Publisher's Synopsis
This important book covers an area about which most people have very little knowledge but which is, at the same time, of vital interest to all human beings. It outlines what happens to the human soul from the moment of death until the arrival of the Day of Judgment. It describes the death process itself, the exact relationship of the soul to the body, the states of the soul after it leaves this world, and the nature of the ongoing relationship between the dead and those who are still alive. Layla Mabrouk, an eminent, contemporary, Egyptian scholar has skillfully abridged a classic work by the great medieval scholar, Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyya who was a leading student of Ibn Taymiyya.
