Al-Bara bin Azib reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: When a Muslim is questioned in the grave he testifies that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger. That is verified by Allah’s words: “Allah establishes those who believe with the word that stands firm. ”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا شُعْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ "إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ إِذَا سُئِلَ فِي الْقَبْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَشَهِدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ:‏‏‏‏ يُثَبِّتُ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِالْقَوْلِ الثَّابِتِ سورة إبراهيم آية 27".

Anas bin Malik said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the garden of the palm trees of Banu al-Najjar. He heard a voice and was terrified. He asked: Who are the people buried in these graves? The people replied: Messenger of Allah! These are some people who died in the pre-Islamic times. He said: Seek refuge in Allah from the punishment of the fire, and the trail of Antichrist. They asked: Why is it that, Messenger of Allah? He said: When a man is placed in his grave, an angel comes to him and says to him: Whom did you worship? Allah then guides him and he says: I worshiped Allah. He is then asked: What was your opinion of this man? He replies: He is Allah’s servant and His Messenger. He will not then be asked about anything else. He will then be taken to his abode in Hell and will be told: This was your abode in Hell, but Allah protected you and had mercy on you substituted for you an abode in Paradise for it. He will say: Leave me so that I may go and give glad tidings to my family. He will be told: Dwell. When an infidel is placed in his grave, an angel comes to him, reprimands him and asks him: Whom did you worship? He replies: I do not know. He will be told: You neither knew nor did you follow (the believers). He is then asked: What was your opinion on this man? He replies: I held the opinion that the other people held. He will then give him a blow between his ears with an iron hammer and will utter a shout which will be heard by all the creatures (near him) with the exception of men and jinn.

The tradition mentioned above has also transmitted by Abd al-Wahhab through a different chain of narrators in a similar manner. This version has: When a man is placed in his grave and his friends leaves him, he hears the beat of his sandals. Then two angles come and speak to him. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition nearly similar to the previous one. It goes: As for the infidel and hypocrite they say to them. This version adds the word “hypocrite”. And he said: those who are near him will hear (his shout) with the exception of men and jinn.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏نَحْوَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَتَوَلَّى عَنْهُ أَصْحَابُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّهُ لَيَسْمَعُ قَرْعَ نِعَالِهِمْ فَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكَانِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ فَذَكَرَ قَرِيبًا مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْأَوَّلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ فِيهِ:‏‏‏‏ وَأَمَّا الْكَافِرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْمُنَافِقُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَيَقُولانِ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ زَادَ الْمُنَافِقَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَسْمَعُهَا مَنْ وَلِيَهُ غَيْرُ الثَّقَلَيْنِ.

Narrated Al-Bara ibn Azib: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ accompanying the bier of a man of the Ansar. When we reached his grave, it was not yet dug. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and we also sat down around him as if birds were over our heads. He had in his hand a stick with which he was scratching the ground. He then raised his head and said: Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment in the grave. He said it twice or thrice. The version of Jabir adds here: He hears the beat of their sandals when they go back, and at that moment he is asked: O so and so! Who is your Lord, what is your religion, and who is your Prophet? Hannad's version says: Two angels will come to him, make him sit up and ask him: Who is your Lord? He will reply: My Lord is Allah. They will ask him: What is your religion? He will reply: My religion is Islam. They will ask him: What is your opinion about the man who was sent on a mission among you? He will reply: He is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They will ask: Who made you aware of this? He will reply: I read Allah's Book, believed in it, and considered it true; which is verified by Allah's words: "Allah's Book, believed in it, and considered it true, which is verified by Allah's words: "Allah establishes those who believe with the word that stands firm in this world and the next. " The agreed version reads: Then a crier will call from Heaven: My servant has spoken the truth, so spread a bed for him from Paradise, clothe him from Paradise, and open a door for him into Paradise. So some of its air and perfume will come to him, and a space will be made for him as far as the eye can see. He also mentioned the death of the infidel, saying: His spirit will be restored to his body, two angels will come to him, make him sit up and ask him: Who is your Lord? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. They will ask him: What is your religion? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. They will ask: Who was the man who was sent on a mission among you? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. Then a crier will call from Heaven: He has lied, so spread a bed for him from Hell, clothe him from Hell, and open for him a door into Hell. Then some of its heat and pestilential wind will come to him, and his grave will be compressed, so that his ribs will be crushed together. Jabir's version adds: One who is blind and dumb will then be placed in charge of him, having a sledge-hammer such that if a mountain were struck with it, it would become dust. He will give him a blow with it which will be heard by everything between the east and the west except by men and jinn, and he will become dust. Then his spirit will be restored to him.

Aishah said that she thought of Hell and wept. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked her: What makes you weep ? She replied: I thought of Hell and wept. Will you remember your family on the 4th Day of resurrection ? the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There are three places where no one will remember anyone: at the scale until one knows whether his weight is light or heavy; at (the examination of) the book when one is commanded: Take and read Allah’s record, until he knows whether his book will be put into his right hand, or into his left hand, or behind his back ; and the path when it is placed across JAHANNAM.

Narrated Abu Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah: I heard the Prophet ﷺ say: There has been no Prophet after Noah who has not warned his people about the antichrist (Dajjal), and I warn you of him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ described him to us, saying: Perhaps some who have seen me and heard my words will live till his time. The people asked: Messenger of Allah! what will be the condition of our hearts on that day? Like what we are today? He replied: Or better.

Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood among the people and praised Allah in a way which is worthy of him, and mentioned the Antichrist (Dajjal), saying: I warn you of him, and there has been no prophet who has not warned his people about him, and Noah also warned his people about him. But I tell you about him a word which no Prophet had told his people: you should know that he will be blind in one eye, and Allah is not blind is one eye.

Narrated Abu Dharr: The Prophet ﷺ said: He who separates from the community within a span takes off the noose of Islam from his neck.

Abu Dharr reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: How will you deal with the rulers (imams) who appropriate to themselves this booty? I said: I swear by him who sent you with the truth that at that time I shall put my sword on my shoulder and smite with it till I meet you, or I join you. He said: shall I not guide you to something better than that? You must show endurance till you meet me.

Umm Salamah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ is reported to have said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You will have commanders some of whom you will approve and some of whom you will disapprove. He who expresses disapproval with his tongue (Abu Dawud said: This is Hisham’s version) is guiltless; and he who feels disapproval in his heart, is safe, but he who is pleased and follows them. He was asked; shall we not kill them, Messenger of Allah? Abu Dawud’s version has: Shall we not fight with them? He replied: No, so long as they pray.
