Writer, poet, and producer Asma Nabeel has just lost her battle with cancer late on Thursday.
The playwright had been diagnosed with cancer in 2013 and she was fighting fearlessly ever since. The Damsa writer took to Instagram a few months ago to post a Quranic verse with the hashtags #cancerjourney and #chapter02, and wrote, “Only prayers can heal.”

The saddest news ever. Asma Nabeel has passed away.
I hope at such a moment amidst prayers for the departed, we remember how short life is.
She was a wonderfully positive person and I’m so proud to have worked in a serial written by her.
Thank you #asmanabeel— Mansha Pasha (@manshapasha) July 1, 2021

Asma was such a fighter, a survivor, but at the end of the day its Allah Ta'ala's will that prevails. May He grant her maghfirat & give her a beautiful place in jannat ul firdaus and give strength and solace to her bereaved family. Aameen pic.twitter.com/lAtY4Jjz8q
