Here is the beginning of a modeled answer completed by Edward C.
‘Religious believers have to believe in life after death.’ Do you agree? (E) 8 Marks!
Some Christians, such as Roman Catholic would agree that you must believe in the afterlife. This is shown through the principles of Heaven and Hell. St Paul stated, ‘On Earth it is a physical body, but in Heaven it will be a spiritual body.’ This demonstrates that your body is simply a shell for your soul, and when you die; your soul will live on, in the afterlife. There is a special prayer called Requiem Mass which are said for the dead persons soul.
This is similar to some Muslims who would also agree that afterlife is an important belief in Islam. As they too believe in heaven and hell. On their deathbed Muslims should ask for forgiveness from Allah and also declare their faith. This is known as shahaadah. Muslims believe that the soul will be placed in Barzakh, which is where the soul waits for the day of Judgement, therefore suggesting there must be an afterlife. The Arabic term for this is akhirah.
