ISLAMIAT BY FARKHANDA NOOR MUHAMMAD (REVISED EDITION)

A.M.NOTES

CHAPTER 5:
BELIEF IN LIFE AFTER DEATH:
 LIFE IN DEATH IS ONE OF ARTICLES OF FAITH AND EVERY SOUL
SHALL FACE DEATH.

 AFTER DEATH, A NEW LIFE BEGINS WHICH WILL BE VERY

DIFFERENT THAN THE ONE IN THIS WORLD.

 AS ALL THINGS IN THIS WORLD HAVE AN AGE, THIS UNIVERSE

ALSO HAS A LIFE SPAN AFTER WHICH IT WILL BE DESTROYED.

 ALLAH WILL JUDGE ALL HUMAN BEINGS FOR GOOD AND BAD
DEEDS AND THEY WILL BE REWARDED ACCORDINGLY.

 IT HAS BEEN MENTIONED MANY TIMES IN HOLY QURAN THE

BELIEF IN DAY OF JUDGEMENT IMMEDIATELY AFTER BELIEF IN
ALLAH.

 NEARLY 200 VERSES IN QURAN IN REFERENCE TO HEREAFTER.

 LIFE IS TEMPORARY IN THIS WORLD, A TEST WHERE WE

PREPARE OURSELVES FOR THE NEXT LIFE WHICH IS
PERMANENT.

 MAN IS GIVEN FACULTY TO CHOOSE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL

AND IS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ACTIONS.

 LIFE AND DEATH IS CREATED TO TEST WHO IS BEST IN

CONDUCT AND A FIRM BELIEF IS CRUCIAL FOR
ACCOUNTABILITY.
 ALL SOULS WILL BE REUNITED AND THE DEAD WILL COME
BACK TO LIFE ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT AND REWARDED OR
PUNISHED FOR THEIR DEEDS.

 THE PIOUS WILL ENJOY ALLAH’S BLESSINGS IN HEAVEN

WHILST THE WRONG DOERS WILL SUFFER IN HELL.

 IF THE GOOD DEEDS OUTWEIGH THE BAD ONES, HE WILL FIND

PLACE IN HEAVEN, OTHERWISE, THROWN INTO HELL.

 THOSE WHO DON’T BELIEVE IN LIFE AFTER DEATH BECOME

IMMORAL AND IRRESPONSIBLE.

 THOSE WHO HAVE A FIRM BELIEF AND FEAR ALLAH, FOLLOW

THE STRAIGHT PATH AND ABSTAIN FROM EVIL DEEDS.

 IF THERE WEREN’T LIFE AFTER DEATH, THERE WOULD BE

TOTAL CHAOS AND DISORDER IN WAY OF LIFE AND MAN
WOULD BECOME IRRESPONSIBLE.

 LIFE AFTER DEATH ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO ABSTAIN FROM

EVIL DEEDS AND DO GOOD.
