Prayer request...

Re: Prayer request...

TS My uncle passed away. It has already been over two weeks since his funeral. My dad still goes to work, his company is phasing everybody out slowly as it prepares for shut down. He has been sad because he lost his brother so we haven't really spoken on the job search so he doesn't get too conflicted/helpless. I think we just have to trust Allah. He will find a way.

Re: Prayer request...

Oh Lord. Sorry to hear. May he rest in peace. How old was he and what did he die of. Also, how many children did he have and how old ?

So how many weeks/months does your dad have left at his current job ?

Re: Prayer request...

Innalillahe wa inna illahi rajeoon.
May Allah grant your family peace and patience to deal with this very difficult time.
You are in my prayers.

Re: Prayer request...

Depending on his job status the ultimate phase out is going to take up to a year, they are not sure yet the first group leaves in January 2013. My uncle is actually my dad's eldest brother he was 56 years old, he died of a brain hemmorage I think, he was later pronounced brain dead I think within an hour of my last post here that day, he left behind a family of high school kids and one college aged, he had only been in the states for a few years...

Re: Prayer request...

we never really know what could happen to our families in just a few hours.......

Re: Prayer request...

^I know life does that to you. Our last Eid dinner and our Eid ul-Adha dinner are going to be completely different atmospheres. Good times will come again. One day....Allah can change anything.

Re: Prayer request...

It's encouraging to hear that at least there is some time for the final phase out.
Hopefully he can get maximum time out of it and at the same time has enough time to think and act on what to do next.

Re: Prayer request...

Sorry to hear about your loss. Your uncle was young. May he rest in peace.

Re: Prayer request...

Sorry to hear about your loss.
Inna illahe wa inna illahi rajeon.

Re: Prayer request...

Thank you everyone.

Re: Prayer request...

Did your uncle have a previous indication that something was wrong ?
If this was out of the blue, it must be devastating for his family.
It's horrible just thinking how they are going to deal with this loss emotionally and financially.

Boy, your family is going through some tough time and all so quickly.

Life is so strange and unpredictable.

Re: Prayer request...

It was completely unpredictable. He was not even sick leading up to it, he just went to sleep that night and never woke up. Its very devastating for the family when they all depended on him for practically everything.

Re: Prayer request...

:(

Re: Prayer request...

:( Life is what it is. Allah will take care.

Re: Prayer request...

May lord bless your uncle's soul and give peace to your family in this hard time. Yess life is what it is, God will take care of you and all of us.
