Death is a reality and will come. Each person's life is pre destined; it can not be lengthened or shortened. When the time for death arrives, the angel of death comes and removes the person's soul and takes it away. However the soul does not die when it leaves the body, rather it lives in there are different places where the souls stay depending on faith and actions during one's life on the earth. The souls will stay there until the Day of Judgment. Wherever the soul is, it still has some kind of connection with the body and difficulties incurred by the body are felt by the soul. Peace for the body also results in peace for the soul. It recognises those that come to the grave and listens to their speech as well. soul is set free once the person dies, and the soul can go where it pleases. No place is too far or near for the souls, it is all the same.
