What has been reported is narrated by Ibn Abi Shaybah in “Al-Musannaf”
On the authority of Abdul Rahman bin Muhammad Al-Muharbi, on the authority of Analith, on the authority of Mujahid, on the authority of Yazid bin Shajara, may God be pleased with him, who said: “ No dead person dies until his companions appear for him upon his death, If they are people of amusement, then they are people of amusement, and if they are people of remembrance, then people of remembrance.
First: some verses talk about the death
In this context, we will jump from one idea to another in a hurry to understand the Qur’an and Sunnah and what it has given us in terms of approximation to the idea of death.
Allah says
يَجْعَلُونَ أَصَابِعَهُمْ فِي آذَانِهِمْ مِنَ الصَّوَاعِقِ حَذَرَ الْمَوْتِ ﴿١٩ البقرة﴾
They put their fingers in their ears from the thunderbolts, for fear of the death. (Al-Baqarah 19)
Thunder has a loud, frightening sound, and you feel for a moment that your whole life will end, so you find that some people are afraid of the death, Instead of hiding from the light and thunder, Instead, they put their fingers, not just one finger, in their ears, a visual representation of the horror of death.
Allah says
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ دِيَارِهِمْ وَهُمْ أُلُوفٌ حَذَرَ الْمَوْتِ ﴿٢٤٣ البقرة﴾
Have you not seen those who left their homes in thousands, fearful of death? (Al-Baqarah 243)
Imagine the idea and leave a little behind the reason for the revelation of the verse: Thousands of people leave together, like immigrants, forced migration. Why? Just for fear of death, Whoever is destined to die will die by land, sea, or air, and there is much evidence around us. This does not mean that we embrace death when it is coming, but rather the idea of fear of death is an inherent idea in the soul.
Allah says
Then wish for death if you are truthful. (Al-Baqarah 94)
Some people imagine that it is God's pet, meaning the pet of God Almighty - so to speak - which indicates that we are pampered by God - the Almighty -, and none of us is ever a prophet, guardian, or even a good human being, We do not purify ourselves, but rather God - the Almighty - is the one who purifies whom He wills, the idea of wishing for death is the idea that you feel that you are spoiled by God - the Almighty - or that you are good to Him, and this is impossible - our master Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, who carries in his heart the faith of a nation, He used to say that if I put my right foot into Paradise, I would not be safe from God’s deception to put my left foot in it. The idea of wishing for death is a dangerous idea, and God brought it to everyone who claims divinity and prophet hood, and even that he is God’s chosen one. And look at yourself: Have you ever wished for death when all was well in your life?
Allah says
وَلَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ تَمَنَّوْنَ الْمَوْتَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَلْقَوْهُ ﴿١٤٣ آل عمران﴾
And indeed you had been wishing for death before you met it. (Al Imran 143)
It is clear: even someone who is fed up with life due to distress or pain, whether physical or even psychological, wishes to die, but at the time of meeting, the matter is different - O God, grant us long life with good deeds - from the supplications of the Messenger - may God bless him and grant him peace.
Allah says
قُلْ فَادْرَءُوا عَنْ أَنْفُسِكُمُ الْمَوْتَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ﴿١٦٨ آل عمران﴾
Say, “Avert death from yourselves, if you are truthful.” (Al Imran 168)
inclined and crooked What this means is: If you are old enough and have more knowledge than all other people, like someone who says that he created God in a machine, we create God in a machine, so distort or keep death away from you if you were honest at the time it came to you. the truth is that the idea of death refutes or eliminates every problem, You said it in your life about the absurdity of life, or about overcoming death or any other idea.
Allah says
وَلَتَجِدَنَّهُمْ أَحْرَصَ النَّاسِ عَلَىٰ حَيَاةٍ وَمِنَ الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا ۚ يَوَدُّ أَحَدُهُمْ لَوْ يُعَمَّرُ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ وَمَا هُوَ بِمُزَحْزِحِهِ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ أَن يُعَمَّرَ ۗ وَاللَّهُ بَصِيرٌ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ (96
You will find them the most eager for life among those who associate others with others, ۚ one of them would like to live for a thousand years, but he is not, by budges him from the torment that he should live long, And God is Seeing of what they do (96)
One of the strangest things about people’s conditions at the moments of death is that some of them would like, with the greatest degree of love, to be among those who live not for 100 years, but for 1000 years. Why? So that he does not only experience the idea of death, even if he lived any kind of life - may God protect us - this is one of the oddities of experiencing the idea of death and escaping from it.
Second: The state of the departure of the soul of the believer and the unbeliever upon death
1- The departure of the believer’s soul
Al-Nasa’i narrated in “Al-Mujtaba and Al-Kubra”, Ibn Hibban and Al-Hakim on the authority of Abu Hurairah - may God be pleased with him - He said: The Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace - said: ((When the time of his death comes for a believer, the angels of mercy come to him with a white silk, They say: Go out, satisfied and well-pleased with you, to the spirit of God Almighty and Rayhan ( Every plant with a pleasant scent is a type of smelt) And God is not angry, and it comes out like the sweetest scent of musk, so much so that some of them give it to each other, so they call him by the best names for him, until they bring him to the gate of heaven, and they say thus the narration with confirmation of the nun: It came to you from the earth, and they bring it to the souls of the believers, and they rejoice more over it than any of you over his absence when he arrives, so they ask him: what did so-and-so do? what did so-and-so do? They say: Leave him until he rests, for he was in the distress of this world, He says: He died, but did he not come to you? They say: He was taken to his mother, the abyss. (Al-Albani said in “Sahihah”(3/293): Its chain of transmission is authentic, and Shuaib Al-Arna’ut said: Its chain of transmission is authentic according to the conditions of the two Sheikhs.
