INTRODUCTION.

Quran 16:77 Koran 16:77 And to Allaah belongs the unseen (knowledge) of the heavens and the earth (which is knowledge that is unknown to humans), The matter of the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter) will be like the blinking of an eye or even shorter (in time meaning it will come suddenly in one moment in time). Allaah is able to do all things.

Quran 54:46 Koran 54:46 But the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the Hereafter) is their (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah) appointed time which shall be more severe and bitter (compared to anything suffered on the earth).

Quran 54:50 Koran 54:50 And Our (Allaah’s) commandment is only one (commandment) that is like the blink (meaning, as fast as the open and closing) of an eye.

Quran 70:4 Koran 70:4 (The seven sleepers in Quran 18:19 and the death and resurrection of Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:259 teach that the time between death and resurrection feels like nothing but sleeping for less than one day and this is confirmed in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 which teach that both the righteous and the wrongdoer shall swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a one hour sleep or ten hour sleep meaning sleeping in death for billions of years feels like closing and then opening your eyes. Everyone is returned to Allaah and) the angels and the Spirit (the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel Jibril) ascend (go up) to Him (Allaah) in a day the measure (duration) of which is (like) fifty thousand years (meaning after every human experienced billions of years in death as if it was only a very short one hour sleep or ten hour sleep humans will experience the Day of Resurrection and Judgement to feel like a very long day fifty thousand years long which in fact will be very short compared to eternity in the hereafter https://sites.google.com/site/islamandthequran/hadith-punishment-in-the-grave  ).

Death is like sleep.

Death is like sleeping for a few hours.

Quran 36:51 Koran 36:51 And the Horn shall be blown and from (out of) the graves they (the resurrected people) shall quickly go to their Lord (Allaah).

Quran 36:52 Koran 36:52 Saying, “O woe to us (we were sleeping for only a few hours), Who has raised us from our sleeping place (the sleeping place for the soul is in the hereafter)?” (It shall be said to them), “This is what the Most Merciful (Allaah) promised and the messengers (of Allaah) were truthful.”

Note 1. Leaving the grave is another way of saying resurrected from death to life.

In death the soul is sleeping in the hereafter but when a human is resurrected in the hereafter the last thing they can remember is that the time between their death and the Day of Resurrection feels like they were sleeping for only a few hours.

Note 2. The souls of the dead sleep under the care of Allaah in the hereafter.

There is nothing about punishment of a soul in the grave or the punishment of a soul that is sleeping in death in the hereafter.

Note 3. There is no punishment in the grave because the souls of the dead in the hereafter who are woken up do not remember anything except sleeping for a few hours.

Allaah teaches that “I stayed a day or part of a day” or “I remained a day or part of a day” means the time it feels like from death on the Earth to the Day of Resurrection in the Hereafter and not the time from birth on the Earth to the Day of Resurrection in the Hereafter.

Punishment in the grave is opposite to what Allaah teaches in the words “I stayed a day or part of a day” in the Quran in the same way as Jesus is Allaah or part of Allaah is opposite to the words "Jesus is the messenger of Allaah" which Allaah teaches in the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John meaning both stories were invented after the death of Prophet Muhammad and Prophet Jesus Isa.

Allaah shows that “I stayed a day or part of a day” or “I remained a day or part of a day” means the amount of time humans will feel or think has passed between the time of death on the Earth to the Day of Resurrection in the Hereafter and not the time from birth on the Earth to the Day of Resurrection in the Hereafter.

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 “… So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day." He (the angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years “…”

Note 1. The story of Prophet Ezra Uzair who died and is resurrected after 100 years and then says "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day” teaches humans that death is like a sleep that feels no more than a day or part of a day between the time of death and waking up on the Day of Resurrection.

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 And then We (Allaah) awakened them (from their sleep) to ask each other a question. One said, "How long have we stayed (here sleeping)?" They said, "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day …”

Note 1. Allaah begins the story of the seven sleepers after Quran 18:8. 

Quran 18:8 Koran 18:8 And (when the hour of the end of the Earth comes) We (Allaah) shall make all that is on it (the earth) dust (as if nothing had existed there).

Note 2. The story of the 7 sleeps who sleep and wake up after 309 years and then say "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day …” teach humans that death is like a sleep that feels no more than a day or part of a day between the time of death and waking up on the Day of Resurrection to confirm the meaning of Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Note 3. Allaah explains that the purpose of the story of the seven sleepers is to explain what happens between death represented by Quran 18:8 and the Day of Resurrection represented by waking up from what feels like a short sleep. 

Quran 18:21 Koran 18:21 And We (Allaah) caused them to be found so that they (who found them), would know that the promise of Allaah is true and that there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).

The Day of Resurrection and Judgement is near for every human in every generation because every human will say on the Day of Resurrection that the time between death and resurrection feels like a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep. 

Humans born from the beginning of human history until the last day on the Earth will all testify on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep. 

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 Or like the person (Prophet Ezra Uzair) who passed by a township (Jerusalem Al-Quds) which had fallen into complete ruin, and (out of curiosity), said “How can Allaah bring this town (Jerusalem Al-Quds and its religious life that were destroyed in 1209 BH 587 BCE 587 BC back) to life after death (after King Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire today in Iraq had destroyed Jerusalem Al-Quds)?" So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day" (confirming Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 where every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a one hour sleep or a ten hour sleep or like sleeping for part of one day). He (the angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, look at your food and your drink (and see that) it has not aged (showing that it was the power of Allaah which kept the food fresh for a hundred years) but look at your donkey (it is a skeleton, showing proof that one hundred years of time have really passed). Look at the bones (and see) how We (Allaah revealed through an angel) bring them together and cover them with flesh" (The donkey was brought back to life to show that it is Allaah who gives death and Allaah who gives life). We (Allaah revealed through an angel) made you (your resurrection, your food and your donkey) a sign (of the power of Allaah) for the people. When this became clear to him he (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said, "I know that Allaah has power over all things (confirming Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 where every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a one hour sleep or a ten hour sleep or like sleeping for part of one day)." 

Explain Quran 40:46. 

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it? See Quran 104:5 What can explain to you what the crushing destroyer is?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

The purpose of the story of the 7 sleepers in Quran 18:19 and Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:259 is to show that Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 are all describing death as a short sleep and this is what every human will testify on the Day of Resurrection.

Why is the hour near for every human? It is because every human will testify on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like nothing but a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep even though billions of years might have passed by between their death and the Day of Resurrection in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. 

The 7 sleepers who wake up and Prophet Ezra who is resurrected from death all say the same thing as in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 meaning they are all counting time of sleep meaning the time between death and the Day of Resurrection. 

Quran 40:46 can be understood in the following verses ending with Quran 46:35 which say the same thing as the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair say which is that on the Day of Resurrection every human will say death feels like a short sleep like staying for 1 hour in sleep or part of one day in sleep. 

Quran 104:5 Koran 104:5 What can explain to you what the crusher is?

Quran 104:6 Koran 104:6 It is the (crushing) fire (in Hell Jahannam) that is ignited by Allaah (on those in whose hearts there are evil deeds).

Quran 104:7 Koran 104:7 (A crushing fire) which reaches inside the hearts (of the wicked).

Quran 104:8 Koran 104:8 It (the crushing fire) shall close (its self) all around them (who are wicked).

Quran 104:9 Koran 104:9 In extended columns (of crushing fire that shall extend through and above the wicked and columns of smoke that shall extend above the wicked).

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it? See Quran 104:5 What can explain to you what the crushing destroyer is?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).”

Quran 46:35 Koran 46:35 So be patience (Prophet Muhammad) like the steadfast of the messengers (of the past) and do not be impatient (for Allaah’s punishment to come) to them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia). On the Day when they (the stone idol worshippers) see what they were promised (in the Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is decreed, it shall seem to them) as though they had stayed (sleeping for) only one hour of a day (before they were resurrected from death to life on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement). This is a notification (to you so that no one can deny they were not warned that the Day of Resurrection is real). Shall any perish (by losing the mercy of Allaah and living forever in Hell Jahannam) except the disobedient people?

1. If punishment is happening now in the grave then Prophet David Dawud would not say there is no memory in death and that no one will thank Allaah in death meaning in the grave.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know nothing, neither have they (those who died have) any more a reward (for praising Allaah); because (in death) they have no memory (of anything).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Ecclesiastes 12:7 And (in death) the dust returns to the earth as it was and the spirit returns to Allaah who gave it. 

Zabur Psalm 6:6 For there is no memory of You (Allaah) in death; in the grave, who will thank You (Allaah)? 

Note 1. Humans have no memory in death meaning no memory when they are in the grave. 

Note 2. Humans have no memory of Allaah when they are in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave. 

Note 3. Dead humans can only know Allaah when they are resurrected back to life meaning nothing happens during death in the grave. 

Note 4. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Zabur Psalm 146:4 (When death comes) his breath goes out, he returns to the earth (as dust); in that very day (of his death) his thoughts perish (meaning he has no memory in death).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:18 For the dead in the grave cannot praise You (Allaah), death cannot celebrate You (Allaah); they that go down into the grave cannot hope for Your (Allaah’s) truth (because those in the grave have no memory). 

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise You (Allaah), as I (Prophet Isaiah) do this day; the father to the children shall make known Your (Allaah’s) truth. 

Isaiah 26:19 Your dead shall live, “My dead bodies shall arise, awake and sing, you that dwell in the dust (grave) for Your (Allaah’s) dew (the Torah) is like the dew of light (of guidance), and the earth shall bring to life the shades (those in the graves). 

Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and everlasting abhorrence.

2. If punishment is happening now in the grave then Allaah would not be teaching in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 that on the Day of Resurrection every human will wake up and swear that death feels like staying in a 1 hour sleep or a ten hour sleep like the 7 sleepers in Quran 18:19 said and like Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:259 said when he was resurrected from death. 

3. If punishment in the grave is real it would be revealed to the Christians in the Gospel Injil but there is nothing in the four Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John. 

4. If punishment in the grave is real it would be revealed to the Jews in the Torah Taurat but there is nothing in the Torah Taurat instead in the Hebrew Bible 

Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know nothing, neither have they (those who died have) any more a reward (for praising Allaah); because (in death) they have no memory (of anything).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Ecclesiastes 12:7 And (in death) the dust returns to the earth as it was and the spirit returns to Allaah who gave it. 

Zabur Psalm 6:6 For there is no memory of You (Allaah) in death; in the grave, who will thank You (Allaah)? 

Note 1. Humans have no memory in death meaning no memory when they are in the grave. 

Note 2. Humans have no memory of Allaah when they are in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave. 

Note 3. Dead humans can only know Allaah when they are resurrected back to life meaning nothing happens during death in the grave. 

Note 4. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Zabur Psalm 146:4 (When death comes) his breath goes out, he returns to the earth (as dust); in that very day (of his death) his thoughts perish (meaning he has no memory in death).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:18 For the dead in the grave cannot praise You (Allaah), death cannot celebrate You (Allaah); they that go down into the grave cannot hope for Your (Allaah’s) truth (because those in the grave have no memory). 

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise You (Allaah), as I (Prophet Isaiah) do this day; the father to the children shall make known Your (Allaah’s) truth. 

Isaiah 26:19 Your dead shall live, “My dead bodies shall arise, awake and sing, you that dwell in the dust (grave) for Your (Allaah’s) dew (the Torah) is like the dew of light (of guidance), and the earth shall bring to life the shades (those in the graves). 

Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and everlasting abhorrence.

5. If punishment in the grave does not exist then the correct meaning of Quran 40:46 is indeed a confirmation of what is in Quran 104:5 – 104:6 and Quran 46:34 in the same way as death feels like a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep is confirmed by Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 .

Allaah has repeated the lesson that death feels like staying in a very short sleep even though billions of years might pass until the Day of Resurrection when every human will swear death feels like staying in a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep.

Allaah is showing us that punishments in the grave are false stories whispered by the same one who whispered “Jesus Isa is Allaah or part of Allaah.”

If Allaah is teaching us in so many verses (not one or two verses but many verses) that death feels like staying in a 1 hour sleep or 10 hour sleep (then Allaah is telling us this is very important information for us to understand) because Allaah is showing us that all hadith stories about “punishment in the grave” were invented after the death of Prophet Muhammad in the same way as stories that “Jesus is Allaah or part of Allaah” were invented after the death of Prophet Jesus Isa. 

6. There is no punishment in the grave because on the Day of Resurrection every human does not wake up talking about punishment in the grave but every human wakes up to swear death feels like nothing but staying in a 1 hour sleep or a 10 hour sleep meaning there is no punishment in the grave because the Quran confirms what came before it in the Gospel Injil and in the Torah Taurat which all teach after death comes the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

Only Satan Shaitan whispers the opposite to what Allaah is teaching so Allaah is protecting us from false hadith stories by teaching us in many verses that on the Day of Resurrection every human will swear that death feels like nothing but a 1 hour or 10 hour sleep.

A. The Quran teaches that death in the grave is like a short sleep.

1. Quran 2:259 after 100 years in death Prophet Ezra Uzair is resurrected to life and says "I remained (dead sleeping for what feels like) a day or part of a day".

2. Quran 18:19 after 309 years in sleep the 7 sleepers are resurrected to life and say "We have stayed (maybe for what feels like) a day or part of a day.

B. On the Day of resurrection every human will say 

1. Quran 20:103 says “You have stayed ten (hours sleeping in death like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described). 

2. Quran 20:104 says "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described). 

3. Quran 23:113 says they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described). 

4. Quran 30:55 says the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described), 

5. Quran 46:35 says it shall seem to them) as though they had stayed (sleeping for) only one hour of a day (before they were resurrected from death to life on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described)  

6. Quran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning  (like the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra Uzair described). 

Quran 7:187 says the Hour of the Day of Resurrection “will come suddenly” meaning there will be no warning after death like punishment in the grave otherwise everyone would know that the Day of Resurrection was coming and it would not be a surprise to anyone. 

The angel of death will take every soul to the separation or barrier called Barzakh. 

Every person will wake up on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, new land, new ground in the Hereafter and testify that Barzakh felt like nothing but a short sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. 

Quran 23:99 Koran 23:99 When death comes to one of them (who were wicked on the earth), he says (in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement of Hell for the wicked), “My Lord (Allaah) send me back (to life on the earth),” 

Quran 23:100 Koran 23:100 "So that I may do righteous (deeds) in what is left behind (on the earth because my deeds on the earth were bad)", No, it is a word (of regret that) he speaks (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement of Hell for the wicked because on that Day the Earth and the first creation shall not exist except for what has been resurrected so it will be too late for him to change his behaviour) and behind him is a barrier (that does not allow the dead to return to life meaning the soul is in the care of Allaah) until the day when they (who died) are raised (back to life in the Hereafter meaning every human has only one life on the earth in which they can choose good or evil behaviour).

Note 1. When humans are resurrected back to life it will seem to them that only one hour or ten hours of time had passed between their death and their resurrection as described in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 so the wicked among them will ask to be returned to the Earth but the Earth will not exist. 

Note 2. The angel of death will take every soul to Barzakh.

Note 3. Every person will wake up on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, new land, new ground in the Hereafter and testify that Barzakh felt like nothing but a short sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 so the wicked among them will ask to be returned to the Earth but the Earth will not exist.

Proof from Allaah and Prophet Muhammad that there is no punishment in the grave.

How do Muslims today know that punishment in the grave was invented after the death of Prophet Muhammad by people who made a living telling invented stories?

In the Quran Allaah teaches many times that death is like sleep. 

In death there is no perception of time so the next thing a human will see after death is the Day of Resurrection and Judgement. 

Psalm Zabur recited by Prophet David Dawud and the Quran recited by Prophet Muhammad confirm there is no life in the grave and no feeling in the grave and no talking in the grave and no sight in the grave and no voices in the grave and no consciousness in the grave between the time of death and the Day of Resurrection.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know nothing, neither have they (those who died have) any more a reward (for praising Allaah); because (in death) they have no memory (of anything).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Ecclesiastes 12:7 And (in death) the dust returns to the earth as it was and the spirit returns to Allaah who gave it. 

Zabur Psalm 6:6 For there is no memory of You (Allaah) in death; in the grave, who will thank You (Allaah)? 

Note 1. Humans have no memory in death meaning no memory when they are in the grave. 

Note 2. Humans have no memory of Allaah when they are in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave. 

Note 3. Dead humans can only know Allaah when they are resurrected back to life meaning nothing happens during death in the grave. 

Note 4. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Zabur Psalm 146:4 (When death comes) his breath goes out, he returns to the earth (as dust); in that very day (of his death) his thoughts perish (meaning he has no memory in death).

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:18 For the dead in the grave cannot praise You (Allaah), death cannot celebrate You (Allaah); they that go down into the grave cannot hope for Your (Allaah’s) truth (because those in the grave have no memory). 

Note 1. In death there is no memory and this is why on the Day of Resurrection when people are asked how much time has passed it will feel like only a day or part of a day had passed between the time of their death and the Day of their Resurrection in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise You (Allaah), as I (Prophet Isaiah) do this day; the father to the children shall make known Your (Allaah’s) truth. 

