Very interesting question. But it is not the way Gurbani believes in. Soul does not unite with God after death but Gurbani believes in Jivan Mukat, merging with God while alive, NOW. These Shabds explains what happens after death.

Everything is created from Primal Void and will merge with Primal Void after death.

When someone dies physical body of five elements merge with the five elements of earth, the breath merges into the air, Jot (Universal energy) blends into the supreme Jot (Universal energy), people lament in misconception for the dead. One can discuss with the enlightened ones that it is the body which dies but soul never dies. No one knows what happens after death. The one who is lamenting will also die one day. Mortal beings are bound by the bonds of doubt and attachment. The union of body and soul is for a short time like a dream. The Creator created this creation. Whoever is born will die one day according to the Command (Hukam) of the God, but the soul does not perish; it is immortal. It is not what you think of the soul that it reincarnates. Nanak says the Guru has dispelled my doubt that the soul does not reincarnate. I am a sacrifice to the one who knows this.
