Surah Az-Zumar

Bismillaah ir rahmaan ir raheem

اللَّهُ يَتَوَفَّى الْأَنفُسَ حِينَ مَوْتِهَا وَالَّتِي لَمْ تَمُتْ فِي مَنَامِهَا فَيُمْسِكُ الَّتِي قَضَى عَلَيْهَا الْمَوْتَ وَيُرْسِلُ الْأُخْرَى إِلَى أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ﴿٤٢﴾
39/Az-Zumar-42: AAlleahu yatavaffal anfusa heena mavtihea vallatee lam tamut fee maneamihea, fa yumsikullatee kaadea aalayhal mavta va yursilul uhrea ilea acalin musammea(musamman), inna fee zealika la eayeatin li kaavmin yatafakkaroon(yatafakkaroona).

Imam Iskender Ali Mihr

Allah causes the physical bodies to die at the time of death. And those who are in their sleep, they are not dead, then He retains the one who will be decreed to die (the physical body of the person in the state of sleep) and sends the other (the soul) till an appointed term (wherever it desires to go in a dream). Most surely there are signs (lessons) in this for a people who reflect.
