Q: What is the benefit if a person dies on specific days such as Ramadan, Thursday, or Friday? We often hear that the deceased died on a good day. Is there anything in Sunnat or Shariat regarding this?
Answer: There are blessed days, and Allah (SWT) may reward the deceased Muslim with His mercy.
The Messenger of Allah said: "No Muslim dies on the day of Friday, nor the night of Friday, except that Allah protects him from the trials of the grave." (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1074)
When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of heaven are opened, and the gates of hell are closed, and the devils are chained. (Sahih al-Bukhari 1899)
Allah (SWT) knows best.
