Assalamu Alaikum

I think the comments are appropriate. Unfortunately, Dr. Hatout though a 
renowned Muslim scholar could not do the job properly. He had the best 
opportunity to explain the entire philosophy of "accountability in Akhirah" 
andthat it stemsfrom the concept of "Amanah" on which hinges the 
fate of a man or woman after death. 

The debate is tocontinue further on some other date. I think brothers 
like respected Imam Hamza Yusuf should contact CNN on his own accord and 
represent Muslim Community in this lively discussion where both the Jews and 
Christianswere confused and had no sense of direction/

Brothers from CAIR or MPACcan arrange it and facilitate the 
participation of Imam Hamza Yusuf in the forthcoming debate.

Separately, I am forwarding the entire proceedings of the previous debate 
to Br. Hamza andhopehe will accept this assignment in all humility. 
Allah (SWT) will help him.

Assalamu alaikum,

Unfortunately, they did not choose a knowledgeable Muslim to discuss what happens during and after death. This was a great opportunity to tell people what happens on the death bed.

The Prophet sallallahu alayhe wa salam told us exactly what happens to a good and bad soul.
As a good sould is about to leave the world, it is greeted by good-looking angels with a shroud and hanout from heaven. They give him glad tidings and his sould comes out gently. He is taken up and the gates of skies open and in each level the angels ask, "Who is this sweet smelling soul? and they will say it is so and so the son of so and so.Then he will be shown his place in heaven, and his place in hellfire had he chosen kufr and disobedience. Then his sould is brought back to his body and his grave is made nice and wide for him.
The opposite happens to the disbeliever.
[This is a brief summary of the hadith]. If you want the whole thing let me know and I will post it.

The conditions of going to heaven isIslam: Saying La Illaha Illa Allah.
