Print Friendly and PDFPrint Friendly

Professor Omar Hasan Kasule Sr.

ABSTRACT
1.0 Introduction
Etiquette of the physician called adab al tabiib or khulq al tabiib is of current interest because technologizing medicine threatens to marginalize the human touch that is the essence of etiquette-based practice from the Islamic perspective. Etiquette-based practice is taught during training and cannot be achieved by policies. The most important aspect of medical education relating to etiquette is the integration of values into medical practice such that the future physician acquires a holistic view of the patient as a human with social, psychological, and spiritual needs and not merely as a case of pathology requiring technological intervention.

2.0 Purposes, principles, and values of etiquette-based medicine
Etiquette-based practice follows specific guidelines from the practice, sunnah, of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH in visiting the patients. It must fulfill the 5 major purposes of the Islamic Law, maqasid al shari'at, that are protection, preservation, and promotion of (a) religion, (b) life and good health, (c) the family, (d) human intellect, and (e) resources. It must be guided by principles that emphasize practice based on sincere intentions, evidence-based certainty, minimizing side effects of medical intervention, flexibility, and following established procedures / guidelines. Holistic medical practice based on the tauhidi paradigm is a total holistic approach involving the social, psychological, material, & spiritual dimensions. Physicians should be professionally competent, balanced, responsible and accountable. They must follow their conscience, do quality work, and behave with restraint, modesty, and objectivity.

3.0 Etiquette of the bedside visit
The physician-patient interaction based on brotherhood is both professional and social. The patient is a fellow human being in suffering and not an ‘object’ or a ‘case’. The human relation with the patient comes before the professional technical relation. It involves reassurance, psychological and social support, show of fraternal love, and sharing. Physicians must follow the etiquette of the prophet when visiting the sick: greeting, making dua because Allah's pre-determination can only be changed by dua, good encouraging words, asking about feelings, giving happiness, encouragement of patience and hope in cure, advice on 'ibadat and remembrance of Allah.

Physicians must be cheerful, lenient, merciful, and kind. They must enjoin the good, have good thoughts about the patients, and avoid evil or obscene words. Caregivers must have an attitude of humbleness. They cannot be emotionally-detached in the mistaken impression that they are being professional. They must be loving and empathetic and show mercifulness but the emotional involvement must not go to the extreme of being so engrossed that rational professional judgment is impaired. The caregivers must listen to the felt needs and problems of the patients. They should ask about both medical and non-medical problems. They must seek permission, isti' dhaan, when approaching or examining patients. Medical care must be professional, competent, and considerate. All their procedures must be preceded by basmalah. They must never promise cure or improvement but should defer to Allah's will after doing their best predicating their prognosis with the formula inshallah, if Allah wishes.

4.0 Etiquette with the family
Members of the patient's family deserve psychological support to family because they are also victims of the illness being anxious and worried. They need reassurance about the condition of the patient and can be involved in some aspects of supportive care so that they feel they are helping and are involved.

5.0 Etiquette with the dying
Physicians must continue communication with terminal patients and attend to their needs. Patients should be in a state of ritual purity, wudhu, all the time and should be helped to fulfill acts of physical worship as much as is possible. Physicians should prepare their patients for the eventuality of death. Spiritual preparation involves allaying anxiety, presenting death as a positive event, advice on thinking of Allah, and seeking repentance. Legal preparation Caregivers may advise or be witnesses to the last testaments of the patient. The caregiver should advise the terminal patient to remember all his outstanding debts and to settle them. The patient should be instructed such that the last words pronounced are the kalimat, the testament of the faith. Part of total care is to advise the family about the etiquette of morning and preparation of the body for burial.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
From the Islamic perspective the purpose of medicine is to maintain or improve the quality of life and not to prevent or postpone death because that is in the hands of the Creator. Integration of the curriculum, deriving from the the tauhidi paradigm, implies practice and teaching of medicine as a total holistic approach to the human in the social, psychological, material, & spiritual dimensions and not exclusively dealing with particular diseases or organs.

