Death is the passage from this brief life into the next eternal life. Each person will be resurrected to be held to account on the Day of Judgement. This Day ensures that justice prevails, as anyone who was wronged or oppressed in this life, will be compensated and dealt justly by Allah, the All-Knowing and Most Just. If a person lives a good, honourable life by worshipping and obeying Allah, they will be entered into Paradise, through Allah’s Mercy. If they choose to disbelieve, Hellfire awaits them.
If there was no afterlife in which the good were rewarded and the bad punished, that would contradict the perfect justice of God and life would not be fair.
