Haniyeh’s wife, bidding farewell to her husband’s body, said in moving words: “Greet all the martyrs of Gaza, my beloved, my beloved in this world and the hereafter.”

Footage broadcast by the account of Sarah Haniyeh, daughter of the late head of the political bureau of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, showed the moments when his wife Hajja Umm al-Abed said goodbye to his body after arriving in Doha from Tehran.

Haniyeh’s wife, bidding farewell to her husband’s body, said in moving words: “Greet all the martyrs of Gaza, my beloved, my beloved in this world and the hereafter.”

A clip on the same account also showed the deceased’s son saying goodbye to the body.

The head of Hamas’ political bureau in Tehran was assassinated by Israel at dawn on Wednesday.

The body of the late Palestinian leader arrived Thursday evening in Doha in preparation for his funeral tomorrow, Friday, in the presence of the public and officials.

Funeral prayers for the deceased will be held after Friday prayers at the Imam Mohamed bin Abdul Wahab Mosque in Doha and then buried in the tomb of the founding imam in Lusail.

    He handed me my Palestine passport and made 44 of us volunteers for freegaza.org citizens of our beloved Palestine August 28 2008

  2. The loss of so courageous, mild-mannered and honest fighter against the dishonest, aggressive, ruthless, lawless, amoral, cowardly, disgusting criminals rudely murdering, stealing and squatting in his home land, brings tears to the eyes. Haniyeh should be awarded a posthumous International Honour as a Knight of Resistance by the United Nations, or perhaps the Non-Aligned Movement.
