I am the granddaughter of ******, who passed away in Colchester. She passed away in December, and she has no family or friends in the UK. Colchester Hospital contacted Gardens of Peace, after speaking to Gardens of Peace (Mr. ********) they gave my number to Idris, he contacted me in Malaysia.

We have no family, no money, and my Gran had been in the hospital for five weeks after passing. That is all I told Brother Idris, and he went quiet, i think he cry, i can hear the emotion in his voice. He then asked me to send the details he needed and assured me that he would liaise with the hospital. He also asked for permission to arrange a Muslim funeral and burial at Gardens of Peace.

Wallahi, Allah is great. I had been praying and crying for help, wondering what would happen to my Gran and her body. Within hours, Brother Idris collected her, and by the next day, she was buried with dignity. I cannot explain the pain and helplessness I felt for five weeks, and within just one day, someone I had never met helped us and took care of everything. Allah answered my prayers.

Brother, I will never forget what you have done for my Gran and for me. I pray that Allah grants you and your family the highest ranks in Jannat. When you contacted me, I looked into your charity and saw all the beautiful work you do. I pray that Allah gives you endless barakah in your life and all your work.

You were truly chosen to help my Gran, and the fact that you did everything without even asking for money is something I will never forget. My only wealth is my duas for you and your family, but if I had money, I would give it all to help you and the people you support.

I remember what you said, Pray for all the Ummah and peace. I now have a brother in London who i have never met.

May Allah bless you always. You will forever be in my prayers.

Firstly, my Dad, Ray and myself would like to say a massive thank you for all your help and organisation with the funeral yesterday. Your colleagues did an amazing job.

Secondly, we have made a donation to the charity, today.

Finally, I hope you manage to get a break from the constant emails and phone calls! Time for a holiday!

Thanks

Afzal, Rayman and Kevin

Attended the workshop Sunday at limehouse masjid. Alhumdulilah found it very beneficial and gave us a reality check. It was very emotional, brought back alot of memories from 16yrs ago.

My father in law passed away, the death was sudden and unexpected, the hospital chaplain referred me to Idris as a post mortem had to happen, the work Idris done and all that he took on board was truly remarkable, he kept me informed throughout the entire process and liaised with all departments from Coroners to Radiologists and Pathologists as well as the mortuary. May Allah reward him and the team for the work they have done and continue to do.

Alhamdulillah, I learnt so much from this workshop. It was delivered to perfection. I walked away enlightened and not feeling heavy in any way. Thank you sisters for your valuable time. Much appreciated.

Thank you for the team for their clear, and experience-based insight into this often difficult topic.

Was invaluable to watch the practical demonstration and experience the importance of it being done in a kind and dignified manner.

Greatly appreciate the time and effort of the team to share their knowledge and was clear they open to making the workshop available to anyone who was interested to learn.
