Mubeen’s Facebook page is similar to that of a teenage boy with big aspirations and free spirit. He took selfies with his “besties” using an iPhone, wore jackets and cool clothes, and posted photos of soccer player Lionel Messi.

His profile photo shows him wearing his green school uniform. Numbers of people have commented on his pictures for as how much they will miss him..

“I miss you so much my brother. May Allah bless your soul. You were a true friend. I hope you rest in peace. I love you,” reads one post.

Mubeen was vocal on his Facebook page about his political beliefs. He often posted pictures showing solidarity with victims in Gaza. His cover photo shows two children with the quote: “We are a NATION of beauty and great grief. our smile is much STRONGER than your gun.”

Rahim Khan, one of her students, tweeted saying his heart was bleeding.
