Hadith About Death

Prophet Muhammad (saw)[peace be upon him] said, "When a human being is laid in his grave and his companions return and he even hears their foot steps, two angles 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 Allah's slave and His Apostle.' Then it will be said to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell-Fire. Allah has given you a place in Paradise instead of it.'" Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him added, "The dead person will see both his places. But a non believer or hypocrite will say to the angle, '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." (Suhih Bukhari 2:2422)
