Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)


According to the Qur’an and Sunnah, there is no such thing as past lives or reincarnation, but there will be indeed resurrection (Ba'th).

Allah created us from nothing and gave us existence. We have only one life on this earth. After death we will be raised up again on the Day of Judgment.

Those people who claim to have imaginations, dreams of past lives, usually under hypnosis may be hearing the whispers of jinn, even without knowing they would interpret the whispers as their own memories.



And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
