Question: 'Every soul shall taste death'
Assalamualaykum

The only certainty in life is that we shall all die.

Knowing this, it is obviously wise to prepare for death, so like all things we should make dua....

..So is there anything in the Quran or sunnah to suggest the best way of dieing, i.e. would it be beneficial to die in makkah,madinah,ehram,with ablution, in prostration?

JazakAllah

A dua taught in the hadeeth indicates that we should always ask Allah to bless good fortune of dying in Madeenah, and in the path of Allah.

Another Hadeeth states that Allah whoever passes away on a friday will not have to face the punishment of the grave.






And Allah knows best
