It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our dear colleague Majid Fayaz, at the age of 46. Majid was a valued member of our LSE Security Team, known for his dedication, kindness, and unwavering commitment to keeping our workplace safe.
Beyond his role at work, Majid was a devoted husband and a loving father to his two young children. Our thoughts and deepest sympathies go out to his family during this incredibly difficult time. As colleagues, we mourn his loss, but we also remember the kindness, dedication, and quiet strength that defined his time with us.
In honour of Majid’s memory, we encourage staff to share their condolences here and support his family. May he rest in peace, knowing he made a lasting impact on those around him.
Very sad to hear of Majid’s passing. Although I have been a member of the LSE community for just over 5 years now I still sometimes get lost on campus or fail to remember where certain rooms are. Just last term Majid guided me to a room in a building I happened to miss while walking hurriedly on campus and, while accompanying me to the room, Majid made a joke about the fact that I had missed the room despite having walked past it. It was a funny moment that seemed insignificant but his decision to walk with me to find the room showed how dedicated he was to making LSE a warm, safe and accessible environment for staff, students and visitors. May his soul rest in peace.
My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. As a student, I will always remember him as a kind and warm presence on campus. He brought joy to our community with his kindness and dedication, always making us feel safe and welcome. He will be deeply missed.
This is devastating news…sincerest condolences to his family and especially his children. Rest in peace Majid.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un. From God we came and to him we return. May Allah forgive and grant him heaven. May He also give his family patience and allow them to persevere.
Deeepest condolences to Majid’s family and to the LSE family too. LSE security are dedicated and make us safe at their own risk and discomfort, standing in the cold for long hours.
May Majid’s soul rest in eternal peace
Very sorry to hear this. Majid, as with the wider LSE security team, was professional, fair and helped keep all of us safe and secure. I spoke with him a few times. This is terrible news for his family – so deepest sympathies to them – and tough for his LSE security colleagues.
A wonderful work colleague who made such a positive impact on so many , you will be sorely missed but will always be in our thoughts. My heart goes out to Majid’s beautiful family . May your happy memories give you peace and comfort during this challenging time.
I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing. I am still in shock. as only a few days ago we were sitting across from each other. It breaks my heart to know that we will never work together again, but I am grateful for the conversation we had before this sad day arrived. You were not only a valued member of the team but also a wonderful person who will be greatly missed.
إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ

It is with a heavy heart that we share the sad news of the passing of our dear colleague and friend, Majid Fayaz. His sudden departure has left us all in deep shock and sorrow.
Majid was not just a colleague but a kind-hearted and humble soul, always ready to help others with a smile. His dedication to his work and his generosity towards everyone around him will never be forgotten. He was a person of great character, integrity, and compassion—someone who truly embodied the values of brotherhood, sincerity, and respect.
We pray that Allah (SWT) forgives his shortcomings, expands his grave, and grants him the highest place in Jannat-ul-Firdous. May Allah (SWT) make his journey easy and grant his family sabr (patience) during this difficult time.
Let us all remember Majid in our duas and continue the good he started, as the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
“When a person dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: Sadaqah Jariyah (ongoing charity), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.” – [Sahih Muslim]
May Allah reward him for all his good deeds and make his resting place a garden from the gardens of Jannah. Ameen.
Our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones. If anyone would like to contribute towards a Sadaqah Jariyah in Majid’s memory, please reach out.
May Allah have mercy on his soul. Ameen.
With prayers and condolences,
I was deeply saddened by demise of Majid; he was so hilarious, helpful and hardworking and top team player. May Allah bestow him Jannat.
I’m devastated that Majid is no longer with us. He made a big difference to everyone around him in his short time here. I spoke to him for over an hour on the phone in what was to be my last contact with him. He would always make the time to listen you and always offer his knowledge which I will greatly miss. My sincere condolences to his young family.
Rest in peace Brother.

Still feels surreal. When someone you know and work with is taken far too young it’s hard to comprehend. You will be sorely missed my friend, especially by your fellow colleagues on C Team who are completed shocked and devastated. Deepest sympathy to his family and friends at this most saddest of times.
RIP Maj

Dear Majid, rest in peace! It is true, yet very difficult to believe that you are gone. You were forthright and down to earth. You really had no time to waste, indeed, no time to waste! By human reasoning and calculation, you had so many years ahead but that’s how finite we are. How wrong we can be! You have paid the debt we all owe. No more. Now, rest eternally, in perfect peace.

It was shock and disbelief, when I heard of Majit’s passing, followed by regret, a realisation that it is so FINAL. I will never be able to tell him everything I wanted to say. We take people for granted until it is too late… I hope his loved ones will find some solace in seeing how many people who knew Majit are greaving together with them… RIP, Majit 🙏
I was totally shocked, and kinda still don’t believe that Majid is gone! Working with him was never dull because he would always come up with funny philosophy to make me laugh out loud. I sure will miss him hugely. R.I.P. Majid.
So sad to hear the terrible news of Majid passing.