The disease model involving a biological or physical insult to the tissues is the main causal mechanism recognized and other contributors to the final causal pathway are not emphasized. The bias to the disease model explains European medicine being more curative than preventive. Illness to a Muslim has its positive aspects and can be a blessing and a reason for expiation of sins[i]. The trial of illness is a source of much good for a believer[ii]. An incident case of illness should not be looked at in isolation. When viewed in a larger context, illness or disease need not always be seen as bad. The Qur’an teaches that a human may like something that is bad for him or may hate something that is good for him[iii]. Falling ill may save a person from going where he would be hurt or where he could commit a sin. Pathophysiologically the symptoms of ill health are useful even if people complain about them. Pain directs us to tissue injury so that corrective measures may be taken before the injury becomes more extensive. Exhaustion and collapsing may be the body’s way of forcing us to take a rest when we are over-stressed or overworked without adequate rest. Much of what manifests as disease are the body’s attempts to return to the natural or normal state. The ultimate cure of illness is from Allah[iv]. The attending physician must realise that his efforts will suceed only if divine will intervenes and should therefore not be to arrogant. He shoud be aware that his efforts may fail or succeed. Physician arrogance and overuse of biomedical and technological interventions has sometimes led to the excesses of modern medicine in the form of side-effects (short and long-term) or iatrogenic diseases that are on the increase today.
From an Islamic point of view, the aim of medicine is to maintain or improve the quality of remaining life. Medicine does not have as an aim the prevention of death or prolongation of life; the ajal is in the hands of the Almighty[v]. Life on earth has a fixed and limited span and no one has the power to extend it even for a brief moment[vi]. Importance of quality of life is recognised by some physicians trained in the European tradition but lacking an integrating tauhidi paradigm, they fail to define this quality in a holistic way. Islam can provide them with paradigms that enable them to pull everything together. The Islamic Quality of Life Index (IQLI) arises from the tauhidi integrative paradigm and is a comprehensive measure involving social, psychological, physical, spiritual, and environmental parameters. The quality of life is closely related to man’s understanding of the purpose of creation and the mission of humans on earth. Life becomes degraded, hayatan dhankan[vii], in the absence of this understanding. The quality of life is also closely related to lifestyle. A good healthy lifestyle is associated with a higher quality of life. A bad unhealthy lifestyle is asociated with a low quality of life. Lifestyle is directly related to the riskof physical and mental illness as well as the response or adjustment to that illness. A healthy lifestyle is characterized by: piety, generosity, charity, chastity, humilioty, trust, balance, moderation, patience, endurance, honor and dignity, integrity, moral courage, and wisdom. An unhealthy lifestyle is mainly a manifestation of one of the following diseases of the heart: shirk, kufr, takabbur, ujb, hiqd, hasad, ghadhab, ghurur, hypocrisy, miserliness, and suu al dhann. These diseases sooner or later lead to either physical or psychological transgression, dhulm, against self or others. Most human diseases can be traced to this transgression. Epidemiological studies if interpreted in an objective way provide sufficient data to relate ill-health to lifestyle and to quality of life.

The Islamic paradigmatic approach to defining the pupose of medical education can be derived from the paradigm of tauhid and the general theory of the purposes of the Law, maqasid al sharia. The majority of scholars concur that the following 5 purposes are protected by the law: (a) religion, diin (b)  life, nafs (c) procreation, nasl (d) intellect, aql (e) wealth, maal.  Medical practice is intimately involved with all 5 of them but most so with nafs, nasl, and aql. Once the puposes of medical intervention are established, the aim of medical education should be to produce physicians who in their practice of medicine will fulfil that purpose or maqsad within a holistic context to ensure harmony and equilibrium. Thus the medical education system should aim at producing a physician who will be health and not disease oriented, who will have the humility to know that he will exert his best and trust in Allah to cure the disease. He will not have the arrogance to feel that he can prevent death but will strive to improve the quality of life for people knowing that the Islamic index of the quality of life is derived from the wholistc tauhidi view: physical, spiritual, social, psychological aspects and proper balance between them. The physician should in addition have the following practical and conceptual skills: understanding of the society, epidemiological understanding of health problems, scientific capability, clinical expertise, and leadership. These qualities must be in a context of iman, tauhid and fulfilment of the general purposes of the sharia. Islamic ambience for medical education.

European medicine is characterized by narrow specialization and fragmentation. Physicians know more and more about less and less. The trend toward specialization in medical practice has strongly influenced medical educators to diminish the practical content of the crowded undergraduate program and transfer some of it to post-graduate or vocational training. A new graduate from medical school is therefore unable to treat a patient on his own until he becomes a specialist. Specialty practice however has the great disadvantage of fragmenting patient care among several specialists such that there is no one doctor to care for the whole patient. The fragmentation of medicine is reflected in the balkanization of administration (by department), stages of education (pre-medical, pre-clinical, and clinical) and by discipline or specialty. Separate curricular tracks for research and practice have even been suggested. In many cases each department teaches independently of others. Specialist physicians find it difficult to teach students who are just being introduced to medicine.
Integration is not just putting two or more disciplines together. It is a fundamental philosophical attitude based on a vision and a guiding paradigm. Only Islam can provide this paradigm. Criticism of the fragmented medical curriculum is actually criticism of the underlying European non-tauhid world-view. The fundamental reason for failure of integration efforts is that the European world-view is atomistic, it is good at analysis and not synthesis. It is incapable of synthesis because it lacks an integrating paradigm like tauhid.

Lack of equilibrium is a secondary manifestation of lack of integration. A lot of human illness is due to lack of balance and equilibrium; for example excessive intake of some foods leads to disease just as inadequate intake leads to ill-health. The Qur’an calls for observing the equilibrium, al wastiyyat[viii]. Violating the rule of the golden middle is associated with many problems. Lack of balance is condenmed as: taraf[ix] and israaf[x].

Tauhidi is the main paradigm in Islamic civilization that forms a backbone of all intellectual discussion of medical education. Tauhid al rububiyyat motivates the appreciation that there is only one creator and that thee is unity, harmony and useful interconnections among different forms of life amnd the physical environment. Tauhid al uluhiyyat motivates the appreciation that the creator has definite purposes from creation and that human life must fulfil those purposes. This implies that there are certian laws that lead to a fulfilling life. Obeying those laws is associated with a healthy high-quality life-style. The tauhidi paradigm implies integration and harmony of matter and soul, body and mind, parts and the whole.

