The body of Najwa Shihab's husband, Ibrahim Sjarief Assegaf, was buried at TPU Jeruk Purut, South Jakarta, on Wednesday (21/5/2025). Previously, the body was prayed over at the mosque near the funeral home, in the Jeruk Purut area, Cilandak Timur, South Jakarta.

One of those who followed the burial process until the end was Quraish Shihab, the father of Najwa. Here are some photos of him!

According to Quraish Shihab, the heavy rain accompanying the funeral procession of his late son-in-law is a sign of God's mercy.

Quraish Shihab mentioned one of God's words that the heavens do not weep for the disobedient.

"For me, this is a sign of God's mercy. God says in the Quran, the disobedient, the heavens do not weep for them. It means no rain falls," said Quraish Shihab.

According to Quraish, Najwa accepted her husband's departure with a demeanor full of fortitude. He mentioned that his daughter completely surrendered her life's destiny to God's will.

"Surrender, acceptance, everything that is determined by God is the best. Indeed the heart is sad, the eyes are tearful, but never utter anything except what is pleasing to God," said Quraish Shihab.

"Of course, everyone initially will not be ready to lose. But those who are aware will realize that it belongs to God," he said.

In the eyes of the mother-in-law, Ibrahim is seen as a good person who is loved by many. "He is a good person. If he weren't a good person, so many wouldn't have come," she said.
