Life after death

Abu Hurayrah(ra)reported that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said:Verily, when death descends upon a believer, and he witnesses things (implying his forthcoming rewards),he wishes that his soul would depart (quickly), and Allah loves to meet him. His soul is taken up to the heaven. The souls of the believers come to him and inquire from him about their acquaintances of the dwellers of the earth. They are pleased when he says, “I left such and such in the dunyd (the first life).” And when he says, “Such and such had died,” they say (disappointedly), “But he was not brought to us.”A believer is made to sit in his grave, and is asked, “Who is your lord?” He replies, “My lord is Allah.” He is asked, “Who is your prophet?” He replies, “My prophet is Muhammad (ﷺ).” He is asked, “What is your religion?” He says, “My religion is Islam.” A door is then opened from his grave (to Jannah), and he is told, “Look at you future) abode.” He is then left in the grave, and (the time passes) as if it is but a nap. And when death descends upon an enemy of Allah, and he witnesses things (implying his imminent punishment), he wishes that his soul would never depart, and Allah hates to meet him. When he is made to sit in his grave, he is asked, “Who is your lord?” He replies, “I do not know.” He is told, “May you never know!” A door is then opened from his grave to Hell, and he is hit a blow that can be heard by every creature except the human beings and the jinns. And he is told, “Go to sleep like a bitten person.” And his grave is made tight on him.Abu Hurayrah was asked, “What is a bitten person?” He replied, “One who is bitten by creatures and snakes.” ‘ (al-bazzar)

Anas (ra)reported that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said: Verily, when a believer is placed in his grave, an angel comes to him and asks him, “What did you worship?” If Allah guides him, he replies, “I worshipped Allah.” Then he asks him, “What did you say about this man (Muhammad)?” He answers, “He is Allah’s ‘abd and Messenger.” He is not questioned about anything else after this. He is taken to a house in the Fire, and is told, “This would have been your house in the Fire; but Allah protected you and had mercy upon you; thus He substituted it for you with a house in Jannah” He says, “Allow me to go give this good news to my family.” But he is told, “Be tranquil.” When a disbeliever is put into his grave, an angel comes to him, rebukes him, and asks him, “What did you worship?” He replies, “I do not know.” He is told, “You did not know; nor did you recite (Quran)” He is then asked, “What did you say about this man?” He replies, “I said what the people said.” He (the angel) then hits him with an iron hammer between his ears; and he emits a shriek which is heard by all creatures except the human beings and jinns.(abu dawood)

Anas(ra)reported that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said:Verily, after a abd is placed in his grave, and his companions walk away from him, so that he can hear the echo of their footsteps, two angels come to him. They make him sit, and ask him, “What did you saying about this man (Muhammad)?” A believer replies, “I bear witness that he is Allah’s abd and Messenger.” He is then told, “Look at your place in the Fire; Allah has substituted it for you with a place in Jannah” Thus he views both of them. His grave is then expanded for him to seventy cubits; and it is filled with greenery until the Day of Resurrection. As for a disbeliever or a hypocrite, he replies, “I do not know. I said what the people said.” He is then told, “You did not know; nor did you recite {Quran)” He is then hit one blow between his ears with an iron hammer; and he emits a shriek which is heard by all creatures near him except jinns and human beings. His grave contracts on him until his ribs break.(muslim)

Ibn ‘Abbas(ﷺ)said that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said:If anyone were to escape from the squeeze of the grave, it would be Sad Bin Mu ath; however,he was squeezed once and then released. (tabarani)

Narrated from al-Bara’ ibn ‘Aazib (ra):The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “When the believing slave is about to depart this world and enter the Hereafter, there come down to him from Heaven angels with white faces like the sun, and they sit around him as far as the eye can see. They bring with them shrouds from Paradise and perfumes from Paradise…” until he said, describing the state of the Believer in the grave: “Then a voice calls out from Heaven, ‘My slave has spoken the truth, so prepare for him a bed from Paradise and clothe him from Paradise, and open for him a gate to Paradise.’ Then there comes to him some of its fragrance, and his grave is made wide, as far as he can see. Then there comes to him a man with a handsome face and handsome clothes, and a good fragrance, who says, ‘Receive the glad tidings that will bring you joy this day.’ He says, ‘Who are you? Your face is a face which brings glad tidings.’ He says, ‘I am your righteous deeds.’ He says, ‘O Lord, hasten the Hour so that I may return to my family and my wealth.’” (Ahmad)

Haani’ the freed slave of ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affaan (ra) said:When ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affaan stood by a grave he would weep until his beard became wet. It was said to him, “You remember Paradise and Hell and you do not weep, but you weep because of this?” He said, “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, ‘The grave is the first of the stages of the Hereafter; whoever is saved from it, whatever comes afterwards will be easier for him, but if he is not saved from it, what comes afterwards will be worse for him.’” And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘I have never seen any scene, but the grave is more frightening than it.’ (Tirmidhi)

Ibn ‘Umar(ra) said that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said:When one of you dies, he is shown his (future) position morning and evening. If he is from the people of Jannah, (he is shown his place) in Jannah, and if he is from the people of the Fire, (he is shown his place) in the Fire; and each is told, “This will be your place when Allah raises you on the Day of Resurrection.” (bukhari)

Aws Bin Aws(ra)narrated that Allah’s Messenger(ﷺ)said:Indeed, among the best of all of your days is the day of Jumuah (Friday). On such a day, Adam was created, he died, on it the blow (of the Sur or trumpet of the Doom’s Hour) will be sounded, and on it is the great shock (when all those on earth will die following the blow of the Sur); so say in plenty your salah upon me on Friday, for indeed your salah will be presented to me. Indeed, Allah has prohibited the earth from eating up the bodies of prophets.(abu dawood)

When I want to talk to Allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