The physician should be trained to practise medicine as a total holistic approach to the human in the social, psychological, material, & spiritual dimensions and not an attack on particular diseases or organs. The example of the early Musim physicians is worth emulating. They were well rounded in their education and their practice of medicine. They were also integrated in the sense that their medical practice fitted in well with other social activities. Al Qadhi Abd al Razaaq used to teach medicine and mathematics in the mosque in Bukhara until his death. Muwaffaq al Ddiin Abd al Latiif al Baghdadi taught medicine in the Azhar mosque during his stay in Egypt[xi]. Thus the context and the environment in which the teaching was carried out was integrative. It integrated medicine with the mosque and worship.
The tauhidi approach to integration is putting medical knowledge, teaching and practice in a larger context to making sure it is in harmony and is well coordinated with other related medical or non-medical phenomena. It is therefore possible to envison a very ‘integrated’ doctor who at the same time is very specialized. Such a doctor will approach the patient as a whole human and not just as organs or tissues.

An ideal Muslim physician is a multi-dimensional character described as having iman, taqwah, amanat, and akhlaq
IMAN
Three aspects of iman bear directly on medical practive: tauhid; predestination, qadar; and contemplation, tafakkur. The integrating paradigm of tauhid enables the physician to practice integrated and balanced medical care as explained before. Belief in qadar guide the physician in his work to know and understand that Life and health, and illness & cure are in the hands of Allah. He will understand that he is a tool and not the reason for the cure; all cure if from Allah. The physician has limited knowledge and limited ability, qudrat, and should not be arrogant. After doing all what is humanly possible for his patients, the believing physician trusts in Allah's help and support. A believing physician will know that he cannot change the time of death, ajal, since that is under Allah’s direct control. He will concentrate on improving quality of remaining life for his patients. As the believing physician goes about his daily chores, he contemplates, tafakkur, about all what he sees. Medical knowledge and actual clinical experiences increase iman because the physician realizes the power and majesty of Allah who created the complex human organism and who cures it from the most severe diseases.
TAQWAT
A believing physician is conscious that Allah is watching and is ever-present. He knows that other humans observe his actions. He will do well in public and private. He will strive to know the permitted, halal, and do it. He will even more intensely strive to know what is prohibited, haram, and avoid it. He will avoid being involved in prohibited medical procedures that result in destruction of life such as abortion, euthanasia, and assisted suicide. He will keep away from fraud, false evidence, lying and misrepresentation. He will not dispense forbidden, haram, medication.
AMANAT
A believing physician will take his medical work as a trust, amanat. The trust involves three dimensions: commitment and sincerity of intentions, ikhlas al niyyat; quality work, itqan & ihsan; and social responsibility of dawa and being a role model, qudwat. A sincere intention increases commitment. Medical practice is ibadat for the pleasure of Allah. Medicine is also a form of charity. The motivation of the physician should therefore be service and not personal enrichment and material gain. A believing physician will try to excel in his clinical responsibilities by making sure that he tries to achieve perfection, itqaan, and excellence, ihsaan. Professional competence can not be compromised in any way. It is a major sin to undertake any medical procedure beyond

2.0 ETIQUETTE OF THE BED-SIDE VISIT
2.1 OBLIGATION TO VISIT THE PATIENT, wujuub iyadat al mariidh
The physician-patient interaction is a dual function, professional and social. The physician must know both roles and be competent in both. The ward rounds fulfil one of the social obligations of visiting the sick. Visiting the sick is an obligation[xii]. Visiting the sick has a lot of merit, fadhl iyadat al mariidh[xiii]. Care givers get a lot of reward from Allah for fulfilling this social obligation in addition to the rewards for their medical work The caregiver should interact with the patient as a fellow human. The human relation has priority over the professional patient-physician relation. Some bedside visits should therefore be purely social with no medical procedures or medical discussions. The social and human aspects of the physician-patient interaction make the physician more humane and he will make fewer mistakes professionally. The social interaction gives the patient more reassurance and psychological calmness which may have beneficial effects on immune competence. A psychologically satisfied patrient is more likely to be cooperative in taking medication, eating, or drinking. The bed-side visit is an opportunity for the caregiver to show fraternal love. The prophet enjoined us to show love to those we love, idha ahabba al rajul akhahu faliyu’ulimahu[xiv]. The visit is also an opportunity to share with others. The prophet taught that a person can not be a believer until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself, la yuminu ahadukum hatta yuhibba li akhiihi ma yuhibbu li nafsihi[xv] . The physician is undertaking igathat al malhuufi.

2.2 PROPHET’S VISITING A PATIENT
The prophet regularly visited his companions who fell sick[xvi]. He visited Sa’ad ibn ;Ubadat in his illness, ziyarat al nabiyy li sa’ad fi maradhihi[xvii]. He even visited patients who were among the evil persons such as Abd al laah bin Ubayy bin Suluul[xviii]. His behavior at the bedside of the patient is good guidance for both the physician and the other visitors to the patient. The books of sirah have preserved for us memories of such visits such as what the prophet said during the visit[xix].

2.3 GREETING THE  PATIENT
The following are recommended actions during a visit to the patient. The caregiver should greet the patient before speaking about anything else, al salaam qabla al kalaam[xx]. The physician has the obligation to initiate the greeting because the etiquette is that the standing person is the one to initiate greetings, al mashi yusallimu ‘ala al qaa’id[xxi].

2.4 DUA FOR THE PATIENT
The caregiver makes a supplication, dua,  for the patient[xxii]. The dua can be generalized to pray for relief from fever and pain, dua min al humma wa al awjaa’u[xxiii]. Reading Qur'an for the patient is recommended[xxiv]. Recitation of the Qur’an is accompanied by calmness, nuzuul al sakinat ‘inda qira’at al Qur’an[xxv]. The Qur'an is the best medicine, khayr al dawa al Qur’an[xxvi]Dua is a cure, al dua dawau[xxvii].

