Is it the soul or the body, or both, that is punished or blessed in the grave?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is it the soul or the body, or both, that is blessed or punished in the grave?

Answer:
Both, the soul and the body. This is contrary to those who say that the punishment is only for the soul, while the body perishes and nothing remains of it. No, Allah is capable of punishing the body, even if it has become dust. Allah is capable of that. So the punishment or the blessing is for the soul and the body both. Yes.
