Goodbye Baba (Dad)
It was Friday the 9th of May 2025. A typical Friday. I woke up made coffee, started my work and expected the usual family video call.
As usual, my phone rings. I see both my mum and dad on the call. I had this bug that I was fixing and a queue of pull requests to review, so I quickly say good morning, ask how they are doing and say goodbye. I didn’t know this would be the last goodbye.
My dad had a normal day, he woke up and called me and my mum. My brother had breakfast with him and went to Friday prayers with him. A typical Friday routine.
I will miss you dad. I looked up to you in everything in life. You never held a grudge, you never hurt anyone, and you loved sharing your knowledge and your craft.
ان لله وان اليه راجعون
