Is the reward and punishment of the grave for the soul only, or for the soul and the body?

Question:
One of the female listeners is asking, and she indicated her name with the letters H. L. Q. She has a question; she apologized at the beginning and says: "Forgive me, the question may be strange, but I want to understand. If the deceased is punished in his grave, how is he punished? By his body or by his soul? And if he is punished by his body, how are those who are burned or those who are killed by an explosion punished?"

Answer:
It is obligatory for the Muslim to believe what the authentic evidence indicates, namely that the deceased is punished in his grave or given pleasure. The Muslim must hold this belief because of the validity and mass transmission of the hadiths and evidence from the Book and the Sunnah regarding this. Thus, the punishment of the grave or its pleasure is a reality, and this is the belief of the people of the Sunnah and the community.
As for the manner of the punishment, its reference is to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He); no one knows it except Allah. However, it appears, and Allah knows best, that the punishment befalls the soul and the body. In fact, the truth is that it befalls the soul and the body. The body is punished even if it turns into good soil. It is punished, along with the soul, based on the apparent evidence. This is the belief of the people of the Sunnah and the community. Even if he is burned or killed by an explosion or fire, he receives from the punishment of the grave or its pleasure what he receives. Even if birds or wild beasts eat him, or if he is crucified on a wooden pole and not buried until he disintegrates and perishes, the punishment of the grave reaches him. Good. Allah is able to do everything. Yes. May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
