Muslims believe in souls because they believe that in the after live your soul will either go to heaven or hell.
ANSWER 2:
All of the Abrahamic religions believe in the soul. Scriptures of the Baha'i Faith even teach that it is the immortal soul, and not the mortal body, that is our reality.

A) According to The Bible, once we die, we are just that -- dead. We do not exist any more. Genesis 3:19 states: 'From dust we come; to dust we return.' Dust does not have 'life'. Jehovah God did not give mankind an 'immortal soul'. (Ezekiel 20:4)
B) But the Bible also teaches about a 'resurection'; "on the last day". (John 11:24) Therefore in the meantime, there is no life after death - - unless you are 're-created'; or 'resurected' from death, 'on the last day' (whenever that is). Then of course you would 'have life' again.

(Ecclesiastes 9:5) For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten.
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) All that your hand finds to do, do with your very power, for there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in She′ol, the place to which you are going.
(Psalm 146:4) His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; In that day his thoughts do perish.

Does life terminate with death?
One view Yes, life terminates at death. Religions can give a sense of comfort, by suggesting that there is another life after death, but there is no evidence for these claims. Another view People of faith believe that "life" is not restricted to the gross body. Life in this view is equated with consciousness, which many believe survives bodily death.
Why might people not believe in life after death?
There are lots of reasons for this. Some people do not want to believe in life after death, especially when they are severely depressed. These people want to believe that suicide would end their suffering, and that they do not have to continue to struggle. Others believe that worrying about the future is a waste of time, and that every day should be lived only as it comes - so they don't consider the concept. They're is also no evidence that there is life after death and so some people might not want to believe since they have no proof.Also, acknowledging life after death is usually associated with a religion, and people who have been raised void of religious influence and are not of faith, may have trouble believing in something beyond the grave. Some people believe only in what they have direct evidence of, or have witnessed; and evidence of life after death can only be found when it is too late to come back and tell the world.Answer:Actually, there is plenty of non-religious evidence for life after death. See, for example, the roseandlotus website and follow the links. But people are afraid to believe it, in case they are then pressured into following a religion that they have already developed a distaste for, and so they developed the myth that belief in life after death is only for the weak-minded. But that is only a myth, and there is no evidence at all, apart from wishful thinking, for the proposition that there is nolife after death.Answer:Belief in existence after death is the tradition of all mankind. All ancient societies worldwide without exception shared this tradition.In very recent generations, the abandonment of tradition in general has been taking place and that is why things have gotten so much worse, including the fact that many people no longer are aware of God or the afterlife.
What are the two lives and the two deaths?
1. First death : when you has not been created yet. 2. First Life : You are alive now in this life. 3. Second death : when you pass away. 4. Second Life : The hereafter eternal life. .. . The above is incorrect, because "death" requires a passes from life to lack of life. . . 1. First life: the naturally born life given on Earth to all existing people 2. First death: all people are actually born spiritually dead because of Adam's sin. Remember God said, "this DAY you shall surely die"...Adam didn't die physically, but spiritually. 3. Second Death: the PHYSICAL death of the body, leading to the afterlife (souls are eternal...you will never cease to exist) 4. Second Life: given to those who accept the gift of spiritual life from Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and believe that he risen from the dead physically (just as those who are saved are "risen" from the dead spiritually). This second life is attainable on Earth and all who believe on the name of Jesus of Christ are born again.
