The Authenticity of the Hadith About the Grave Speaking to the Dead Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih. The third question is from our brother Abdullah from Riyadh. He asks: What is the authenticity of this statement? Is it a hadith? It is said that when the dead person is buried, he tries to get up but cannot, so he says, "What is this?" Then the grave responds to him, saying, "I am the grave. You have no choice but patience."
Answer:
This is not authentic. This is a statement that is not relied upon; it is merely from the sayings of people. I do not know it as a hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
