40 PARADISE
The following verse describes a believer's death:
The greatest terror will not upset them, and the
angels will welcome them: "This is your Day, the
one that you were promised." (Surat an-Anbiya',
103)
Clearly, believers who have led a good life in this world
will have a beautiful and easy death, and their life in the next
world will begin when they are met by angels. From that mo-
ment on, all of their relations with this world will cease, and
they will be sent to an appointed place where they will come
before Allah's Presence. As it was from the beginning, so it
continues: comfort and ease await all believers.
