Assalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un.

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Sr. Zubaida Begum, a native of Karachi, Pakistan. She returned to her Creator on November 27, 2025. She was the beloved mother of Sr. Rubina Mohammed and mother-in-law of Br. Irfan Mohammed.

May Allah ﷻ envelop her in His infinite mercy, accept her righteous deeds, forgive her shortcomings, and grant her the highest place in Jannat al-Firdaus. Aameen.

We kindly request our brothers and sisters to join in the Salat al-Janazah and, if possible, accompany the burial, as these acts carry immense reward in our faith.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Whoever prays the funeral prayer will have one qirāṭ (a mountain) of reward, and whoever follows it until burial will have two qirāṭs.” (Bukhari & Muslim)

Salat al-Janazah will, insha’Allah, be held after the 1:30 PM Jumu’ah prayer at:

Islamic Center of Maryland (ICM)
19411 Woodfield Road
Gaithersburg, MD 20879

The burial will follow at:

Al Firdaus Memorial Gardens
3845 New Design Road
Frederick, MD 21703

Please keep the deceased and her family in your du‘a.
May Allah reward you abundantly for your prayers and support.
