Do you know the benefits of Surat al-Mulk?
Assalamu Aleikom,
Prophet Muhammad (saws) said, 'Verily there is a Surah in the Quran which has 30 Ayats. It had interceded for a person until he was forgiven. That Surah is 'Tabarak allathi biyadihil mulk'. [Tirmidhi]
It's also called al-Waqiya (the Protector), al-Munjiyya (the Rescuer), al-Mani'a (the Defender), and al-Mujadila (the Arguer) because it argues on behalf of the one who knows it when he is in the grave.
Prophet Muhammad (saws) never used to sleep without reciting Surat al-Mulk, and he wished for it to be in the heart of every believer. Think of how easy it is to take 10 mins each night to recite it and at the end of your life, being so pleased with yourself because of its great benefits. Here is my favourite recitation, listen to it tonight before sleeping inshallah: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQmbq_YXp8s
My question is, what other ways are you preparing for a good death? Or have you not really thought of it enough to prepare? Is death a depressing topic to you?
Surely death is a blessing for a believer who is prepared, those who passed on are probably happier than we are now inshallah. May Allah make us all have beautiful deaths where the angels welcome out our souls with garments from Jannah, smell of musk, and glad tidings from Allah!
lol lots of starts, but not many answers...i take it that you all read it inshallah :)

Wa'alikum Aslaaaaaam my beloved friend..hope you are in the best of health inshaAllah <3
Hey, that's my favorite recitation from Al-Afasy SubhanaAllah, when i clicked on the link, i was like "Awwww, this is my favorite too" <3..I have memorized surat Al-Mulk because i used to listen to Afasy's recitation everyday..Alhumdullah..
-My question is, what other ways are you preparing for a good death?
After the death of My friend, i feel like i've changed a little, her death was a real shock to me. Alhumdullah, now I think of death often and try my best to do all sort of good deeds .subhanaAllah the best thing is that Allah Almighty rewards you for all sort of good deeds whether it be small or big. I am also training myself to remain more patience than ever. In the Quran, Allah repeatedly talks about patience more than honesty...indeed, remaining patient is kinda difficult sometimes, but inshaAllah i will try my best because Allah loves the patient and i want to be loved by my creator and sustainer. :)
Have you not really thought of it enough to prepare? Is death a depressing topic to you?
-Nope, it aint a depressing topic to me at least. Like you said my beloved friend, death is a blessing for a believer who dies in a state of Eman, they are the happiest people. May Allah make us die in a state of Eman and May He join you and I and all good muslims in the highest rank in paradise Ameen.
JazakAllah Alf khair my friend...<3<3
