DEATH AND LIFE AFTER ISLAMIC SOURCES

The inherent inability to feel death and the lack of scientific means to test it contribute to the complexity of the matter, thereby giving rise to many hypotheses. To elucidate this matter and resolve any disputes, our research has two primary components. Initially, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the human population as a whole, as a prerequisite for comprehending the concept of mortality. Next, we elucidate the human's conduct in relation to mortality and their profound vulnerability when confronted with the inevitability of death. Subsequently, we concluded our investigation by scrutinizing the matters pertaining to the demise and the subsequent occurrences. The phenomenon of death has been extensively studied, delineated, and attempted to be comprehended in several scientific disciplines. Across the course of history, many religious beliefs and teachings have given rise to diverse understandings and explanations about the concept of death. The topic of death has been a prominent focus for philosophers and scientists, both in the present century and throughout human history. Individuals' perspectives on mortality differ from one another and might also vary across diverse cultures. Undoubtedly, the Quran's response to the subject of death in Islam has significant importance. Additional components of the thesis will explore the connection between death and related subjects, such as existence in the grave, the apocalypse, judgment, and retribution. Individuals first undergo a condition of disfavor and astonishment when encountering death, but subsequently they acknowledge the circumstances and adjust to their existence. However, without enough expertise and equipment in this field, he may be exposed to mortal danger and experience a decline in his psychological well-being. The Holy Quran cautions individuals about mortality and mentally prepares them for the experience of death and its consequences. Mortality is a formidable challenge; however humanity has been bestowed with the capacity to triumph over this challenge by divine intervention. Initially, our study focused on analyzing the verses in the Quran that introduce and provide descriptions of human beings. In addition, we considered the perspectives of psychologists and sociologists, as well as the methodologies used by Islamic scholars. In the second section, we endeavored to analyze the occurrence of death, the apocalypse, the consequences of the apocalypse, and the depictions of the afterlife as described in the Holy Quran. These investigations will enhance individuals' comprehension of mortality, the purpose of their existence, and their self-perception.
