Prayers and tributes were offered at the funeral of fallen NYPD Officer Adeed Fayaz at the Makki Masjid on Coney Island Avenue in Flatbush Thursday.

Hundreds of NYPD officers created a sea of blue outside. Thousands of members of Brooklyn’s Pakistani community, which Fayaz was a part of, gathered inside the mosque.

“For New Yorkers, we lost our hero,” said director and founder of the Council of Peoples Organization, Mohamed Razvi. “We lost a family man with a family with kids. We lost a father. It is a sad day. But we are coming to stand together to make sure justice is served.”

Speaking at Fayaz’s funeral Wednesday, Mayor Eric Adams noted the cruel circumstances in which he lost his life.

“We lost our brother officer to a senseless act of violence,” Adams said. “Something that we believe we are obligated to place ourselves in harm’s way. To prevent families from enduring such pain.”

Fayaz was attacked Saturday while off duty and trying to buy a car through Facebook marketplace.

Investigators said he and his brother-in law met the would-be seller, 38-year-old Randy Jones, in East New York. Jones allegedly tried to rob them and shot Fayaz in the head.

“His heartbreaking death is another clarion. Call to those who are the vanguard for the vulnerable,” said NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell.

Police officers arrested Jones about two days later in a Rockland County Days Inn. He was found with his girlfriend and 5 children, ages 6 months to 11 years old.

Jones is charged with two counts of second degree murder, one count of first degree murder, two counts of first degree attempted robbery and two counts of second degree criminal possession of a weapon.

After fighting for his life for days, Fayaz died at Brookdale University Hospital on Tuesday. His wife and two small children are left without a husband and a father.

Outside the funeral Thursday, officers signed a mural of Fayaz in uniform. Artist Kenny Altidor painted the mural. He has been painting murals of fallen NYPD officers and firefighters for nearly 20 years.

“As a small token of appreciation I painted a mural and I’m going to present it to the family afterwards,” he said.

NYPD brass and police officers at Fayaz’s funeral said his loss is a reminder of exactly what they work to prevent and how vulnerable even they can be.

“We can never replace this police officer,” said NYPD Police Benevolent Association President Pat Lynch. “We cannot replace a father or a husband or a son, but what we can do is make sure the world remembers that in New York City a police officer put a shield on their chest to protect our right to do what we choose.”

Family members had considered burying Fayad in his native Pakistan, but instead opted to make the Pine Lawn Cemetery on Long Island his permanent resting place.

Meanwhile, Jones is being held without bail.