Isaiah 26:19 Your dead shall live, “My dead bodies shall arise, awake and sing, you that dwell in the dust (grave) for Your (Allaah’s) dew (the Torah) is like the dew of light (of guidance), and the earth shall bring to life the shades (those in the graves). 

Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and everlasting abhorrence.

Quran 46:35 Koran 46:35 So be patience (Prophet Muhammad) like the steadfast of the messengers (of the past) and do not be impatient (for Allaah’s punishment to come) to them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia). On the Day when they (the stone idol worshippers) see what they were promised (in the Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is decreed, it shall seem to them) as though they had stayed (sleeping for) only one hour of a day (before they were resurrected from death to life on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement). This is a notification (to you so that no one can deny they were not warned that the Day of Resurrection is real). Shall any perish (by losing the mercy of Allaah and living forever in Hell Jahannam) except the disobedient people?

Note 1. Prophet Muhammad never taught or believed in punishment in the grave because it is opposite to what Allaah is teaching in the Quran where the stone idol worshippers will swear that it feels like only one hour passed between the time they died and the Day of Resurrection.

If there was punishment or reward in the grave then everyone would know that the Day of Resurrection was coming however Allaah tells us that the Day of Resurrection will come suddenly meaning there will be nothing in death that will warn anyone about the Day of Resurrection meaning the Day of Resurrection will come suddenly without any warning such as punishment or reward in the grave.

If there was punishment or reward in the grave then every human would know that the Day of Resurrection was coming and it would not be a surprise to anyone.

.

Quran 7:187 Koran 7:187 They ask you (Prophet Muhammad) about The Hour (of the Day of Resurrection) and when it shall come. Say, “Knowledge of this is with my Lord (Allaah) only. He (Allaah) alone shall make it happen at the proper time. It lays heavily on the heavens and the earth (because of the greatness of that event). It shall come to you suddenly. They question you as if you might be well informed of it. Say, “Knowledge of it is with Allaah only, but most of the people do not know that (because they think others have this knowledge).”

.

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day).

The Quran is proof from Allaah and Prophet Muhammad that all hadith stories about punishment in the grave are false hadith stories.

On the Day of Resurrection the wrong doers will say death feels like nothing more than a one hour sleep in Quran 30:55 and Quran 46:35 or a ten hour sleep in Quran 20:103 or not more than one day of sleep in Quran 20:104 or part of one day’s sleep in Quran 23:113 or part of one evening or morning of sleep in Quran 79:46.

Sleeping for 309 years feels like sleeping for part of a day in Quran 18:19.

Resurrection from death to life after 100 years feels like sleeping for part of a day in Quran 2:259.

Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran that on the Day of Resurrection every human wrong doer or righteous will say “It feels like the time between death and resurrection is nothing more than staying in sleep for only one hour or part of one day.”

Quran 2:259, 7:187, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 explain that the Day of Resurrection and Judgement is near for every human.

What does Allaah teach us about the grave? 

The cave of the seven sleepers represents the grave.

The Day of Resurrection is represented by the seven sleepers waking up after 309 years of sleeping.

The story of the seven sleepers in the cave starts after Quran 18:8 where the Earth is destroyed and shows what happens between the time of death on the earth and the time of resurrection on a new earth in the hereafter. 

The story of the seven sleepers describes what happens in the grave and what people will say about the grave on the Day of Resurrection when every human both the wicked and the righteous will say that the time between death and resurrection feels like nothing but sleeping for only part of one day in Quran 23:113 or like only sleeping for one evening in Quran 79:46 or like only sleeping for one morning in Quran 79:46 or like only sleeping for one hour in Quran 30:55 or like only sleeping for ten hours in Quran 20:103. 

The story ends in Quran 18:21 saying that the purpose of the story of the seven sleepers in the cave is to show that there is no doubt about the coming of the hour of the Day of Resurrection.

This story also explains why the Day of Resurrection is near for every human in every generation.

Hadith stories which contradict the Quran were invented by people who did not understand what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad are teaching in the Quran.

This means every verse in the Quran which humans mistakenly believe is about punishment in the grave is corrupted inside the human mind so as to hide the true meaning of that verse.

This is what Satan Shaitan did to some Christians by whispering false stories that “Jesus Isa is Allaah” so that when a person tries to understand a verse Satan Shaitan whispers “Jesus Isa is Allaah” so that a human might misunderstand the verses of Allaah in the Gospel Injil.

Satan Shaitan does the same to some Muslims by whispering false stories of “punishment in the grave” so that when a person tries to understand a verse Satan Shaitan whispers “punishment in the grave” so that a human might misunderstand the verses of Allaah in the Quran.

If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Torah Taurat as a warning to the Jews but it is not there.

If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Gospel Injil as a warning to the Christians but it is not there.

If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Quran as a warning to the Muslims but it is not there.

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 "... So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day". (The angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, ..."

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 And then We (Allaah) awakened them (from their sleep) to ask each other a question. One said, "How long have we stayed (here sleeping)?" They said, "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day but only Our Lord (Allaah) knows how long we have stayed (here).” One of you go with this money to the town and find some good food to bring back (to the cave). Be careful and do not arouse any suspicion about you (in the town because we are still hiding from our people in this cave).

Note 1. Allaah begins the story of the seven sleepers after Quran 18:8. 

Quran 18:8 Koran 18:8 And (when the hour of the end of the Earth comes) We (Allaah) shall make all that is on it (the earth) dust (as if nothing had existed there).

Note 2. The story of the 7 sleeps who sleep and wake up after 309 years and then say "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day …” teach humans that death is like a sleep that feels no more than a day or part of a day between the time of death and waking up on the Day of Resurrection to confirm the meaning of Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.

Note 3. Allaah explains that the purpose of the story of the seven sleepers is to explain what happens between death represented by Quran 18:8 and the Day of Resurrection represented by waking up from what feels like a short sleep. 

Quran 18:21 Koran 18:21 And We (Allaah) caused them to be found so that they (who found them), would know that the promise of Allaah is true and that there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).

Quran 20:103 Koran 20:103 (And on the Day of Resurrection the blue-eyed wrong doers meaning those who have been resurrected with glaucoma meaning blue, green, or gray which is a disease of the eye causing blindness shall be) whispering among themselves (asking how long did we sleep in death before we woke up in the hereafter and they shall say to each other), “You have stayed (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter for what feels like maybe) ten (hours but we are not sure. Ask those who know how to keep count of time).”

Quran 20:104 Koran 20:104 We (Allaah) know very well what they (the people) shall say, when the best of them in behaviour shall say (to the others, that Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 said the truth that on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like), "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 46:35 Koran 46:35 So be patience (Prophet Muhammad) like the steadfast of the messengers (of the past) and do not be impatient (for Allaah’s punishment to come) to them (the stone idol worshippers of Makkah Arabia). On the Day when they (the stone idol worshippers) see what they were promised (in the Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is decreed, it shall seem to them) as though they had stayed (sleeping for) only one hour of a day (before they were resurrected from death to life on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement). This is a notification (to you so that no one can deny they were not warned that the Day of Resurrection is real). Shall any perish (by losing the mercy of Allaah and living forever in Hell Jahannam) except the disobedient people? 

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning.

Here is what Allaah revealed about the grave and what Prophet Muhammad taught all the people about the grave.

On the Day of Resurrection every human both the wrong doers and the righteous will say death feels like nothing more than a one hour sleep in Quran 30:55 or a ten hour sleep in Quran 20:103 or not more than one day of sleep in Quran 20:104 or part of one day’s sleep in Quran 23:113 or part of one evening or morning of sleep in Quran 79:46.

This is confirmed in the story of the seven sleepers in the cave who wake up after 309 years saying it feels like only a day or part of a day in sleep has passed in Quran 18:19 and in the story of the resurrection of Prophet Ezra after 100 years of death saying it feels like only a day or part of a day in sleep has passed in Quran 2:259.

Quran 20:104 Koran 20:104 We (Allaah) know very well what they (the people) shall say, when the best of them in behaviour shall say (to the others, that Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 said the truth that on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like), "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

Punishment in the grave is opposite to the teachings in the books of Allaah.

In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might boast he obeyed Quran 17:88 and produced something like the Quran in hundreds of hadith stories about punishment in the grave.

Satan Shaitan might claim that all those whom he deceived will be his proof that he produced something that was like or better than the Quran because those who believed in punishment in the grave could not see any difference between the books inspired by Allaah in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Quran where there is nothing about punishment in the grave and the whispering of Satan Shaitan in hundreds of false hadith stories about punishment in the grave.

In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might be told that those who disbelieved every hadith story that was opposite to what Allaah teaches in the Quran is proof that Satan Shaitan failed to produce anything like the Quran.

Quran 17:88 Koran 17:88 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "If humans and jinn (such as Satan Shaitan) came together to help each other to produce something like the Quran, they could not do it." 

Note 1. In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might boast he obeyed Quran 17:88 by whispering hundreds of false hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran.

Note 2. Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 is proof that all hadith stories about punishment in the grave are false stories invented by dishonest people who made a living by claimed their stories came from Prophet Muhammad because people loved listening to stories about Prophet Muhammad.

Punishment in the grave contradicts the Quran. 

If there was punishment or reward in the grave then everyone would know that the Day of Resurrection was coming however Allaah tells us that the Day of Resurrection will come suddenly meaning there will be nothing in death that will warn anyone about the Day of Resurrection meaning the Day of Resurrection will come suddenly without any warning such as punishment or reward in the grave.

If there was punishment or reward in the grave then every human would know that the Day of Resurrection was coming and it would not be a surprise to anyone. 

Quran 7:187 Koran 7:187 They ask you (Prophet Muhammad) about The Hour (of the Day of Resurrection) and when it shall come. Say, “Knowledge of this is with my Lord (Allaah) only. He (Allaah) alone shall make it happen at the proper time. It lays heavily on the heavens and the earth (because of the greatness of that event). It shall come to you suddenly. They question you as if you might be well informed of it. Say, “Knowledge of it is with Allaah only, but most of the people do not know that (because they think others have this knowledge).” 

The Quran explains there is no punishment in the grave in the story of the seven sleepers who sleep for 309 years and wake up to tell us that death feels like nothing but a short sleep.

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 And then We (Allaah) awakened them (from their sleep) to ask each other a question. One said, "How long have we stayed (here sleeping)?" They said, "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day but only Our Lord (Allaah) knows how long we have stayed (here).” …”

Note 1. The 7 sleepers in the cave are sleeping (dead) for 309 years and wake up (resurrected) and say "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day (sleeping) meaning death feels like nothing but a short sleep.

Quran 18:21 Koran 18:21 And We (Allaah) caused them to be found so that they (who found them), would know that the promise of Allaah is true and that there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).

Note 1. The story of the 7 sleepers in a cave is about what happens in death (sleep) and what people will say about death (sleep) when they wake up on the Day of Resurrection.

Exactly the same story is told by Allaah in the story of Prophet Ezra Uzair who sleeps for 100 years and wakes up to tell us that death feels like nothing but a short sleep.

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 "... So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day". (The angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years ..."

Note 1. The story of Prophet Ezra Uzair is about what happens in death (sleep) and what people will say about death (sleep) when they wake up on the Day of Resurrection. 

In Quran 18:8 the earth is destroyed.

In Quran 18:9 the story of the 7 sleepers starts.

The cave represents the grave and describes what every person will say when they wake up on the Day of Resurrection like the sleepers who are resurrected in Quran 18:19 and say "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day.

Now compare that to Quran chapter 20. 

Quran 20:103 Koran 20:103 whispering among themselves (asking how long did we sleep in death before we woke up in the hereafter and they shall say to each other), “You have stayed (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter for what feels like maybe) ten (hours but we are not sure. Ask those who know how to keep count of time).”

This is a wonderful verse because you can choose 10 seconds or 10 minutes or 10 hours or 10 days or 10 weeks or 10 centuries but only those who understand will say ten hours.

Notice the 7 sleepers say in Quran 18:19 "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day” which is the same as Prophet Ezra Uzair said and notice what Quran 20:104 says (the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like) "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

Quran 20:104 Koran 20:104 We (Allaah) know very well what they (the people) shall say, when the best of them in behaviour shall say (to the others, that Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 said the truth that on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like), "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

After the 7 sleepers say in Quran 18:19 "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day in Quran 18:21 Allaah gives the reason for this story “so that they (who found them), would know that the promise of Allaah is true and that there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).

Notice that the description of Quran 18:19 "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day is placed between Quran 18:8 when the earth is destroyed and Quran 18:21 which gives the reason for the story as “there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).” 

If you check what people say on the Day of Resurrection in Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 with what is said in the story of the 7 sleepers and the sleep of Prophet Ezra Uzair you will see they are using exactly the same words and describing exactly the same among of time passing. 

Allaah cares for souls in heaven not in the grave.

Quran 3:169 Koran 3:169 Do not think of those who are killed in the way of Allaah (meaning with faith in Allaah) as dead. No. They are alive (meaning their body died on the Earth but their soul is alive in heaven) near their Lord (Allaah) and they are given provision (because no soul can live unless Allaah has decreed it. Believers on the Earth do not be distressed. They are) -

Comment 1. When the “soul” is given “a body” on the Day of Resurrection every person will wake up suddenly and swear in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection feels like a I hour sleep or 10 hour sleep confirming what was said by the 7 sleepers in Quran 18:19 and Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:258.

Quran 3:170 Koran 3:170 Rejoicing in what Allaah bestowed on them of His bounty (meaning the promise of Allaah is true that although their body died on the Earth their soul is alive in heaven) and they receive good news about those who have not yet joined with them (in heaven) but are left behind (in this world meaning when every person suddenly wakes up on the Day of Resurrection swearing that death felt like nothing but a one or ten hour sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 they will have the knowledge which Allaah said they will have) that (there will be) no fear on them and they will not grieve (in the hereafter because Allaah has decreed it so do not be distressed). 

Note 1. When the Quran talks about the souls of the dead in heaven receiving good news about those who have not yet joined with them who are living on the earth it means on the Day of Resurrection when every person wakes up swearing that death feels like a one or ten hour sleep they will have the knowledge which Allaah said they will have.

Note 2. Allaah cares for souls in heaven not in the grave.

“Coming out of the grave” is another way of saying “resurrected” when the soul is given a body on the Day of Resurrection and every person will wake up suddenly and swear in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection feels like a I hour sleep or 10 hour sleep confirming what was said by the 7 sleepers in Quran 18:19 and Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:258.

Quran 3:171 Koran 3:171 They (the souls in heaven) receive good news of favour (mercy) from Allaah and bounty (because no soul can live unless Allaah has decreed it) and that Allaah does not let go to waste the reward of the believers (meaning when every person suddenly wakes up on the Day of Resurrection swearing that death felt like nothing but a one or ten hour sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 they will have the knowledge which Allaah said they will have so believers on the Earth do not be distressed). 

Note 1. When the Quran talks about receiving good news in heaven it means on the Day of Resurrection when every person wakes up swearing that death feels like nothing but a one or ten hour sleep they will have the knowledge which Allaah said they will have.

Note 2. Allaah cares for souls in heaven not in the grave.

“Coming out of the grave” is another way of saying “giving the soul a body” on the Day of Resurrection when every person will wake up suddenly and swear in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection feels like a I hour sleep or 10 hour sleep confirming what was said by the 7 sleepers in Quran 18:19 and Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:258.

Quran 3:172 Koran 3:172 Those who responded to Allaah and the messenger (Prophet Muhammad) after the hurt that happened to them (in the battle of Uhud) and for those who did good (behaviour) among them and feared Allaah, there is a great reward (for them in the hereafter). 

Comment 1. The revelation of Quran 3:169 - 3:171 is explained in Quran 3:172. 

The news of deaths in the battle of Uhud brought great distress to the families of those who were killed. 

To ease their pain Allaah revealed that there is no reason to feel distressed because Allaah cares for every soul meaning Allaah provides for its continuing existence so Allaah tells those families and friends to think of their loved ones as “rejoicing in what Allaah bestowed on them of His bounty” so that those families might be eased from their distress by knowing that “they receive good news about those who have not yet joined with them (in heaven) but are left behind (in this world meaning when every person suddenly wakes up on the Day of Resurrection swearing that death felt like nothing but a one or ten hour sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 they will have the knowledge which Allaah said they will have) that (there will be) no fear on them and they will not grieve (in the hereafter because Allaah has decreed it so do not be distressed). 

Allaah is teaching that the body of a human is dead in the grave on the Earth but their soul is raised to heaven and to the care of Allaah so believers on the Earth do not be distressed when someone dies because Allaah is caring for them.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 Allaah takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when Allaah saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to Allaah in Quran 4:158). He (Allaah) keeps those (souls) for which He (Allaah) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when Allaah returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not Allaah by saying Allaah is my Allaah and your Allaah meaning Allaah is my Father and your Father meaning Allaah is my Creator and your Creator meaning Allaah is my Master and your Master meaning Allaah is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of Allaah) for people who think.  