2.5 TALKING WITH THE PATIENT
The Prophet gave us guidance on what can be said and what should not be said in the presence of the patient[xxviii]. Positive words encourage while negative ones discourage the patient and indirectly affect response to treatment mediated by psycho-immune mechanisms. The good word is charity, al kalimat al laytinat sadaqat[xxix]. The following are enjoined: asking about the patient’s feelings, sua'al anhu, doing good/pleasing things for the patient, ihsaan, making the patient happy, tatyiib nafs al maiidh, and encouraging the patient to be patient, tashjiu al mariidh[xxx]. The patient should be discouraged from wishing for death wishing death, tamanni al mawt[xxxi].The caregivers should use the opportunity of interaction with the patient to give them nasiihat because religion is sincere advice, al ddiin al nasiihat[xxxii]. Special emphasis should be placed on remembering Allah because the Prophet remembered Allah at all times, dhikr al llaah ‘ala kulli al ahyaan[xxxiii].  
The physician should behave with the patient as if he is visiting him at home with all the respect and considerations that are due. This covers getting permission, isti idhaan[xxxiv] and manner of conversation. It is for example prohibited for the caregivers to engage in secret discussion, najwa, that does not involve the patient[xxxv]. The physician should appreciate and understand the psychology of the patient who is deprived of the bounty of good health and is likely to be depressed. The prophet said many people are deprived of two bounties, health and relaxation, ni’mataan maghbuun fiihina kathiir min al naas al sihat wa al ‘aafiyat[xxxvi].

2.6 RESPECTING RIGHTS OF THE PATIENT
INFORMED CONSENT
No patient should be treated without their free informed consent. Use of a consent form prevents misunderstanding. Patients have a right to refuse medical treatment. Physicians must be careful to explain medical procedures to patients. In an emergency the physician can provide life-saving treatment if there is no opportunity to get informed consent. Transplantation requires informed consent from both the donor and the recipient. The consent of a dead donor could be in the form of a will or consent by relatives. When the police of other law enforcement agencies ask the physician to examine a patient and obtain specimens, there is no requirement of informed consent by the patient. Forced transfer of a patient to hospital may be necessary but must be carried out following legal and ethical guidelines. Patients must give consent to be able to participate as research subjects. Epidemiological research that does not include identifiers can be carried out without patient consent.

2.7 PREVENTION OF CONTAGION
The caregiver should be careful not to transfer any infectionto the patient. If he is afflicted by a transmissible infectious disease he should not visit, la yuuridu mumridhi ala musihhi[xxxvii]. He should take measures not to get infected by avoiding sources of infection. The prophet for example advised to run away from lepers for fear of transfer of infection[xxxviii].

2.8 APPEARANCE OF THE CAREGIVER
The caregivers must make sure that they are clean and are dressed appropriately. The type and style of dress create impressions and convey messages. The dress, hair, and shoes of the caregiver must convey the impression of a serious, organized and disciplined person. The use of cosmetics should be limited to just covering up any defects and restoring the normal, average, and natural appearance. Excessive use of cosmetics conveys the impression of egoism and lack of seriousness. Perfumes should be used in moderation to suppress any unpleasant body odors. Excessive use,  when the patient is aware that the caregiver is wearing perfume, is discouraged.

2.9 MANNERISMS OF THE CAREGIVER
Caregivers must have a cheerful disposition, imbisaat[xxxix]. They must deal with patients with leniency, rifq[xl], mercy, rahmat[xli] and kindness, hilm[xlii]. Allah desires kindness in everything, al llaahu yuhibbu al rifq fi kulli shay[xliii]. They must strive to do enjoin virtue, ma'aruf[xliv]. They must also have only good thoughts about their patients, husn al dhann[xlv]. They must avoid evil or obscene words[xlvi]. It is important for the caregiver to have full interaction with the patient but must still observe the rules of lowering the gaze, ghadh al basar, except when medical necessity dictates otherwise. Caregivers should also avoid being alone with a patient of the opposite gender which could constitute khalwat. Caregivers must not be arrogant and show off[xlvii]. They must adopt an attitude of humbleness, tawadhu'u[xlviii] all the time.

2.10 EMOTIONAL INVOLVEMENT
It is very wrong for caregivers to adopt a detached emotionally-neutral disposition thinking that is the way of being professional. Caregivers must be loving and empathetic, tawadud & tarahum[xlix]. They must show mercifulness, rahmat[l]. The emotional involvement must however not go to the extreme of being so engrossed that rational professional judgement is impaired.

3.0 DEALING WITH THE FAMILY
3.1 RIGHTS OF VISITATION FOR THE FAMILY
Some caregivers restrict family visits for some very good reasons: disturbing hospital routines, not giving the patient time to rest, and spread of infection. These however should be compared to the psychological benefits to the patient and family of visits to the hiospital. Family visits contribute to joining kindred relations which has a lot of rewards, ajr silat al rahim[li]. The physician should not prevent family interactions because of medical needs but must try to look for a compromise such as restricting visits to certain hours of the day. The physicians should look at the family visiting as guests of the hospital. It is obligatory to honor the guest, wujuub ikraam al dhaif[lii]. The rights of the guest, huqquq al dhaif[liii], should be extended to the family.

