Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un. (Indeed, to Allah we belong, and to Him we shall return.)
The Tallinding North Development Committee announces with heavy hearts the passing of our father and mentor, Mr. Modou Lamin Badjie, affectionately known as Hoya. Hoya was not just a member of our development committee; he was its heartbeat.
Hoya was a cornerstone of our community. His tireless dedication to local initiatives and his visionary leadership shaped Tallinding into what it is today. We have lost a titan of development and a true friend to all.
• Janaza/Burial: Tomorrow at 14:00 (2:00 PM)
• Location: Sicap Cemetery
From infrastructure to social welfare, Hoya’s hand was visible in every positive change we’ve seen. As we prepare to lay him to rest tomorrow, we ask for your prayers for his family and our grieving neighborhood.
Hoya lived by this principle. May his soul rest in perfect peace, and may his life serve as a blueprint for our youth to build a better future.
We pray that Allah (SWT) forgives his shortcomings, widens his grave with light, and grants him the highest station in Jannatul Firdaus. We also pray for the youth of Tallinding to find inspiration in his footsteps and carry his torch of service forward.