Note 1. Allaah does not take the human body to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 2. Only the human soul is raised to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 3. The human body is only needed on the Earth (Quran 39:42). .

Note 4. The human body is not needed in heaven (Quran 39:42).

Note 5. The human soul is alive in heaven without a human body (Quran 39:42).

Note 6. What happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross in Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 is explained in Quran 39:42.

Note 7. The Quran confirms what is in the Gospel Injil of Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that is with the Christians today as proof that no one can change the words of Allaah and as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran.

How is Trinity in Christianity like Punishment in the Grave in Islam?

If you tell some Christians that nowhere in the four Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John did Jesus Isa say “I am Allaah” or “worship me Jesus Isa” some Christians (not all Christians) will still believe Jesus Isa is Allaah or part of Allaah.

Why? It is only because some people believe stories from humans which are not in the Gospel Injil.

It does not matter how many verses from the four Gospel Injil you show them as proof that Jesus Isa is not Allaah they cannot accept it because they believe other stories from humans that are not written in the four Gospel Injil.

By believing stories from humans that are not in the Gospel Injil their mind makes every verse confirm that Jesus Isa is Allaah or part of Allaah when in fact every verse in the Gospel Injil confirms that Jesus Isa is a messenger of Allaah like Moses Musa is a messenger of Allaah but “there is a covering over their eyes” so they are not correctly understanding what is written in the four Gospel Injil.

If you tell some Muslims that the meaning of Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 is the same as the story of the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra meaning everyone will wake up on the Day of Resurrection and swear that death feels like nothing but staying in a short sleep because all these verses use exactly the same words some Muslims (not all Muslims) will still believe in punishment in the grave which Allaah never mentioned to the Jews in the Torah Taurat or to the Christians in the Gospel Injil and is opposite to what Allaah is teaching in the Quran.

On the Day of Resurrection people in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 use exactly the same words as the 7 sleepers and Prophet Ezra confirming that both the righteous and the wrong doers will wake up on the Day of Resurrection and swear death feels like nothing but staying in sleep for one hour or staying in sleep for ten hours or like staying in sleep for part of a morning or part of an afternoon but not more than one day.

However like the Christians who believe in Trinity it does not matter how many verses of the Quran you show to some Muslims they cannot accept there is no punishment in the grave because they believe stories from humans that are not written in the Quran like some Christians cannot believe that Jesus is not Allaah because they believe stories from humans which are not written in any of the four Gospel Injil.

Christians and Muslims who believe what is opposite to what Allaah teaches believe the stories of humans instead of what Allaah is teaching in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is nothing but a human like Moses Musa is nothing but a human and in the Quran every human will testify on the Day of Resurrection exactly what Allaah says in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 which is that death feels like staying in sleep for one hour or staying is sleep for 10 hours or like staying in sleep for part of one afternoon or part of one evening.

The only one who whispers stories that are opposite to what Allaah teaches is Satan Shaitan.

Satan Shaitan is a deceiver and his mission is to make humans believe the opposite to what Allaah teaches.

It is easy for Satan Shaitan to whisper stories using the name of Prophet Jesus Isa or the name of Prophet Muhammad and using whatever chains of transmission Satan Shaitan wants to whisper so the only way you can know if a story is true or false is to see if it confirms what Allaah teaches because Satan Shaitan cannot change the Books of Allaah.

If hadith stories are the same as the teachings of Allaah in the Quran then that is good.

If hadith stories are opposite to what is in the protected Quran then those hadith came from the whispers of Satan Shaitan meaning Satan Shaitan used the name of the prophet and chains of transmission which are easy for Satan Shaitan who knows every human because Satan Shaitan will not die until the end of the creation.

It is easy for Satan Shaitan who has lived for millions of years to deceive humans who only live for 100 years but Satan Shaitan cannot deceive the humans who believe and trust the Books of Allaah and only believe the hadith stories that are not opposite to what Allaah teaches in the Books of Allaah.

In the hereafter Allaah might ask some Christians “Where in the Gospel Injil did Jesus Isa say Jesus Isa is Allaah?” and no one will have one verse from the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which says “Jesus Isa is Allaah” or “part of Allaah”.

In the hereafter Allaah might ask some Muslims “Where in the Quran is punishment in the grave and no one will have one verse from the Quran because Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 confirm there is no such thing as punishment in the grave because Allaah teaches that every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like staying for one hour in sleep or staying for ten hours in sleep or staying for part of one morning or staying for part of one afternoon in sleep.

After the death of messenger Jesus Isa Satan whispered “Jesus is Allaah” or “part of Allaah.”

After the death of messenger Muhammad Satan whispered “punishment in the grave.”

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it. 

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the words and actions of Prophet Muhammad which are described and protected by Allaah.  

1. Fabricated hadith 1. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2, Book 23, Hadith 454.

Narrated By Masruq:

'Aisha said that a Jewess came to her and mentioned the punishment in the grave, saying to her, "May Allaah protect you from the punishment of the grave." 'Aisha then asked Allaah’s Apostle about the punishment of the grave. He said, "Yes, (there is) punishment in the grave." 'Aisha added, "After that I never saw Allaah’s Apostle but seeking refuge with Allaah from the punishment in the grave in every prayer he prayed."

This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts what Allaah teaches in Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.  

1. Punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 which are confirmed in the story of the seven people who woke up after sleeping for 309 years in a cave in Ephesus, Turkey to describe death as a short sleep and in the story of Prophet Ezra Uzair who died near Jerusalem Al-Quds and was resurrected back to life 100 years later to describe death as a short sleep.

There is no punishment in the grave because for every human the time between death on the earth and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter will feel like only one hour or ten hours or part of a day has passed in sleep in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 meaning that for every human death will feel like nothing more than a very brief short sleep.

Quran 20:103 Koran 20:103 (And on the Day of Resurrection the blue-eyed wrong doers meaning those who have been resurrected with glaucoma meaning blue, green, or gray which is a disease of the eye causing blindness shall be) whispering among themselves (asking how long did we sleep in death before we woke up in the hereafter and they shall say to each other), “You have stayed (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter for what feels like maybe) ten (hours but we are not sure. Ask those who know how to keep count of time).”

Quran 20:104 Koran 20:104 We (Allaah) know very well what they (the people) shall say, when the best of them in behaviour shall say (to the others, that Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 said the truth that on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like), "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

Quran 23:114 Koran 23:114 (On the Day of Resurrection) He (Allaah) shall say , “You stayed for a brief time (in death before you were resurrected in the hereafter meaning that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter was short meaning the promise of Allaah that the hour was near was the truth).” 

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 30:56 Koran 30:56 But to those to whom knowledge and faith was given, they shall say, “The truth is that you have stayed (sleeping in death) until the Day of Resurrection as Allaah decreed. This is the Day of Resurrection, but you did not know (that the time between death and resurrection feels like it is only an hour long or as long as a part of a day because you did not believe in Allaah, your creator when you were in the world).”

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning.

1a. What does “they only stayed for an hour” mean in Quran 30:55?

There is no punishment in the grave because when the wrong doer and the righteous are resurrected both will say in the hereafter that the time between their death and their resurrection feels like only one hour or part of a day in sleep had passed.

Quran 40:16 Koran 40:16 The Day (of Resurrection) when they (each human) come out ("out of their graves" which is one way of saying resurrected from death back to life in the hereafter) nothing about them (each human) shall be hidden from Allaah. To whom does the sovereignty of that Day (of Resurrection) belong? It is to Allaah, the one (creator of every creation) and the Almighty (because nothing is mightier than Allaah). 

Nothing will be hidden from Allaah when humans testify against themselves on the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter. 

If Allaah asks humans how many years they lived on the earth, every human will tell the truth. 

If humans cannot answer this question then Allaah is not asking them how long they lived until they died.

The only question from Allaah that humans will not be able to answer on the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter is “how many years they stayed on earth in the grave” before they were resurrected in the hereafter meaning how many years passed between their death on earth and their resurrection in the hereafter.

Humans will not be able to answer this question because they did not believe in Allaah or because they believed in Allaah but Allaah did not reveal the hour of the resurrection in the Torah Taurat or in the Gospel Injil or in the Quran.

Every human will feel that the time between their death on earth and their resurrection in the hereafter was only one hour or part of a day but only Allaah will know how many years passed between their death and the time of their resurrection in the hereafter.

Quran 23:112 Koran 23:112 – He (Allaah) shall say (on the Day of Resurrection to those who did evil), "How many years did you stay in the Earth (in your grave meaning in death before you were resurrected)?" 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

Quran 23:114 Koran 23:114 (On the Day of Resurrection) He (Allaah) shall say , “You stayed for a brief time (in death before you were resurrected in the hereafter meaning that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter was short meaning the promise of Allaah that the hour was near was the truth).” 

Quran 23:115 Koran 23:115 Did you (the evil doer) think that We (Allaah) have created you for nothing (meaning, for no purpose), and that you would not be returned to Us (Allaah on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement)?

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 30:56 Koran 30:56 But to those to whom knowledge and faith was given, they shall say, “The truth is that you have stayed (sleeping in death) until the Day of Resurrection as Allaah decreed. This is the Day of Resurrection, but you did not know (that the time between death and resurrection feels like it is only an hour long or as long as a part of a day because you did not believe in Allaah, your creator when you were in the world).”

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning.

1b. Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 are confirmed by Allaah who shows that death is like the short sleep felt by the seven people who woke up after sleeping for 309 years in a cave in Ephesus, Turkey.

The story of the seven people sleeping in the cave confirms Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 30:56, 46:35 and 79:46 that resurrection from death to life on the Day of Resurrection will feel like waking up from a short sleep that was only one hour long or ten hours long or only as long as part of one day.

Quran 18:8 Koran 18:8 And (when the hour of the end of the Earth comes) We (Allaah) shall make all that is on it (the earth) dust (as if nothing had existed there).

Note 1. The story of the seven people sleeping in a cave has been placed after Quran 18:8 which is the destruction of the earth and all life.

Note 2. The Day of Resurrection is after the destruction of this earth, the moon, the sun, the stars and the universe and all life.

Note 3. The Day of Resurrection is in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground, a new sky.

Quran 18:9 Koran 18:9 Don’t you think that the people of the cave and the inscription (Raqeem, Er-Rakeem, Er-Raqim, Al-Rakim in Ephesus Turkey) that were among Our (Allaah’s) signs were a miracle (from Allaah to remind humans of their resurrection)? 

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 And then We (Allaah) awakened them (from their sleep) to ask each other a question. One said, "How long have we stayed (here sleeping)?" They said, "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day but only Our Lord (Allaah) knows how long we have stayed (here).” One of you go with this money to the town and find some good food to bring back (to the cave). Be careful and do not arouse any suspicion about you (in the town because we are still hiding from our people in this cave).

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 And then We (Allaah) awakened them (from their sleep) to ask each other a question. One said, "How long have we stayed (here sleeping)?" ....

Note 1. What will be said on the Day of Resurrection 1?

Quran 23:112 Koran 23:112 – He (Allaah) shall say (on the Day of Resurrection to those who did evil), "How many years did you stay in the Earth (in your grave meaning in death before you were resurrected)?" 

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 "... They said, "We have stayed (maybe) a day or part of a day ..."

Note 1. What will be said on the Day of Resurrection 2?

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) ..."

Note 1. There is no punishment in the grave because when people are resurrected it will seem to them that only one hour or part of a day had passed between death and resurrection in the hereafter. 

Quran 18:19 Koran 18:19 "... but only Our Lord (Allaah) knows how long we have stayed (here sleeping).”

Note 1. What will be said on the Day of Resurrection 3?

Quran 30:56 Koran 30:56 But to those to whom knowledge and faith was given, they shall say, “The truth is that you have stayed (sleeping in death) until the Day of Resurrection as Allaah decreed. ..."

Quran 18:21 Koran 18:21 And We (Allaah) caused them to be found so that they (who found them),would know that the promise of Allaah is true and that there is no doubt about (the reality of) the Hour (of the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground).

Note 1. The story of the seven people sleeping in a cave ends saying have no doubt that the hour of the Day of Resurrection is coming. 

1c. Quran 23:113, 30:55 and 79:46 are confirmed by Allaah who shows that death is like the short sleep felt by Prophet Ezra Uzair who died near Jerusalem Al-Quds and woke up 100 years later.

The story of the death of Prophet Ezra Uzair confirms Quran 30:55, 23:113 and 79:46 that resurrection from death to life on the Day of Resurrection will feel like waking up from a short sleep that was only one hour long or only as long as part of one day.

Quran 2:259 Koran 2:259 "... So Allaah caused him (Prophet Ezra Uzair) to die for a hundred years and then raised him to life and (an angel of Allaah) asked him, "How long did you remain (here sleeping)?" He (Prophet Ezra Uzair) said "I remained (here sleeping) a day or part of a day". (The angel) said, "No, you have been dead for a hundred years, ..."

Note 1. What will be said on the Day of Resurrection?

Quran 23:112 Koran 23:112 – He (Allaah) shall say (on the Day of Resurrection to those who did evil), "How many years did you stay in the Earth (in your grave meaning in death before you were resurrected)?" 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) ..."

Note 1. There is no punishment in the grave because when people are resurrected it will seem to them that only one hour or part of a day had passed between death and resurrection in the hereafter. 

Quran 30:56 Koran 30:56 But to those to whom knowledge and faith was given, they shall say, “The truth is that you have stayed (sleeping in death) until the Day of Resurrection as Allaah decreed. ..."

Quran 36:52 Koran 36:52 Saying, “O woe to us (we were sleeping for only a few hours), Who has raised us from our sleeping place (the sleeping place for the soul is in the hereafter)?” (It shall be said to them), “This is what the Most Merciful (Allaah) promised and the messengers (of Allaah) were truthful.”

Note 1. Leaving the grave is another way of saying resurrected from death to life.

In death the soul is sleeping in the hereafter but when a human is resurrected in the hereafter the last thing they can remember is that the time between their death and the Day of Resurrection feels like they were sleeping for only a few hours.

Note 2. The souls of the dead sleep under the care of Allaah in the hereafter.

There is nothing about punishment of a soul in the grave or the punishment of a soul that is sleeping in death in the hereafter.

Note 3. There is no punishment in the grave because the souls of the dead in the hereafter who are woken up do not remember anything except sleeping for one hour.

2. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Torah Taurat as a warning to the Jews but it is not there.

3. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Gospel Injil as a warning to the Christians but it is not there.

4. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Quran as a warning to the Muslims but it is not there.

4a. Quran 9:101 is not about punishment in the grave.

Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith to hide the real meaning of every verse which people have been deceived to believe is about punishment in the grave.

If punishment in the grave existed Allaah would have revealed it to the Jews in the Torah Taurat and to the Christains in the Gospel Injil.

Satan Shaitan cannot touch the Books of Allaah so Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith stories to change the understanding of the words of Allaah in the human mind.

This is the same thing Satan Shaitan did to the Jews in Yathrib 1400 years ago when Satan Shaitan whispered false ideas to corrupt the understanding of the Torah Taurat in the human mind.

Notice that Satan Shaitan cannot corrupt the Books of Allaah,

Satan Shaitan can only corrupt the understanding of the written words of Allaah by deceiving humans with false stories.

Quran 9:101 is about punishment in this world and in the hereafter.

Quran 9:101 Koran 9:101 And around you (Prophet Muhammad) among the Bedouins (nomadic Arabs) there are hypocrites, and also from (some of) the people of the town (of Yathrib Medina Madinah). They have fallen into hypocrisy. You (Prophet Muhammad) do not know them but We (Allaah) know them. We (Allaah) will punish them (the hypocrites) twice (meaning that their punishment in this world will be increased two times once for their deceiving and once for their disbelief. The first punishment will be their failure in this world when they live to see the victory of Islam overcome their opposition. The second punishment will be in their despair from the loss of the benefits in this world which they obtained through their deceiving and their hypocrisy. What does twice mean? Jews and Christians will be given their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 shows that in Quran 9:101 Allaah shall punish twice means Allaah shall give a twofold punishment meaning Allaah shall give a double portion of punishment in this world. Allaah can punish directly in this world in two ways firstly by restricting provisions such as materials and life and secondly through humans who enforce the laws of the courts. The meaning of punishing twice in Quran 9:101 is confirmed in Quran 33:30 where the punishment is doubled twofold and in Quran 33:31 where the reward is twice meaning the reward will be twofold meaning the reward will be doubled) then they will be returned (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement to Allaah in the hereafter) to a great punishment (in Hell Jahannam).

Note 1. Punish them twice in Quran 9:101 has the same meaning and uses the same word twice as in Quran 28:54 which is giving their reward twice.

Quran 28:54 Koran 28:54 They (the Jews who truly believe the Torah Taurat and the Christians who truly believe the Gospel Injil and also believe the Quran) shall be given their reward twice (in Quran 28:54 meaning twofold in Quran 34:37 meaning double in Quran 57:28) because they are steadfast (in their belief in Allaah) and they repel evil with good (deeds) and they spend (in charity) from what We (Allaah) have provided to them. (Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39).

