Death is a mere separation from the body. The body returns to the earth: while the real person [soul], goes to either Paradise or Hell, depending on whether he has repented or not. To the righteous, separation from the body [death], is a continuation of eternal life, God Almighty has given to all those who obey Him. Absent from the body is present with God. One day, God Almighty will destroy this world; and change it with a new one. :He said, behold I make everything new: new heaven and new earth. And the old ones will pass away Death is inevitable. People of all age groups and all works of life die: old or young; rich or poor; righteous or unrighteous; educated or not. It is appointed unto men to die but once; after that comes judgement. God Almighty has not planned it that everybody should grow old before dying. Else, many will be waiting till when they are getting old before repenting. God said, today is the day of salvation: tomorrow may be too late. When the days God has allowed an individual to live on earth is completed, He will take him.
