"Respected family and all the believers.
Asalam-u-alikum (peace up on you)
I thank almighty, that he has chosen me for this destiny. From my side, I want to congratulate all the believers. We all should stay with truth and righteousness, and our end must also come on the path of truth and righteousness. My request to my family is that instead of grieving over my end, they should respect the destiny I have achieved.
Almighty God is your greatest protector and greatest help.
I leave you in Allah's protection."