Note 1. Jews and Christians who follow their book and also believe the Quran will receive their reward twice in the Hereafter.

The good news message from Allaah for Jews and Christians delivered 1400 years ago by Prophet Muhammad in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28.

1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran shall receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28.

2. Jews who follow the Tanakh Jewish scripture and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Torah Taurat.

3. Christians who follow the Gospels and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Gospel Injil.

4. Muslims who follow the Quran so that it agrees with the Tanakh Jewish scripture and the Gospel Injil are correctly observing the Quran.

Note 2. Twice in Quran 28:54 means a twofold reward in Quran 34:37. 

Quran 28:54 and Quran 34:37 show that in Quran 9:101 Allaah shall punish them twice means Allaah shall give them a twofold punishment.

Quran 34:37 Koran 34:37 – It is not your wealth or your children that shall bring you close to Us (Allaah), but the person who believes and does good (deeds). Theirs shall be a twofold reward (twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28) for what they (the Jews like Quran 3:113 - 3:115 and the Christians like Quran 5:82 - 5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran) did (because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39) and they (those Jews and Christians) shall live secure in the high dwellings (in Paradise Jannah).- (Continued in Quran 34:38).

Quran 34:38 Koran 34:38 (Jews and Christians who followed their Book and also believed the Quran will receive their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter however) Those (Jews and the Christians who did not believe the Quran for example if Jews did not correctly observe the Torah Taurat by keeping the Sabbath Day which is their everlasting covenant with Allaah in every generation forever or if Christians did not correctly observe the Gospel Injil where Prophet Jesus said he is not Allaah "Allaah is my Allaah and your Allaah" meaning Allaah is my Lord and your Lord and "Allaah is my Father and your Father" meaning Allaah is my Creator and your Creator in Gospel of John 20:17 and) who strive against Our (Allaah’s) revelations by trying to make them (Allaah’s revelations) to fail (for example Jesus is the son of Allaah means Jesus is the servant of Allaah delivering the message of Allaah so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of Allaah and human messengers of Allaah both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with Allaah because only Allaah knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses and angels do not know the hour meaning pray only to Allaah and not to the angel and human messengers of Allaah because those who do), they shall be brought to the punishment (of Hell Jahannam in the Hereafter).

Note 3. Reward them twice in Quran 28:54 means a twofold reward in Quran 34:37 which means a double portion meaning a double reward in Quran 57:28.

Twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 shows that in Quran 9:101 Allaah shall punish them twice means Allaah shall give them a twofold punishment meaning Allaah shall give them a double portion of punishment in this world.

Jews and Christians will be given their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 shows that in Quran 9:101 Allaah shall punish twice means Allaah shall give a twofold punishment meaning Allaah shall give a double portion of punishment in this world.

Quran 57:28 Koran 57:28 All you (the Jews and the Christians in Quran 57:27 and Quran 57:29) that believe, Fear Allaah and believe in His (Allaah’s) messenger and He (Allaah) shall give you a double portion of His (Allaah’s) mercy and provide for you a Light (of righteous knowledge meaning Jews who follow the Tanakh Jewish scripture and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Torah Taurat and meaning Christians who follow the Gospels and believe the Quran are correctly observing the Gospel Injil and Muslims who follow the Quran so that it agrees with the Tanakh Jewish scripture and the Gospel Injil are correctly observing the warning from Allaah in Quran 4:136 that whoever has no faith in Allaah’s Books has strayed far away from Allaah because the Books of Allaah are the light) by which you shall walk (on the correct path in Quran 2:40 - 2:41, Quran 4:136 and Quran 28:48 - 28:49) and (in the hereafter) He (Allaah) shall forgive you (of your past sins). Allaah is forgiving and merciful. (Jews like Quran 3:113 - 3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82 - 5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between Allaah and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39). - (Continued in Quran 57:29).

Note 1. Jews and Christians who follow their Book and also believe the Quran will be given a double reward in the hereafter.

Quran 57:29 Koran 57:29 (Jews and Christians who followed their Book and also believed the Quran will receive their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 in the hereafter) so that the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians who did not believe the Quran for example if Jews did not correctly observe the Torah Taurat by keeping the Sabbath Day which is their everlasting covenant with Allaah in every generation forever or if Christians did not correctly observe the Gospel Injil where Prophet Jesus said he is not Allaah "Allaah is my Allaah and your Allaah" meaning Allaah is my Lord and your Lord and "Allaah is my Father and your Father" meaning Allaah is my Creator and your Creator in Gospel of John 20:17 and that Jesus is the son of Allaah means Jesus is the servant of Allaah delivering the message of Allaah so his mention with angels in Gospel of Mark 13:32 and Gospel of Matthew 24:36 means that angel messengers of Allaah and human messengers of Allaah both do not know the hour meaning do not confuse angel and human messengers with Allaah because only Allaah knows the hour but His angel and human messengers like Jesus and Moses and angels do not know the hour meaning pray only to Allaah and not to the angel and human messengers of Allaah because those who do) may know (in the hereafter) that they do not have power over anything from the bounty of Allaah and that (all) the bounty is in Allaah’s hand. He gives it (Allaah's bounty) to whom He (Allaah) wills. And Allaah is the possessor of the great bounty (of Paradise Jannah).

Note 1. See Quran 57:28.

Quran 5:48 Koran 5:48 And to you (Prophet Muhammad) We (Allaah) revealed the Scripture (the Quran) with the truth that confirmed the Scripture that was before it (in the Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat) and (for you Prophet Muhammad to be) a guardian over it (the Quran). So judge between them (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what Allaah has revealed (to you Prophet Muhammad) and do not let their desires move you away from the truth that has come to you. For each (community of Jews, Christians and Muslims) We (Allaah) have appointed a divine law and a way (of religion). If Allaah willed He (Allaah) could have made you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) one community. But He (Allaah) tests you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) by what He (Allaah) has given you (in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John and the Koran Quran to show who is best in behaviour). So strive for all that is good. To Allaah you shall all return and He (Allaah) shall then inform you (in the Hereafter) about (the correctness of) the religious matters in which you (the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims) argue among each other.

Note 1. Allaah does not require humans to all be in one religion (Quran 5:48).

Note 2. Allaah does require that every religion worship only Allaah (Quran 3:85).

Note 3. Allaah says if the Jews and the Christians and others worship only Allaah like the Muslims worship only Allaah then the Jews and the Christians and others are correctly guided by Allaah (Quran 3:64). 

Note 4. Allaah commands the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims to do what is good according to what Allaah has given them in the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran to show which humans are the best in behaviour.

Note 5. Allaah says that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter every human will return to Allaah and Allaah shall inform them about the religious matters about which they argued.

Note 4. The meaning of punishing twice in Quran 9:101 is confirmed in Quran 33:30 and 33:31.

The meaning of punishing twice in Quran 9:101 is confirmed in Quran 33:30 where the punishment is doubled twofold and in Quran 33:31 where the reward is twice meaning the reward will be twofold meaning the reward will be doubled.

Quran 33:30 Koran 33:30 Wives of the Prophet (Muhammad) whoever among you commits a clear immorality, the punishment shall be doubled for her twofold (meaning the punishment will be increased twice in the hereafter), and that is easy for Allaah (to do).

Quran 33:31 Koran 33:31 And whoever of you is obedient to Allaah and His (Allaah’s) messenger (Prophet Muhammad) and does what is right, We (Allaah) shall give her reward twice (meaning her reward will be twofold meaning her reward will be doubled in the hereafter) and We (Allaah) have prepared for her an honoured provision (in the Hereafter). 

4b. Quran 40:45 and Quran 40:46 is not about punishment in the grave.

Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith to hide the real meaning of every verse which people have been deceived to believe is about punishment in the grave.

If punishment in the grave existed Allaah would have revealed it to the Jews in the Torah Taurat and to the Christains in the Gospel Injil.

Quran 40:45 is about punishment in this world.

Quran 40:46 is about punishment in the hereafter.

Quran 43:55 Koran 43:55 So, when they angered Us (Allaah), We (Allaah) punished them (the Pharaoh Firon and his army) and drowned every one of them (in the Red Sea when they were chasing after the children of Israel whom they had agreed to free but instead they again broke their word).

Quran 40:45 Koran 40:45 So Allaah protected him (Prophet Moses Musa and his people, the children of Israel) from the evils that they (the Pharaoh Firon and his people) plotted, and (Allaah separated the waters of the Red Sea to make a path between two mountains of water so that the children of Israel could escape from the Pharaoh and his Army who were chasing them. When the children of Israel had safely walked across the red sea Allaah) enveloped the people of the Pharaoh Firaun by (collapsing the two mountains of water on top of the Pharaoh and his Army giving them) the worst punishment (in this world which is the loss of their life while they were in the sin of repeatedly breaking their promise to Allaah that they would free the children of Israel).

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

Note 1. Quran 40:46 is in the hereafter.

The meaning of Quran 40:46 is the same as the meaning of Quran 46:34.

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Note 2. Quran 40:46 is Quran 104:5 

Quran 104:5 Koran 104:5 What can explain to you what the crusher is?

Quran 104:6 Koran 104:6 It is the (crushing) fire (in Hell Jahannam) that is ignited by Allaah (on those in whose hearts there are evil deeds).

4b-1. What is Quran 40:46 referring to?

Quran 40:46 is part of the story of Hell Jahannam in Quran chapter 40 in Quran 40:6, 40:7, 40:10, 40:11, 40:41, 40:43, 40:46, 40:47, 40:48, 40:49, 40:50, 40:52, 40:60, 40:71, 40:72 and 40:76.

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

Quran 52:13 Koran 52:13 On the Day (of Judgement when) they shall be thrust into the fire of Hell Jahannam (the angels shall say),

Quran 52:14 Koran 52:14 “This is the Fire which you used to deny (really existed).”

Quran 52:15 Koran 52:15 “Is this (what you see now in the Hereafter something that is) magic (deception, fake) or do you not see (it)?”

Quran 52:16 Koran 52:16 (Enter Hell Jahannam now and) burn in there and whether you are patient or impatient it shall make no difference for you (in the hereafter like patience could have helped you in your first life on the Earth) because (now) you are being paid (by Allaah) for what (wrong doing) you used to do (in your first life on the Earth).

Quran 89:22 Koran 89:22 And your Lord (Allaah) has come (to give judgement) and the angels are (lined up) in ranks.

Quran 89:23 Koran 89:23 And on that Day (of Judgement) Hell Jahannam is brought near (to see) and then the human (who did evil) shall remember (the evil they did) but how shall that remembrance be (of any help to them in the hereafter because on that day they shall be responsible for the evil that they did).

Quran 89:24 Koran 89:24 The person shall say, “I wish I had sent (good deeds during my life) before (my death as an investment) for my (everlasting) life (in the hereafter).

Quran 89:25 Koran 89:25 On that Day (of Judgement) no one can punish (as severely) as He (Allaah) shall punish (the wrongdoer).

Quran 89:26 Koran 89:26 And no one can contain (as strongly) as He (Allaah) shall contain (the wrongdoer in Hell Jahannam).

4b-2. Quran 40:46 in Quran chapter 40.

Quran 40:41 Koran 40:41 "And, my people, How is it that I call you to salvation (in Paradise Jannah by advising you to do what is good) while you call me to the fire (in Hell Jahannam by advising me to do what is evil)?” 

Quran 40:43 Koran 40:43 “What you invite me to (pray to) has no claim (to have any power to hear prayer) in the world or in the Hereafter (because only Allaah the creator can hear prayer. Creations have no power to hear prayer) and our return shall be to Allaah (the creator), and the wrong doers shall be the companions of the fire (in Hell Jahannam in the hereafter).”

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

Quran 40:47 Koran 40:47 And when they argue with each other in the Fire (of Hell Jahannam), the weak shall say to those who were arrogant (leaders), “We were following you so can you remove from us some of the (punishment of the) Fire?”

4c. Quran 52:47 is not about punishment in the grave.

To the Christians Satan Shaitan whispers Allaah is three in false stories but the Gospel Injil says Allaah is one.

To the Muslims Satan Shaitan whispers humans have three lives in false hadith stories about life in the grave but the Quran says humans live twice; once in this world and once on the Day of Resurrection.

Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith stories to hide the real meaning of every verse which people have been deceived to believe is about punishment in the grave.

If  punishment in the grave existed Allaah would have revealed it to the Jews in the Torah Taurat and to the Christains in the Gospel Injil and to the Muslims in the Quran.

Quran 52:47 is about the punishment before the Day of Resurrection and Judgement meaning the punishment in the life of this world such as in Quran 9:101, Quran 40:45 and Quran 43:55.  

Quran 52:47 Koran 52:47 For those who do wrong, there is a punishment before that (Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is the punishment in this life). But most of them (the wrong doers) do not know (they may be punished in this life and in the hereafter).

Quran 9:101 Koran 9:101 And around you (Prophet Muhammad) among the Bedouins (nomadic Arabs) there are hypocrites, and also from (some of) the people of the town (of Yathrib Medina Madinah). They have fallen into hypocrisy. You (Prophet Muhammad) do not know them but We (Allaah) know them. We (Allaah) will punish them (the hypocrites) twice (meaning that their punishment in this world will be increased two times once for their deceiving and once for their disbelief. The first punishment will be their failure in this world when they live to see the victory of Islam overcome their opposition. The second punishment will be in their despair from the loss of the benefits in this world which they obtained through their deceiving and their hypocrisy. What does twice mean? Jews and Christians will be given their reward twice in Quran 28:54, twofold in Quran 34:37 and double in Quran 57:28 shows that in Quran 9:101 Allaah shall punish twice means Allaah shall give a twofold punishment meaning Allaah shall give a double portion of punishment in this world. Allaah can punish directly in this world in two ways firstly by restricting provisions such as materials and life and secondly through humans who enforce the laws of the courts. The meaning of punishing twice in Quran 9:101 is confirmed in Quran 33:30 where the punishment is doubled twofold and in Quran 33:31 where the reward is twice meaning the reward will be twofold meaning the reward will be doubled) then they will be returned (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement to Allaah in the hereafter) to a great punishment (in Hell Jahannam).

Quran 40:45 Koran 40:45 So Allaah protected him (Prophet Moses Musa and his people, the children of Israel) from the evils that they (the Pharaoh Firon and his people) plotted, and (Allaah separated the waters of the Red Sea to make a path between two mountains of water so that the children of Israel could escape from the Pharaoh and his Army who were chasing them. When the children of Israel had safely walked across the red sea Allaah) enveloped the people of the Pharaoh Firaun by (collapsing the two mountains of water on top of the Pharaoh and his Army giving them) the worst punishment (in this world which is the loss of their life while they were in the sin of repeatedly breaking their promise to Allaah that they would free the children of Israel).

Quran 43:55 Koran 43:55 So, when they angered Us (Allaah), We (Allaah) punished them (the Pharaoh Firon and his army) and drowned every one of them (in the Red Sea when they were chasing after the children of Israel whom they had agreed to free but instead they again broke their word).

4d. Quran 40:11 is not about punishment in the grave.

Quran 40:11 Koran 40:11 They (who are in Hell fire Jahannam) shall say, “Our Lord, You (Allaah) gave us death twice (meaning we were lifeless before sexual conception and at death as explained in Quran 2:28), and You (Allaah) gave us life twice (at sexual conception and at resurrection). Now we confess our sins. Is there any way to go out (of Hell fire Jahannam)?

Quran 2:28 Koran 2:28 How can you disbelieve in Allaah? You were dead (you did not exist) and He (Allaah) gave you life. Then He (Allaah) shall give you death, then again He (Allaah) shall bring you to life (in the hereafter) and to Him (Allaah) you shall return.

4e. Quran 23:99 and Quran 23:100 are not talking in the grave.

Quran 23:99 Koran 23:99 When death comes to one of them (who were wicked on the earth), he says (in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement of Hell for the wicked), “My Lord (Allaah) send me back (to life on the earth),” 

Quran 23:100 Koran 23:100 "So that I may do righteous (deeds) in what is left behind (on the earth because my deeds on the earth were bad)", No, it is a word (of regret that) he speaks (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement of Hell for the wicked because on that Day the Earth and the first creation shall not exist except for what has been resurrected so it will be too late for him to change his behaviour) and behind him is a barrier (that does not allow the dead to return to life meaning the soul is in the care of Allaah) until the day when they (who died) are raised (back to life in the Hereafter meaning every human has only one life on the earth in which they can choose good or evil behaviour).

Note 1. Every person will wake up on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, new land, new ground in the Hereafter and testify that Barzakh felt like nothing but a short sleep in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. 

When humans are resurrected back to life it will seem to them that only one hour of time had passed between their death and their resurrection.

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth) …”

Note 2. The dead cannot return to this earth.

