Bismillah.

لَبَّيْك اللَّـٰهُمَّ لَبَّيْك، لَبَّيْك لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ لَبَّيْك، إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ وَالنِّعْمَةَ لَكَ وَالْمُلْكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ.

As I prepare to leave for the sacred pilgrimage of Hajj, my heart is overwhelmed with gratitude, humility, and reflection.

This journey is not just a trip—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime invitation from Allah ﷻ. A call that so many yearn for, and I am deeply humbled to have been chosen to respond: Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik… I am at Your service, O Allah.

To my family, friends, and everyone who has ever crossed paths with me:
If I have ever wronged you in any way—through words, actions, or silence—I sincerely ask for your forgiveness. Life moves fast, and sometimes our intentions get lost in the noise. Please pardon me for any shortcomings, knowingly or unknowingly.

In Madinah, I will send your salām to our beloved Prophet ﷺ.
In Makkah, I will pray for your happiness and peace.
On Arafah—the most powerful day of duʿā—I will remember you all as I raise my hands to the sky, asking Allah to forgive, bless, and guide us all.

Please remember me in your prayers during these sacred days.
And may Allah invite every soul reading this to experience the beauty of Hajj.

Labbaik Ya Rabb. Always and forever.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un

It is with great sorrow and heavy heart that I share the passing of my father Mr. Muhammad Fazil in Karachi today !

My father was a pious, humble and loving man. He always kept Allah’s commandments ahead of him while making decisions small or big. He devoted his entire life preaching islam and always commanded his children, their spouses, his grand children and his friends and colleagues to pray five time salah, read quran with translation and fear Allah. He particularly used to say, “never disobey Allah for small gain of this duniyaaa”. As his children, whenever we talked to him, he used to only talk about taking care of our Akhiraaa. Till his last breadth, he continued preaching islam and guided us with quran and hadees books. May Allah give us taufeeq to continue his legacy and become a sadq e jaria for him. May Allah SWT forgive his shortcomings, accept his good deeds, elevate his status, enlighten and widen his grave, and make his journey easy from here onwards to Jannah.

Please recite Surah Faitha and make dua for his maghfirah.

O Allah, forgive him and have mercy on him and grant him peace and pardon him. O Allah, Receive him with honour and make his place of entry (in grave) spacious. Wash him with water, snow, and ice and cleanse him of his faults like a white garment is cleansed of stains. O Allah, substitute for him an abode better than his abode, a family better than his family and a spouse better than his spouse. Admit him into Paradise and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire.
