May the blessings of our father god Allah be with you and your family especially during this time, the passing of your father. "Death is no enemy of man; it is a friend who, when the work of life is done, just cuts the cord that binds the human boat to earth, that it may sail on smoother seas."
We extend our heartful expression of love to you all during your time of breavement.

Peace,
