Enduring his insurmountable grief, the Cheekh actor ended his post on a hopeful note. "I can only imagine how wonderful it must be for you and Abbu to share iftar in Jannah, sending blessings to Mifra, Bushra, Farah (my sisters), and all your grandchildren. Missing you so much." He punctuated his note with the hashtag #FirstRamazanWithoutYou.

As we grieve her loss, I kindly ask you all to keep her in your thoughts and prayers. May her soul find eternal peace," he wrote, asking for prayers and reflection during the difficult time.

Aslam's note revealed the depth of his loss, as he remembered his mother for her beautiful qualities which were evident in the love she shared with her family. The note was accompanied by a video of his mother in the hospital. The sombre clip brought out an intimate and vulnerable side to Aslam.
