Were ye witnesses when death appeared before Jacob? Behold, he said to his sons: "What will ye worship after me?" They said: "We shall worship Thy god and the god of thy fathers, of Abraham, Isma'il and Isaac,- the one (True) Allah: To Him we bow (in Islam)."

It is prescribed, when death approaches any of you, if he leave any goods that he make a bequest to parents and next of kin, according to reasonable usage; this is due from the Allah-fearing.

If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, Take the evidence of four (Reliable) witnesses from amongst you against them; and if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them, or Allah ordain for them some (other) way.

Of no effect is the repentance of those who continue to do evil, until death faces one of them, and he says, "Now have I repented indeed;" nor of those who die rejecting Faith: for them have We prepared a punishment most grievous.

"Wherever ye are, death will find you out, even if ye are in towers built up strong and high!" If some good befalls them, they say, "This is from Allah"; but if evil, they say, "This is from thee" (O Prophet). Say: "All things are from Allah." But what hath come to these people, that they fail to understand a single fact?

He who forsakes his home in the cause of Allah, finds in the earth Many a refuge, wide and spacious: Should he die as a refugee from home for Allah and His Messenger, His reward becomes due and sure with Allah: And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

O ye who believe! When death approaches any of you, (take) witnesses among yourselves when making bequests,- two just men of your own (brotherhood) or others from outside if ye are journeying through the earth, and the chance of death befalls you (thus). If ye doubt (their truth), detain them both after prayer, and let them both swear by Allah: "We wish not in this for any worldly gain, even though the (beneficiary) be our near relation: we shall hide not the evidence before Allah: if we do, then behold! the sin be upon us!"

He is the irresistible, (watching) from above over His worshippers, and He sets guardians over you. At length, when death approaches one of you, Our angels take his soul, and they never fail in their duty.

In gulps will he sip it, but never will he be near swallowing it down his throat: death will come to him from every quarter, yet will he not die: and in front of him will be a chastisement unrelenting.

(In Falsehood will they be) Until, when death comes to one of them, he says: "O my Lord! send me back (to life),-

and spend something (in charity) out of the substance which We have bestowed on you, before Death should come to any of you and he should say, "O my Lord! why didst Thou not give me respite for a little while? I should then have given (largely) in charity, and I should have been one of the doers of good".

当叶尔孤白临死的时候，你们在埸吗？当时，他对他的儿子们说：“我死之後，你们将崇拜甚麽？”他们说：“我们将崇拜你所崇拜的，和你的祖先易卜拉欣、易司马仪、易司哈格所崇拜的──独一的主宰──我们只归顺他。”

你们当中，若有人在临死的时候，还有遗产，那末，应当为双亲和至亲而秉公遗嘱。这已成你们的定制，这是敬畏者应尽的义务。

你们的妇女，若作丑事，你们当在你们的男人中寻求四个人作见证；如果他们已作证，你们就应当把她们拘留在家里，直到她们死亡， 或真主为她们开辟一条出路。

终身作恶，临死才说：“现在我确已悔罪”的人，不蒙赦宥；临死还不信道的人，也不蒙赦宥。这等人，我已为他们预备了痛苦的刑罚。

你们无论在什么地方，死亡总要追及你们，即使你们在高大的堡垒里。如果他们获得福利，他们就说：“这是真主所降赐的。”如果他们遭遇祸患，他们就说：“这是你所召致的。”你说：“祸福都是真主所降的。”这些民众，怎么几乎一句话都不懂呢？

谁为主道而迁移，谁在大地上发现许多出路，和丰富的财源。谁从家中出走，欲迁至真主和使者那里，而中途死亡，真主必报酬谁。真主是至赦的，是至慈的。

信道的人们啊!当你们中有人临终作遗嘱的时候，你们之间的作证，是你们（教胞）中两个公正人的作证，或别的两个外（教）人的作证，倘若你们旅行异乡，而病势垂危。礼拜之后，你们留著这两个证人，如果你们怀疑他们俩的忠实，他们俩就奉真主之名而发誓，说：“我们俩不以这个盟誓换取任何代价，即使我们俩所代证的，是我们俩的亲戚，我们俩也不隐讳真主所重视的证据；否则，我们俩必是犯罪的人。”

他是宰制众仆的，他派遣许多天神来保护你们。待死亡降临你们中的任何人的时候，我的众天使，将使他死亡，他们毫不疏忽。

一口一口地饮，几乎咽不下去。死亡将从各处降临他，但他永不会死。在那种刑罚之后，还有严峻的刑罚。

等到死亡降临他们中，一旦有人临危时，他才说：“我的主啊！ 求你让我返回人间，

在死亡降临之前，你们当分舍我赐予你们的，否则，将来人人说：“我的主啊！你为何不让我延迟到一个临近的定期，以便我有所施舍，而成为善人呢？”
