3 San Diego Shooting Victims Remembered as Pillars of Islamic Center

Three victims in the San Diego shooting were remembered as central figures at the Islamic Center of San Diego — including Amin Abdullah, a security guard, a longtime shopkeeper and the husband of a teacher.
Abdullah took up security work after the 2019 Christchurch mosque massacre, according to a chaplain, and stood watch over the center out of concern for his community’s safety.
Mourners described the men as selfless, dependable and deeply woven into daily life at the mosque, underscoring the loss to San Diego’s Muslim community beyond the attack itself.