3.2 SUPPORT
The family is also a victim when any member falls sick. The caregiver must provide psychological support to them. Sometimes even material support may be necessary. It should be remembered that part of the well being of the patient is to know that the family left behind is not suffering.

3.3 REASSURANCE:
Illness is a cause of much anxiety for the family. The caregiver must take time to reassure the family by explaining what is going and assuring them that the best care is being given. They must be told not to give up hope because Allah in His power can reverse the most serious or critical conditions. In communicating with the family caregivers must make sure they do not violate medical confidentiality except where it is necessary, dharurat.

3.4 INVOLVEMENT
Caregivers should similarly realise the importance of visits by relatives and friends and should plan their ward routines to maximize such visits. The family can be involved in some aspects of supportive care. This is helping them fulfil kindred obligations, silat al rahim. It uplifts the patient's morale to see that the family care and are around being involved.

3.5 WHAT NOT TO DO
Interference:
Caregivers should be on the guard to make sure that the eagerness of the family to be of assistance and to be involved does not step beyond the limits. The family may interfere with medical care causing disturbance of the medical routines. This should be resisted with firmness.
Conflict:
Illness is a stressful condition that generates anxiety in the family. It may initiate conflicts or aggravate existing ones. Caregivers may unwittingly find themselves in the middle of such conflicts. They should have the clarity of mind to understand that it is none of their business solving family conflicts. If they do they may regret it since they may become party to the conflict and are considered by some members of the family to favor other members.

4.0 ETIQUETTE OF THE PATIENT
A. GRATITUDE
The patient should always express gratitude to those taking care of him or her even if there is no marked physical improvement. The patient should complain only to draw attention to problems that need attention. Complaints for other purposes should be minimal
B. PATIENCE
The patient should be patient in the knowledge that illness is kaffaarat[liv]. Allah may afflict someone when He desires good for him, man yurid al llahu bihi khayran yaswibu minhu[lv].
C. DUA
The patient should make dua for himself and others. The dua of the patient has a special position with Allah  (  ). The patient should never hesitate to make dua for a visitor who asks for it.
D. ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING
ETIQUETE OF SNEEZING
When a patient sneezes he should praise Allah, idha ‘atasa ahadukum hamida al llahu[lvi]. He should cover his mouth to avoid spread of infections[lvii]. It is obligatory for those who hear the sneeze to respond to the sneezer  using a formula taught by the prophet[lviii].
EATING and DRINKING
The patient should try his best to eat and drink although the appetite may be low. The caregivers can not force the patient to eat. They should try their best to provide the favorite food of the patient.
E. EMOTIONS
HOPE
The believing patient should never lose hope from Allah. He should never wish for death ANGER
The patient should try his best to avoid anger directed at himself or others. Getting angry is a sign of losing patience.

