Is it true that one who dies on Friday or its night will not be questioned in the grave, or does a person’s death on Friday have any special merit?

Question:
The questioner asks: Is it true that one who dies on Friday, or its night, will not be questioned in the grave? Or does a person’s death on Friday have any special merit or lesson? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
I am not aware of any evidence regarding the virtue of dying on Friday, or any specific evidence for that. However, since Friday is the best of the days of the week, the best day on which the sun has risen, and the master of the days of the week, it is hoped that there is a virtue for the one who dies on this day; because it is a noble day and a great day. It is hoped that the death of a Muslim on this day brings reward and merit for him.
