We are sad to announce the passing of one of our founding members.
Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un
Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return
It is with deep sorrow that the Muslim Youth Foundation announces the passing of one of its founding members and long-standing trustees, Hajji Arshad Ahmed, who passed away this morning.
Hajji Arshad Ahmed was among the earliest pioneers who helped establish the Muslim Youth Foundation (MYF) over forty years ago. He dedicated his life to serving Islam and supporting the Muslim community in Manchester and across the UK. His sincere efforts, leadership, and vision helped shape the foundation and countless initiatives that continue to impact lives to this day.
He was a devoted husband to Balqees and a cherished father to Zahda, Anjum, Yasmin, Farouk, Amar, and Sahra.
We pray that Allah Almighty forgives his shortcomings, accepts his good deeds, grants him a place among the righteous in the highest ranks of Jannah, and brings comfort and patience to his loved ones.
Please remember him in your duas.
