Does the deceased receive blessings or punishment, and do the angels come to him if he remains in the morgue and is not buried?

Question:
The correspondent M.M. Al-Rashidi asks: If a person dies and remains in the morgue for a day or two without being buried, do the angels come to him or not? Does he know whether he is among those who are blessed or those who are punished? And does he know about the happiness or misery of his children in this world?

Answer:
As for the angels coming to him, we do not know, and Allah knows best. As for his remaining in the morgue for a day or two and whether he is blessed or punished, yes. When a person dies, he enters the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection). However, his soul departs while he is in the barzakh. He is blessed or punished whether he is in the grave or outside the grave. If he is among the people of good, he is given from the blessings; if he is among the people of evil, he is given from the punishment, even if he has not been buried. Yes.
