Allah granted him many high positions in life, and his final post was no less than distinguished. But the ultimate honor came with martyrdom in the path of Allah, a level so revered that even angels would envy it, and the heavens themselves would take pride.
He attained this martyrdom on a blessed Friday, in the very moment of prayer. Scholars say those who pass away on Friday are spared accountability in their graves, but martyrs, regardless of the day, are always alive and beyond such judgments.
His absence is a great loss—an irreplaceable void. A deep sadness grips the heart, similar to the grief felt upon the martyrdom of Hakim Muhammad Saeed. Will these shining stars leave Pakistan’s skies dimmer? Is this the fate of our land?