Quran 21:95 Koran 21:95 The people whom We (Allaah) destroyed (both the righteous and the wrongdoer who have died) can never return to this world (because their souls have completed their test and are now in the care of Allaah as each soul waits for the Day of Resurrection when each soul will be given a new physical body in the hereafter on a new earth, a new ground, a new land).

Note 3. On the Day of Resurrection the dead will not be able to return to this earth because this earth and the sun and the moon and the stars will have ended.

Note 4. The Day of Resurrection is on a new earth, a new land, a new ground in the hereafter.

Note 5. The soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth, a new land, a new ground in the hereafter.

4f. Quran 63:10 and Quran 63:11 are not talking in the grave.

Quran 63:10 Koran 63:10 And spend (in the way of Allaah) from what We (Allaah) have provided to you before death comes to one of you who says (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement of Hell for the wicked), “My Lord (Allaah) if only you would delay (death for) me for a short time so that I can (correct myself and) give charity and be among the righteous.” 

Quran 63:11 Koran 63:11 But Allaah does not delay (death for) any soul when its time (of death) has come and Allaah knows what you do (meaning every human has only one life on the earth in which they can choose good or evil behaviour).

4g. Quran 32:12 is not talking in the grave.

Quran 32:11 Koran 32:11 Say, “You shall be taken by the angel of death who is responsible for you. Then to your Lord (Allaah) you shall be returned.

Note 1. When a human dies the soul is raised up to Allaah by the angel of death.

The angel of death will take every soul to the separation or barrier called Barzakh which is the hereafter for souls whose bodies have died on the earth.

Quran 32:12 Koran 32:12 If you could only see when the guilty bow their heads before their Lord (Allaah, saying on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement in Hell Jahannam), “Our Lord (Allaah) we have seen (You Allaah) and heard (You Allaah) so send us back (to the world) and we shall be righteous because now we believe (in You Allaah).

Note 1. On the Day of Resurrection the old earth in the old first creation will not exist meaning on the Day of Resurrection only the new second creation will exist meaning it will not be possible to send anyone back to the old earth. 

Quran 32:13 Koran 32:13 And if We (Allaah) had willed, We (Allaah) could have given every soul its guidance (to Paradise) but the word from Me (Allaah, that evildoers shall be punished) shall take effect and I (Allaah) shall fill Hell with (the evildoers from) both the jinn and the humans. 

Note 1. After death punishment is in Hell not in the grave.

Quran 32:14 Koran 32:14 So taste (the punishment for the evil you did). Since you forgot the meeting of your day (in this Day of Judgement then so too do) We (Allaah) forget (any mercy for) you. Taste the everlasting punishment (in Hell) because of what you used to do (of evil in the world).

4h. Quran 32:21 is not about punishment in the grave.

Quran 32:21 Koran 32:21 And certainly We (Allaah) shall make them (the stone idol worshippers in Makkah Arabia) taste the nearer punishment (in this life) before the greater (punishment in the Hereafter) so that they might (through punishment during their life understand the warning from Allaah and) return (to the path of Allaah’s guidance).

4i. Quran 41:30 and Quran 41:31 are not talking in the grave.

Quran 41:29 Koran 41:29 And (in the Hereafter) those who disbelieve shall say, “Our Lord, Show us those who misled us among the jinn and humans. We shall place them underneath our feet so that they may be among the lowest (to suffer in the deepest part of Hell fire Jahannam).”

Note 1. Quran 41:29 is in the hereafter.

Quran 41:30 Koran 41:30 For those who say, “Our Lord is Allaah” and remain on the correct path (to Allaah), the angels shall descend on them (in the Hereafter), saying, “Do not fear nor grieve but receive the good news of Paradise Jannah which you were promised.”

Note 1. Quran 41:30 is in the hereafter.

Quran 41:31 Koran 41:31 “We (angels) are your protecting friends in the life of the world and in the Hereafter. There (in the Hereafter) you shall have what your souls desire and whatever you prayed for.”

Note 1. Today humans do not see or hear angels who are working in this world because the days of the prophethood have ended.

Angels as decreed by Allaah can make humans feel calmness or distressed in this world.

Note 2. The angel of death talks in the Quran which is a reward when a human feels calm at the time of death or a punishment when a human feels distressed at the time of death.

Note 3. In Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55 and Quran 79:46 every human will feel they slept for one hour or part of one day between the time of their death and their resurrection.

Note 4. In Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55 and Quran 79:46 the time between death and resurrection is like a very brief short sleep.

Note 5. On the Day of Resurrection every human will testify that the time between death and resurrection felt like a one hour sleep or a sleep during a small part of one day.

4j. Quran 79:1 and Quran 79:2 are not in the grave.

Quran 79:1 Koran 79:1 (An oath by Allaah that this is the truth, swearing) by those (angels) who violently extract (from the body the unwilling soul at the time of death of those who disbelieved and who did not expected to see the angel of death).

Quran 79:2 Koran 79:2 And by those (angels) who easily remove (from the body the willing soul of those who believed and who expected to see the angel of death).

5. What does "on the Day of Resurrection people will come out of their graves" mean?

The souls of every dead human and dead jinn and dead others are in heaven they are not in a grave.

Heaven is the home of the soul forever.

The grave is the home of a dead body which becomes dust.

The words "people will come out of their graves on the Day of Resurrection" means people who were dead will be brought back to life.

People will not really come out of their graves because all creation including graves will be destroyed before the Day of Resurrection.

People will not really come out of their graves because the Day of Resurrection is in the hereafter.

People will not really come out of their graves because the physical body that is dust in the grave is different to the new physical body that will be given to each soul in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection.

To understand the meaning of the words "people will come out of their graves" look at these examples; 

a. In the Torah Taurat humans are created in the image of Allaah meaning each human has been given a portion of the ability to be kind and merciful to others in the way of Allaah, in the cause of Allaah, in the path of Allaah and in the example of Allaah.

Quran 82:7 Koran 82:7 Who created you and shaped you (in the womb through Allaah’s process of evolution, see Quran 71:14) and proportioned you (balanced you physically and balanced you in mind and heart with a portion of the ability to show mercy and kindness to others)? 

b. In the Torah Taurat Allaah created the creation in six days and rested on the seventh day meaning Allaah created the creation in six days and (decreed that the children of Israel be) rested on the seventh day (as a remembrance of what Allaah had done).

c. In the Gospel Injil Jesus Isa is the son of Allaah meaning Jesus Isa is the servant of Allaah.

d. In the Koran Quran Allaah sits on a throne meaning Allaah rules over the creation.

e. The words in the Quran that people will come out of their graves and the words in the Gospel Injil that Jesus Isa is the son of Allaah and the words in the Torah Taurat that humans are created in the image of Allaah and that Allaah created the earth in six days and rested on the seventh day and the words in the Quran that Allaah sits on a throne are only correctly understood when they are correctly explained.

f. In the Quran the words "people will come out of their graves on the Day of Resurrection" means people who were dead will be brought back to life.

g. In the Quran the words "people will come out of their graves" means they will be resurrected on a new earth, new land, new ground in the hereafter on the Day of Resurrection.

h. In the Quran the words "people will come out of their graves" does not mean people will actually come out of a grave.

In the Quran the words "Allaah sits on a throne" does not mean that Allaah really sits on a chair.

In the Gospel Injil the words "Jesus is the son of Allaah" does not mean Jesus is really a biological son of Allaah.

In the Torah Taurat "human are created in the image of Allaah" does not mean that Allaah looks like a human.

In the Torah Taurat "Allaah created the earth in six days and rested on the seventh day" does not mean that Allaah was tired and needed to rest.

Jewish Hebrew Bible Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day Allaah finished His work which He had made (in six days); and He rested on the seventh day (Allaah has no need to rest so this means that Allaah completed all His creation in 6 days and commanded humans to remember Allaah when humans rest on the seventh day as a remembrance of Allaah) from all His (Allaah’s) work which He (Allaah) had made.

Quran 36:51 Koran 36:51 And the Horn Trumpet shall be blown (a second time by an angel to signal the second command that is decreed by Allaah) and from (out of) the graves they (the resurrected people) shall quickly go to their Lord (Allaah).

Note 1. Leaving the grave is another way of saying resurrected from death to life.

In death the soul is sleeping in the hereafter but when a human is resurrected in the hereafter the last thing they can remember is that the time between their death and the Day of Resurrection feels like they were sleeping for only a few hours.

Quran 36:52 Koran 36:52 Saying, “O woe to us (we were sleeping for only a few hours), Who has raised us from our sleeping place (the sleeping place for the soul is in the hereafter)?” (It shall be said to them), “This is what the Most Merciful (Allaah) promised and the messengers (of Allaah) were truthful.”

Note 1. Leaving the grave is another way of saying resurrected from death to life.

In death the soul is sleeping in the hereafter but when a human is resurrected in the hereafter the last thing they can remember is that the time between their death and the Day of Resurrection feels like they were sleeping for only a few hours.

Note 2. The souls of the dead sleep under the care of Allaah in the hereafter.

There is nothing in the Books of Allaah about punishment of a soul in the grave or the punishment of a soul that is sleeping in death in the hereafter.

Note 3. There is no punishment in the grave because the souls of the dead in the hereafter who are woken up do not remember anything except sleeping for a few hours.

6. Punishment and reward is experienced by a soul when the soul is inside a human body or on the Day of Resurrection when the human soul is given 

a new physical body that can feel punishment or reward.

Before the Day of Resurrection a soul can only feel pain when the soul is inside a human body.

When a soul is raised to heaven and to the care of Allaah that soul will not experience anything until it is given a new physical body on the Day of Resurrection.

Quran 79:1 Koran 79:1 (An oath by Allaah that this is the truth, swearing) by those (angels) who violently extract (from the body the unwilling soul at the time of death of those who disbelieved and who did not expected to see the angel of death).

Quran 79:2 Koran 79:2 And by those (angels) who easily remove (from the body the willing soul of those who believed and who expected to see the angel of death).

6a. The soul is in heaven during sleep and after death.

During sleep the human cannot remember anything until the soul is returned from heaven to awaken the sleeping body.

During death the human cannot remember anything until the soul is given a new physical body that can feel punishment or reward on the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter on a new earth, a new land, a new ground after the end of the first creation.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 Allaah takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep. He (Allaah) keeps those (souls) for which He (Allaah) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (after which they return to sleep again or die). In this are signs (of Allaah) for people who think.

6b. On the Day of Resurrection it will seem to every human both the believers and the disbelievers that they stayed an  hour or part of a day sleeping in death on the Earth before they were resurrected in the hereafter.

The Day of Judgement is near for every human because on the Day of Resurrection it will seem that the time between death and resurrection was very short as if only a few hours or part of a day had passed.

Quran 23:112 Koran 23:112 – He (Allaah) shall say (on the Day of Resurrection to those who did evil), "How many years did you stay in the Earth (in your grave meaning in death before you were resurrected)?" 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

Quran 23:114 Koran 23:114 (On the Day of Resurrection) He (Allaah) shall say , “You stayed for a brief time (in death before you were resurrected in the hereafter meaning that the time between death and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter was short meaning the promise of Allaah that the hour was near was the truth).” 

Note 1. Belief in Allaah without good deeds is a false belief in Allaah.

Satan Shaitan believes in Allaah but it is a false belief because Satan Shaitan does not do good deeds.

Quran 6:158 Koran 6:158 "... belief in it (Allaah and the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) shall not help any soul …. if in belief (he or she) did not earn good (by doing righteous deeds in their life). ....” 

Quran 41:8 Koran 41:8 “For those who believe and do good deeds, for them is an everlasting reward (in Paradise Jannah).”

Quran 23:115 Koran 23:115 Did you (the evil doer) think that We (Allaah) have created you for nothing (meaning, for no purpose), and that you would not be returned to Us (Allaah on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement)?

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 30:56 Koran 30:56 But to those to whom knowledge and faith was given, they shall say, “The truth is that you have stayed (sleeping in death) until the Day of Resurrection as Allaah decreed. This is the Day of Resurrection, but you did not know (that the time between death and resurrection feels like it is only an hour long or as long as a part of a day because you did not believe in Allaah, your creator when you were in the world).”

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an an evening or a morning.

7. In the Quran there is punishment in the world and on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

Quran 52:46 Koran 52:46 (It shall be) a Day (of Judgement) in which their planning (against Allaah and Allaah’s messenger) shall not benefit them (in the hereafter), nor shall they be helped (by anyone including their stone idols).

Quran 52:47 Koran 52:47 For those who do wrong, there is a punishment before that (Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is the punishment in this life). But most of them (the wrong doers) do not know (they may be punished in this life and in the hereafter).

7a. The punishment of Allaah in the world.

Quran 8:50 Koran 8:50 If you could have seen when the angels took the souls of those who disbelieved (among the stone idol worshippers from Makkah at the battle of Badr), striking their faces and their backs (to violently remove their unwilling soul from their body at the time of death in Quran 47:27 and Quran 79:1) and (saying), “Taste the punishment (in this life of your death as explained in Quran 52:47” which leads to the punishment) of the blazing fire (in Hell Jahannam for the evil doer as explained in Quran 46:34). – (Continued in Quran 8:51).

Note 1. Quran 47:27 Koran 47:27 How (shall it be for those who disbelieved) when the angels take them at death and strike their faces and their backs (to violently remove their unwilling soul from their body at the time of death as explained in Quran 79:1)?

Quran 79:1 Koran 79:1 (An oath by Allaah that this is the truth, swearing) by those (angels) who violently extract (from the body the unwilling soul at the time of death of those who disbelieved and who did not expected to see the angel of death).

Quran 52:47 Koran 52:47 For those who do wrong, there is a punishment before that (Day of Resurrection and Judgement which is the punishment in this life). But most of them (the wrong doers) do not know (they may be punished in this life and in the hereafter).

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Note 2. Only when the soul is in the human body on the earth before death can a human feel pain or hear words on this earth.

Note 3. Death comes when the soul has been removed from the human body by the angel of death.

Note 4. The human body is buried in the ground and becomes dust in the earth.

Note 5. The soul sleeps in the hereafter until the Day of Resurrection.

Note 6. When every human soul is given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection Allaah tells us in Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55 and Quran 79:46 that it will feel like only one hour of sleep or part of one day of sleep had passed between the time of death on this earth and the Day of Resurrection on a new earth in the hereafter.

Note 7. When this first creation ends and all humans are resurrected into a new creation in the hereafter every resurrected human will say in Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55 and Quran 79:46 “it feels like only one hour of sleep or part of one day of sleep has passed” between the time of their death on this earth and the Day of Resurrection on a new earth in the hereafter.

Note 8. Taste the punishment of the blazing fire means in the hereafter the home of the evil doer is Hell Jahannam.

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

Note 9. Striking their faces and their backs means to violently remove an unwilling soul from the body at the time of death as explained in Quran 79:1.

Before the Day of Resurrection a soul can only feel pain when the soul is inside a human body.

When a soul is raised to heaven and to the care of Allaah that soul will not experience anything until it is given a new physical body on the Day of Resurrection.

Quran 47:27 Koran 47:27 How (shall it be for those who disbelieved) when the angels take them at death and strike their faces and their backs (to violently remove their unwilling soul from their body at the time of death as explained in Quran 79:1)?

Quran 79:1 Koran 79:1 (An oath by Allaah that this is the truth, swearing) by those (angels) who violently extract (from the body the unwilling soul at the time of death of those who disbelieved and who did not expected to see the angel of death).

Quran 79:2 Koran 79:2 And by those (angels) who easily remove (from the body the willing soul of those who believed and who expected to see the angel of death).\

Quran 8:51 Koran 8:51 – Because of what their own hands (the stone idol worshippers from Makkah at the battle of Badr) have done (that was evil). (For that evil they have been judged by Allaah) so know that Allaah is not unjust to His (Allaah’s) servants.

Quran 8:52 Koran 8:52 Like the way of Pharaoh's Firon’s people and those before them, they disbelieved the revelations of Allaah and Allaah punished them for their crimes (against Allaah). Allaah is strong and severe in punishment.

7b. The punishment of Allaah in the hereafter on the Day of Judgement.

There is nothing in the Torah Taurat or Gospel Injil or Quran about punishment in the grave because Allaah has revealed that after death the Day of Resurrection is the Day when all humans will account for their behaviour.

The Day of Resurrection is the Day of Accounting.

Quran 46:34 Koran 46:34 And on the Day (of Judgement) when those who disbelieve are exposed to the Fire (in Hell Jahannam they shall be asked), “Is this not real? They shall reply, “Yes, by (the name of) our Lord (it is).” He (an angel guarding Hell Jahannam) shall say, “Then taste the punishment (of Hell Jahannam) that you disbelieved (really existed).” 

Quran 40:46 Koran 40:46 The Fire (in Hell Jahannam, what can I tell you about it?); they (who are punished for their evil behaviour in the world) are exposed to it morning and evening (meaning all day and all night in the hereafter) and on the appointed time on the Day (of Judgment in the hereafter it shall be said), "Put the people of the Pharaoh Firon in the severest punishment (of the fire in Hell Jahannam)."

