US where many students were injured but Dakota Schrader a student says I was in the history hallway now I quote what she said to the public he says I was in a history hallway and as soon as we heard the alarms everyone started leaving following the same procedure as a practice fire drill and next thing we know we hear three gunshots loud explosions and all the teachers are telling us to run now in 20 weeks into 2018 22 shootings have occurred in the United States now that's tragic which means for each week there's more than one shooting per week and when we're only in five months and this is the the picture of the suspect this guy what how old is this guy right wow I mean this is high school so you were like what 15 16 17 max wow the government really needs to have this thing under have

tonight's topic why don't we go and do that once again Asalaamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu welcome to episode say of the special series of the special Ramadan series of course hashtag lnt presented and hosted by your one and only your favorite man Ahmed Ali sitting right here and funny coming into your life in the holy city of Karbala now tonight's topic we're going to be discussing a topic considered to be too scary to be discussed by the majority now we all can agree that everything has an end from your tuna can to your deodorant to your car engine to basically everything everything has an end there's an expiration date that has to come similar to human beings human as everyone knows we started off from the two things combining each other we're not there yet guys two things combining each other the sperm and the egg when these two combine they make the human being and at the end that comes up no put it back on now that comes up that comes up and when that comes up it's death there's the end of life now as Allah swt states in the Quran everyone every soul shall taste death death is one of those things that you know we humans try to ignore try not to even think about it that's why a lot of people when when they do think about you know what if this thing happened or the other thing happens if if i get you know god forbid in a car accident you know if i don't survive if i get this kind of disease or if someone actually does have a disease may god forbid and may god heal those who have an illness they're scared to even think about death so they try to use other things to calm their minds down and not think about death sometimes it's unfortunate because we are trying to look forward for what's next because death is something that's you know it's it's it's not you can't dodge it you can't go around it there's only one straight path to go towards heaven inshallah everyone reaches that destination but it's a huge thing that a lot of people are trying to ignore however we must not neglect it because it's happening to all of us whether we like it or not i mean god forbid imagine that your friend or a family member god forbid is laying there on the deathbed in front of you and he's saying his last wishes or his last words you're going to start asking yourself you know will i see him again what will happen to him after this you know is is this the last word or will he breathe the last breath and then just you know vanish from our sights you know we won't see him again those questions pop up in your mind as you watch a close person to your heart die now that's what brings us to tonight's question i know tonight's question or tonight's topic is a bit depressing and a bit may trigger some you know emotions for the viewers so do we do

right let's pop that message up technical difficulties okay so death in islam is the end of worldly life in the beginning of afterlife death is the separation of the soul from the body and it's and it transfers from this world to the afterlife imam al-hassan will surely visit ma'min hussein sorry ma'min hussein will surely visit our graves thank you very much khadija from tanzania for joining us uh tonight i'm letting us know what you think about tonight's topic now uh khadija khadija khadija from tanzania let's get that right there let's get that right there yeah khadija from tanzania your name is going into a ball right here first name for tonight anyways back thank you very much khadija for joining us now back to tonight's topic the internet is a bit slow today so we'll uh the comments will pop up so inshallah for those that anyone that does participate on facebook or instagram um uh your names only the live comments will be placed in this ball right here anyways back to the topic now the topic of death as we'll continue and you know for me i love the two aspects when we're talking about any topic we're talking about um if we're talking about death it branches into two categories two parts number one we have the scientific approach and then number two we have the religious and both of them of course you know that's why i'm the host of nnt you know i'm an expert in both that's why you know inshallah we don't want to boost myself a lot but anyways it branches out into two we have the scientific and then we have the religious we don't have time to go through all of them but we i will go through uh the main aspect and i'll give you an overview uh of what both contain now we'll begin with the scientific aspect now the scientific aspect of death as i mentioned branches out into two the first one is the clinical death um where the body you know your breath the last breath um and then the your organs will also um start what will continue to pump blood for almost four to six minutes now during the stage your organs remain alive for that period and then after you'll just die when there's no oxygen or blood flowing to the brain now the second stage is the biological death and that's uh that takes almost um depending on how you um take care of your body it's it's where the cells within your body start to degenerate so no more cells are being generated no more blood is being pumped by the heart it's not getting anywhere that's why uh we see a lot of um times that where you know after 12 hours of the person is dead you'll see his whole body turning white sometimes you see red um bruising all over their body red purple bruising all over their body their skin starts to change because there's uh all the blood goes to the lowest point um of the body now a process you know and and unless um a person or the doctors um keep the body fresh and refrigerated even then uh bruises might still show up on the body as well now a process called putrefaction putrefaction sorry happens after the bacteria um tactic eats through the abdominal organs releasing rotten smells i mean even when they say that even you know excuse my language you know when when when the body dies uh still gases pass through it's it's not it's a sad topic you know but uh gases pass through the the the holes within the when the body so smells do exit the body um so the there's a special term for that we don't want to get into that but anyways uh that smell attracts bacteria where the bacteria comes to the body and starts to uh eat it almost 60 of the bacteria eats the body and then maggots come in and then you have the worms uh you know six of the body of course is in and then you got the worms you got the plants also the plants feed off your body you know and then wow you know the remaining parts of the body you know for me to talk about it you know for me every time i talk about something i imagine it and right now i'm imagining a lot of things going through my head especially if you watch movies um now this it's it's it's it's disgusting uh it's scary at the same time but imagine how much a lot of people put attention to their skin they take care of it so much it's a good thing it's a very good thing you know a lot of people even bath and milk uh you know uh thick milk but even even to that um people need to think of the future uh and take care not only of their physical body but of their spiritual body as well but let's take the opinion of the expert um who