This week, a special Friday Reflections on the life of HM Queen Elizabeth II, sharing my reflections and thoughts on the United Kingdom’s longest reigning monarch, an extraordinary and inspirational leader, who lead through personal example, immense dignity and grace. May Allah ﷻ eternally bless her soul.

May Allah ﷻ have mercy upon the souls of HM Queen Elizabeth II and her beloved husband, HRH The Prince Philip, and may they be reunited in Paradise. May Allah ﷻ grant patience and steadfastness to HM King Charles III and his family, and bless them with patience and steadfastness at this difficult time.
Al-Fatihah. Amin. 🤲🏻🌹💐