Meaning that he went to his mother, the abyss:
The souls of the believers say: If he dies and does not join us, then he will be taken to Hell, The abyss is one of the names of Hell, as if it were a deep place into which the people of Hell would fall, a distant abyss. ...
Al-Bazzar narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah - may God be pleased with him - on the authority of the Prophet - may God’s prayers and peace be upon him - who said: “When a believer is dying, the angels bring him a bundle of musk and basil in it, so his soul is released like a hair is released from dough, and it is said:o reassured soul, go out, satisfied and pleasing to you, to the spirit and dignity of God Almighty, when his soul comes out, musk and basil are placed on it, folded over a harira: silk and taken with it to Aliyin: place in the paradise.)
2 - The departure of the spirit of the disbelievers and hypocrites
((If the disbeliever servant is in a state of cessation from this world and approaching the Hereafter - meaning when he is dying - Angels with black faces descended to him from heaven, wearing sackcloth, and they sat near him as far as the eye could see. Then the Angel of Death came and sat at his head, He says: O evil soul, come out to God’s wrath and angry, He said: Then it spreads throughout his body, and he pulls it out just as he pulls the threads from wet wool, Then he takes it, and when he takes it, he does not leave it in his hand for the blink of an eye until they put it in those sackcloths, and from it comes out like the odor of a stinking corpse, It was found on the face of the earth, and they ascended with it and did not pass by a group of angels except that they said: What is this malicious spirit? They say: To so-and-so, the son of so-and-so, by the ugliest names he was called with in this world, until he ended up with them in the lowest heaven. It was opened for him, but it was not opened for him. Then the Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace - recited:
﴿ لَا تُفَتَّحُ لَهُمْ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ وَلَا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ ﴾ [الأعراف: 40])).
The gates of heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise, Until the camel enters the eye of the Needle stitcher ([Al-A'raf: 40])).
Third: An abstract idea for the death
Do you like death? Would you like to bury one of your loved ones underground and then return to your home when his place was empty? Why did God Almighty create death? It is extremely painful to the soul, Did you return after burying one of your loved ones under the dirt as you were before, or is there something strange that you do not understand so that you can adjust the rhythm, even if just a little?
Have you heard of euthanasia?
Euthanized, if you have not heard, is for someone to take a specific drug that destroys cells in a few minutes without pain. Companies are established for it in almost all parts of Europe, and its goal is to make you tired of life even if you have everything that people love. Euthanized death is more widespread in countries. Scandinavians who are famous for human well-being and happiness.
Finlay: Scientific idea: What do people see right before they die?
People's oddities at the hour of death
Here's how your life flashes before your eyes, according to these seven near-death experiences: Researchers call it an LRE — a life review experience — and it's a vivid account of your lifelong autobiographical memories.
“Re-experiencing one's own life events, so-called LRE
It is a phenomenon with well-defined characteristics, and its subcomponents can also be demonstrated in healthy people. “This suggests that the representation of life events as a continuum exists in the cognitive system, and can be further expressed in extreme conditions of psychological and physiological stress,” the authors wrote. The rest is in the links below.
It was published in 1977
He wrote a book entitled “At the Hour of Death” in which he said that most dying people first see dead relatives and then angels or religious figures when seeing a deceased relative, the dying person experiences a state of joy and lack of fear of death. It also turns out that they are not suffering from hallucinations (as was thought) as the monitoring devices indicate a real viewing situation!
The researchers discovered that
certain brain waves, called alpha and gamma changed pattern even after blood stopped flowing to the brain. “Given that cross-coupling between alpha and gamma activity is implicated in cognitive processes and memory retrieval in healthy people, it is interesting to speculate that such activity could support the 'final life recall' that may occur in a near-death situation.”
Six minutes after the heart stopped
Blood flow to the brain is cut off, and the brain essentially dies. Then, the decline reaches a point of no return and our basic awareness is lost - our ability to feel that we are here and now, and to realize that the thoughts we have are our own.
Some scientific experiments
The experiments were conducted in an attempt to better understand reports from people who have had a near-death experience. Such an event has been associated with out-of-body experiences, feelings of deep bliss, calling, and seeing the bright light above, but also with deep surges of anxiety or complete emptiness and silence. A major limitation of studies investigating such experiences is that they focus too much on the nature of the experiences themselves and often ignore the context that precedes them.
It's not easy to get permissions to study what actually happens in the brain during the final moments
of our lives. But a recent paper examined the electrical brain activity of an 87-year-old man who suffered a head injury in a fall, died after a series of epileptic seizures and cardiac arrest. While this was the first publication of such data collected during the transition from life to death, the paper is highly speculative when it comes to possible “mind experiences” that accompany the transition to death.
Only the study reported
It reports brain activity recorded over a period of about 15 minutes, including a few minutes after death. New data from a scientific 'accident' suggests that life may actually be flashing before our eyes as we die. A team of scientists set out to measure, the team wrote in their study published in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, a type that could indicate that the ultimate “call to life” may occur in a person’s final moments.
The conclusion
The Holy Qur’an explains to us in the Almighty’s saying
( فلولا إذا بلغت الحلقوم وأنتم حينئذ تنظرون ونحن أقرب إليه منكم ولكن لا تبصرون)
(If it had not reached the throat and you would then be looking and we are closer to him than you are, but you will not see)
The moment the soul leaves the body and we stand next to the deceased, we do not see what he sees - and we will all be there This situation one day - Then God Almighty says that He - Glory be to Him and perhaps His angels are closer, For those of us who are dead, in today's science we study brain activity at the time and moment in which we think, the moments of death cannot be measured until now, perhaps tomorrow....
