"Sir! Sir, we need you very much right now! All your contemporaries are dead, but you are immortal. Your tomb, our inspiration. We are manifested in your consciousness. Those who are in this generation, you too will die someday according to the laws of nature. But live with backbone as long as you live. Support the unjust demand, take to the streets, stand as a shield for the students. You will get real respect and honor. Dont get lost in time immediately after death. Foreveryou will live on as a Shamsujjoha. At least it is much more joy, honor and pride to die a "Shamsuzzoha","
"A call to countrymen: Dear Countrymen, As you all know, my son Abu Saeed was brutally martyred on 16/07/2024 by the dictator Sheikh Hasinas aide. Through the social media Facebook, we have come to know that some people have taken the initiative to build the sculpture of Shaheed Abu Saeed. We believe that you have taken such an initiative out of love for Shahid Abu Saeed. We respect your love. But you have seen how painfully my son was killed. I dont want my son to suffer as much in this world as in the hereafter. We are Muslims. I believe in Allah and the Hereafter. As Islam prohibits the making of all idols, sculptures or portraits, I respectfully ask that no idols, sculptures or portraits of my son be made anywhere in the country. I request you, if you want to do something for my son, then do something for the welfare of the people that Abu Saeed will find in his grave. Above all, we ask you to pray for Shaheed Abu Saeed, may Allah grant him Jannatul Firdaus. Pray for us too. Humble, Maqbool, Date: 08-08-2024 Eng (Father of Shaheed (martyr) Abu Saeed) Md. Abu Hussain (Elder Brother) Ramzan, Bokul"
