The Ruling on Citing Stories of the Terrors of the Grave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is it permissible to cite such stories in sermons?

A: It is better to leave them out, because their authenticity is not known. What came in the hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is sufficient. The important thing is to urge people to obedience and warn them from sins, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Companions did.
As for the stories that may or may not be authentic, they are to be left out.