has joined us for tonight hsain al-Romaithi from canara what happens after we die well uh i'll let you know once i come back but uh kidding aside this topic is actually um funny to me in some some ways i've read a lot of opinions about metaphysics ontology cosmology and all these sciences that deal with the question of being existence reality um for for instance uh is existence a property do uh physical properties actually exist uh the notions of space time matter and so on and uh there was a huge disagreement among scholars and uh for example one of the main questions of the universe that of everyone why do we exist what's the purpose of creation uh scholars still are differing upon it when you ask um any any scientists why do we exist they would try to either give you an uh evolutionary answer or if you speak to priest rabbi or sometimes to some imams they would give you answers that are uh not absorbable if you know what i mean in a sense that they would give you a religious answer that cannot be actually easily absorbed okay i see what you're saying but what's the rationale behind it uh but however this is this is this is what i uh try to tell myself and tell whoever asks me this question although i'm not a full expert in this in this topic i would say does something exist beyond death i would say yes and the reason i say that it has to logically something has to exist beyond this world regardless of what's the purpose of life what's the purpose of existence here something has to exist beyond this world beyond this life beyond this existence and it must be connected to our existence in this world whether it should be regarding consequences consequences of our deeds of our actions of what we have done here or it should be connected in a way that actually may as may some some have some have suggested this actually that uh it should be an infinite continuation of this world where some people say our physical entity actually would be would actually be resurrected in the hereafter so therefore these physical properties time space and matter would actually be transported to that life and then we would be in an infinite life which also actually automatically connects that life to this life therefore i i i say to those who decline to acknowledge the existence of another life after death i would tell them you haven't been able to tell me a lot of things about this life and there are still disagreements and a lot of debates regarding some of the simplest concepts of this life so how do you expect me to actually accept your opinions about what's gonna happen afterlife something that no one has seen no one has experienced and i know there are some stories about some individuals who have had uh beyond life experiences and they come back they tell us about the this passage this white light and so on and i'm not trying to deny those things and i believe they are actually really they have seen something which actually proves our point but uh all of these details are not conclusive therefore i uh i say that when someone tries to deny or completely deny that concept it actually brings smile to my face have a good day brother san arromethy dr san arromethy uh from winsor canna for joining us tonight a very special friend of the show and very special friend of mine now uh before we were asking the expert we were talking about the scientific aspect of death or what happens after we die now let's move on to the religious aspect of what happens to us after we die now we want to begin off with the you know all of us everyone knows that there are main religions around the world we'll begin off with the most famous religions and then we'll move on or we'll just continue off with the main religions around the world now christianity and as a lot of people are they know a lot about christianity they'll know that in the christian belief afterlife depends on what denomination a certain person is from but most of them believe in the resurrection of jesus christ where they believe that the afterlife depends on the choices you make within your life so that means that if if you do commit a lot of sins and hateful crimes and so on and so forth they'll go to hell and if you do good deeds then you end up in heaven but christian catholic catholic christians they believe in the purgatory now we also we share that with the christians as well but to a certain extent as well where a place we'll get to that one we're talking about islam now purgatory is a place where a body goes through the dead body goes through a place destined before heaven but there needs to be a sort of purification to the soul a purification to that dead person before they reach heaven so all their sins can be washed away before they reach heaven now we have buddhism now buddhist believe in the reincarnation same as with hinduism and they both share that you know they don't believe in the existence of the soul but at the same time the reincarnation where there's another place for a person to live again those are the two beliefs of buddhism and hinduism there are minor differences but their main aspect or the the main ideology or belief within these two religions they believe in the reincarnation judaism and they also believe that the individuals after the after death or after the the afterlife there are also stages where a person goes through so all of the religions they all of them believe in the aspects or in the ideology of after death there has to be a place where a person goes through before they end up in heaven or before they end up in hell and you know i don't know if god can help those who those going to hell but you know they made their own choices but anyways we have received we have just received a text message from zakia from norway which is after death there is no chance for doing any good deeds or undue misdeeds one thing one can hope for is allah's mercy absolutely true thank you very much once again zakia who joined us yesterday as well in tonight's episode but we will write her name down zakia zakia zakia from norway let's get that on the camera right there real quick real quick right there zakia from norway great thank you very much for joining us tonight we'll read a few comments out as we have just received the text message we'll we'll read that after this we'll read that after we see what we have on now entifada she says entifada basheer she says death to a mu'min is sweet because it's the beginning of delight a break from this horrible temporary life when we die it's a new life beginning and with the grace of allah i will start of a better life entifada from tanzania entifada from tanzania let's entifada i don't know if they had an entifada in tanzania but it looks like they do entifada means it's it's an uprise so entifada from tanzania right there okay now now let's get to islam the islam islam's view of what happens to us after we die now also in islam we have a lot of we we do share the same ideology with other religions as well and afterlife there is a place we're called barzakh in barzakh the body goes and if allah subhanahu wa ta'ala if this person has done good deeds has has helped the poor has helped the orphan allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will show him mercy in alam in barzakh but at the same time just like christianity a person may face difficulties in that place so allah subhanahu wa ta'ala can reduce his sin remove his sin before the actual day of judgment where everything comes down to now we shouldn't actually fear death my dear viewers because we should welcome it because that's a believer who should welcome death a believer should welcome death i don't know if we're ready to die yet but you know inshallah allah knows when to die and just the last narration i don't know when i will die but you know there's one thing there's one narration that says give sadaqa give charity allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will prolong your life thank you very much for joining us tonight this is Ahmad the alien hashtag gallanty