3.0 ETIQUETTE WITH THE DYING
A. OVERVIEW
THANATOLOGY
Thanatology is a discipline that deals with the study of death and dying. It covers the psychological reactions to death, bereavement and grief behavior, as well as ethico-legal issues such as euthanasia, life support, and organ donation. Mourning behavior among relatives of the deceased differ by culture and custom.
COMFORT:
PAIN CONTROL
Narcotics are given for severe pain. Drugs are used to allay anxiety and fears.
COMMUNICATION
The caregivers should maintain as much communication as possible with the dying.
COMFORT
They should attend to needs and complaints and not give up in the supposition that the end was near.
HYGIENE
Attention should be paid to the patient's hygiene such as cutting nails, shaving hair, dressing in clean clothes.
WUDHU
As much as possible the dying patient should be in a state of rutual purity, wudhu, all the time.
B. IBADAT:
SALAT
The dying patient should as far as is possible be helped to fulfil acts of worship especially the 5 canonical prayers. Tayammum can be performed if wudhu is impossible, tayammum al mariidh[lix]. The prophet gave guidance on salat foir the sick, salat al mariidh[lx]. Physical movements should be restricted to what the patient's health condition will allow. There us guidance on salat even for the unconscious patient, salat al mughma ‘alayhi[lxi].
SAUM
It is wrong for a patient in terminal illness to start fasting on the grounds that he will die anyway whether he ate enough food or not.
ZAKAT
llness does not interefere with the payment of zakat since it is a duty related to the wealth and not the person
HAJJ
It is also wrong for a patient in terminal illness to go for hajj with the intention of dying and being buried in Hejaz.
OTHERS
C. SPIRITUAL PREPARATION.
ALLAYING FEAR
There is a balance between fear and hope. Too much fear of death leads to despair, ghalabat al khawf ila al ya as. Too much hope may lead to a feeling of security with Allah, ghalabat al raja ila al amn min al Allah, that is dangerous. Death of the believer is an easy process that should not be faced with fear or apprehension. The process of death should be easier for the believer than the non-believer[lxii]. The believer dies with ‘araq al jabiin[lxiii]. The soul of the believer is removed gently[lxiv]. Believers will look at death pleasantly as an opportunity to go to Allah. Allah loves to receive those who love going to Him[lxv]. The patient should be taught to accept the illness and its consequences like physical anomalies and death. The patient should be patient. Patience is when we do not complain  The patient should be encouraged to look forward to death because death from some forms of disease confers martyrdom. Dying from plague is martyrdom, al ta’un shahadat[lxvi]. Death from mabtuun is martyrdom[lxvii]. Death by drowning is martyrdom[lxviii]. Death from dhaat al janb is martyrdom[lxix]. Death in the post-partum period is martyrdom[lxx]. Accepting the disease, al ridha bi al maradh. Accepting disability, al ridha bi al ‘aahat.
TALQIIN
Talqiin of kalimat al tauhid should be before and not after death. The prophet (PBUH) said : laqqinu mawtaakum la ilaaha illa al llaah[lxxi]. He whose last word on earth is la ilaaha illa al llaah will enter paradise[lxxii].
LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING ALLAH
They should be told that Allah looks forward to meeting those who want to meet Him[lxxiii]. Dying with Allah's pleasure[lxxiv] is the best of death and is a culmination of a life-time of good work.
THINKING OF ALLAH
Thinking well of Allah is part of faith[lxxv] and is very necessary in the last moments when the pain and anxiety of the terminal illness may distract the patient's thoughts away from Allah. Having hope in Allah at the moment of death[lxxvi] makes the process of dying more acceptable.
REPENTANCE
The dying patient should be encouraged to repent because Allah accepts repentance until the last moment, allahu yaqbalu al taubat ma lam yugharghir[lxxvii].
D. LEGAL PREPARATION
HELPING PATIENT MAKE A  WILL:
The prophet said that no Muslim with some property should sleep 2 nights without a written will[lxxviii]. There is no will for any inheritor, la wasiyat li waarith[lxxix]. During the long period of hospitalization, the health care givers develop a close rapport with the patient. A relationship of mutual trust can develop. It is therefore not surprising that the patient turns to the care givers in confidential matters like drawing a will. The health carwe givers as witnesses to the will must have some elementary knowledge of the law of wills and the conditions of a valid will, shuruut al wasiyyat. One of these conditions is that the patient is mentally competent. The law accepts clear signs by nodding or using any other sign language as valid expressions of the patient's wishes. The law allows bequeathing a maximum of one third of the total estate to charitable trusts, waqf, or gifts. More than one third of the estate can be bequeathed with consent of the inheritors. Debts must be paid before death or before the division of the estate.
ORGAN DONATION:
A terminal patient can make living will regarding donation of his organs for transplantation. The caregiver must explain all what is involved so that an informed decision is made. The caregiver may be a witness. It is however preferable that in addition some members of the family witness the will to ensure that there will be no disputes later.
DIVORCE IN TERMINAL ILLNESS
The caregiver may be a witness to pronouncement of divorce by a terminally ill patient. The pronouncement has no legal effect if the patient is judged legally incompetent on account of his illness. If the patient is legally competent, the divorce will be effective but the divorcee will not lose her inheritance rights, haqq al mutalaqaat fi al miraath[lxxx].
SETTLEMENT OF OUTSTANDING DEBTS
The caregiver should advise the terminal patient to remember all his outstanding debts and to settle them. The Prophet said that the soul of a believer is hanging by its debts until they are paid[lxxxi]. The prophet used to desist from offering the funeral prayer for anyone who died leaving behind debts and no assets to seetle them. He however would offer the prayer if someone undertook to pay the debt[lxxxii]. If the deceased has some property, the debts are settled before any distribution of the property among the inheritor, qadhau al dayn qabla qismat al mirath[lxxxiii].
OTHERS
E. DEATH, BURIAL, and MOURNING
THE LAST MOMENTS
The last moments are very important. The patient should be instructed such that the last words pronounced are the kalimat, the testament of the faith. Reciting Qur’an in the last moments is mustahabb, qira’at al qur’an ‘ala al muhtadhir mustahabb but reading it for the dead is considered bid’at by some jurists. The dying should be taught the testament 'la ilaaha illa al llaahu'[lxxxiv]. Surat Yaasiin is read to them[lxxxv] in addition to supplications, dua[lxxxvi]. On death, the body is covered[lxxxvii]. It is placed in such a way that it is facing the qiblat. Eyes are closed and the body is covered. Qur'an and dua are then recited. Kissing the body is allowed[lxxxviii]. Debts of the deceased must be settled before proceeding further with rituals of burial[lxxxix].
ETIQUETTE OF MOURNING:
The health care giver should take the initiative to inform the relatives and friends. They should be advised about the shariah rules on mourning. Weeping and dropping tears are allowed. Condolences for the bereaved, ta’aziyat al musaab, is in the form ‘inna li al llaah akhadha ma a’ata wa kullu shay I ‘indahu bi ajal musammah fa tasbiruu wa litahtasibuu (Bukhari). The prophet gave guidance about what the bereaved can say if informed of the death, ma dha yaqulu man balaghahu mawt insaan[xc]. On receiving the news of death it suffices to say ' we are for Allah and to Him we will return' inna li laahi wa inna ilaihi raaji’una allahuma ajirni fi musibati wa akhlifuni khayran minhu[xci]. The following are not allowed: tearing garments, shaving the head, slapping the cheek, wailing, and crying aloud. The deceased is punished for the loud crying of the relatives[xcii]. Words of condolence are as follows: ina li laahi ma akhadha wa lahu ma a’ata wa kullu shayi’i indahu bi ajalimusamma falitasbiru litahtasibu (Muslim).’ Relatives are conforted by telling them hadiths of the prophet about death. These hadiths talk about the reward of the person who loses his beloved one and he is patient[xciii]. Death of children protects the parents from hell fire[xciv].  Relatives and neighbors have to prepare food according to the order of the prophet for food to be prepared for the family of Ja’afar (Abudaud and Tirmidhi).
