General view and impression of death by philosophers

Death is the reality of life and every living thing have to taste the death. People can deny the God and no one can deny the death. In this post we will study different views of philosophers on death. 

1. The Epicureans: The followers of the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus. Death is nothing to Epicureans. According to them, we fear death because of the belief that the death is painful and that the soul may have to suffer in an afterlife, but both beliefs are not true. Death is not painful it is a painless loss of the consciousness it is just like the falling asleep and therefore nothing to be feared. 
   
   
2. The Stoics: Seneca(4BCE-65CE), a Roman follower of Stoicism said that there is no need to fear death. To overcome this fear, we should think of it in a proper manner. Death reminds us that we are part of the nature and we must accept this truth.
    
3. Prophet Muhammad: Islamic prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)(570-632 CE) taught that death is a natural part of life, urging believers to prepare for the afterlife through righteous deeds and adherence to moral principles. He emphasized hope in God's mercy, encouraging remembrance of death as a means of spiritual reflection and motivation for leading a virtuous life. 
   
   
4. Spinoza: A Dutch philosopher Benedict de Spinoza(1632-1677), wrote, a fearful an thinks of nothing less than of death, and his wisdom is not a meditation upon death but upon life.
