INTRODUCTION
Recently I watched a television show to see what a panel of experts from different faith groups had to say on What happens after we die? and to find out what questions were on people’s mind. I was disappointed as many of the answers did not have any substance to them and some did not make sense. During the show I listed the questions being asked and afterwards decided to answer them from an Islamic perspective. I did so believing it will benefit people of all faith groups.
The teachings of Islam come from two sources, the Quran and the Hadith. Muslims believe the same angel (Gabriel) that came to prophets Abraham, Moses and Jesus also came to prophet Muhammad (peace be upon them all). Muslims also believe that God, through the angel Gabriel, revealed the Quran to Muhammad (peace be upon him). This was done over a period of twenty-three years. Muslims consider the Quran to be God's last revelation to mankind. Since one in every five persons on earth is a Muslim, the Quran enlightens and guides over one billion people around the world.
The Hadith are sayings and practices of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Muhammad (peace be upon him) lived during the sixth and seventh centuries. Muslims accept him as God’s last prophet and messenger to mankind. He invited people to the same God that Abraham, Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them) invited people to. The sayings of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) number in the thousands, and cover a variety of topics. It is these two sources that we will use to educate ourselves and learn what happens after we die.
To add depth to the topic I have taken the liberty of adding related questions I believe are on people’s mind. Finally, I reorganized all of the questions and answers in a progressive order, making it easy for all to follow.
