To Allah (God) do we belong and to Allah is our return. All is as God wills it. Allah give Officer Islam the highest level of Jannat (Heaven) and let his family reunite with him in Jannat. Let his family find Sabr (patience/peace). Ameen.

Lord Jesus, as we watch our nation's brave law enforcement officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities have been for sometime now and are currently on the brink of exploding with tension and unlawful wickedness from evil humanity. In light of the law enforcement officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies nationwide. O Lord, carry us through this time of trial, tribulation, and strife that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy Name, and by Your Authority, I pray for America's Fallen Peace Officers! Amen.
Praying that you will find some Comfort, Support, and Hope from the Law Enforcement Officer's Christian Standard Bible:
[Jesus taught:] "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." (Matthew 5:9);
[Jesus Taught:] "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs." (Matthew 5:10);
[Jesus Taught:] "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." (Matthew 5:4), and;
[Jesus Taught:] "No one has greater love than this: to lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13).
