Takziah buat Hafifi


My friend Hafifi Hafidz, the former Harian Metro editor, is tested yet again by the Almighty.
A few years ago, he was diagnosed with cancer. He beat the cancer. Yesterday Hafifi lost his 7-year old boy to a heart ailment.
After the burial in Shah Alam this morning, I could offer only a hug. I could not utter a word of comfort. There is none.

Innalillah & Alfatihah.

  6. My mother is a two-time cancer survivor, and amid all the pain she said she would always keep holding on because of her children. To have lost a child to something you know how hard is... such grief is unimaginable. My deepest condolences.

  7. My deepest condolences to Mr. Hafifi & family.

    Know that his son has gone to somewhere better. Somewhere beyond the unholiness of the world we live in.

    Do not cry, Mr. Hafifi. I'm sure your son wouldn't have wanted that.

    Al-Fatihah.

    A line from Lord of the Rings rings true.

    A father should not have to bury his son.

  12. Some go old
    Some go young
    It is part of life
    The beginning and the end

    Across the untapped boundary
    Our minds can imagine
    The smiling angels running around
    Life must be bliss

    Only we can’t take it
    Life can’t be gone
    When the children are young
    They haven’t tested yet
    The strength of their convictions

    I say we never know
    In the children’s minds
    We think they are angels
    Bringing cheers and smile

    God knows why
    He brings them home
    Testing our faith our believe
    Crying to console our souls
    It is God we must know

    Test of faith
    Abundance in our minds
    Like Jacob one mustn’t give up hope
    For the rewards will arrive
    Stay on it enjoy our blessing

    To Hafifi
    May Allah continues to guide
    Giving you strength to live
    For the journey is never ending
    May He continues to bless
    You and your family

  18. They say god sends down his test only to those who can bear it,

    Datuk Hafifi is a stronger person than many of us to have made it through one and be sent another one.

    I hope his family will rally round and support each other...

    Al Fatehah, salam takziah buat Hafifi serta keluarga.

    Both my parents died same year just 5months apart. I was choked with sadness for months.

    And just about to get over them, 2years later my husband died at a very young age, I was totally dazed.

    Turn to the Quran, it will greatly help.

    setiap yang bernyawa akan mati. Manusia yang bijak adalah yang sentiasa memperingati maut dan buat persediaan untuk menghadapi maut dengan amal yang baik.Itulah islam hakiki. janganlah kita yang hidup sibuk buat hal nak jatuhkan orang lain. Maut itu dekat dengan kita.Hadis nabi beritahu malaikat maut ziarahi kita setiap hari 70 kali. So siapalah kita ?

  27. Takziah. Allah mengambilnya untuk memberikannya kehidupan yang lebih baik iaitu Syurga. Saya dapat merasakan kehilangan saudara, dan saya pasti ia tak akan hilang sampai bila-bila tapi percayalah, time would heals the paim- not to forget, but to make it bearable.

    "When I am in Syurga will they know my shirt size? And the colour pencils that I like?" The late, young Mohd Hafizuddin, had asked his mother in hospital.
    When his mother, Datin Azlin, related this to us, her women friends, at the mosque before the burial, there was not a dry eye.
    Indeed he is in a better place, Alin and Hafifi.
    Al Fatehah.

    Dato seorang yang amat yakin dengan diri dan kuat. Itu telah membawa Dato mengharungi banyak dugaan di BH dan di luar BH. Kenapa ia berlaku, itu adalah kehendak Tuhan. Ya ini semua adalah ujian Tuhan dan manusia mendapat ujian ini dengan cara yg berbeza-beza.

    Takziah dan terus kuat dan sentiasa akui keesaannya.

  46. To Datuk and Datin,
    Salam takziah daripada saya dan keluarga. Memang ujian datang dan pergi amat menguji kita. Saya tahu Datuk dan Datin orang yang tabah dan pemergian Hafizudin semakin menjadikan anda sekeluarga semakin rapat.

    Yes, teringat cerita Datin petang itu tentang soalan arwah mengenai saiz bajunya, saiz kasutnya dan tentang warna pensil kegemarannya. Dan pada malam sebelum pemergian arwah, rakan-rakan di ibupejabat berkongsi junk food yang Datuk bawa ke pejabat dan Datuk `sorok; daripada arwah...

    Ternyata Allah lebih menyayanginya dan saya akan ingat tarikh pemergian arwah - dua minggu selepas pemergian emak saya...

    Al-Fatihah saya untuk semua yang telah pergi.
