Sayyidina Abu Hurayrah (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said: When the corpse, or (he said) one of you, is lowered in the grave, two angels, black-coloured with blue eyes, come to him. One of them is called Munkar and the other Nakir. They ask him, “What do you say about this man?” He answers what he was used to say (in the world), “He is Allah’s slave and His Messenger U And I bear witness that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger.’ They both say, “Indeed, we knew that you would say so.” Then his grave is expandea seventy cubits by seventy cubits and illuminated for him, and he is told, “Go to sleep.” He says, “I wish to return to my family and inform them.” But, they say, “Sleep as a newly married sleeps, whom none but the dearest of his family may wake up”, until Allah resurrects him from his sleep. But, if he is a hypocrite, he says, “I have heard people say and I say the like of that, while I do not know.” So, they both say, “Indeed, we knew that you would say so.” And it is said to the earth, “Press in upon him”, and it presses itself upon him. So, his ribs are squeezed together and the punishment does not cease on him till Allah resurrects him from that place of his.
