Shoaib Kibria of 17E no more……

Thu, Jul 29, 2021 The following message was received from Firoze Ali in Australia.

Dear All,

As-salamu-alaikum.

With a heavy heart, we would like to inform you that we lost another Mariner, Md. Shoaib Kibria of (Marine Academy 17E) .

Inna-lilla-hir-wa-inna-ilahir-razeun.

He was found dead in the hotel room yesterday 28th July  afternoon at  Hotel Agus in Darwin, where he stayed to join the  vessel Coral Adventurer . Recently he signed off from another ship in Western Australia and decided not to go back to Sydney due to COVID 19 lockdown. There is no travel restriction between Darwin and Perth; hence he was not required to be in quarantine.

Md. Ali (16E) bhai joined the same ship a few days ago where Shoaib Kibria bhai  was supposed to join . When he did not check out, the hotel employee found him dead in his bed. Md. Ali (16E) bhai identified the body.

The police have taken his body for autopsy. Due to the current COVID situation and lockdown in Sydney and as per the family’s wish, arrangements are in progress to complete the Janaza at Darwin Mosque and then the body will be taken to Sydney for burial.

Sadaruddin 19th batch with others inshallah would be co-ordinating that.

 Shoaib Kibria Bhai has left behind two daughters in their late teens and early 20s, they live in Parramatta, Sydney . May we support the young family to go through this hard time & May Allah make it easy for them.

May Allah grant  Md. Shoaib Kibria Bhai Jannah.

Thanks & Regards, 

Firoze Ali
