Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Does a believer experience fear after death until he enters Paradise? Does a believer experience fear after death until he enters Paradise?

Answer:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) said:
Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah " and then remained on a right course - the angels will descend upon themإِنَّ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقَامُوا تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ
[Fussilat 41:30]
meaning at the time of death that
Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised.أَلَّا تَخَافُوا وَلَا تَحْزَنُوا وَأَبْشِرُوا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي كُنتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ
[Fussilat 41:30]
so these are
there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
[Al-Ahqaf 46:13]
but it is possible that the sinner who has sins and transgressions fears, especially at the scales, when the books are handed out, and when passing over the Sirat; a person fears. Yes. You, Professor. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
