The HereAfter - Narrated By Anwar Al Aulaqi by IdisuleOurOwn(m): 7:01am On May 26, 2015 |
Journey of the Soul RasullAllah (SaW) tells us in a long hadeeth about the story of the soul when it leaves the body. The trip that the soul takes; he says, “When the believer is dying, the angels come down with a coffin from jannah, and some scents from jannah; and they descend and they sit in front of that person. And then the angel of death descends, and tells the believer, ‘Be happy and pleased with the promise of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala for you.’ And then he calls the soul to come out. He says, ‘O you soul in the state of tranquility, come out to the pleasure that will be provided to you by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala.’” So RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam says that soul will come out so easily, it is like a drop of water that is flowing down from a jug; like pouring a drop of water. It slides so easily out of the body. And as soon as the angel of death takes that soul, all of the angels would jump, every one of them wants to take the honor of holding that soul and wrapping it in the coffin. And then they would carry it up in the heavens. And RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam says whenever they would carry up next to a group of angels, they would smell this beautiful scent and they would say, ‘Whose soul is this?’ And then the angels would tell them, this is the soul of so and so; they would call him with his best names. Until they reach to the gates of the lowest heaven. And then they would seek permission – so the gates of that heaven will open up. And whenever this soul is carried through a heaven, the angels of that heaven would accompany it until the next heaven. And angels are surrounding this soul all the way up until it reaches Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala. And then Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala will deliver the promise of jannah to that soul. And then Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala will say, ‘Take that soul back to earth because that is where I have created them from, and that is where they would return, and that is where they would be resurrected from.’ So the souls would then descend down with honor of Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala. And then RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam tells us what happens to the soul of an unbeliever or the evil doer. RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam says the angels come down with a coffin from hellfire. And they come next to him and the angel of death would stand next to him and say, ‘O you evil soul, come out to the punishment of Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala and His anger.’ So that soul will disperse around the body and try to cling to every nerve and muscle. It doesn’t want to leave. So the angel of death is pulling that soul out. RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam says that the pain of that soul is like a branch filled with thorns being pulled out of a wet ball of wool. Imagine pulling out a branch filled with thorns out of a wet ball of wool. It is tearing apart the nerves and the muscles of that person, pain and agony of death. And as soon as that soul comes out of the body, the angels would jump and wrap it up in the coffin from hellfire and then they would carry it up. RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam says it has a stinking rotten smell. And whenever this soul passes next to angels, they would start cursing it and they would say, ‘Whose soul is this?’ So they angels would call him with his worst names. And then the angels would carry it up to the first heaven, the lowest heaven, and they would seek permission. But the door of that heavens will not be opened for them. And then Allahu Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala says, ‘Throw that soul to the lowest earth.’ So that the soul will be thrown down with a disgrace by Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala. Now the soul is in the graves. |

So we start with the next section in Al Akhirah and that is Al Kabr. The graves. Uthman (RA) whenever he would see a grave, he would cry. So they asked him, how come when you remember jannah and naar that wouldn’t affect you like when you remember the graves, Al Kabr? Uthman (RA) said, I heard RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam say, that the grave is the first step towards Akhirah. It’s the first step towards Akhirah. If you make it throw it, then whatever comes after it will be made easier. And if you cannot make it throw the grave, then whatever will happen after it is worse. And that is why I cry whenever I remember the grave. And then he said that RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said, everything horrific that I have seen, the grave is more horrific. Everything that I have seen in my life, nothing is as worse as what I have seen in the grave. Pretty soon we’re going to be there. Everyone of us. We’re going to leave the comfort of this dunya, we’re going to leave it behind and we’re going to be there. Every single one of us one day will be carried and we’ll be put in that hole in the earth. The grave is dark. There was a woman who used to clean the masjid in the time of RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam. An old woman, she would come and clean the masjid. She was ill and then she died late at night. So the sahabah RA, they buried her. And they did not wake up RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam because it was late as night. And then later RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam asked, where is that old woman? They said, she became ill and we buried her. RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said, why didn’t you call me? RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam was the father for this ummah. He cared about every single one of them. The weak and the strong, the man and the woman. The old and the young. He said, why didn’t you wake me up? And then RasulAllah Salallahu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said, show me her grave. So he went and visited her grave and then he said, these graves are dark but Allah Subahanahu Wa Ta’ala is going to give them light because of my salah on them (Narrated by Bukhari). |
