SUNNAHS AT THE TIME OF DEATH AND AFTER DEATH

October 22, 2008

 

When it becomes apparent that the time of death is close, then those present should face the dying person towards the Qiblah. (Mustadark Haakim – Vol.1, pg.353) and they should make Talqeen i.e. recite the Kalima (laa ilaaha illallah muhammad ur rasoolullah) to encourage him to recite. (Tirmidhi – Chapter of Janaaiz)

 

When there are indications that the soul is departing, recite this dua: 'O Allah, assist me through the difficulties of death.'

 

When death has occurred then those having any connection with the deceased should recite: 'Verily to Allah we belong and to Him shall we return. O Allah, reward me in my difficulty and grant me some thing better in exchange.'

 

After the person has passed away, the deceased’s eyes should be closed. (Ibne Abi Shaybah)
