People are afraid of death and the shallow perspective is cowardice, but I think people are afraid of death because they are not used to the loss of control in this life.

I am a Muslim and my convictions to my beliefs, specially to the God of Abraham, Allah (SWT) made me not fear death. Not because I am super brave but because I already understood that I have no control in this life. After all, it is the God of Abraham that has control in this life. If I have control then why can't I control death? If everyone of us has real control then why can't we stop death? Death is the proof that destiny exist and that human free-will is bounded by it. The significance is that it turns out, we really don't have control of this life. It is God that has control and he sends the angel of death, Malak al-Mawt when it is our time.

So why fear death? Let the God of Abraham decide when.

Allahu Akbar!!!
