When Allah (SWT) said to Zachariah, we named your son Yahya, this name was chose by Allah, and Yahya in Arabic means to live forever, so if Allah named him Yahya, he shouldn't be dead? so the only way that Yahya will die if he got killed, and indeed he was killed, so in Islam if a beleiver was killed in the sake of Allah, he is still alive according to the verse in Chapter 3: Aal-Imraan, verse:169 'And never think of those who have been killed in the casue of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.' 'وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَمْوَاتًا ۚ بَلْ أَحْيَاءٌ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ يُرْزَقُونَ'
