Do Munkar and Nakir come to the believer, the disbeliever, and the hypocrite?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. We move on to the message from the questioner, H-H from Riyadh. He says: Honorable Shaykh, it is said that when the disbeliever is placed in his grave and Munkar and Nakir come to him, they come in a terrifying and frightening form. Does the believer see Munkar and Nakir in the same form that the disbeliever sees them?

Answer:
It is not stated that Munkar and Nakir come to the disbeliever; rather, it is the hypocrite who claims Islam in this world. When Munkar and Nakir come to him, he is unable to answer when they question him. The believer sees Munkar and Nakir, and the hypocrite sees them when they come to test him in the grave.
