Obituary of Abd Al-Hadi Faour Hassan Faour, member of the Ameer’s office
مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا
“Of the believers are men who are true to that which they covenanted with Allah. Some of them have paid their vow by death (in battle), and some of them still are waiting; and they have not altered in the least”
(Al-Ahzab: 23)
The Ameer of Hizb ut Tahrir, the members of the Ameer’s office, the Madhalim’sCouncil, the Central Office and Hizb ut Tahrir in general mourns.
They mourn to the Muslim Ummah the member of the Ameer’s office Abd Al-Hadi Faour Hassan Faour (Abu Mahmoud) who passed away at noon on the 22nd of Safar 1437 AH corresponding to 4th of December 2015 CE, at the age of 81.
Abu Mahmoud was an active member of Hizb ut Tahrir from its beginning, he accompanied both Sheikhs Abu Ibrahim and Abu Yousef, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy upon them. He also accompanied Hizb ut Tahrir’s present Ameer and he was their pillar and support, serious and diligent in his work for the resumption of the Islamic life through the establishment of the righteous Khilafah State. He would have loved to witness the rise of the Khilafah to gain from the goodness and reward of what Allah wills. But the Almighty passed him away to Him سبحانه وتعالى so he can attain a greater goodness and a bigger reward in Paradise inshallah:
فِي مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِنْدَ مَلِيكٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ
“Firmly established in the favour of a Mighty King”
(Al-Qamar: 55)
He was, may Allah have mercy upon him, sincere to Allah Almighty in his Imaanand true to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in following in his ﷺ example. He was honorable, and we do not commend anyone over Allah, from the ones that:
صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا
“Who are true to that which they covenanted with Allah. Some of them have paid their vow by death (in battle), and some of them still are waiting; and they have not altered in the least”
(Al-Ahzab: 23)
May Allah have mercy upon you Abu Mahmoud, your parting saddens us and we only say what Allah Almighty has commanded us to say:
الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُمْ مُصِيبَةٌ قَالُوا إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
“Who say, when a misfortune strikes them: we surely belong to Allah and to Him we shall return”
(Al-Baqarah: 156)
so to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.
Your brother ‘Ata Bin Khalil Abu Rashtah specifically and the Shabab of Hizb ut Tahrir in general
