What recitations are recommended for the dying person?

Primary text

When death approaches, specific Surahs should be recited to alleviate the suffering of the dying person. Ahmad stated that Surah Ya-Sin should be read, and the recitation of Al-Fatiha is also commanded. Reciting Surah Ya-Sin is particularly recommended when death is severe, as it lightens the process of dying, based on the experience of Ghudayf ibn Harith.
