"May Allah forgive him, have mercy on him. Give him strength and pardon him. Be generous to him and cause his entrance to be wide and wash him with water and snow and hail. Cleanse him of his transgressions as white cloth is cleansed of stains. May Allah enter him into paradise and protect him from the punishment of the grave and punishment of the Hell fire.
"Semoga amalan papa diterima Allah SWT. See you papa. Your daughter Ira (His nickname for me)," tulisnya.
