I went to the maternity hospital for the birth of my child and I was ready for it mentally and physically. It was a natural process of birth. The Doctor dealt with the extent of pain by gauging how responsive I was to it. The nurses were called and I gave birth to a baby. The placenta did not come out. The doctor put pressure on the abdomen to help.Someone said, 'You must summon the surgeon to remove the placenta,' and I saw the doctor had arrived. Then I started feeling that the ceiling of the room is coming on, and I started rising from the Earth towards the ceiling and I entered the tunnel. The spiral brings me to the quickly to the top. I imagine my husband and give him my latest recommendations about the newborn child and I tell him, 'I die now, children must receive good care. Take one to my grandmother.' I echo the certificates and attest that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God over and over again. The time I spent in the tunnel spiral went smoothly and quickly and pleased His Excellency. The feeling was indescribable. Then they brought me back to consciousness and I found myself still alive. I felt grief because I lost that indescribable feeling.
