What is the evidence for the punishment of the grave from the Noble Qur'an?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there anything in the Noble Qur'an that indicates, by way of interpretation, the punishment of the grave, or is its evidence in the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
The Book contains what indicates this; for Allah the Exalted says regarding the family of Pharaoh:
The Fire, they are exposed to it morning and evening.النَّارُ يُعْرَضُونَ عَلَيْهَا غُدُوًّا وَعَشِيًّا
[Ghafir: 46]. This is from the punishment of the grave; their souls are presented to it while they are in the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection).
As for the Sunnah, it is replete with this and is mass-transmitted regarding the punishment of the grave.
