Ok this topic has been confusing me.
You know how they say that when you're dead you can feel, hear, and see (if your eyes are open) everything? The only thing you can't do is talk and move and all.
So does this mean if you get shot on your head and heart and all and die you will keep feeling the pain the whole time???
Or when you get blown up you can feel the pain the whole time??
What about those people who take out all the organs after someone dies??? so the person feels all that??
Can you really feel it?
I kno you wouldnt kno coz u would have to be dead but like hadiths or anything?

Jazakallah khair

No sis, once you're dead, you can't see, hear, feel anything in the physical sense. It is only the soul that will be able to do that. More later.. I'm too sleepy... g'nite.

How do you know that? *suspicious look*
lol
Yeah thats what some say but some islamic people at schools and stuff say you can so i just wanna get a real...educated, answer here where people are smart.
ok good night sis.

READ AYAT AL KURSI SO AN ANGEL CAN SIT NEXT TO YOU PROTECTING YOU!!

According to Islamic doctrine, between the moment of death and the burial ceremony, the spirit of a deceased Muslim takes a quick journey to Heaven and Hell, where it beholds visions of the bliss and torture awaiting humanity at the end of days.

By the time corpse handlers are ready to wash the body, the spirit returns to earth to observe the preparations for burial and to accompany the procession toward the cemetery. But then, before earth is piled upon the freshly dug grave, an unusual reunion takes place: The spirit returns to dwell within the body.


In the grave, the deceased Muslim - this composite of spirit and corpse - encounters two terrifying angels, Munkar and Nakir, recognized by their bluish faces, their huge teeth and their wild hair.


These angels carry out a trial to probe the soundness of a Muslim's faith. If the dead Muslim answers their questions convincingly and if he has no sin on record, then the grave is transformed into a luxurious space that makes bearable the long wait until the final judgment.


But if a Muslim's faith is imperfect or if he has sinned during life by, for example, failing repeatedly to undertake purity rituals before prayer, then the grave is transformed into an oppressive, constricting space.


The earth begins to weigh down heavily upon the sentient corpse, until the rib cage collapses; worms begin to nibble away at the flesh, causing horrible pain.
This torture does not continue indefinitely. It occurs intermittently and ends at the very latest with the resurrection - when God may well forgive Muslims who have endured the punishment.

Quite scary...um yeah kinda wierd but my aunty just called to let me know to tell my dad that someone has passed away, my dad is at Mosque so i had to call him...happened right after i read this thread

Oh yeh i read something like that, it said in the grave those angels come and ask u that. and if ur a believer the grave spreads as far as the eye can see and a window of paradise opens, but if ur a non believer or sin the grave closes up and breaks ur ribs (uuugh) and a snake comes and bites u and every bite hits u 70 ft or yards (somthin liek that) into the ground.
i kno the punishments of the grave tho. ...ew even the ones where they say the angels squish ur head wit a rock or somthing. like theres these sites saying the punishments of not praying, or not fasting, or lying, or backbiting, or som stuff liek that and its just disguusting. like seriously. ew

but do this mean u dont feel anythin when u die? like after u die? after the bullet kills u? or after u drown ina well? or after u get blown up by a tank? or anything?


Jazakallah khair for ur answer bro

aww may allah have mercy on whoever just died and all the muslims dead or alive...mostly dead tho.



p.s. IM NOTA CURSE!
juss sayin

u sure

Lool i hope so! hehe

You will definitely feel the punishment. How? Allaahu Aalim

I recall reading a hadith that you should respect the dead body and not abuse it because they feel that. As for your question, i don't know if they still feel the affect of how they died. I would probably go on the side of saying no unless shown otherwise.

After you die, your nerves and brain cease to function. You cannot feel pain or see or anything. Your simply no longer there.

If the soul has working eyes then it may be able to see things happening on earth or in heaven if that has light to see by or indeed physical things to see.
If the soul has a physical presence then it must be able to feel, the coolness of the flowing waters, the burnyness of the 70 X fire and pitch shirts.

Which as I have mentioned before, would lead you to wonder if you can stub your toe in heaven? Or if you can break your arm? Or die again!

This concept of people feeling pain in the grave, even for years to come whilst decomposing, surely flies in the face of scientific and medical evidence ...
Islam seems to place great importance on scientific evidence for information given in the Qu'ran - how does it reconcile these discrepancies?
