The Spider
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.[29:57]
Every soul shall have a taste of death in the end to Us shall ye be brought back.

* v.57 : Cf. iii. 185, n. 491, and xxi. 35 and n. 2697. Death is the separation of the soul from the body when the latter perishes. We should not be afraid of death, for it only brings us back to Allah. The various kinds of hijrat or exile, physical and spiritual, mentioned in the last note, are also modes of death in a sense: what is there to fear in them?
