Assalamualikum wa'rahmattulahi wa'barakatuhu !
Would you like to know what happens when you sleep??
Allah says in the Quran:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death; and those that die not (He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from returning to life), but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term appointed. Verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quran, Chapter 39 verse 42
This means: every time you sleep, Allah takes your souls,
amongst many other souls he takes during sleeping.Then Allah decides who is going to be given another chance. For those who are blessed with another chance, Allah will permit their souls to go back to their bodies, the rest he keeps back from returning to life i.e. they die.
This means: each time you go to bed you should never be sure you
will get up again, you ONLY have 50% chance for coming back to life. This means: each time you go to bed you should be prepared for your hereafter. This means: when you wake up the next day you should appreciate how lucky (blessed) you are. And say "Blessed be the one who returned my soul to my body, and granted me another chance". This is what the prophet PBUH used to say when he wakes up. This means: when you wake up the next day you should make sure you utilize the new day as much as you can before sleep time comes, in case the new day you are living is the last chance you are given. This means: you should try to make sure you recite surah AL-MULK (chapter 67) before sleeping, because the prophet PBUH promised that one who reads this surah before sleeping is saved from the punishment of the grave.
May Allah forgive us all and bless us with a happy life in this dunya and the hereafter.

There's a really great reflection in that Ayaat. Ya Allah do not take our lives until all our sins have been forgiven.
W'sallam

Amen to that, for more reflection:
- where does your soul go when it's dreaming?
- where does god take your soul?
- why can't you ever remember being with god when he takes your soul?

Allah says in the Quran:
It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at
death; and those that die not
(He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He
has passed the decree of
death, He keeps back (from returning to
life), but
the rest He sends (to
their bodies) for a term appointed. Verily in
this are Signs for those
who reflect.
Quran, Chapter 39 verse 42
This means: every time you sleep, Allah takes
your souls, amongst many
other souls he takes during sleeping. Then Allah
decides who is going to
be given another chance. For those who are
blessed with another chance,
Allah will permit their souls to go back to their
bodies, the rest
he
keeps back from returning to life i.e. they die.
This means: each time you go to bed you should
never be sure you will get
up again, you ONLY have 50% chance for coming back
to life. This means:
each time you go to bed you should be prepared for
your hereafter. This
means: when you wake up the next day you should
appreciate how lucky
(blessed) you are. And say "Blessed be the one

body, and granted me another chance". This is
what the prophet PBUH used
to say when he wakes up. This means: when you wake
up the next day you
should make sure you utilize the new day as much
as you can before sleep
time comes, in case the new day you are living is
the last chance you are
given. This means: you should try to make sure you
recite sura AL-MULK
(chapter 67) before sleeping, because the prophet
PBUH promised that one
who reads this sura before sleeping is saved from
the punishment of the
grave.
May Allah forgive us all and bless us with a happy
life in this dunya and
