Question:
The trial of life and the trial of death; many of the brothers ask about this, Your Eminence the Shaykh.
Answer:
In this world and the Hereafter. The trial in this world, and the trial for you in the grave. May Allah grant us safety. One may be tried in this world with his wealth, or with zina (unlawful sexual intercourse), or with khamr (intoxicants), or with something else. And the trial of death is the punishment that befalls the sinner in the grave. May Allah grant us safety. And the inability to be certain; one is asked and says, "Ha, ha, I do not know." May Allah grant us safety. Hmm.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
