This is the third in the series. It deals with lessons and regulations relating to the calamity of death — all founded on authentic proofs from the Qurʾān and Sunnah, and guided by the understanding of eminent scholars of Islām. Most notably, it incorporates the views of Al-Albānī ﵀ in his book: Ahkām-ul-Janā’iz (Funeral Regulations).

This book covers the correct procedures for washing and shrouding a deceased Muslim, funeral and burial rites, the janāzah prayer, and other relevant issues. It also discusses heart-moving matters relating to the arrival of death, grieving and mourning, signs of good and evil ends, and visiting the graves.

In addition, this book contains extensive supplementary material and an enhanced presentation with tables and diagrams. This makes it a useful handbook, reference, and source of admonishment.
