Question

Is there any significance in passing away on Friday, Ramadhan for a Muslim?

Answer

1). It is stated in the Hadith that a person that passes away on the day of Jumu’ah will be protected from the trials of the grave (i.e. he will not be questioned in the grave.)

[Fataawa Mahmoodiyya pg. 33/34 vol.13 Meerut print]

2). It is mentioned in the Hadith that the punishment of the grave is lifted from a person that passes away in Ramadhaan (Baihaqi)
