Is the embrace of the grave for the sinful servant like its embrace for the believing servant?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is the embrace of the grave for the sinful servant like its embrace for the believing, monotheistic servant who commits sins?

The Shaykh : No. If the hadith regarding the embrace of the grave for the believer is authentic, then it is an embrace of mercy and tenderness, like the embrace of a merciful mother holding her son to her chest. As for its embrace of the sinful one, may Allah protect us from that, his grave becomes narrow for him until his ribs differ, until some of them enter into others due to the severity of the tightness. May Allah protect us and you from this.