8. Punishment in the grave comes from the hadith stories of humans.

Allaah tells us in the Quran and the Gospel Injil and the Torah Taurat that after death the Day of Resurrection and Judgement is the day every deed both good and bad is judged.

The Day of Resurrection and Judgement is the Day of Accounting when every person will account for their behaviour in the world.

Allaah tells us in the Quran that on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement a record shall be given to each person in their left hand if they are to be punished or in their right hand if they are to be rewarded.

This record will show every deed a person did in their life as proof that Allaah’s judgement of them is correct.

If punishment in the grave existed then there would be no need for a Day of Resurrection because dead people would already be resurrected to feel punishment.

If punishment in the grave existed then there would be no need for a Day of Judgement because the dead would already be judged and punished.

The grave is the home of a dead body.

The soul is not inside a dead body.

The soul is taken out of the human body by the angel of death and raised to heaven and to Allaah.

When a human sleeps or dies their soul is raised to heaven and to Allaah.

The grave containing the human body decomposes into dust in the earth. 

The soul in heaven exists forever because Allaah cares for each human soul until they are given a new physical body that can feel pain or reward on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

In the Quran Allaah tells humans that death is like a short sleep.

There is no punishment in the grave because when people are resurrected it will seem to them that only one hour or part of a day had passed between death and resurrection in the hereafter.

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning.

Note 1. Why is it said that the Day of Judgement is near?

The Day of Judgement is near for every human because on the Day of Resurrection it will seem that the time between death and resurrection was very short as if only a few hours of sleep or part of a day of sleeping had passed.

Quran 54:1 Koran 54:1 The hour (of the End of the Earth which is followed by the Resurrection and Judgement in the hereafter) comes nearer and (when the hour comes) the Moon shall be split (into pieces in the same way as the Earth shall be split into pieces as small as dust and all creation shall be destroyed and its creatures resurrected on a new Earth, a new land, a new ground in the hereafter on that Day of Resurrection and Judgement).

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

9. What to do with hadith stories that contradict the Quran?

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it.

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it.

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the protected words of Prophet Muhammad.

2. Fabricated hadith 2. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sahih Bukhari, Vol 8, Book 73, Hadith 78.

Sahih Bukhari, Vol 2, Book 23, Hadith 443 (similar).

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

Allaah’s Apostle passed by two graves and said, "Both of them (persons in the grave) are being tortured, and they are not being tortured for a major sin. This one used not to save himself from being soiled with his urine, and the other used to go about with calumnies (among the people to rouse hostilities, e.g., one goes to a person and tells him that so-and-so says about him such-and-such evil things). The Prophet then asked for a green leaf of a date-palm tree, split it into two pieces and planted one on each grave and said, "It is hoped that their punishment may be abated till those two pieces of the leaf get dried.

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

2. Giving power to the supernatural when all power belongs to Allaah is from the whispering of Satan Shaitan.

The belief that a human can stop what Allaah has decreed by spitting on a leaf is not in the religion of Islam but is called superstition which is a forbidden belief in Islam.

Superstition is deception spread by the whispering of Satan Shaitan in his war against Allaah by misleading humans away from Allaah and away from Allaah’s teachings in the Quran.

Satan Shaitan leads humans away from the power of prayer and Allaah and towards belief in the power of superstition. 

3. Fabricated hadith 3. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave and the Dajjal.

Sahih Muslim 2/93.

Sahih Muslim 588.

Saheeh Muslim, 588.

Al-Bukhaari, 1311.

Abu Daawood no. 983.

Narrated by al-Nasa’i, al-Nasaa’i, 1293 (similar).

From Abu Hurayrah who said:

The Prophet said, “When one of you finishes the last tashahhud (testimony of faith in prayer), he should seek refuge in Allaah from four things: From the Punishment of Hell, from the Punishment of the Grave, from the trials of life and death, and from the evil trials of the Maseehud-Dajjaal (Anti-Christ).

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

2. This hadith is fabricated because the Dajjal is part of the story that Prophet Jesus Isa will return to this earth which contradicts Quran 3:144, 5:75, 5:117, 21:95, 33:40 and 39:42.

Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a (human) messenger (of Allaah) and (all the human) messengers (of Allaah) before him (Prophet Muhammad) have passed away (meaning died) ….”

Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..

Quran 5:75 Koran 5:75 The Messiah (Jesus Isa), son of Mary (Maryam), was no more than a (human) messenger (of Allaah) and (all the human) messengers (of Allaah) before him (Prophet Jesus Isa) have passed away (meaning died) … they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today  ..." 

Note 1. "They Mary and Jesus used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead. 

Quran 5:117 Koran 5:117 I (Prophet Jesus Isa) told them (the Jews in Judea today Israel and Palestine) only what You (Allaah) commanded me, (saying), “Worship Allaah, (Allaah is) my Lord and your Lord." I was a witness (that I said these words) to them (three days after the crucifixion as proof that Jesus Isa was alive and living on the earth after the crucifixion meaning no one killed him on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross in Quran 4:157. Allaah saved his life on the cross with sleep so that his body did not move and everyone though he was dead but he was only sleeping on the cross when his soul was raised to Allaah in Quran 4:158. The soul of Jesus Isa was returned to the earth three days after the crucifixion to wake up his sleeping body in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117,Quran 19:36 and Quran 39:42 so that Jesus could teach the people that Jesus is not Allaah) when I lived among them (the children of Israel in Judea, today in Israel and Palestine) and when You (Allaah) raised me (my soul by the angel of death in Quran 39:42 and by comparing Quran 3:144 with Quran 5:75 and in Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 and confirmed in all the four Injil of Isa the Gospels of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that are with the Christians today as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran) You (Allaah) watched over them (the Jews in Judea 2000 years ago today in Israel and Palestine and You Allaah know everything the children of Israel said and did). You (Allaah) are the Witness to all things.

Note 1. Jesus Isa in the hereafter will testify to Allaah that he was raised by the angel of death only one time after he had lived among the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

Note 2. Jesus Isa in the hereafter will testify to Allaah that after he was raised by the angel of death Allaah watched over the children of Israel.

Note 3. Jesus Isa and Allaah say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because Quran 33:40 prohibit any prophet from returning to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad.

Note 4. Jesus Isa and Allaah say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because Allaah through Jesus Isa have already warned humans 2000 years ago not to believe anyone who says Jesus Isa has returned to this earth in the Gospel of Mark 13:5 – 13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23.

Gospel of Mark 13:5 (Jesus Isa foretold what will happen in future after Jesus Isa has left the Earth) and Jesus Isa proceeded to tell them, "See that no one misleads you.

Gospel of Mark 13:6 Many will come in my name (Jesus Isa), saying, 'I am He (Jesus Isa),' and they will deceive many. 

Gospel of Mark 13:21 And at that time (when people will claim to be Jesus Isa), if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Messiah (Jesus Isa)' or, 'Look, there (is the messiah Jesus Isa)!' do not believe it. 

Gospel of Mark 13:22 For false Messiahs and false prophets will appear, and they will do signs and miracles, trying to deceive, if possible, the elect (the righteous). 

Gospel of Mark 13:23 But you, you be watchful; I (Jesus Isa) have told you everything ahead of time (before it happens). 

Note 5. Jesus Isa and Allaah say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because Quran 21:95 prohibit humans from returning to this earth after their death.

Quran 21:95 Koran 21:95 The people whom We (Allaah) destroyed (both the righteous and the wrongdoer who have died) can never return to this world (because their souls have completed their test and are now in the care of Allaah as each soul waits for the Day of Resurrection when each soul will be given a new physical body in the hereafter on a new earth, a new ground, a new land).

Note 1. After Allaah saved Prophet Jesus Isa from death on the cross Prophet Jesus Isa lived in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and Prophet Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago.

Quran 33:40 Koran 33:40 Prophet Muhammad is not the father of any man among you (meaning after the death of Prophet Muhammad no person can claim to inherit religious leadership of the Muslims based on their relationship with Prophet Muhammad as a way to mislead humans away from what Prophet Muhammad has revealed), but he (Prophet Muhammad) is the messenger of Allaah and the Seal (the closure) of the Prophets (of Allaah on this Earth meaning Prophet Muhammad is the end of the Prophets of Allaah on this Earth meaning after the death of Prophet Muhammad no prophet will be sent to this earth so that no person can claim to be a prophet as a way to mislead humans away from what Prophet Muhammad has revealed. When something is sealed it is ended and finished and closed. The time of the prophets on this earth ended and finished and closed with the death of Prophet Muhammad. Quran 33:40 confirms the warning from Allaah 2000 years ago that was delivered by Prophet Jesus Isa "not to believe anyone who says Prophet Jesus Isa has returned to this earth" in the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 where Allaah warns that Satan Shaitan "will deceive many to believe that Prophet Jesus Isa has returned to this earth." In Quran 33:40 prophets are prohibited from coming to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. There is nothing in the Quran about the Mahdi Mehdi or Dajjal Dijjal or the return of Prophet Jesus Isa to this earth because it contradicts the word of Allaah in the Gospel Injil and in the Quran. Satan Shaitan cannot change the protected Books of Allaah. Satan Shaitan can only hide and distort and corrupt the word of Allaah in the human mind by whispering false hadith stories that contradict the Books of Allaah. The deception of Satan Shaitan is so good that many people cannot see any contradiction between such false hadith stories and the words of Allaah in the Quran) and Allaah is aware of all things. (Allaah saved the life of Prophet Jesus Isa with sleep in Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 making everyone believe Jesus Isa was dead on the cross because his body did not move and Allaah returned the soul of Jesus Isa to this earth to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion in Quran 39:42 so that Prophet Jesus Isa could deliver the message in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 that Jesus Isa is not Allaah by saying "Allaah is my Allaah and your Allaah" meaning "Allaah is my Father and your Father" meaning Allaah is my Creator and your Creator meaning Allaah is my Master and your Master meaning Allaah is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed Jesus Isa on the cross or crucified Jesus Isa to death on the cross until the natural death of “Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam who both use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75 and in Quran 3:144 where “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 7:6 Allaah shall question the messengers of Allaah and in Quran 5:117 Prophet Jesus Isa will testify to Allaah on the Day of Judgement that Prophet Jesus Isa died only one time when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine where he was raised only one time by the angel of death as confirmation of the truthfulness of both the Quran and the Gospel Injil which both confirm that Allaah saved the life of Jesus Isa on the cross and that Jesus Isa after the crucifixion told the people that Jesus Isa is not Allaah and continued to tell them Jesus Isa is not Allaah until his natural death 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine. All the fabricated hadith stories about Prophet Jesus Isa returning to this earth in the time of the Mahdi Mehdi and the Dajjal Dijjal all contradict both the Quran and the Gospel Injil. These fabricated hadith stories are proof of the truth of the warnings from Allaah in the Gospel Injil not to believe anyone who says Jesus Isa has returned to this earth in the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 and the truth of Quran 33:40 where Allaah has told humans that the time of the prophets of Allaah on this earth is sealed meaning closed meaning no prophet will be allowed to come to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. The Quran confirms the Gospel Injil meaning Quran 33:40 confirms the Injil of Isa by Mark Gospel of Mark 13:5 -13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23 as proof that no one can change the written word of Allaah. Fabricated hadith stories about Jesus Isa returning to this earth contradict the Quran and the Gospel Injil and show how Satan Shaitan only has power to distort hide and corrupt the meaning of the written words of Allaah inside the human mind. Satan Shaitan gave the same deception to Christians in the false hadith story that Jesus Isa is Allaah which contradicts everything that is in the four Injil of Isa Gospel of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that is with the Christians today as proof that Allaah has protected the Gospel Injil which is with the Christians today because no one can change the written word of Allaah. Humans who live for 100 years think they have more wisdom than Satan Shaitan who has deceived for millions of years. The deception of Satan Shaitan is so good that some people cannot see any contradiction between what Satan Shaitan has whispered in unprotected false hadith stories and what is said in the protected Books of Allaah the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran which are with all humans today. Some people believe false hadith stories about Jesus Isa returning to this earth and other people believe false hadith stories that Jesus is Allaah and some people do not believe all the Books of Allaah the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran which are with all humans today. Satan Shaitan whispers to people in every religion “do not believe any book except your book” because Satan Shaitan knows that people who have no faith in all the Books of Allaah that are with all humans today are the easiest people for Satan Shaitan to deceive and this is confirmed in Quran 4:136 where Allaah has warned that whoever has no faith in Allaah’s Books has strayed far away from Allaah. In this way Allaah shows who has faith that Allaah has protected all His Books that are with all humans today and who believe that the books of Allaah have been corrupted except their own book. The proof of Allaah is that the Torah Taurat with the Jews today and the Gospel Injil with the Christians today and the Quran with the Muslims today in Quran 3:3 are protected as confirmed in Quran 6:115 and Quran 10:64. Those in every religion who believe only their Book is protected and all other humans have corrupted Books unknowingly give the proof that Allaah does not exist because Allaah did not protect His word in all the Books of Allaah which are with humans today contradicting Quran 2:41, Quran 3:93, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48 and Quran 5:68 as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA ).

Note 1. If Prophet Jesus Isa returned to this earth Prophet Jesus Isa would be the seal of the prophets of Allaah meaning the last prophet of Allaah on this earth.

Prophet Jesus Isa is forbidden from returning to this earth because Prophet Muhammad is the seal of the prophets of Allaah meaning the last prophet of Allaah on this earth.

A human is raised to Allaah during sleep or at death (Quran 39:42).

Prophet Jesus Isa was saved by sleep which made everyone think he was dead on the cross. But he was alive. The body of Jesus Isa was sleeping on the cross in Quran 4:157 and the soul of Jesus Isa was with Allaah in Quran 4:158 as explained in Quran 39:42.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 Allaah takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep. He (Allaah) keeps those (souls) for which He (Allaah) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (after which they return to sleep again or die). In this are signs (of Allaah) for people who think. 

Note 1. Allaah does not take the human body to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 2. Only the human soul is raised to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 3. The human body is only needed on the Earth (Quran 39:42). .

Note 4. The human body is not needed in heaven (Quran 39:42).

Note 5. The human soul is alive in heaven without a human body (Quran 39:42).

Sahih Muslim Hadith 6859 (part).

Narrated by Zayd ibn Thabit.

The Prophet (saws) said: “The people who invoke others with Allaah, are passing through the ordeal in the graves. If it were not for the fact that you would stop burying your dead in the graves, I would have certainly made you hear the sound of the torment in the graves, which I hear.”

6. Fabricated hadith 6. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Muslim, Book 40, Hadith 6860: The Book Pertaining to Paradise, Its Description, Its Bounties and Its Intimates.

Anas reported:

Prophet Mohammed said, If you were not (to abandon) the burying of the dead (in the grave), I would have certainly supplicated to Allaah that He should make you listen to the torment of the grave.

1. Notice that the contradiction between hadith 5 and Quran 35:22 is corrected in this hadith by correctly supplicating to Allaah however this hadith continues to contradict Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

The Prophet said, "When a human being is laid in his grave and his companions return and he even hears their footsteps, two angels come to him and make him sit and ask him: What did you use to say about this man, Muhammad ? He will say: I testify that he is Allaah’s servant and His Apostle. Then it will be said to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell-Fire. Allaah has given you a place in Paradise instead of it. “The Prophet added, "The dead person will see both his places. But a non-believer or a hypocrite will say to the angels, 'I do not know, but I used to say what the people used to say! It will be said to him, 'Neither did you know nor did you take the guidance (by reciting the Quran).' Then he will be hit with an iron hammer between his two ears, and he will cry and that cry will be heard by whatever approaches him except human beings and jinns.

8. Fabricated hadith 8. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sunan of Abu-Dawood Hadith 4735.

Narrated by Al-Bara' ibn Azib

The Prophet (saws) said: “When a believer is buried in the grave two angels will come to him (Munkar and Nakir, both have dark faces and blue eyes), make him sit up, and ask: ‘Who is your Lord?’ He will reply: ‘My Lord is Allaah.’ They will ask him: ‘What is your religion?’ He will reply: ‘My religion is Islam.’ They will ask him: ‘What is your opinion about the man who was sent on a mission among you?’ He will reply: ‘He is the Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him).’ They will ask: ‘Who made you aware of this?’ He will reply: ‘I read Allaah’s Book, believed in it, and considered it true.’ Then a crier will call from Heaven: ‘My servant has spoken the truth. So spread a bed for him from Paradise, clothe him from Paradise, and open a door for him into Paradise.’ Then some of its air and perfume will come to him, and a space will be made for him as far as the eye can see. At the death of the unbeliever his soul will be restored to his body in the grave. Then two angels will come to him. They will make him sit up and ask him: ‘Who is your Lord?’ He will reply: ‘Alas, alas! I do not know.’ They will ask him: ‘What is your religion?’ He will reply: ‘Alas, alas! I do not know.’ They will ask: ‘Who was the man who was sent on a mission among you?’ He will reply: ‘Alas, alas! I do not know.’ Then a crier will call from Heaven: ‘He has lied, so spread a bed for him from Hell, clothe him from Hell, and open for him a door into Hell. Then some of its heat and burning hot wind will come to him, and his grave will be compressed, such that his ribs will be crushed together. An angel who is blind and dumb will then be placed in charge of him, having a sledge-hammer, such that, if a mountain were struck with it, it would become dust. He will give him a blow with it, which will be heard by everything between the east and the west except by men and jinn, and he will become dust. Then his soul will be restored to him (again).

