Death is an inconvenient reality that we’d all like to forget. But it is a reminder of what this life is about, and what our focus should be on: attaining the best life after death, in Jannah. Death is a part of the ‘Alimul Ghaib. But what is ‘Alimul Ghaib? What happens during the journey of death, and what happens afterward? What are the proper ways to perform funerals and burials? In this course, Sh. Abu Eesa discusses the fiqh of death, answering important questions pertaining to the topic.

What is death? We know that death is when Allah takes the soul back to Him, permanently. But what is the technical definition? What are the categories of death? In this lesson, Sh. Abu Eesa speaks about the different ways that people die and how we should view the concept of death as Muslims.

It is a right of Muslims to be looked after when they are sick. It is an act of worship, and is greatly rewarded. What are the rewards and importance of visiting the sick? Sh.Abu Eesa talks about the proper etiquette of visiting the sick in this lesson.

There are a number of etiquettes and adab to have for the one who might be sick, and the one who is there to help. How are we supposed to act in both scenarios? How can we make sure that the last statement of the one on the deathbed is ‘la illaha illallah’? Sh. Abu Eesa discusses what to do at the deathbed, the certain du’as to make, how to tell someone has passed, and shares personal stories regarding this.
