Question

JazakAllah Khairun.

Answer

We have not come across any reference of significance of dying in the month of Ramadhaan. However, Ramadhaan is a month of Allah's special mercy and we hope the deceased becomes a recepient of that special mercy by being forgiven by Allah.

May Allah Ta'ala grant us an honourable death and forgive us as we are full of sins and shortcomings. We depend only upon His mercy upon us.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
