Ashraf's Advice Upon Death

This Revised Enlarged Edition of one of the most popular and comprehensive guide on the Death of a Muslim in English is based upon the authentic Teachings of Pious Scholars of Islam and outlines the method of acquiring success in this world & the Akhirah (Hereafter).

This New Edition is conveniently divided into user-friendly chapters for ease of reference and deals with Spiritual and practical issues:

* What to do upon the approach of a Muslims death and how to register a death; how to correctly bathe; shroud and bury the janazah; how to perform the janazah Salah. Common shortcomings on these occasions are highlighted: delaying janazah; feeding hordes of visitors; depriving women of their rightful inheritance; collective Quran completion ceremonies; etc.;

* What to do in cases of stillbirth; miscarriage and accidents;

* How to spiritually and practically cope with bereavement;

* Eye-Opening episodes related to death; the grave and poems based upon the epic Dars-e-Ibrat & Muraqabah Maut are related to make fascinating reading;

* How and when inheritance should be distributed and performance of those Sunnah deeds; which truly benefit the deceased;

* New fill-in copies of Health-Care Proxy & Living Will; Last Will & Testament are included...no need now to search for the will;

* The apparently daunting task of Probate and Grants are addressed in a simple step-by-step manner; the often ignored but prohibitive issue of Inheritance Tax is tackled with suggestions on how to legally avoid this voluntary tax on death.
