Summary
No authentic hadith was found stating a specific virtue of dying in Ramadan. A person enters paradise through Allah's mercy and the good deeds done in life, not merely because of the time of death. Dying in Ramadan, on a Friday or in the Sacred Precincts may be regarded as a sign of a good ending (husn al-khatimah), yet Allah's mercy is not limited to any time or place.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
