The next question, let's come on the fifth book again, by XiDan. Eric is a non Muslim, and he faith that if a person is cremated, then how will he be questioned about the question asked in the grave, it does not have a grave?
That's a very good question. And many people are confused. That because the Hadith of the parliament Salah Salem that after you die, you will be questioned in your grave. And there's also mention of the other of the punishment in the grave. And it also says that the people are buried the question, you have to understand that what this hadith means, when Prophet said that after you're buried, it means that because today we know that most of the human within the world they are buried. The Christian, the Muslims, majority of the human in the world today, if you do a survey, they are buried, less people are cremated, some are given to the vultures, when the statement is made. It is
mainly meaning after you die, you will be questioned.
If you're married, it's in the grave. If not, wherever you are, that doesn't mean that if you're not married, you will not be questioned. There are chances that maybe wild animals may kill you, and you don't get better. There are chances you will drown. Does it mean you won't be questioned? No. Because of questioning to think that acquired the soul and the body, the body? If you realize even when you're buried, it gets disintegrated.
It gets merged into the earth.
So the main concept is that if Allah can resurrect you on the Day of Judgment, why can't he get whether you have a body or not when they are buried over they have drowned when they are cremated, and like and yet if he wants to give you pain will give you punishment, as Allah says that in the Quran, in sorry, in son, chapter number 75 was number three, that
if those people who think that Allah cannot respect them on the Day of Judgment, how can Allah reassemble our bones on the Day of Judgment? So Allah tell them that Allah can not only reassemble the bones, he can reconstruct in perfect order, the very tip of your fingers, talking about fingerprints, Allah can even get your fingerprint which is not even identical in a million people. So when you can resurrect on the DOJ, when why can you do in the grave. So it is basically telling you that after you die, whether you are in the grave whether you are drawn with their cremated, there will be a minor question and answer session. They will be some punishment. They may be some
rewards. But the final recompense as Allah says in Psalm one, chapter three was 185 is the final recompense is on the Day of Judgment. Hope that answers your question.
