Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, someone might say: We open the grave after the burial of the deceased, and we do not see what happens to him of bliss or punishment, so what is the response to this doubt?
Answer:
The response to it is clear: You are in this world, and he is in the Hereafter. The deceased is in the Hereafter, and you are in this world, and the matters of the Hereafter are not measured by the matters of this world. So the punishment of the grave is among the matters of the Hereafter and among the knowledge of the unseen, which no one knows except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
