The day of death will be the day when man will come to life
1987 1 January 7 The day of death will be the day when man will come to life (88) The Prophet said: “People are asleep. They will wake up when they die.” What he meant was that they are so preoccupied with the world that they have become oblivious to the hereafter. As far as this world is concerned, they are awake, but as far as the next world is concerned, they are fast asleep. It is as though there is a veil over their eyes, which obscures their vision of reality. Death will destroy that veil, and they will wake up to the world of reality.
