Sad Demise

Dear All

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاتة

            It is with profound sorrow and deep regrets we have inform the sad demise of Haji Abubaker Qasim Pardesi - Founder, Trustee and VP of The World Memon Organization who passed away in Dubai on Tuesday (11^th Feb 2014) after a prolonged illness.

ْ  إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّآ إِلَيۡهِ رَٲجِعُونَ

To Allah we belong and to Him is our return.

He was a successful businessman, renowned social personality and a well known philanthropist. He was one of the 5 founding members of the World Memon Organisation (WMO), Founding Trustee of WMO Charitable Foundation and had held for several years a position of Vice President WMO Middle East Chapter. He always remained actively engaged in community activities and was well respected by Community in the sub-continent. With his demise Memon Community has lost one of its dedicated and sincere leader.

On behalf of the President and Members of the WMO, our heartfelt condolences go to the family and friends of Haji Abu 

We make dua'a that may Allah Subhanahu rest the departed soul in eternal peace, forgive his short comings, have mercy on him and bless him a place in Jannatul Firdous and give all of his family members strength and Sabr-e-Jameel to sustain this irreparable loss. 

Aameen!

إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَلَهُ مَا أَعْطَى وَكُلٌّ عِنْدَهُ بِأَجَلٍ مُسَمَىً فَلَتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ

"Definitely Allah has taken what belongs to Him. He has given us what belongs to Him. He has stipulated a time for everyone (which He does not change by impatience or plan). Have patience and hope for reward".

(Bukhari)

 Janaza will take place on Wednesday (12^th Feb 2014) after Asar Salah at Al-Quoz Graveyard behind Oasis Center Dubai. 

JazakAllah.