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

2. The idea that the soul that is raised by the angel of death to heaven and to Allaah is returned to the human body in the grave contradicts Quran 2:28 and Quran 40:11 which state that humans are alive two times not three times.

Quran 2:28 Koran 2:28 How can you disbelieve in Allaah? You were dead (you did not exist) and He (Allaah) gave you life. Then He (Allaah) shall give you death, then again He (Allaah) shall bring you to life (in the hereafter) and to Him (Allaah) you shall return.

Quran 40:11 Koran 40:11 They (who are in Hell fire Jahannam) shall say, “Our Lord, Twice You (Allaah) have made us lifeless (before sexual conception and at death), and twice You (Allaah) have made us live (after sexual conception and at resurrection). Now we confess our sins. Is there any way to go out (of Hell fire Jahannam)?

9. Fabricated hadith 9. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sunan Tirmidhi 4/639 No. 2460. 

Abu Sa'eed narrated:

"The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) entered his Musalla and saw the people who looked as if they were smiling. So he said: 'Indeed, if you were to increase in remembrance of the severer of pleasures, then you would find yourselves too busy for what I see. So increase in remembrance of death, the severer of pleasures. For indeed there is no day that comes upon the grave except that it speaks, saying: "I am the house of the estranged, I am the house of the solitude, I am the house of dust, and I am the house of the worm-eaten." When the believing worshipper is buried, the grave says to him: "Welcome, make yourself comfortable. Indeed, to me, you are the most beloved of those who walked upon me. Since you have been entrusted to me and delivered to me today, you shall see what I have arranged for you." It will then widen for him so that his sight extends, and the door to Paradise is opened for him. And when the wicked worshipper or the disbeliever is buried , the grave says to him: "You are not welcome, do not get comfortable. Indeed, to me, you are the most hated of those who walked upon me. Since you have been entrusted to me and delivered to me today, you shall see what I have arranged for you.'" He said: 'It will begin closing in on him (squeezing him) until his ribs are crushing each other.'" He said: " The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) clasped some of his fingers between others and said: 'Seventy giant serpents will constrict him, if even one of them were to hiss on the earth, nothing upon it would grow as long as it remained. They will chew on him and bite him until he is brought to the Reckoning.'" He said: " The Messenger of Allaah (SAW) said: 'The grave is but a garden from the gardens of Paradise, or a pit from the pits of the Fire.'"

10. Fabricated hadith 10. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Muslim, Book 4, Hadith 2003: The Book of Prayers.

Umm Salama reported:

The Messenger of Allaah came to Abu Salama (as he died). His eyes were fixedly open. He closed them, and then said: When the soul is taken away the sight follows it. Some of the people of his family wept and wailed. So he said: Do not supplicate for yourselves anything but good, for angels say "Amen" to what you say. He then said: O Allaah, forgive Abu Salama, raise his degree among those who are rightly guided, grant him a successor in his descendants who remain. Forgive us and him, O Lord of the Universe, and make his grave spacious, and grant him light in it

1. This hadith is fabricated. 

The soul is taken up to heaven and to Allaah by the angel of death.

The body becomes dust in the earth and has no need for a spacious grave or for light in the grave.

The soul is not in a grave but under the care of Allaah in the hereafter and has no need for a spacious grave or for light in the grave. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

11. Fabricated hadith 11. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sahih Muslim 3/1520 No. 1913.

Salman (RA) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allaah (SAW) as saying, "Observing Ribat (meaning guard duty) in the way of Allaah for a day and a night is far better than observing Saum (fasting) for a whole month and standing in Salat (prayer) in all its nights. If a person dies (while performing this duty), he will go on receiving his reward for his meritorious deeds perpetually, and he will be saved from Al-Fattan (meaning the interrogation in the grave)."

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

2. Entry to Paradise Jannah requires both pray to Allaah and righteous deeds.

Only Satan Shaitan would whisper that a deed has more reward than praying to Allaah.

Quran 6:158 Koran 6:158 "... belief in it (Allaah and the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) shall not help any soul …. if in belief (he or she) did not earn good (by doing righteous deeds in their life). ....”

Quran 41:8 Koran 41:8 “For those who believe and do good deeds, for them is an everlasting reward (in Paradise Jannah).”

12. Fabricated hadith 12. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith 5352.

Narrated by Abu Sa'id

The Prophet (saws) said: “A day does not come to the grave without its saying, 'I am the house of exile, I am the house of solitude, I am the house of dust, I am the house of worms.' When a believer dies the grave says to him, ‘Welcome and greeting; you are indeed the dearest to me of those who walk upon me.   I have been given charge of you today. You have come to me, and you will see how I shall treat you (with dignity and honour).’ It will then expand for him as far as the eye can see and a door to Paradise will be opened for him. But when the disbeliever is buried the grave says to him, `No welcome and no greeting to you. You are the most hateful to me of those who walk upon me. I have been given charge of you today. You have come to me, and you will see how I shall treat you.' Seventy dragons will be put in charge of him, of such a nature, that if one of them were to breathe on the earth, it would produce no crops as long as the world lasted, and they will bite and scratch him till he is brought to the Day of Reckoning."

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

13. Fabricated hadith 13. 

The false claim of punishment in the grave.

Sunan Tirmidhi Vol. 5 pg. 447 No. 3355.

Ali (RA) narrated:

We did not cease to doubt punishment in the grave till the surah was revealed: Your rivalry in the accumulation of wealth diverts your minds. (102:1 etc.). 

1. This hadith is fabricated because punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46. See fabricated hadith 1 comments.

2. Is it believeable that Ali would have doubted Prophet Muhammad if Prophet Muhammad had revealed punishment in the grave before Quran chapter 102:1 was revealed?

3. There is nothing in chapter 102 of the Quran about punishment in the grave.

Quran 102:1 Koran 102:1 Increase in (worldly) competition distracts you (from thinking about Allaah, your creator).

Quran 102:2 Koran 102:2 Until you visit the graves (and are buried their until the Day of Resurrection meaning all your life until death you are distracted from Allaah by your life in the world).

14. Conclusion about hadith stories of punishment in the grave 1.  

1. There is no punishment in the grave because the idea that the soul that is raised by the angel of death to heaven and to Allaah is returned to the human body in the grave contradicts Quran 2:28 and Quran 40:11 which state that humans are alive two times not three times. 

Quran 2:28 Koran 2:28 How can you disbelieve in Allaah? You were dead (you did not exist) and He (Allaah) gave you life. Then He (Allaah) shall give you death, then again He (Allaah) shall bring you to life (in the hereafter) and to Him (Allaah) you shall return. 

Quran 40:11 Koran 40:11 They (who are in Hell fire Jahannam) shall say, “Our Lord, Twice You (Allaah) have made us lifeless (before sexual conception and at death), and twice You (Allaah) have made us live (after sexual conception and at resurrection). Now we confess our sins. Is there any way to go out (of Hell fire Jahannam)? 

2. There is no punishment in the grave because when the wrong doer and the righteous are resurrected both will say in the hereafter that the time between their death and their resurrection feels like only one hour or ten hours or part of one day in sleep had passed between their death on the earth and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter in Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46.  

Quran 20:103 Koran 20:103 (And on the Day of Resurrection the blue-eyed wrong doers meaning those who have been resurrected with glaucoma meaning blue, green, or gray which is a disease of the eye causing blindness shall be) whispering among themselves (asking how long did we sleep in death before we woke up in the hereafter and they shall say to each other), “You have stayed (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter for what feels like maybe) ten (hours but we are not sure. Ask those who know how to keep count of time).”

Quran 20:104 Koran 20:104 We (Allaah) know very well what they (the people) shall say, when the best of them in behaviour shall say (to the others, that Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 said the truth that on the Day of Resurrection every human both the righteous and the wrong doer will swear that it feels like), "You did not stay for more than one day (sleeping in death on the Earth before you were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter)." 

Quran 23:113 Koran 23:113 (On the Day of Resurrection) they (the evil doers) shall say, “(It feels like) we stayed a day or part of a day (sleeping in death on the Earth before we were resurrected on a new earth, a new ground, a new land in the hereafter) but (we are not sure of the number of years that we were on the Earth between the time of our death and the Day of Resurrection so) ask those who (know how to) keep count (of time).” 

Quran 30:55 Koran 30:55 And on the day when the Hour (of Resurrection) comes the wrong doers shall swear (in the Hereafter) that they only stayed (sleeping in death) for an hour (meaning only one hour had passed since they had died on the Earth), showing how wrong they were (because the time between death and resurrection only feels like an hour or part of a day). 

Quran 79:46 Koran 79:46 On the day they see it (the Day of Resurrection), it shall be as if they (each human) had not stayed (sleeping in death) except for an evening or a morning. 

1. Punishment in the grave contradicts what Allaah teaches in Quran 2:259, 7:187, 18:19, 18:21, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46.

2. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Torah Taurat as a warning to the Jews but it is not in the Torah Taurat. 

3. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Gospel Injil as a warning to the Christians but it is not in the Gospel Injil. 

4. If punishment in the grave is true it would be in the Quran as a warning to the Muslims but it is not in the Quran. 

Quran 2:259, Quran 7:187, Quran 18:19, Quran 18:21, Quran 20:103, Quran 20:104, Quran 23:113, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 are confirmed in the story of the seven people who woke up after sleeping for 309 years in a cave in Ephesus, Turkey to describe death as a short sleep in Quran 18:19 and Quran 18:21 and in the story of Prophet Ezra Uzair who died near Jerusalem Al-Quds and was resurrected back to life 100 years later to describe death as a short sleep in Quran 2:259.

3. There is no punishment in the grave because for every human the time between death on the earth and the Day of Resurrection in the hereafter will feel like only one hour or part of a morning or evening has passed in sleep in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 meaning that for every human death will feel like nothing more than a very brief short sleep. 

Allaah in the Quran teaches that the time between death and resurrection is like sleeping for one hour or for part of one morning or part of one evening. 

Satan Shaitan does nothing but whisper stories that contradict what Allaah teaches in the Quran and in the Gospel Injil and in the Torah Taurat. 

Satan Shaitan deceives humans so that they disbelieve Allaah in the Books of Allaah by believing human stories that contradict the teachings of Allaah in the Books of Allaah. 

Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith stories that contradict the teachings of Allaah to hide the message of Allaah that the Day of Resurrection and Judgement is as near as one hour after death in Quran 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 which is confirmed in the stories of the seven sleepers of the cave in Quran 18:19 and Quran 18:21 and in the story of the death and resurrection of Prophet Ezra Uzair in Quran 2:259. 

Satan Shaitan cannot change the words in the Quran or the Torah Taurat or the Gospel Injil that is with humans today but Satan Shaitan can whisper stories that contradict and corrupt and hide the teachings of Allaah in the human mind. 

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it. 

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran.  

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the protected words of Prophet Muhammad.

15. Abu Bakr explained where false hadith stories come from.

Abu Bakr who lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad shows that some hadith stories regarded as trustworthy and recited after the death of Prophet Muhammad were in fact untrustworthy hadith stories. 

Hadith story 0. 

It has been narrated that Aishah (the wife of Prophet Muhammad) said, my father (Abu Bakr) collected the hadīth (stories of the Messenger of Allaah), which was five hundred texts. 

He spent that night so sleeplessly and restlessly that I was sad for him. 

I therefore asked, ‘Are you moving restlessly due to an ailment or information that you received?’ 

In the morning, he asked me to fetch him the collection of hadīth that he had put with me. 

When I fetched them, he set fire to them. 

As I asked for the reason, he replied, ‘I anticipated that I would die while I still have this collection among which there might be reports of a man that I deemed trustworthy while he was the opposite; therefore, I would be the narrator of such false reports.’ 

(Recorded in 1. Al-Dhahbiy: Tadhkirat al-Huffādh 1:5, 

Recorded in 2. Al-Qāsim ibn Muhammad (died in 1029 AH): al-I`tisām bi-Habl-illāh al-Matīn 1:30, 

Recorded in 3. `Abd al-Ghaniy `Abd al-Khāliq: Hijjiyyat al-Sunnah 394).

If hadith you believed was true you later understood cannot be true you would not be able to sleep. 

Who is the man Abu Bakr deemed trustworthy while he was the opposite meaning untrustworthy? 

Abu Bakr does not name him. 

The trusted man was not related to the prophet. 

The trusted man is someone Prophet Muhammad trusted and therefore all Muslims trusted during the life of Prophet Muhammad. 

The trusted man was invited to eat in the house of Prophet Muhammad and therefore it was thought that this trusted man had direct knowledge about the sayings of the prophet. 

The trusted man did not recite hadith stories during the life of Prophet Muhammad. 

The trusted man made a living reciting hundreds of hadith stories after the death of Prophet Muhammad. 

The trusted man is someone who recited more than the five hundred hadith stories that Abu Bakr had collected after the death of Prophet Muhammad. 

Abu Bakr could not sleep because like Muslims today he understood that many hadith stories are opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran. 

Any hadith story that is opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran is a false hadith story. 

The hadith stories collected by Abu Bakr were from a man Abu Bakr considered trustworthy. 

When Abu Bakr understood that this trustworthy man was in fact untrustworthy Abu Bakr destroyed his 500 hadith story collection. 

The destruction of these 500 hadith stories show that these stories where not stories that Abu Bakr heard directly from the prophet. 

Abu Bakr says these stories came from a trusted man. 

These stories were collected after the death of Prophet Muhammad by Abu Bakr from a man who was trusted to have direct knowledge of the sayings of the prophet because that trusted man was invited to eat with the prophet. 

In the later part of the life of Abu Bakr he began to understand that these stories were untrustworthy because they were opposite of what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran. 

After the death of Prophet Muhammad the trustworthy man showed he was untrustworthy by inventing false hadith stories as a way to make a living. 

These are hadith stories which cannot be true because they teach something that is opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran. 

These hadith stories are false hadith stories because they contradict the stories of Allaah and Prophet Muhammad which are protected in the Quran.

16. Umar ibn Al-Khattab explained where false hadith stories come from.

Why did Umar ibn Al-Khattab who lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad collect all hadith story books in his time and burn them? 

The following hadith shows that Umar thought that hadith books were not the fairest and the straightest of Allaah’s most beloved books meaning some hadith was not fair and some hadith was not straight meaning hadith was interfering with the correct understanding of what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad say in the Quran as Muslims today also understand when they find false hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran. 

Hadith story 1. 

It has been narrated on the authority of al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr that Umar, after he had received news confirming that people started to hold (or write) books, denied and disliked the matter saying, ‘O people: I have been informed that you have started to hold books. Allaah’s most beloved books must be the fairest and the straightest. 

Now, I order you all to bring me all the books that you hold so that I will decide about them.’

Thinking that `Umar wanted to correct and submit the books to a certain criterion, all people brought their books to him. Instead, he set them all to fire and said, ‘This is a false wish just like that of the Christians and the Jews.’ 

(Recorded in Abd al-Ghaniy `Abd al-Khāliq: Hijjiyyat al-Sunnah 395). 

Note 1. ‘This is a false wish just like that of the Christians and the Jews’ means ‘This (human writing) is a false wish (desire) just like that of the (human writing of the) Christians and the Jews.’ 

The following hadith (with my comments added in the brackets) explains why Umar thought that hadith books that existed in his time were not the fairest and the straightest of Allaah’s most beloved books meaning hadith was interfering with the correct understanding of what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad say in the Quran. 

Hadith story 2. 

According to Ibn Sa’d, in his al-Tabaqat al-Kubra, Umar said, ‘This (hadith) is a Mishna (meaning human writings) just like that of the Christians (for example the priests who invented the idea that Jesus Isa is Allaah and Jesus Isa will return to this earth in Christian writings that are not in the Gospel Injil) and the Jews (for example the rabbis who invented the idea of the anti messiah Armilus in Jewish writings known as the false messiah the Dajjal Dijjal which is not in the Torah Taurat).’ 

(Recorded in Ibn Sa`d: al-Tabaqāt al-Kubrā 1:140). 

See 1. When a prophet dies Satan Shaitan whispers stories that contradict the Books of Allaah. 

The description of the Dajjal Dijjal is Armilus. 

“… In Rome there is a splendid marble statue of a beautiful girl which god himself made in the beginning of the world. Through sexual intercourse of evil men, or even of Satan himself, with this statue, a terrible creature in human form was produced, whose dimensions as well as shape were equally monstrous.” … “Armilus is bald-headed, with one large and one small eye, deaf in the right ear and maimed in the right arm, while the left arm is two and one-half ells long.” 

