A book in English in which its translator wrote in her forward, "Islam tells us what we can expect when we have finally made our exit from this world; we are also given ample guidance as to how we may best prepare ourselves and earn the rewards of Paradise in the Hereafter. In this book, the author outlines the Islamic teaching on death and the grave. It is an essential reading for any Muslim who wants to know more about the topic from the authentic sources of Islam.

A summarized translated version of the Book "At-Tadhkirah" (The Reminder) written by Imam Qurtuby in which he confirms that death is not the absolute end. It is just the discontinuation of unity between the body and soul, a change from one state to another, and a transition from this present life to that of the hereafter.
