00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:05.820
A summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:05.820 --> 00:00:11.519
The torment and bliss of the grave.

00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:15.960
This is established by the Qur'an and Sunnah.

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:19.320
The deceased will either be blessed in their grave,

00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:22.519
or tormented, may Allah protect us.

00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:27.519
This applies to every deceased person, whether they were buried or not.

00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:30.879
The evidence for the bliss of the grave from the Qur'an

00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:32.880
is the saying of Allah, the Almighty:

00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.880
“Those whom the angels cause to die (when they are) good. They say: Peace be unto you! Enter the Garden because of what ye used to do.” (16:32)

00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:39.880
"They will say, 'Peace be upon you.'"

00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:43.880
“Those whom the angels cause to die (when they are) good. They say: Peace be unto you! Enter the Garden because of what ye used to do.” (16:32)

00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:45.880
This statement, upon death,

00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:48.880
is good tidings for the believer, who will experience bliss in their grave

00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.039
until the Day of Resurrection.

00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:55.039
The evidence for the torment of the grave is the saying of Allah, the Almighty:

00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:00.039
“The Fire; they are exposed to it morning and evening; and on the day when the Hour upriseth (it is said): Cause Pharaoh's folk to enter the most awful doom.” (40:46)

00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:03.039
"And on the Day when the Hour is established..."

00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:07.069
“The Fire; they are exposed to it morning and evening; and on the day when the Hour upriseth (it is said): Cause Pharaoh's folk to enter the most awful doom.” (40:46)

00:01:07.069 --> 00:01:09.069
As for the Sunnah,

00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:13.069
the hadiths concerning the torment and bliss of the grave are numerous and have reached the level of tawatur (widespread transmission).

00:01:13.069 --> 00:01:17.069
Among them is the hadith about seeking refuge after the Tashahhud in prayer:

00:01:17.069 --> 00:01:21.069
"O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the torment of the grave,"

00:01:21.069 --> 00:01:25.069
"and I seek refuge in You from the trial of the Dajjal."

00:01:25.069 --> 00:01:27.069
Agreed upon.
