No matter what the Hui people call death, they avoid saying the word "death". This has a lot to do with the influence of Islam. Because Islam regards death as a person's final and inevitable destination, which is understood as the disappearance of "Kalaib" (body) and the sublimation of "Lohan" (spirit), and it is the return of life to the truth, not the end of life. So over time, a habit has been formed among Hui people to avoid saying "death".

Before dying, Hui people generally pay attention to these aspects:
First of all, please ask the imam to read the "confession book" to the patient, pray for God to forgive the patient's sins, and ask the patient to repent and reflect on himself.
The second is "calling", that is, if there is a quarrel, contradiction or even hatred between neighbors, friends and patients who are usually in contact, then we should take the initiative to say "eyes" to patients and "call" to explain our original feelings, eliminate misunderstandings and barriers, forgive each other and end the past happily.
Third, when you are critically ill, you should be quiet around you, don't cry, don't shout, don't laugh, don't make trouble, shield all kinds of noises, and even stop walking. No one can live alone until the patient dies except the patient's own flesh and blood, the imam waiting beside the patient, or someone who is respected among the masses and understands Islamic rules.
