Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a text stating that the prophets are alive in their graves?
Answer:
As far as I know, and as far as I have read, no text has been transmitted. However, by analogy, if the martyrs are alive by the explicit text of the Qur'an, then the prophets (peace and blessings be upon them) are more deserving of that than they are. The prophets (peace and blessings be upon them) are more deserving of that than they are. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Ibn Majah 1637Da’if (Darussalam) Yes.

إن الله حرم على الأرض أن تأكل أجسام أو أجساد الأنبياء.
