Our brother Yasin Abu Aisha became emotional when leading us for Fajr at the Masjid this morning due to the news of the death of our brother Muzay. Who is from the brothers who established Masjid al-istiqama (Toronto). May Allah have mercy upon him. He called us before he died to ask if the mushafs he donated for the Masjid had arrived. He said he wants the mushafs to benefit him in rewards.

Those martyred in Palestine due to collapsed buildings; are they washed, shrouded, and prayed over?