Reference https://jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/1789-armilus

See 2. Anti Messiah (anti Christ) is not in the Quran.

Anti Messiah (anti Christ) is not in Tanakh Jewish scripture.

Anti Messiah (anti Christ) is in Christianity.

Armilus in Judaism is not an Anti Messiah (anti Christ) but represents Romulus the founder of Rome In the Roman story of Amulius.

In Judaism Armilus represents the defeat of Rome in the end of days and was misunderstood by Christians as an anti Messiah (anti Christ) however there is no anti Messiah (anti Christ) in Tanakh Jewish scripture or in the Quran.

Hadith stories about the Dajjal in Islam are not confirmed in the Quran meaning such hadith stories were written after the death of the prophet.

Hadith test. 

Are these hadith useful in religion? 

Yes. These hadith explain where false hadith came from. 

Hadith stories are false if they teach something that is opposte to the teachings of the stories of Allaah and Prophet Muhammad which are protected in the Quran. 

When a prophet leaves the earth Satan Shaitan whispers false hadith stories that hide, distort and corrupt the correct understanding in the human mind of the words of Allaah and his prophet which are recorded in the Books of Allaah. 

When Prophet Jesus Isa left the earth Satan Shaitan whispered “Jesus Isa is Allaah” which cannot be found in the Gospel Injil as proof that Allaah has protected the Injil of Isa the Gospel of Jesus by Mark, Matthew. Luke and John which is with the Christians today in the same way as Allaah protects the Quran which is with the Muslims today.

Hadith information.

Hadith 0. Aishah (Aishah bint Abu Bakr, born 8 BH 614 CE, died 57 AH 678 CE) wife of Prophet Muhammad. 

Hadith 1. Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr. 

Aishah (Aishah bint Abu Bakr, born 8 BH 614 CE, died 57 AH 678 CE) taught her nephew Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr (born 38 AH 662 CE, died 108 AH 730 CE). 

Many Hadith are quoted through Qasim.

Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr was one of the seven most famous jurists in Madinah and was considered as the most knowledgeable among them. 

He was highly influential in disseminating early traditions of hadith, fiqh (jurisprudence) and tafsir (exegesis) of the Qur'an. 

Hadith explaining why hadith books were destroyed by Umar ibn Al-Khattab were narrated by Aishah to her nephew Al-Qāsim ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr. 

Hadith 2. Ibn Sa`d (Abu Abd Allaah Muḥammad ibn Sa‘d ibn Mani‘ al-Baṣri al-Hashimi katib al-Waqidi, born 168 AH 784 CE, died 230 AH 845 CE) was trained by teachers such as Al-Waqidi who was a biographer writing about Prophet Muhammad and an early historian who wrote some of the earliest and most detailed history books on Islam. 

Ibn Sa’d wrote the Book of the Major Classes (Kitab Tabaqat Al-Kubra) about the life of Prophet Muhammad, his Companions and Helpers, and those who fought at the Battle of Badr and about the following generation called the Followers who received their traditions from the Companions.

Quran 17:88 Koran 17:88 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "If humans and jinn (such as Satan Shaitan) came together to help each other to produce something like the Quran, they could not do it." 

Note 1. In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might boast he obeyed Quran 17:88 by whispering hundreds of false hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran.

Note 2. Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46 is proof that all hadith stories about punishment in the grave are false stories invented by dishonest people who made a living by claimed their stories came from Prophet Muhammad because people loved listening to stories about Prophet Muhammad. 

Quran 77:50 Koran 77:50 In what statement (words, news, reports, information, message, hadith), after it (the verses of Allaah in the Quran), shall they (the humans and the jinn) believe? 

Note 1. Quran 7:185, Quran 25:29, Quran 25:30, Quran 31:6, Quran 39:23, Quran 45:6 and Quran 77:50 asks when you have the word of Allaah in the Quran what other report would you believe? 

Quran 24:12 Koran 24:12 Why did not the believers (both) men and women when you heard it (the lie that Aishah the wife of Prophet Muhammad had committed illegal sexual intercourse with another man, or in this example of the lies in hadith stories about punishment in the grave which contradict what Allaah and His prophet are teaching in Quran 2:259, 18:19, 20:103, 20:104, 23:113, 30:55, 46:35 and 79:46) think good about your own people (and the Quran) and say, “This (accusation/hadith story) is clearly a lie?”

17. What is the difference between true hadith stories and false hadith stories? 

1. How many ayah verses in the Gospel Injil of Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John say “Jesus Isa is Allaah” (zero, none) and how many ayah verses in the Gospel Injil of Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John say “Jesus Isa is not Allaah” (many) but some Christians swear “Jesus is Allaah.” 

2. How many ayah verses in the Quran say “Jesus Isa is returning to this earth” (zero, none) and how many ayah verses in the Quran say “Jesus Isa is not returning to this earth” (many) but some Muslims swear “Jesus is returning to this earth.” 

3. Some Christians do not correctly understand the words in the Gospel Injil because whatever they read in the Gospel Injil a voice says to them “Jesus Isa is Allaah” even when they read Jesus Isa prays to Allaah in the Gospel Injil.

4. Some Muslims do not correctly understand the words in Quran because whatever they read in the Quran a voice says to them “Jesus Isa is returning to this earth” even when Allaah says the messengers before Jesus Isa are dead and Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam “used to eat food” meaning they are also dead in Quran 5:75 and in Quran 3:144 the messengers before Prophet Muhammad are dead meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad.

5. Satan Shaitan has blinded some Christians to the words of Allaah in the Gospel Injil in the same way as Satan Shaitan has blinded some Muslims to the words of Allaah in the Quran with false hadith stories that are opposite to what Allaah is teaching in the Gospel Injil and in the Quran.

6. Satan Shaitan gave some Christians the false story that “Jesus is Allaah” and Satan Shaitan gave some Muslims the false story that “Jesus Isa is returning to this earth.”

7. The purpose of false hadith stories is to hide, distort and corrupt the word of Allaah in the human mind.

8. Satan Shaitan can never change the word of Allaah in the Books of Allaah therefore every hadith story which is opposite to what Allaah is teaching in the Books of Allaah is a false hadith story.

9. The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the protected words of Prophet Muhammad.

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it.

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it.

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

10. How to know if you correctly understand the Quran? 

Allaah says:

           1. The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil.

           2. Quran 4:136 Koran 4:136 “... and whoever has no faith in … His (Allaah’s) Books (the Torah Taurat and the Gospel Injil and the Quran), … then he has strayed far away (from Allaah).

           3. Quran 30:30 Koran 30:30 “…. No one can alter what Allaah has created (in religion, in the Torah Taurat, the Gospel Injil and the Koran Quran). That is the right religion (belief), but most people do not know (this). 

           4. Believe 1 and 2 and 3 and believe that your understanding of the Quran can only be correct if your understanding explains everything that is in the Torah Taurat and in the Gospel Injil because when all the books of Allaah support each other it is proof that you have correctly understood what Allaah has revealed.

18. Conclusion about hadith stories of punishment in the grave 2.

1. In death on Earth the soul is raised up to Allaah in Heaven meaning nothing happens in the grave on the earth. 

When the soul is raised to Allaah it is not put back into the dead body. 

The soul is in heaven and the dead body is on the earth so it is not possible to put the soul in the dead body because the soul is in heaven until the Day of Resurrection. 

The soul is not returned to the earth where the dead body is located. 

2. If punishment in the grave was true then everyone would know the Day of Resurrection is coming and it would not surprise anyone. 

The Quran says the Day of Resurrection will come suddenly meaning everyone will be surprised meaning there will be no punishment in the grave that will warn people that the Day of Resurrection is coming. 

If there was punishment in the grave then every human would know the Day of Resurrection is coming and no one would be surprised. 

The surprise is the arrival of the Day of Resurrection. 

If punishment in the grave was true then everyone would know they will be resurrected and it would not be a surprise to anyone because everyone in the grave would be expecting that the Day of Resurrection is coming. 

3. Without a body the soul has no way to speak until the Day of Resurrection. The only teaching in the Jewish and Christian and Muslim books from Allaah about death is that nothing happens until the Day of Resurrection and Judgement. 

4. Without a body the soul has no way to feel reward or punishment until it is given a body on the Day of Resurrection. The only teaching in the Jewish and Christian and Muslim books from Allaah about death is that nothing happens until the Day of Resurrection and Judgement. 

5. If punishment in the grave was true then Allaah would have revealed it to Jews and Christians but it is unknown to them. 

Quran 41:43 Koran 41:43 Nothing is said (by Allaah) to you (Prophet Muhammad) except what has already been said to the messengers before you. Your Lord (Allaah) is the possessor of forgiveness and severe punishment. 

6. What hadith stories say about death is opposite to what Allaah is teaching about death in Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 23:113, Quran 23:114, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 where every human both the righteous and wicked will testify on the Day of Resurrection that death feels like a one or ten hour sleep meaning death feels like closing and opening your eyes. Notice how many verses Allaah is using to teach us this one thing about death. 

7. When hadith stories contradict the Quran and Zabur Psalm it means those stories were invented by people who made a living inventing and telling stories after the death of the prophet. 

All those people did not understand the purpose of Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 23:113, Quran 23:114, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 which allows Muslims today to know some of the false hadith stories which some earlier Muslims though were true hadith stories. 

Zabur Psalm 6:6 For there is no memory of You (Allaah) in death; in the grave, who will thank You (Allaah)? 

Note 1. Humans have no memory in death meaning no memory when they are in the grave. 

Note 2. Humans have no memory of Allaah when they are in the grave meaning nothing happens in the grave. 

Note 3. Dead humans can only know Allaah when they are resurrected back to life meaning nothing happens during death in the grave. 

8. Stories like punishment in the grave contradict the books of Allaah in the same way as stories that Jesus is Allaah contradict the books of Allaah. 

It is very hard for people who have been taught “Jesus is Allaah” to understand Jesus is not Allaah in the same way as it is hard for people who have been taught “punishment in the grave” to understand it is not true. 

If you tell some Christians that Jesus prayed to Allaah they still say he is Allaah. 

If you tell some Muslims Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 23:113, Quran 23:114, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 means nothing happens in the grave it can be hard for them to accept. 

9. If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it. 

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the words and actions of Prophet Muhammad which are described and protected by Allaah. 

10. When a dishonest story teller makes a living by telling stories for his meals he will need to invent stories because no one is interested to hear the same story twice.  

a. When Abu Bakr in 15 above who lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad wrote down hadith stories that were recited to him after the death of Prophet Muhammad by a man who visited him during meal time he began to understand that some of these stories contradicted what Allaah teaches in the Quran and one night he could not sleep because he understood that it was impossible for him to trust stories which came from a man who recited stories contradicting the Quran and therefore he destroyed his collection of 500 hadith stories so that Allaah in the hereafter will not blame him for passing on false hadith stories.

b. When Umar ibn Al-Khattab in 16 above who lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad heard that after the death of Prophet Muhammad people were writing hadith stories he ordered everyone who had written books or had a book of hadith to give it to him and he destroyed all those books in a fire because like Muslims today he found that many of these stories contradicted what Allaah teaches in the Quran meaning they were false hadith stories and he did that so that Allaah in the hereafter will not blame him for allowing the passing on of false hadith stories during his period of leadership of the Muslim community. 

Quran 17:88 Koran 17:88 Say (Prophet Muhammad), "If humans and jinn (such as Satan Shaitan) came together to help each other to produce something like the Quran, they could not do it." 

Note 1. In the hereafter Satan Shaitan might boast he obeyed Quran 17:88 by whispering hundreds of false hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran. 

Note 2. Hadith punishment in the grave contradicts the Quran.

The hadith punishment in the grave contradicts Quran 2:259, Quran 18:19, Quran 20:103, Quran 23:113, Quran 23:114, Quran 30:55, Quran 46:35 and Quran 79:46 meaning this hadith story was invented by story tellers after the death of Prophet Muhammad and repeated by people who were deceived to believe false stories. 

c. What does the Quran say about information that contradicts Allaah in the Quran? 

Quran 77:50 Koran 77:50 In what statement (words, news, reports, information, message, hadith), after it (the verses of Allaah in the Quran), shall they (the humans and the jinn) believe?  

Note 1. Quran 7:185, Quran 25:29, Quran 25:30, Quran 31:6, Quran 39:23, Quran 45:6 and Quran 77:50 asks when you have the word of Allaah in the Quran what other report would you believe? 

Do not twist inside your mind the meaning of the words of Allaah in the Quran to agree with hadith stories. 

If hadith stories agree with the Quran then accept it and learn from it. 

If hadith stories do not agree with the Quran then reject it and also learn from it. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah judges by the words in the protected Quran. 

On the Day of Judgement Allaah does not judge by the words in unprotected human hadith stories. 

The Quran is the protected word of Allaah including the words and actions of Prophet Muhammad which are described and protected by Allaah. 

d. When Allaah tells Prophet Muhammad what happened after his death what will Prophet Muhammad say to Allaah on the Day of Judgement? 

Quran 25:30 Koran 25:30 And (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) the messenger (Prophet Muhammad) said, “My Lord (Allaah) my people have abandoned (deserted) this Quran (to follow false messages, false words, false news, false reports, false information, false statements, false hadith).” 

Note 1. On the Day of Resurrection and Judgement Prophet Muhammad will say “My Lord my people have abandoned this Quran (to follow false messages, false words, false news, false reports, false information, false statements, false hadith).”

Video: Obsession with false hadith culture Is corrupting Islam.

e. Misguidance.

When people are taught how to twist the words of Allaah to agree with hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah teaches in the Quran instead of teaching people to ask the question "does this hadith story agree with the teachings of Allaah in the Quran" the result can be people who follow the mistakes of other people instead of people who are led by the teachings of Allaah in the Quran.

In Christianity some people follow the story that Jesus is Allaah which is not in the four Gospels however because they believe something from outside the Gospel they twist every verse in the Gospel to show that Jesus is Allaah even when Jesus prays to Allaah in all the four Gospel Injil and even when Allaah says in the Gospel that both Jesus and the angels do not know "the hour" because only Allaah knows

In Islam some people follow hadith stories which teach the opposite to what Allaah and Prophet Muhammad teach in the Quran as shown in the reference below and like some Christians they also twist every verse of Allaah in the Quran to agree with some thing that came from outside the Quran.

In this way some Christians and some Muslims have beliefs which contradict the teachings of Allaah in the  Gospel and in the Quran.

f. The danger of believing false stories.

People who believe false stories invented by other humans after the death of a prophet can be made to believe other false stories invented by humans as seen in some Christian cults and some Muslim cults who followed stories supporting their killing of people and their killing of themselves.

g. Education.

Teaching people to ask "is this story contradicting the teachings in the books of Allaah" will help protect people from other people who are following false stories instead of following the stories in the books of Allaah.

The Quran confirms the Torah Taurat and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel Injil.

A. Prophet Muhammad in the Torah Taurat and Gospel Injil.

See Quran 7:157 comments in Quran chapter 7.

B. Every prophet of Allaah is “the Word of Allaah made flesh” meaning the word of Allaah comes out of the mouth of every prophet of Allaah in Deuteronomy 18:18.

See Quran 5:116 comments in Quran chapter 5.

C. How did Allaah save Jesus. 

See 1. Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 comments in Quran chapter 4.

See 2. Quran 29:57 comments in Quran chapter 29.

D. The second coming of Jesus and every other human is on the Day of Resurrection.

See Quran 79:7 comments in Quran chapter 79.

E. Examples of hadith stories which contradict the teachings of Allaah in the Quran.

See Quran 25:30 comments in Quran chapter 25.

2. Hadith Prophet Jesus Isa is returning to this earth contradicts the Quran. 

In the Quran Prophet Jesus Isa was saved on the cross from death with sleep and woke up after 3 days of sleep to continue living on the earth teaching the people he is not god until his natural death 2000 years ago as proof to his people that he is not god and in this way the Quran explains the story of Prophet Jesus Isa in the Gospel of Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which was with the Christian people 1400 years ago and is with them today and will be with them until the Day of Judgement. 

The hadith “Prophet Jesus Isa is returning to this earth” because he did not die 2000 years ago contradicts Quran 3:144 (where “passed away” in the Quran always means died in Quran 2:134, Quran 2:141, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 7:38, Quran 13:30, Quran 41:25 and Quran 46:17), Quran 4:157 (see Quran 39:42), Quran 4:158 (see Quran 39:42), Quran 5:75 (where “passed away” in the Quran always means died in Quran 2:134, Quran 2:141, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 7:38, Quran 13:30, Quran 41:25 and Quran 46:17), Quran 5:117 (see Quran 7:6), Quran 7:6 (see Quran 5:117), Quran 21:95 (see Quran 23:99 – 23:100), Quran 33:40 (see Gospel of Jesus Isa by Mark 13:5 – 13:6, 13:21 – 13:22) and Quran 39:42 (see Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158) meaning this hadith story was invented by story tellers after the death of Prophet Muhammad and repeated by people who were deceived to believe false hadith stories.
