"...My brother, Sina. 🕊️ Uncle Sina! You never tried to be iconic. You just were. You left your mark on our lives like fingerprints.

"If someone needed shelter, your door was already open, your home already theirs. Most times you made us cry with laughter a wrong word, said in the right sentence or your one liners.

"The joke living between us. You treated me like family. You trained me like family. Made effort feel light. Made showing up feel easy. “Anytime, sister. Come on!” You spoke of quieter dreams to travel,to learn, to shed the noise, the kind of ambitions that sound like peace..."

To Latif, also called Kevin, she described him as someone who had seen beyond the world. She recounted what Latif told her about the afterlife not to long ago.

According to her, he said the afterlife was not frightening and felt familiar like somewhere the soul remembers before the mind catches up. She wrote:

"My brother, Kev… 🕊️ you not long ago told me you’d seen beyond this world we argue with, in a dream that stayed with you.

"You said the afterlife wasn’t frightening, that it felt familiar like somewhere the soul remembers before the mind catches up. I told you I didn’t believe in it. said I needed proof, said I trusted only what I could touch.

"You had no doubt and said, “You’ll see.” Not in challenge. Not in fear. But with peace. And now I sit with your words, not trying to understand them, only holding them the way you held your faith quietly, without force. If you were right, Kev, if the place you saw is real, then I hope it met you gently and you have our brother Sina with you. Rest In Peace."

"This is our ummah. It’s because of his dawah and sincerity of character and deep devotion and love for God which has touched thousands, now look at how God put the love of our brother into the hearts of thousands. That’s God given. How can we still deny God? People from all over the world rushed to attend both your funerals.Everyday we see a podcast or post about Latif, you’ve given dawah even in your death. May Allah grant both our beloved brothers Jannah and forgive them. For God is the Most Merciful and Most Gracious. To God we belong and to Him we return."
