Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
And do not ever assume that those who
are slain in Allah's cause, are dead; in fact they are alive with their
Lord, receiving sustenance. (Death does not mean extinction, it is the
passing of the soul from this world to another. In case of virtuous believers,
their bodies do not rot after death and they remain "alive", in the manner
Allah has ordained for them.)