PREPARATION OF THE BODY FOR BURIAL: 
The health care team should practise total care by being involved and concerned about the processes of mourning, preparation for bural and the actual burial. They should participate along with relatives as much as is possible. The preparation of the body for burial can be carried out in the hospital. There is no harm in reciting Qur’an before washing the body, la ba asa min qira at al qur’an ‘ala al mayyit qabla ghaslihi. The body must be washed and shrouded before burial. Perfume can be put in the water used for washing the body[xcv]. Men preferably should wash men and women wash women; a man could wash a woman (BG443 Ahmad and Ibn Majah, BG444 Darqutni). Care must be taken not to damage the body such as breaking bones (BG468 Muslim). The body is shrouded in simple white garments (BG439 Ahmad, Abudaud, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah) with no extravagance (BG442 Abudaud). It is allowed to uncover the face of the corpse. The washing should start with the right. The organs normally washed in wudhu are washed first then the rest of the body is washed. Perfume can be used except for those who died while in a state of ihram, man maata wa huwa muhrim la yamussu taiba[xcvi]. Women's hair has to be undone. After washing the body is shrouded, kafn, in 2 pieces of cloth preferably white in colour. It is an innovation to raise the voice while carrying the janazat even it it is recitation of the Qur’an. It is not an obligation to wash the body of shuhada but it is not forbidden. It is mustahabb to stand for a passing funeral bier out of respect.
SALAT AL JANAZAT:
Salat al janazatSalat al janazat is performed to pray for the dead as fardh kifayat fulfilled by 1 male and if no males are available it is fulfilled by females. One salat al janazat can be offered for several corpses simultneously. Salat al janazat being a dua can be repeated several times for the same corpse. However a person who has already offered salat al janazat does not repeat unless he is the only one qualified to be imaam. It is allowed for the deceased to make a will that a particular individual lead salat al janazat. As many persons as possible should participate in this salat. If 100 persons pray for the dead, it is shafaa[xcvii]. Salat al janazat is held for all the dead even those executed for infringement of huduud (BG445 Muslim). Salat al janazat is held in the mosque for women who died during haidh or nifaas. The scholars and the righteous, ahl al ‘ilm wa al ddiin,  should not participate in salat al janazat for those who commit evil openly, commit major sins, those who do not establish salat, those who commit suicide (BG446 Muslim), or those who are openly munafiq. This is done as punishment for the evil doer and also as a lesson and warning for others. They however should not stop ordinary people from offering salat al janazat. Some people must offer salat al janazat for these persons. It is not permitted to ask for mercy, al tarahhum, for one who dies as a kaafir or as an evildoer. Salat al janazat is held just before burial. It can be held while the corpse is still being carried. It could be held after burial (BG447 Bukhari and Muslim) and for a deceased buried elsewhere, salat al ghaib (BG449 Bukhari and Muslim). Salat al janazat cannot be held in the cemetry.
The books of sunnat have given guidance about the etiquette of salat al janazat, sifat salat al janazat[xcviii]. The corpse is placed on its right side with the face towards qiblat. The imaam stands at the head of the male corpse and at the lower end of the female corpse. Salat al janazat consists of 4 takbirs without any bowing or prostration. Surat al fatiha is recited after the first takbir (BG456 Bukhari). This recitation is mustahabb and is not waajib. Salat ‘ala al nabi is recited at the second takbir. Dua is recited for the deceased at the third takbir (BG457 Muslim, BG458 Muslim, Abudaud, Tormidhi, Nisai, and Ibn Majah, BG459 Abudaud, ‘umdat 232). The following formula is recited at the fourth takbir ‘allahuma la tahrimuna ajrahu wa la taftinna ba’adahu’. Dua (istighfar) in salat al janazat[xcix]. This is followed by tasliim.
ACCOMPANYING THE FUNERAL PROCESSION, TASH'YII AN JANAZAT:
 Burial should be hastened, ta'ajil bi al janzat[c]. Following the procession is enjoined[ci]. There are big rewards for accompanying the funeral procession[cii]. There is more reward for accompanying the funeral procession and staying until burial is completed[ciii]. The funeral bier is carried by men. Women do not follow the janazat. Hurrying in marching to the grave is recommended.
BURIAL and AFTER BURIAL
Burial (dafn):
The cemetery of Muslims should be far away from that of non-Muslims. The body should be buried in a deep grave facing Makka. It is makruuh to bury 2 corpses in the same grave. It is not permitted for a person to dig his own grave before death because a human can never know the time and place of death. If the  deceased is buried without washing or without salat al janazat or without facing the qibla, the body is exhumed and is reburied properly after washing and salat al janazat. If however the body has already decomposed it should not be exhumed. Adhaan during burial is bid’at.
After burial:
The relatives are consoled and food is made for them. It is against the sunnat for the bereaved to make food for the mourners. The prophet taught the etiquette of mourning, hidaad, and condolences, ta’ziyah. Women in mourning should not touch any perfume, la taqrabu al haadat al taib[civ]. The mourning of a woman does not exceed 3 months unless the deceased was her husband. Weak hadiths were reported about talqiin al mayyit after burial. Talqiin is not waajib. Some jurists consider it makruuh but not haram. Shafe’e jurists consider it mustahabb. Some jurists consider talqiin a form of bid’at. It is not correct to bring a person to recite Qur’an at the qabr after burial. It is however allowed to make dua for the deceased and to give sadaqat on his behalf. It is however forbidden to give the sadaqat from the maal of the orphans. If the deceased died in kufr and shirk, no dua or sadaqat is made for him. It is allowed to recite Qur’an, to offer salat, and to make tawaaf with the intention of donating the thawaa to the deceased. It is wrong to partition the thawaab of any good act done between the living and the dead. A child born of zina can donate thawaab of his work to his father even if he did not know him. It is forbidden to slaughter animals at the grave or to eat what what slaughtered at the qabr. It is however allowed to slaughter away from the qabr and to distribute the meat to the poor as thawaab for the deceased. It is forbidden to build structures on the grave but putting something to identify who is in the qabr is allowed. Building a mosque at a qabr is prohibited. It is also prohibited to build mosques between graves. Putting lamps on the qabr is shirk. Making dua to the deceased is major shirk.
Visiting the qabr is desirable since it reminds the living of death. The following is recited while visiting the qabr ‘assalaam alaykum ahl al diyaar min al mu uminiin wa al muslimiin wa inna in shaaha al allaahu bikum laahiquun, nas al al llaahu lana wa lakum al ‘aafiyat’. Does the visitor face the grave of face the qiblat during the recitation?. Some jurists allow reciting Qur’an in the cemetery but others consider it makruuh. There is argument among jurists on whether prohibition of women visiting graves is nahy tanziih ir nahy tahriim. Visiting graves of kuffaar for I’itibaar is allowed. It is permitted for a kaafir to visit the grave of a Muslim.
Special cases:
A woman who dies with a dead fetus in her uterus should be buried without attempting to remove the fetus. The grave can be opened for forensic examination if there is a legal necessity for that. Carrying the dead for burial in another country is generally frowned upon.
Talking about the deceased:
Say only good things. The good words about the dead, thanau al nass ala al mayt[cv]. It is forbidden to curse the deceased. The exception are the leaders of kufr. Aimmat al kufr, who had influence on people.
Reward and punishment
The ruh and body of the deceased is rewarded, tana’um, or is punished, ‘adhaab

