Deaf-mute son recites Al-Fatihah in sign language at mother's grave, touches millions
Hafizi is seen standing beside his mother's grave, his hands moving gracefully to convey silent prayers. By DANIAL HAKIM 24 Jun 2025 01:22pm The footage shows Hafizi Hamdan, 25, reciting Al-Fatihah in sign language, then gently waving goodbye to his mother, Salawati Ahmad, who passed away last August from ovarian cancer. Photo: TikTok / @Hasmalina10 SHAH ALAM - A visit to a mother's grave became a poignant expression of love and loss when 25-year-old Hafizi Hamdan, who is deaf and mute, was filmed reciting prayers in sign language. The now-viral TikTok video has touched millions, offering a silent yet powerful reminder of the depth of a child's devotion. In the video, uploaded by his aunt Hasmalina Ahmad, Hafizi is seen standing beside his mother's grave, his hands moving gracefully to convey silent prayers. His mother, Salawati Ahmad, passed away last August from ovarian cancer. The footage, filmed at Kampung Mahang Muslim Cemetery in Seremban, shows Hafizi reciting Al-Fatihah in sign language before gently waving goodbye to his mother. 'He doesn't speak, but he shows it through his actions. His prayers, his longing for his mother – everyone can feel it, even without words,' Hasmalina said. Hafizi has lived with hearing and speech impairments since birth, yet those around him describe him as deeply aware, affectionate and responsible. Hafizi Hamdan (left) with his aunt Hasmalina Ahmad. He is the eldest of two siblings and now lives with his grandmother, under the care of Hasmalina's family. Through a WhatsApp message to Malay daily Harian Metro, Hafizi said everything felt quiet after his mother's passing. 'I still miss her, even now, because we were close. That's why I often visit her grave. 'Each time I visit, I will pray for her. In the video that went viral, I was reciting Al-Fatihah before saying goodbye,' he reportedly said. The video, posted by @Hasmalina10, has since gathered nearly two million views and over 2,000 comments — many of them filled with emotional responses from netizens moved by Hafizi's pure, unspoken love. 'Allahu, it's heartbreaking how he expressed his longing through sign language,' wrote a user named Jeffry. 'So sad, he's reciting a prayer for his beloved,' commented Rabuyah Abas. 'A longing with no end,' typed user Nor Rita, echoing what many felt watching the brief but powerful moment. Alternatively, Hasmalina highlighted how Hafizi is not only affectionate but also incredibly hardworking. Often, he now helps run a school canteen in Oakland, Seremban, alongside her. Beyond the viral moment, Hafizi's silent act of love has become a powerful reminder for many to value family, honour loved ones, and appreciate that love transcends language and ability. 'Most of the comments were positive. Many said they learned something from the video and have become more appreciative of their parents while they're still around,' Hasmalina said. She hopes the video opens more eyes to the humanity and depth of people with disabilities. 'They are not less. They just express things differently. But the love is the same — maybe even deeper,' she mused. More Like This

#SHOWBIZ: Azura Aziz relieved that eldest son is finally a Malaysian citizen
KUALA LUMPUR: Singer Azura Aziz is relieved and grateful that her eldest son, Seiful Islam Ali, 22, affectionately known as Bubu, has finally obtained Malaysian citizenship after a lengthy process. In a recent interview with Harian Metro, Azura revealed the numerous obstacles she and her Egyptian husband, Cheb Ali, faced when their three Egyptian-born sons moved with them to Malaysia in 2017. "These problems arose from our lack of knowledge regarding the law," she explained. "Initially, we frequently travelled between Malaysia and Egypt. Our first two sons, Bubu and Safiyurrahman Ali, or Totti, were both born in Egypt and automatically acquired Egyptian citizenship as their father is an Egyptian national." Azura added that they later decided to prolong their stay in Egypt so their children could continue their studies at Al-Azhar University. "It was during that time that our third son, Nusratuddin Ali, or Mimo, was born." However, political instability following the Arab Spring forced the family to return to Malaysia in 2017. "That's when our difficulties truly began," Azura recounted. "Every year, we had to apply for student passes for the boys. They weren't eligible for textbook loans and were discouraged from participating in school activities." Azura and Cheb applied for Malaysian citizenship for their sons in September 2018. "After Bubu completed his Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination, things became particularly challenging," she said. "The Immigration Department informed us he could only remain in Malaysia if he attended a private university, which we simply couldn't afford." Good news finally arrived in July 2024, when the family received a letter from the Home Ministry confirming that their sons' applications for citizenship had been approved. Totti, 20, received his MyKad in January, while Bubu, 21, first had to relinquish his Egyptian citizenship. Currently, Bubu and Totti are studying at the National Arts, Culture and Heritage Academy (Aswara), while Mimo is in Year Five of primary school. "Thank you to the government," Azura expressed.
