Nurul Izzah suffers miscarriage

KUALA LUMPUR: Former Permatang Pauh member of parliament Nurul Izzah Anwar suffered a miscarriage recently.

She confirmed the matter in her Facebook page today.

She said she lost her unborn fourth child while she was busy with her new duties, travelling back and forth between Penang and Putrajaya.

"The little boot is gone. Surely, we belong to Allah and verily to Him do we return," she said.

She offered support to those who faced the same fate as her and reminded them that life goes on.

"And the splendour of joy and happiness - it lurks in every corner - whether it's the smiles of Safiyah, Harith and Yu Zhou - or in the warm embrace of my own papa and mama, every moment counts.

"Happy homecoming in every warmth you experience.

"Healing is a journey - and if you need to take some time to breathe in the moment - just do it before the next chapter in life begins anew," she added.

Followers in her page have been offering their condolences in the comments section including ministers Steven Sim, Hannah Yeoh and Sim Tze Tzin.

Nurul Izzah is married to Yin Shao Loong, a senior research associate at Khazanah Research Institute.

The nikah ceremony was held at their family home in August last year and was attended by family members and close friends.
