“Indeed, to God we belong and to God we shall return. Allah is testing me once again. My son, Alif Johan has just passed away at my house,” said Nora as she was seen crying profusely. Nora had to cancel her business trip to Singapore and returned to Kuala Lumpur after hearing the sudden news.
“The maid told me that Alif suddenly passed out and she immediately called the ambulance. I have not been able to find out more about the exact cause of her death on the way to the hospital,” Nora’s manager Jaja further added in an interview with Harian Metro.
Soon after, Alif’s final Instagram came to light following his passing. The former “Mentor Milenia 2019” contestant uploaded a 2-minute and 35-second clip of him singing “Salam Terakhir” by Sudirman. “He participated in a local show at our university called ‘Clash Of Talent’ where he sang the song. He won the competition that night. We got chills during his performance, his voice is so beautiful,” shared college-mate Faizal to mStar.

Alif’s funeral was held yesterday (Sunday, 15th December) evening after the results of the autopsy came out earlier in the morning. It was reported that his death was not due to chronic complications or consuming of illegal substances. “I am satisfied that the results showed that there was no abnormal signs,” the award-winning songbird told mStar.
She further added by saying that at first she was against the decision of carrying out the autopsy. “If it were to me, I don’t want any post-mortem. But since he’s very young, I was afraid that he took unprescribed pills,” said Nora.
Alif’s body was safely buried right next to his late father Johan Nawawi’s cemetery. For those who don’t know, the renowned composer passed away on 24th March 2017 after suffering an apparent heart attack.
