Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And you say: What is the authenticity of the hadith: “The deceased is indeed punished by the weeping of the living”?

Answer:
No, this was not reported
The deceased is indeed punished by the wailing over himإن الميت ليعذب بما نيح
regarding him, the wailing over him. They said: If he had willed before his death that they should wail over him, he would be punished; because he had willed them to do so. And it was said: Even if he had not willed them to do so, based on the apparent meaning of the hadith. But the meaning of his punishment is that he suffers from this and feels distress in his grave. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
