Muhammad Ali's Younger Brother Has Died At 82

Other members of the Ali family also eulogized Rahaman on Instagram, including one of Muhammad's daughters Hana.

"Today, the last living member of my father's immediate family returned to heaven," she wrote. "My Uncle [Rahaman], lovingly known as Rock, was a sweet, gentle soul with a heart as big as the world. He had that same sparkle in his eye that my father had… that same light, that same mischief, that same love."

"They were close their entire lives, brothers by blood, but friends by choice," Hana continued. "Even as children, their bond was extraordinary. My father loved his brother like he was his own child."

"I can just picture them now, reunited in heaven… Whatever they're doing up there, I know it's full of joy, laughter, and the kind of brotherly love that helped shape our family."

Muhammad died back in 2016 following a lengthy battle with Parkinson's disease that slowly robbed him of his speech later in life — passing away at 74 in Scottsdale, AZ before being laid to rest in his native Louisville, KY.

"My father loved his brother Rahaman so deeply," legendary women's boxer Laila Ali added. "They are now back in the arms of their beloved parents. May they all rest in eternal peace together."
