The Bliss of Paradise in the Barzakh and After the Reckoning
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Will a person be in the bliss of Firdaws while in the stage of the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection), or will the happy life and Paradise be after the Reckoning on the Day of Resurrection?
Answer:
Entering Paradise is after the Resurrection, after the Reckoning and the weighing of deeds. So Paradise or Hellfire will be after the deeds of the Day of Resurrection and its terrors. As for the deceased, he will be given some of the bliss of Paradise while in his grave, or some of the punishment of Hellfire while in his grave.
A door to Paradise will be opened for him, and he will receive from its spirit, its fragrance, and its pleasantness while in his grave. So the grave will be a garden from the gardens of Paradise. Or a door to Hellfire will be opened for him, and it will be constricted for him in his grave until his ribs are crushed. As for the believer, his grave will be spacious for him to the extent of his sight. So the grave is either a garden from the gardens of Paradise, or a pit from the pits of Hellfire. But the abode of final settlement is the Hereafter, and the Hereafter is the abode of final settlement in Paradise or in Hellfire, may Allah protect us from it. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
