Question:
How do you reconcile the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
The believer’s soul is a bird that eats from the trees of Paradiseنسمة المؤمن طائر يعلق في شجر الجنة
Sunan Ibn Majah 4271Da’if (Darussalam)
, with the statement that bliss occurs in the grave?

Answer:
There is no objection to that. The human soul enjoys bliss in its grave and also enjoys bliss in the highest heaven, because the soul has the characteristic that it comes to the deceased while he is in his grave and ascends to the sky. The soul of the believer, the soul of the believer has a connection to his body while he is in the grave, and it is in the highest heaven, roaming among the trees of Paradise and eating from their fruit. Yes.
