When the signs of death manifest on a person it is laudable (but not necessary) to lay the person on his right side with the limbs straightened and facing the qibla. The Prophet Muḥammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) instructed regarding the Ka‘ba, “It is your qibla alive or dead” (Sunan Abu Dawud, 2875). It is important that those who are present try to provide as much comfort as they can to the dying. There are a few religious rites that can be performed. Watch the video to learn more.
