The Description of the Grave’s Embrace of the Believing Servant and the Wicked One
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is the embrace of the grave for the sinful servant like its embrace for the believing, monotheistic servant who commits sins?The Shaykh: No.
The embrace of the grave for the believer, if the hadith regarding it is authentic, is an embrace of mercy and tenderness, like the embrace of a merciful mother holding her son to her chest. As for the embrace of the grave for the wicked one, may Allah protect us from it, his grave becomes narrow for him until his ribs differ,Meaning: until some of them enter into others due to the severity of the tightness. May Allah protect us and you from this.
