The Ruling on the Hearing of the Inhabitants of the Graves by Those Who Greet Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the correct view regarding the hearing of the inhabitants of the graves, especially those who are greeted and spoken to?
Answer:
They hear, but it is a hearing of the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection); I do not think it is the same as their hearing in this world. Is it like their hearing in this world? It is merely a barzakh hearing, and Allah knows best how it is. That is why it is said that they hear the striking of their sandals; this is a barzakh hearing, or it is like their hearing while they are still alive in this world. Yes.
