بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

39.42

اَللّٰهُ یَتَوَفَّى الْاَنْفُسَ حِیْنَ مَوْتِهَا وَ الَّتِیْ لَمْ تَمُتْ فِیْ مَنَامِهَاۚ-فَیُمْسِكُ الَّتِیْ قَضٰى عَلَیْهَا الْمَوْتَ وَ یُرْسِلُ الْاُخْرٰۤى اِلٰۤى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّىؕ-اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ یَّتَفَكَّرُوْنَ(42)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

Allah takes away the souls at the time of their death, and also those who do not die during their sleep; then He withholds those on whom He has passed the decree of death and leaves the other till an appointed term; there are definitely signs in this for people who reflect.

Commentary

Sleep is also a form of death, which is why upon sleeping and awakening, we should recite the supplications mentioned in the hadiths. A hadith states: “When the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم went to his bed at night, he would place his hand under his cheek and recite, “اَللّٰہُمَّ بِاِسْمِکَ اَمُوْتُ وَاَحْیَا”. And when he would wake up, he would recite “اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰہِ الَّذِیْٓ اَحْیَانَا بَعْدَ مَآ اَمَاتَنَا وَاِلَیْہِ النُّشُوْرُ” (Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Bukhārī: 6314)
