When a man dies and his relatives are busy in funeral rites, there stands an
extremely handsome man by his head. When the dead body is shrouded, that man
gets in between the shroud and the chest of the deceased. When after the
burial, the people return home, 2 angels, Munkar and Nakee, come in the
grave and try to separate this handsome man so that they may be able to
interrogate the dead man in privacy about his faith. But the handsome man
says,"He is my companion, he is my friend. I will not leave him alone in any
case. If you are appointed for interrogation, do your job.I cannot leave him
until I get him admitted into Paradise". Thereafter he turns to his dead
companion and says, "I am the Qura'an,which you used to read, sometimes in a
loud voice and sometimes in a low voice. Do not worry.After the
interrogation of Munkar and Naker, you will have no grief. When the
interrogation is over, the handsome man arranges for him from al-Mala'ul
A'laa (the angels in Heaven)-- a silk bedding filled with musk. May Allah
bestow this favour on all of us. Ameen.
Rasulullah (Sallalloho alaihe wasallam) said, "On the Day of Judgement,
before Allah, no other intercessor will have a greater status than the
Qura'an, neither a Prophet nor an angel."
