few days ago i have lost my brother. he was killed in military helicopter personnel casting exercise. when i read his log book, he mentioned this forum and he loved to be here (he said that 'it was where peace was nurtured among the users'). i don't have any clue about his profile or his username here. i would appreciate your help so that i can trace back his posts. here is some clues about him:
1. he was indonesian native
2. he was a catholic and embraced islam in his teen
3. he was an oral surgeon (graduated from University of Indonesia and took his postgrad at Hong Kong Uni)
4. his real name (if he ever mentioned to you) was Richard Stanley Pramudito, we called him Richie, and he changed his name recently into Rehmat Salahuddin Pramudito.
6. he was in marine force in 2004, being discharged, and being redrafted (until he got the accident).
thanks for your helps and it is my pleasure to be here.
....thanks for bringing this up...... i do appreciate it.
...suddenly I'm proud of my Batavian root....
InshaAllah you can meet him again

SubhanAllah This is the kind of stuff that brings our inevitable reality so bright and so close we can feel it and it gives us chills.
May Allah make it easy on you and your family with this lost.
This reminds you so much of what youre reality shall be someday, even though we forget so often, and although we think the 'normal' people are always going to be around. SubhanAllah
I know people on this forum personally, and it sends chills in me to think that one day i could be the topic of discussion, having one of them post that i've died and me being the one in the ground unable to know of what people say of me, of good or of bad. Being the one being sat up and questioned as to how i spent my time and my prayers and my affairs on this earth. Allahuma
SubhanAllah!! I do appreciate you joining this forum for two reasons, the 1st for benefit for yourself and prehaps you can learn what peace your brother ( rahimahullah) found here.
And second because it benefitted and reminded me of what shall come to past, rather i prepare for it or neglect it, rather i accept it or deny it, rather i want it or dont want it.....the inevitible, DEATH. The one no one ever seems to be ready for, but it doesnt wait until youre ready, it decides when its ready, and away you go . Allahu Akbar!
May Allah have mercy on your brother, put him amongst those whom He loves in the Jannah and make him those who are sucessful on that day Allahuma Ameen!
May Allah make all of us on this forum who are still able to read this, and still have a chance to take heed and to better ourselves and catch ourselves, do so!! Ameen
May Allah make us amongst those people whom He loves, and make our departing easy and our stay in the grave peacful and our standing on that day graceful, easy, and sucessful Yaa rabbul 3alameen AMEEN!

:enough!: Getting entirely fed up with the foolishness :enough!:
I can't stop thinking about him, he was just answering posts the other day, seemed so hopeful, warm, full of life and caring, fantastic sense of humor, just seemed like the sort of fellow who'd give you the shirt off his back.. I keep hoping this is just a "cyber death", like he got boared with us and wants a hiatus...Sobhan Allah.. Allah yerhamo..I think I have had a total of two posts or so a reply to him, he just gave it his all and was sincere and what a rare event it is on a forum... Sob7an Allah, I see all these great people passing on and it just breaks my heart... I feel so sad, I am not sure how to see a bright side to his passing.. writing about it helps me a little, I really can't begin to understand how those who knew him really well are coping..I i like the posts from his diaries.. they are very poetic... Sob7an Allah---Allah yer7amo Ameen Ameen Ameen
Text without context is pretext If your opponent is of choleric temperament, seek to irritate him

Daniel, do you want to tell us about your brother?
What was he like?
Are you the younger brother, or the older one?
(Don't reply if you feel I am prying ... I just have a sense that everybody here is feeling his loss, and may know a little more about him ...)
Peace
he was six footer linebacker sized man with smiling eyes. he had answer for everything (he was a 'student of the year' man in most of his classes). he decided to be a dentist and surgeon to help people (but he told me : i do it so that i look cooler than you, Dan).
at his teen, he visited our driver who had a traffic accident at the driver's house, and there was an arabic caligraphy in the driver's room. he got so curious, and he somehow found out that it means 'there is no god but Allah', and he spent the rest of weekend crying, sobbing, and locking himself in his room. he told me..."Dan, that words is playing here! it is a calling that never let me fell asleep" he pointed his finger to his temple.
less than a year after that, he told me that he was a muslim. i was shocked at first, but Islam turned him into lovelier brother than before. so i supported his decision with all my life.
I am so sorry to hear this news Daniel. Please accept my deepest condolences. I hope his immediate family have recovered from the tragedy and I pray for your family and his wife.
I used to have some wild thoughts of what would happen to all my email accounts and the forums I am part of, if I die suddenly. I would only assume that yahoo and gmail would just delete my account after a few months. I am glad that you were able to find out more information about your brother so soon.

I've spent hours after Friday prayer reading his posts in the Malay Language and Indonesian language threads ..... he was a very funny and happy chap....
Daniel, maybe you should read his posts at those threads.....
Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajioun. SubhanAllah, thats so sad Ameen to all the Du'as and thanks brother for letting us know. He was definitely a good member here
12 February,
"....Malaysian people, agnostics, atheist, and muslims with beautiful usernames, scattered like a firefly to warm and light my thought. so this is Islam. I knew it, and i have no desire to leave LI..."
SubhanAllah that totally got to me All time quote.
*Without Allah, without Islam, life would be meaningless. If I've ever learned patience, it's because of this. Alhamdulillah...*
this is shocking indeed.innalilahi inailaihi raajioon.i had read some of his posts on this forum.its hard to believe that one of the members of this forum is no more.
