The answer

The soul of a believer may depart with intensity to expiate their sins and purify them, as happened with the Prophet (peace be upon him) who, upon his death, said: "There is no god but Allah; indeed, death has its agonies." The intensity of death for a believer is either an increase in their good deeds or an expiation for their sins, and it does not indicate a deficiency in rank. What matters is a person's state before their death, their uprightness, their adherence to acts of obedience, and their avoidance of sins. For whoever is like that, good and a noble end are hoped for them.
