Muslims believe that life is split into 2 parts; the earthly life, which is temporary, and the eternal life, which is the hereafter (this is where Allah will grant people heaven or hell according to the deeds that they have done on the earth). Muslims believe in sanctity of life which means that it is a gift from Allah and that we should not take it for granted. Everyone is given free will from Allah which means we can do whatever we want but we are fully subject to the divine decree in matters of life and death. Because life is a gift from Allah, we should do our best to do as many good deeds as we can and try to abstain from the bad acts. Muslims have the consciousness that Allah is wathcing them all the time and that is what motivates them to strive to do good and to strive in His way. Muslims believe that the word 'death' doesn't mean the end of life but a transition. It is a transition from this world to the next. If death meant 'the end of life', then it doesn't make sense that there can be a life after death.

Muslims believe that death of any creature, including mankind, is a fact. They believe that death is not one's end but rather a transition to the second life which is eternal life. They believe that after death one is Judged by God on his beliefs, deeds, and conduct in his first life. Accordingly, one will be either going to the Paradise by God mercy or will be going to Hell.

when someone dies Muslims usually say the phrase " everything is from Allah and returns to Allah" (i'm writing the meaning as it's difficult for me to spell Arabic) and this belief is enough to console someone.

same is said when u've lost something and can't find it.

It is just a transitional stage to the other eternal life where one will be Judged by God and rewarded or punished per one's deeds in first life and per God mercy and forgiveness.
