FORMER MAYOR SHARES TRIBUTE TO HIS MOTHER
Delihüseyin announced his mother's passing in a social media post, recalling her devotion to prayer and the Quran.
He quoted her as saying: “My son, after every morning prayer, I read the Quran until you leave for work.”
In his tribute, he described his mother as someone who would immediately turn away from worldly affairs and attend to prayer whenever she heard the call to prayer.
He prayed for her soul to rest in paradise and for her rank in the hereafter to be elevated.
