The body of the former frontman of Bangladesh’s legendary band Miles and famous singer Shafin Ahmed returned home from the US on Monday.
The death of the beloved rock star at a hospital in Virginia, US, last Thursday (July 25) has sent shock waves through the country’s music industry. Shafin’s brother, Miles Group leader Hamin Ahmed, who was supposed to come to the US to claim the body on the family’s behalf but was unable to board the flight, told media on Monday that Shafin’s body arrived at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport during the day on Monday (July 29).
His first namaz-e-janaza was held at Dar al Noor Islamic Community Mosque in Virginia, on Saturday at 1 pm (US local time). Hamin Ahmed informed the media that his second janaza will be held Tuesday after Zuhr prayers at Gulshan Azad Mosque.
The iconic rockstar will then be buried at Banani Graveyard. The Kulkhani of Shafin Ahmed will be held next Friday (2 August) at Gulshan Community Mosque, next to Banani Cemetery after the Jumma prayers.
Hamin Ahmed, on behalf of the family and loved ones, has asked everyone to pray seeking forgiveness of the late Shafin Ahmed’s soul, and requested to attend his janaza and kulkhani.
