What To Do When A Muslim Dies

When a Muslim is near to death, those who around him or her are called upon to give comfort, and reminders of Allah’s mercy and forgiveness.  They may recite verses from the Qur;an give  physical comfort and encourage the dying one to recite words of remembrance and prayer.  It is recommended, if at all possible, for a Muslim ‘s last words to be the declaration of faith:

I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is His messenger.
