It has been little over 9 months since my brother passed away on August 1st 2004. The past few days have been very difficult for me. I find myself thinking about him all the time. I have tried reading Quran, duas etc, but I just cannot get his picture out of my head. Speaking of which (picture), here are few of his very last pictures.

May Allah grant him Jannah and give my family sabr-e-jamil. Ameen.
His face looks a lot like my cousin (maamoon's son) who also passed away in his mid twenties in an accident (motorbike) in Karachi in 1998.
My cousin was considered one of the most handsome guys in our family. He was also one of the best body builders in Karachi. And he was an excellent person with a really exceptional sense of humor.
May Allah grant your brother a place in Jannah and may Allah give you and your family peace. Aameen.
Its never easy to cope with such a loss and it takes a long long time, I can see that after looking at my cousin's family. Allah will give you sabar though inshallah.
May ALLAH give him the best of JANNAH and may ALLAH S.W.T. Give you and your family patience and comfort... thats really sad brother.. only time can heal your soul..
Kaleem bhai, every time i read your posts about the loss of your brother, it hurts so much! :( and i didnt even know him. If i can be so hurt, how must you and your family be dealing iwth it, i dont know! May Allah grant him jannah an sabar to your and your family, Ameen.
Your brother was so handsome mashAllah. Kaleem I hope you and your family do get through this. It can't be easy at all, continue reading and praying for his maghfirat. I don't know if you read a post of mine in Life 1, where a little boy had a dream about his grandfather and how his grandfather assured him that he was in Jannat and that each time we pray for those who have passed on, they receive a better placement in Jannat.
You must miss him a lot, do you have other siblings?
kaleem one of my cousins died in a motor bike accident in his mid 20's , his family has started a website (MSN..etc) in his memory, they have posted pics and many other th9ings. all the family are members of the website . It keeps them busy and occupied and they can always keep him alive in the cyber world..
truly to Allah we belong and to him we shall return. May Allah grant him the highest rank in Jannah with our beloved nabi (allah bless him and give him peace) and forgive him for his sins.
May Allah grant your family patience and strength and make this a means for all of you to become closer to Him.
