Question:
Salaam,
I’m from Brazil and my family has many spiritualists Kardecists. In the few conversations about religion, I am always asked about the Islamic view of Reincarnation. And it´s mentioning a dream I had in my youth, they say proves a forceful about it;
In this dream, so real signal, lived in Europe at the time of the Napoleonic invasions. And in battle I ended up taking a shot and was dying slowly. That night, in the summer over here, I woke up with extreme cold, asking for covers. After I related the dream. And since then, I always argue against regarding. I need to be indicated literature on this subject and/or direct explanation as to reincarnation in the Islamic vision.
Answer:
As-salamu `alaykum,
There is no mention of reincarnation in traditional Islamic literature. The Islamic view is in line with the other monotheistic Abrahamic religions, namely Judaism and Christianity. We are born, we live our lives, we die, we are resurrected and judged and then go to paradise or hell based on our actions during our life.
And Allah and His Prophet know best.
