According to the president, the Queen was a “cherished and revered monarch of the British people, the longest-serving in their history, who will be sorely missed. We are saddened by her departure.

“May God bless her soul and give her peaceful rest in His Bosom until the Last Day of the Resurrection when we shall all meet again,” he added.
