Near Death Experience And Angels
Faisal, I did not reach conclusion, but I wonder if something like this happen. There are clues in all directions. There are some clues that shows that angels may have made mistakes. Many people reported that they were sent back by a voice saying that it is not yet their time. I doubt it was Allah’s voice. That means they got there by mistake and since angels are responsible for taking soul, it means they made mistake. On the other hand, in Quran somewhere it says indirectly that angels do not make mistakes. If they were so prone to mistakes, this universe will not work smoothly. Some clues shows that NDE experience are specific to person’s faith so it points towards creation of hallucination by mind. On the other hand, some NDE experiences show the knowledge of facts that were impossible for them to know. This goes against hallucination theory. Some bad people experienced heaven and some good experienced hell. Most of them were nonMuslims. So lot of confusion. At the end no coclusion, but we should make thories and try to prove them.
I think it is also the part of Allah’s scheme. Another bayyanah for us from him. Another proof of life after death. The people who experience this are usually clinically dead. In my view Rooh is the one who experience this not the consciousness.
