Dying in the month of ramzan but buried after..........

[shorty]

Aslama alaikum,


How are you all?


Yesterday my friends came over for dinner, and after lunch we start having a little chat, the topic about death arised because of a recent death in the town.


In the month of ramadhan, unfortunatly, a young boy from here got beaten up to death, the one who passed away was a muslim, and so were the offenders. It hit everyone with shock, and couldnt believe that muslims were fighting with other muslim brothers on the holy month.


A disagreement arised, stating that he passed away in the holy month, but he never actually got buried till a few days ago, because they had to hold his body for post mortem. Some said that he will go straight to heaven, where as some disagreed and said that he will go through the normal process of death because he was buried after the holy month. Is this true?


Luckily those held responsible were arrested and will start there sentance soon.

Bismillah


As salam alykom


Shorty, the state of death is established by virtue of the soul leaving the body not the burial process, as far as i know and Allah Knows best. So insh a Allah he will benefit of Allah's Mercy and special treatment Allah Grants to those who die in Ramadan.

You answered ur own question , he "passed away" in Ramadhan , So inshallah like sis Muslimah said he will benefit from the blessed month of Ramadhan
