I wrote above caption about 14 years ago when a close friend of mine Dr. A A Khan died while waiting for boarding back to USA in the departure lounge of Dubai
Reflecting that we at our age are indeed in our departure Lounges
Yesterday another such friend Mr. Saeed Ghauri died while sleeping in bed at home here in Raleigh So I looked back at my old blog. Such events make you feel closer to your own last day, the very last page of your book of life after which the book will be closed.
I separated my own old Ihram (from my wife's) that after cleaning with Zamzam in Makkah-al-Mukarramah I have folded and kept for use as my Kafan
Yesterday one close family -- Dawood Ilyas son of my brother Bhaijan Meraj died with a short illness, hepatocellular carcinoma,
Popular in family retired as prof of management in LUMS
Called him Mr. Sharif when he was a couple of years old because he was such a gentleman
May Allah award him al-Jannah
