Question:
Tell us about the deceased when he dies and remains: does he see any of his relatives who have passed away from among the righteous?

Answer:
Yes, Allah knows best. This is among the matters of the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection), and the deceased meets the dead.
He meets the dead, gets acquainted with them, and gathers with them, as the evidence indicates. They ask him about so-and-so, and he tells them about those who have died and about the conditions of the living whom they ask about. In any case, these are among the matters of the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection) in which it is not permissible to speak except with evidence, because they are from the knowledge of the unseen, which no one knows except Allah.
He may remember someone, and some of the deeds of the living may distress him. All of these are among the matters in which no one should speak except according to the evidence, because they are from the matters of the unseen.
