In grade 8 I had an eye-wateringly good English teacher, and that's not just because he brought onions to class and chucked them at students who mis-behaved. I'm not going to list his virtues here, but it's enough to know I haven't yet met a student from our grade 8 batch who doesn't think he was a great teacher.

Well, I met him the other day in Carrefour. "salam sir, how u doing?" I think he replied that he was fine, but I'm not sure. "you know, there've been rumours about your health, sir". " well, they aren't rumours..... at least the therapy isn't killing me yet ". The rumours are that Mr Isma'il has cancer.

He asked me to make Du'a for him, and I in turn ask everyone who reads this to make Du'a for his speedy and full recovery inshA'llah. A'meen.

    He is, unchallenged, the best teacher who ever taught me too. Let alone his teachings and his lessons. His observations, his support, and his wicked smart interpretations have, only a few years ago, changed my attitude about everything, changed my view about my surroundings, about myself.. he changed me, truly.

    For that i will always owe him. May Allah cure him and reward him. Ameen.
