Rashid AlKooheji

Eight Months ago I received a call from my brother "Flana your friend's brother past away" .. "Whaaat !! OMG" .. "Yeah she doesn't know yet please make sure it stays that way until the family knows then they'll tell her" .. "I'm still in shock but ok"

My friend's brother lives in the UK. It was his last year studying there. He past away from a heart attack caused by stress.

Later that day people started asking me "Is it true that Rashid past away?" I reply please keep it on the low his family doesn't know yet ..

But guess what they do :) they start sending Broadcasts on the bbm yed3oon lah

Ya nas stop broadcasting .. I know you mean well bs ahleh mayadron .. ymken yo9al lehum o 5awateh ysogon wla fi mekan 3aam ..

By the end of that day they told the father who fainted straight away and was took to the hospital

My friend called her brother in-law .. Whys my dad's phone off? he replied oh we're all fishing fil Durra .. Just go to sleep we'll see you tomorrow

She wakes up the next morning and her phone is out of service y3ni mag6oo3 .. she wonders why and tries to connect it to the wifi .. Once she does that she receives broadcasts about her brother

Can you imagine the shock she was in .. and to send her a broadcast?! She automatically assumed it wasn't him .. she kept pinging people "Who died? which Rashid?" and of course no1 answers her

She tried using the house phone .. It doesn't work .. her brotehr in-law cut all lines so people wouldn't be able to tell them .. her sister came and told her baba is in the hospital they say he fell when he was fishing .. and there they told them to pray for him and all

Rashid's body was still in the UK because of the ejra2at they had to take before sending him back home .. The body arrived 3 days later and the family didn't want anyone to be there or wait for anyone because as it is "ekram el mayet dafneh" and they didn't tell his sisters because they didn't want their last look at their brother dead since 3 days ago ..

But again guess what my friend receives :) "Rashid is now buried and munkar o nakeer are asking him about ........" CAN YOU JUST IMAGINE ! she gets a broadcast that he died and another that he was buried ! How can people send his sisters these broadcasts

My point is from this post is that be careful with what you send people .. I know el mayet ye7taj el du3a2 bs not to send it to family members .. Its her brother .. I wouldn't want any1 to be put in that situation .. Its hard enough to hear that from family members .. Imagine a broadcast

I know this post is shwaya depressing and I apologize for the sad post but I just had to try to get this msg through ..





Love,
