Mohtram ahl e khaanaa aur ahl e imaan
Assalam o alaikum
Allah paak kaa laakh shukriyaa ki usne mujhe is moqaam ke liye chunaa.
Baaqi
meri taraf se aap ahl e imaan ko bhi mubaarak ho ki hum sab sachchaai
aur haq ke sath rahey aur haq wo sachchai ki khaatir aakhiratt humara
ikhtetaam ho. Ahl e khaana ko meri taraf se ghuzaarish hai ki mere
ikhtetaam par afsoos ke bajaye woh is moqaam ka ihteraam karein.
Allah paak aap sab kaa haafiz wo naasir hai..
Allah Hafiz

Respected family and all the believers.
Asalam u alikum (peace up on you)
I
thank almighty, that he has chosen me for this stature. From my side, I
want to congratulate all the believers. We all should stay with truth
and righteousness, and our end must also come on the path of truth and
righteousness. My request to my family is that instead of grieving over
my end, they should respect the stature I have achieved.
Almighty God is your greatest protector and greatest help.
I leave you in Allah's protection.
