In a heartfelt post on social media, Kotila revealed that the family has started a GoFundMe campaign to help cover the costs of the funeral, or Janazah, as it’s referred to in their faith.

She also urged people to offer prayers for the deceased, asking for Allah’s mercy and forgiveness for Moshood, and that he be granted a place in Jannah, the highest part of paradise.

“We are raising money to fund the Janazah costs. The family needs money to bury him as soon as possible. Any little amount counts. Thank you all,” Kotila’s post read.

Moshood’s death has sent shockwaves through his former neighbors in Cardiff, where the family had lived prior to moving to Rochdale.

Kotila shared fond memories of their time together as neighbors, which makes the loss even more poignant