5347 - حدثنا آدم: حدثنا شُعبة: حدثنا ثابت البناني، عن أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه:
قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: (لا يتمنينَّ أحدكم الموت من ضُرٍّ أصابه، فإن كان لا بد فاعلاً، فليقل: اللهم أحيني ما كانت الحياة خيراً لي، وتوفني إذا كانت الوفاة خيراً لي).
[5990، وانظر: 6806].

دخلنا على خبَّاب نعوده، وقد اكتوى سبع كيَّات، فقال: إن أصحابنا الذين سلفوا مضوا ولم تنقصهم الدنيا، وإنا أصبنا ما لا نجد له موضعاً إلا التراب، ولولا أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم نهانا أن ندعو بالموت لدعوت به.
ثم أتيناه مرة أخرى، وهو يبني حائطاً له، فقال: إن المسلم ليؤجر في كل شيء ينفقه، إلا في شيء يجعله في هذا التراب.
[5989، 6066، 6067، 6807، وانظر: 1217].
5349 - حدثنا أبو اليمان: أخبرنا شعيب، عن الزُهري قال: أخبرني أبو عبيد مولى عبد الرحمن بن عوف: أن أبا هريرة قال:

[6098، 6808].
5350 - حدثنا عبد الله بن أبي شيبة: حدثنا أبو أسامة، عن هشام، عن عبَّاد بن عبد الله بن الزبير قال: سمعت عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت:

أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، كان إذا أتى مريضاً أو أتي به، قال: (أذهب الباس رب الناس، اشف وأنت الشافي، لا شفاء إلا شفاؤك، شفاء لا يغادر سقماً).
قال عمرو بن أبي قيس وإبراهيم بن طهمان، عن منصور، عن إبراهيم وأبي الضحى: إذا أتي بالمريض.
وقال جرير، عن منصور، عن أبي الضحى وحده، وقال: إذا أتى مريضاً.
[5411، 5412، 5418].
21 - باب: وضوء العائد للمريض.
5352 - حدثنا محمد بن بشار: حدثنا غُنْدَر: حدثنا شُعبة، عن محمد بن المنكدر قال: سمعت جابر بن عبد الله رضي الله عنهما قال:

[ر: 191].
22 - باب: من دعا برفع الوباء والحمى.
5353 - حدثنا إسماعيل: حدثني مالك، عن هشام بن عروة، عن أبيه، عن عائشة رضي الله عنها أنها قالت:
لما قدم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وُعك أبو بكر وبلال، قالت: فدخلت عليهما، فقلت: يا أبت كيف تجدك؟ ويا بلال كيف تجدك؟ قالت: وكان أبو بكر إذا أخذته الحمى يقول:
كل امرئ مصبَّح في أهله *** والموت أدنى من شراك نعله
وكان بلال إذا أقْلِعَ عنه يرفع عقيرته فيقول:
ألا ليت شعري هل أبيتنَّ ليلة *** بواد وحولي إذخر وجليل
وهل أردن يوماً مياه مَجنَّة *** وهل يبدون لي شامة وطفيل
قال: قالت عائشة: فجئت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأخبرته، فقال: (اللهم حبب إلينا المدينة كحبنا مكة أو أشد، وصحِّحها، وبارك لنا في صاعها ومُدِّها، وانقل حمَّاها فاجعلها بالجُحْفَة).
