Quran Says :
It is He Who gives
life, and causes death, and to Him you (all) shall return. (Surat Yunus
10:56). Death is the termination of all biological functions that sustain a
living organism. Bodies of living organisms begin to decompose shortly
after death.
Biologists now see
physiological death as a process, more than an event; conditions once
considered indicative of death are now reversible.
Where in the
process a biologist draws a dividing line between life and death depends on
factors beyond the presence or absence of vital signs.
In general,
clinical death is neither necessary nor sufficient for a determination of legal
death. Doctors can legally pronounce a person dead without clinical death
occurring even if this patient has working heart and lungs, yet suffers
a brain death.
