KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 24 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today shared the sad news of the death of his elder brother, Idrus Ibrahim.
In a Facebook post, Anwar said he received the heartbreaking news while returning to Malaysia from a three-day working visit to China.
“It is difficult for me to express this sense of loss when someone who shared so many memories throughout my life is now gone. Only Allah SWT knows how heavy my heart is in accepting this reality.
“I regret not being able to be by his side in his final moments, but I accept this with resignation even as my heart is still trying to come to terms with a separation we were never prepared to face,” he said.
The prime minister also prayed for the deceased to be forgiven for his shortcomings, showered with mercy and placed among Allah’s faithful servants who do good deeds.
He also asked the public and friends to offer prayers and recite Al-Fatihah for the deceased.
“Thank you for all the memories and kindness he left behind, all of which will remain etched in our memories and hearts,” he said.
