Life and death

“When one of you dies do not tarry, but make haste and take him to his grave, and let someone read at his head the opening of Surah Baqarah, and at his feet its closure when he lies in the grave.” (Tabarani)

Verily, the dead are punished in their graves, and even the animals hear their screaming. (tabarani)

“This Ummah will be tried in its grave. If it were not for the fear that you might not bury your dead, I would pray to Allah to make you hear what I hear.” [Saheeh Muslim]

….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)

….indeed, these graves engulf their dwellers with darkness; and verily Allah illuminates them (for the believers) because of my salah (supplication) for them.(muslim)

Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him; and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him. On hearing this, ‘A’ishah(ra)exclaimed,”But we do hate death!The Prophet(saws)responded: This is not what it means! When death comes to a believer, he is given the tidings of Allah’s acceptance and bounties. Nothing is then dearer to him than what is ahead: he loves to meet Allah; and Allah loves to meet him. But when death comes to a disbeliever, he is given the tidings of Allah’s torture and punishment. Nothing is then more hateful to him than what is ahead: he hates to meet Allah; and Allah hates to meet him.(muslim)

Nabi Muhammad (s) saw a person sitting on a qabr and told him: “Do not harm the person in the qabr and he will not harm you.” (Ibn Hanbal, Hakim and Tabarani)

La ilaha illallah ,Verily death comes with agonies(pain).(ahmed)

A believer praises Allah as his soul leaves from between his two sides.(ahmed)

Whoever seeks forgiveness for the believing men and women, Allah records for him a good deed for every believing man and woman.(tabarani)

“O Allah! Reward me in my calamity and replace my loss with a better one. [Sahih Muslim]

“Whoever visits his parents’ graves or visits one of their graves every Friday, then he will be forgiven and will be written as being one of the pious” (Mishkat page 154).

‘The status of the deceased is raised [during their time in the grave], and the deceased ask Allah why this has happened. Allah replies,’Your son has prayed for your forgiveness'” (al-Bukhari,musnad e ahmed)

Reported S. Jaber (ra)-  We came out with the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to Saa’d bin Muaz when he expired. When the Holy Prophet performed his funeral prayer, and he was buried in his grave and the earth was levelled upon him, the Holy Prophet read “Tasbeeh” and we also recited “Tasbeeh” for a long time. Then he recited “Takbeer”, so we too recited “Takbeer”. It was asked “;O the Messenger of Allah! Why have you recited “Tasbeeh” and “Takbeer” He said, “The grave became too narrow for this pious man till Allah made it spacious because of it (the recitation).” (Ahmed, Mishkaat)

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)
