The People of the Graves Hearing Those Around Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: As for the people of the graves, do they hear those around them, whether the living or the dead?

Answer:
Matters concerning the graves are known only to Allah, and nothing is said about them except on the basis of evidence. The dead in their graves hear the salam when a Muslim offers it to them, and they respond to him. Their powers are brought to them when Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) wills it, and then they hear. Yes.
