Abstract:
In this paper, we first gather the contents of the library through the views of Islamic and non-Islamic philosophers and scholars on death. Then, by analyzing the content and comparing these theories with the Qur'an and the traditions, it is revealed that the fear of death causes human tendency to immortality. Therefore, people's responses to death vary depending on whether or not they believe in life after death. The greater the awareness of death, the less fear of death. This desire reflects the eternal reality of man and shows that there is an eternal and immortal life in the creation world. The scriptures, and above all the Quran, the traditions of the Ascension, the works of philosophers and mystics, poets and writers, each expressing this immortality in Islamic and non-Islamic texts. Death is an existential affair and transfer from one world to another. The disappearance of the fear of death does not mean that this fear will never exist. This fear, if temperate, guarantees one's health and avoids the dangers they face on a daily basis. According to philosophers and scientists, reforming attitudes toward death and reducing worldly attachments greatly reduces the fear of death. The acceptance of immortality and the posthumous worlds by Western and Islamic scholars and the inspiration for the Qur'an has largely solved the fear of death problem, helping to refine human attitudes about death.
