Question:
He asks: Is it established that the deceased is punished for the weeping of his family over him?
Answer:
This is mentioned in the authentic collections regarding wailing, not the weeping of the family. Weeping is something that is unavoidable. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wept, but he is punished for the wailing of his family over him. This is authentic in the hadith. Yes. Some scholars held that this applies if he was pleased with it before he died, or if he had bequeathed it. If he had bequeathed it, he is punished for it. But if he was not pleased with it and did not bequeath it, he is not punished. However, the hadith is general. The hadith is general. Yes.
