Sana Khan’s Mother Passes After Prolonged Illness — Former Actor Seeks Prayers In Emotional Appeal

June 22, 2025: Former television actress Sana Khan announced the heartbreaking news of her mother Saeeda’s passing on Tuesday.

Sharing an emotional message via her Instagram Stories, the Bigg Boss 6 alum revealed that her mother had been battling a serious health condition before she “returned to Allah.”

“Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un. My beloved mother Mrs. Saeeda has back returned to Allah after struggling with a bad health condition,” Sana wrote, expressing her sorrow and faith.

Sana also shared that namaz-e-janaza (funeral prayer) would take place at Oshiwara Qabrasthan in Mumbai after Isha prayers at 9:45 PM. She requested followers to pray for her late mother’s peace.

While she did not disclose her mother’s age or the specific illness, the news has come as a shock to her fans and followers. Many took to social media to offer condolences and prayers, highlighting the love and respect Sana frequently showed towards her mother.

Sana Khan, who stepped away from showbiz to follow a more spiritual and religious path, has often credited her mother as a pillar of support. A touching video from 2023 — where Saeeda was seen tying her daughter’s shoelaces — had gone viral as a tribute to their unbreakable bond. “There is no love more honest and selfless than a mother’s love,” Sana had written at the time.

The passing of Saeeda has led to an outpouring of grief from across the entertainment industry and her spiritual community, with fellow celebrities and fans sharing heartfelt messages.
