According to Quraish, Najwa accepted her husband's departure with a full attitude of patience. He mentioned that his daughter completely surrendered her life's fate to God's will.   "Surrendered, accepting, everything that is determined by God, that is the best. Indeed the heart is sad, the eyes are watery, but never utter anything except what is pleasing to God," said Quraish Shihab at TPU Jeruk Purut, South Jakarta, Wednesday (21/5/2025).

Furthermore, Quraish also described Ibrahim as a good person who was loved by many. He assessed that the large number of mourners present was evidence of his son-in-law's goodness during his life.   "He is a good person. If he weren't a good person, so many wouldn't have come," he said.

In the midst of profound loss, Quraish also recounted that Najwa had once talked about the unpreparedness to face separation. Nevertheless, he understands that everything owned ultimately belongs to God.   "Of course, everyone initially will not be ready for loss. But those who are aware will realize that it belongs to God," he said.

As a form of final respect, Quraish also conveyed condolences according to his religious teachings. He invited all those left behind to remember that life and death are God's decree.

“The condolence that is taught by religion is Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun. We indeed belong to God, it is natural for Him to call us. And we will all return,” he concluded.
