Islamic beliefs about life after death are essential. Muslims believe in the soul’s continuing existence and a transformed physical existence after death. Islam teaches that there will be a day of judgment when all people will be divided between those who merit an eternal life in Paradise and those who merit eternal fire in Hell. The Last Day is one of the Quranâs and the prophet Muhammad most important teachings. On the Last Day the world will witness cosmic upheaval and Allah will raise all the people from dead for their judgment. The Last day is also known as the Day of Judgment, Day of Separation, the Day of Reckoning, or Day of Standing Up, . Until that day, the souls of dead people remain in their tombs and wait for their resurrection, although, they begin to feel a taste of their destiny. They, who are destined to hell, will suffer in their graves and those who are destined to heaven, will stay in their graves in peace until the Last Day.
