Obituary of Sameem Zahir Ahmed
We are sad to announce the demise of Respected
... Surely, to Allah we belong and to Him shall we return. [2:157]
Obituary from the family.
Sameem was the beloved son of Zahir Chaudry and Nighat Gul of Tabora, Tanzania, Husband of Sayada Ahmed and Father of Neha Ahmed and Mohamed Ahmed.
He was a man of deep faith, even in the most trying times and had a strong attachment to the Jamaat. He would do Tabligh regularly, including in his home town of Tabora.
Sameem's kindness and charming smile were a light for those who crossed paths with him. He was a pillar of strength for his wife and children, a father figure for his brothers and sisters, and a beloved uncle to the many nieces and nephews that he adored. His honesty, his quiet love for the small enchantments of life, his dedication to seeking knowledge and his patience in the face of challenges have been an example to his loved ones.
No words can express the enormity of this loss. We pray that Allah Ta'alah encompass our father in His compassion and mercy.
In Loving Memory
Sameem Ahmed
