Yusra's obituary

The one perennial truth of all of mankind is that you will die and so will everyone else.

This has been true since the beginning of time and will be till the

end, death is the one universal inescapable commonality. Rich or poor,

genius or dumb, everyone will parish. The Quran tells the Muslim this

exact message,

“Wherever you may be, death will overtake you, even if you should be within towers of lofty construction.” (4:78)

The thought of your death can give you strength and clarity, it will

keep you concentrated on what’s truly important and allows you to detach

yourself from the trivial fluctuations of day to day life we trap

ourselves in. It is a very powerful concept if understood deeply.

إِنَّا لِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ

The translation of this phrase inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un is

“Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Allah we shall return.”

Inna – meaning Indeed, truly, surely or ‘verily, we’.

Li-llahi – We belong to Allah.

Wa Inna – Wa meaning “and” and inna again meaning “indeed, we”

ilayhi – towards him.

Rajiun – Will Return.Yusra was a caring mother  of 3 and a loving wife, who prioritized her family over her self every chance she could when it came. We must do what she wanted and continue to grow and prosper, if not for ourselves but for her and continue to make her proud. A celebration of life will occur in Yusras honor We invite all those whose hearts have been touched by Yusra to join us, at the family's home on 10/17/22 after afternoon prayer. Please contact Mohammed Shoman with any questions.
