السلام عليكم ورحمة

I would like to say a few words
about my friend Norli. She and I have been friends since university, which was
over twenty years ago. We met during our
first year, when we registered ourselves at Block F of UUM Telekom Residential
College. Norli was elected as the Head
of the block. As this was the first time we both lived away from home, Norli
and I bonded instantly.
Norli was from Kajang, Selangor. She was a cheerful person by nature,
approachable, hard-working, intelligent, caring and very thoughtful person. She
was very close to her friends and had a lot of people who cared about her.
After university Norli and I
remained good friends. So happens we ended
up working for the same organizations.
She was placed at the Marketing Division, whilst I at the International
Division (now Grp Regulatory Div). One of Norli’s best traits was
that she always lived her life to the fullest and loved to laugh and smile.
When I was experiencing a crisis in my career a few years back, she was there
for me. Only Allah can repay your good
deeds, dear friend.
Norli married an old university
mate. They were blessed with 4 children.
The last time I met Norli was in
December 2011 at An-Nur
Specialist Hospital
in Bandar Baru Bangi. And only a few
months later I found out that she was diagnosed with nasal cancer. She was admitted to Pantai Specialist
Hospital on 03.09.2012
for lung infection that damaged her heart valve.
On 04.09.2012, Arifin, Kak Zaimah,
Saniah and I went to visit Norli at the ICU of Pantai Specialist Hospital. We could only watch her from outside the
glass room. There the sister informed us
that she was initially admitted to the Beacon Hospital
for fever due to the infection to her chemo port.
At Pantai Specialist
Hospital, Norli was
scheduled for an operation to remove her chemo port on 05.09.2012 and heart
valve operation on 08.09.2012. Both
operations were later aborted because of her instability. The reciting of Yassin and “Hajat” prayers
were arranged. Get well soon Norli…
However on 07.09.2012 at 09:41pm,
I received a called from Kak Sokdah informing of her passing.
Rest In Peace Norli Azila Fatahul
Ariffin…الفَاتِحَة
Al Fatihah buat Allahyarhamah Norli, kita semua kehilangan seorang sahabat sejati.. moga Allah Tempatkan ruhnya bersama-sama kekasih-kekasihnya..Aminn
