Slaughtering death (ذبح الموت)
العقيدة
المعنى الاصطلاحي :
Death will be brought on the Day of Judgment in the form of a ram and will actually be slaughtered then.
الشرح المختصر :
"Dhabh-ul-mawt" (slaughtering death) does not mean the angel of death (`Izraa'eel), to whom death is assigned; rather, it is the reality of death itself. The wisdom behind "dhabh-ul-mawt" is to make the dwellers of Paradise and those of Hellfire certain about remaining therein eternally, and about its being everlasting and never-ending.
