Question:
Also, Abu Aishah al-Fadali asks. He says: In some Islamic countries, when a person dies, they say, "Allah has taken back His trust." Is this common phrase permissible?

Answer:
Yes, meaning that the soul which Allah placed in the human being is a trust, a trust belonging to Allah the Exalted in the body of this servant, and Allah has taken back His trust, meaning his soul. Yes.
