With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Ali Abdiqafar Ahmed, the beloved son of our respected community member & SCERDO board treasurer, Abdiqafar Ali Ahmed, who returned to Allah (SWT) earlier today at the University Hospital.

Janazah prayer will be held on Monday, May 11, 2026, after Dhuhr prayer at Al Rashid Mosque. Burial will follow at Edmonton Muslim Cemetery.

We kindly ask the community to attend, keep the family in your prayers, and share this post so others may join in honoring him and supporting the family during this difficult time.

May Allah (SWT) shower him with His infinite mercy, forgive his shortcomings, expand and illuminate his grave, and grant him the highest level of Jannah. May Allah also grant patience and strength to his loved ones.

Ameen.
