#4006 It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“The
dead
person ends up in his grave, then the righteous man is made to
sit up
in his grave with no fear or panic. Then it is said to him:
‘What
religion did you follow?’ He said: ‘I was in Islam.’ It is said
to him: ‘Who is this man?’ He says: ‘Muhammad the Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ). He brought us clear signs from Allah and we believed
him.’ It
is said to him: ‘Have you seen Allah?’ He says: ‘No
one is able to see
Allah.’ Then a window to Hell is opened for him,
and he sees it, parts
of it destroying others. Then it is said to
him: ‘Look at what Allah
has saved you from.’ Then a window to
Paradise is opened to him, and
he looks at its beauty and what is in
it. It is said to him: ‘This is
your place.’ And it is said to
him: ‘You had certain faith and you
died in that state, and in that
state you will be resurrected if Allah
wills.’ And the evil man is
made to sit up in his grave with fear and
panic. It is said to him:
‘What religion did you follow?’ He says: ‘I
do not know.’ It
is said to him: ‘Who is this man?’ He says: ‘I heard
the people
saying something and I said it too.’ Then a window to
Paradise is
opened to him, and he looks at its beauty and what is in
it. It is
said to him: ‘Look at what Allah has diverted away from
you.’
Then a window to Hell is opened for him, and he sees it, parts
of it
destroying others, and it is said to him: ‘This is your place.
You
were doubtful; in this state you died and in this state you will
be
resurrected, if Allah wills.’”
