The story of the Russian team who claimed they dug deep into the earth and heard the sounds of punishment

Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: A person showed me a tape in which a Russian team was digging in the earth,

Answer:
This story is famous, but it has no basis. A digger does not reach a prisoner in the seventh layer of the earth. He does not reach a prisoner.
And the graves are at the top of the earth. The punishment of the grave is in the graves. And the graves are at the top of the earth. It does not require a digger. This is all superstition.
Yes, the punishment of the grave is true. And some of the dead are punished in their grave. This is mass-transmitted (mutawatir) from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
As for it being said that they confessed to him with the digger that takes... I don't know, from the distances of the earth. Even if he took the earth to be wide. Seven layers. Perhaps the digger wants to investigate it to the end, to the last prisoner of the earth. Yes.
