Informed At Time of Death.

[Abu Fauzi]

As-Salaam alaykum,
The Messenger of Allah, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam,
said:--


"He who loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him; and he who
dislikes meeting Allah, Allah abhors meeting him."
Sayyada A'isha, may Allah be pleased with her, said:
"O Messenger of Allah! So far as the feeling of aversion to death is
concerned, we all have this feeling." Thereupon the Prophet, Sallallahu
alaihi Wasallam, said: "I do not mean that. What I meant is that when
a (true) believer is given the glad tidings of the Mercy of Allah, His pleasure
and His Jannah (at the time of death), he loves to meet Allah, and Allah also
loves to meet him. When a disbeliever is given the news of the Torment of Allah
and His Wrath (at the time of death), he dislikes to meet Allah and Allah also
abhors to meet him." (Sahih Muslim).

Abu Hazim was asked: "How will the returning to Allah be like?" He said: "As for the obedient, his return is like that of a loved one who was absent, so his family is eager for his return. As for the sinner, it will be like the return of a slave who run away, when he returns to his angry master." [quoted in Silent Moments by Abdul-Malik al-Qasim, pg. 114].

The above hadith tells us that the glad tidings of Jannah are given to believers at the time of their death. A believer, therefore, starts longing to meet Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
as a result of the good news he/she has received... Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!! Wa-Lillahil Hamd.
