Our faith comforts us, as the Qur’an reminds us: “Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.” [Qur’an 2:156]

During this solemn time, we come together in prayer, reflection, and remembrance of his legacy, which has inspired countless individuals through education, service, and dialogue. We invite everyone to join us in praying for peace and tranquility—for him and for the community.
