deep concern. Especially the Chanda, he was worried for the people’s Chanda that he was carrying that time with him.

Before he got admitted into the hospital he told me on the phone during our general talk that “I'm okay for now but I hope I don’t need you to give me ghussal”
His family shared with me later that in his last days at home he gave them a perfume to handover to me to shower it on him after performing the ghussal.

After giving Ghussal to Tariq uncle , I feel like the deprivation of not being able to give my own father his final ablution due to my adolescence has been fulfilled.

Our city Ameer Sahab remembered him in the following words at the time of Silent Prayers after the burial “today our Jamaat has lost a very sincere and selfless. May God give him a high rank in the hereafter."

No doubt in the death of Tariq uncle, I feel as if I've lost my own father.

May Allah bless his soul with an elevated status in the afterlife and give us all the strength to bear this loss.

I would start by saying thank you to everloved.com for providing us the platform to share the feelings our hearts hold about our dear Tariq Mamoo🙏
Tariq Mamoo was a real gem. He was an ocean of love and kindness for the whole humanity. He served us all from this ocean in so many different ways but we still feel thirsty and wish if we could have few more drops of his love. It is so hard to let a person like him go. Even after a few days of him passing away, I wake up in the morning and feel like I saw a bad dream. He left us all grieving too soon but I am sure he is at a very good place.
My relationship with him has always been like it is with your Mamoo (Maternal uncle). He was my khaloo but being my Ami’s cousin we always called him mamoo and he loved us back like a mamoo. He was a kind, helpful and a selfless person always putting others first. I talked to him couple days before he was put on the ventilator. He missed my call but called me back as soon as he saw the call. It was not a very long conversation but he sounded calm and thankful for recovering a little bit every day. I heard her dear daughter Mariya saying in the back that food is getting cold Abu but he finished the conversation without any rush and took time to ask about my life and as usual hanged up with lots of prayers and thanked me for inquiring about his health.
His words that will always echo my ears are “Ji beta Ji”, filled with sweetness of his love. In one conversation he would say “Ji beta”so many times that you would instantly feel a bond with him. He was at the height of all kind deeds where we can only wish to reach, a symbol of virtue, helpfulness and a very down to earth person.
May Allah bless his beautiful sole and give the family patience and strength to bear this immense loss. He will always remain in our hearts as a figure of love and kindness. Ahhh! You will be dearly missed my one and only Tariq Mamoo❤️

بچھڑا کچھ اس ادا سے کے رت ہی بدل گئ

Tariq Bhai's loss is loss to Humanity . His void will never be filled . He was loving ,selfless and compassionate person.
He was equally loved by elders and Youngers in family . His Towering character was matchless . His heart was full of love for all family. There was no event which was complete without his particiatpion.
He brought joy to wherever he went . He was humble, Generous and giving with his time and wealth,
He was connected to everyone in family and touched all of us in unforgettable way.
He was Avid photographer and gave everyone a wedding photo album.He made sure to capture beautiful moments and made them memorable.
Among his unlimited qualities was hospitality . He made sure to attend to all guests who came to his home from bottom of heart,
In every Summer Vacations ,We all family went to his home, He always picked us up from Rawalpindi Train station with lot of luggage .He also dropped us off back in couple of months.
He would take us to Zoo and other Tourist places in City. He served my mom the way no one can , He pressed her clothes, Boiled water for her shower and stood by always to serve her .
Once my mom went from Toronto and told someone that we don't find tasteful Guava in Toronto, he was listening and After that day my mom said Dinning table was never empty of Guava.
He had patience of prophets, He used to sit down and listen to all family members for hours . When we used to go to his homes ,He would take us to market which was 10 minutes walk from his home and buy us candies .
Tariq Bhai was first to arrive in all weddings and last to leave .He never ever missed any important event in the family . We fell comfortable as kids and as grown up with him.
He was known to dress very well also. He Walked a lot . My words can not justify his virtues .
He was family first man . He took care of his mom the way no one can. His love was limitless for my mom . I am indebted to him in this world and there after .
His untimely death is hard to comprehend. I wish I would have spent more time with him.
I would like to carry out his legacy and adopt his qualities of giving back. His shoes are too big to fill for me but he will become my Northstar for righteous.
He lived hundreds life in one lifetime. My heart is full of sorrow and my mind is oozing with his memories .
He is role model for me on how to live life. He has left this world with lasting impact on me and my family. Many people are calling me due to his sterling reputation and its impossible for me to hide my tears.
He was fruit of legendary noble family. He only enhanced the status of his family. He created and lived by great values.
Tariq Bhai you will be dearly missed and stay in my heart forever. Inshallah I will pay tributes to you by my actions, Unfortunately we can not bring you back since it is Will of Allah but we will never forget you and will carry out the good deeds of yours.
May his Soul rest in peace . May Allah Grant his mother ,Brothers,Sisters,Wife and daughter patience to bear his loss .
Allah Hafiz My beloved Tariq Bhai.
