Can some people see some of the sinners being punished in their graves?

The questioner : All right, Shaykh, do some of the sinners see only what is bad?

But everything remains, I mean, subject to the knowledge of the narration; is the narration authentic or not? Is the one who reports it truthful or joking? All of this can be said. As for the principle, it is established.
