How shall people come out of their graves on the Day of Resurrection?


Question: How shall people come out of their graves on the Day of Resurrection? And who will be the first to be dressed?

Answer from The Permanent Committee:

Allaah سُبحانه وتعالى, will resurrect man on the Day of Resurrection by reconstructing him from his tail bone. People will grow as perfect creatures just as plants grow from seeds, and palm trees from date stones. They will emerge from their graves barefooted, naked and uncircumcised. They will rush forth like spread out locusts, or dispersed butterflies, and will not miss the way to the Assembly Land. In fact they will know their way to it better than a wild pigeon knows it way to its nest, as they are racing to a target.

The first upon whom the earth will crack open is our Prophet Muhammad صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم. He will be the first to regain consciousness. As for the first to be dressed after Resurrection is Khalilur-Rahmân (the beloved one of the Merciful) may Allaah exalt his mention, and render him safe from evil. Horror will overtake mankind to the point even Prophets will say on the Day: “Myself, myself”. He who reads the Verses that detail with Resurrection in the Surahs Al-Qamar, Al-Ma’arij, and al-Qari’ah, and the like will have more information about that great event.

It is authentically reported in both Bukhari and Muslim, that the Prophet صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم said:

“You shall be summoned barefooted, naked and uncircumcised.”

Is the punishment of the grave specific to the one who is ACTUALLY in a grave only?



Al-Imaam Ibnu Abil-Izz (رحمه الله) said in his explanation on 'Aqeedatu At-Tahaawiyyah' page 400 :

"And know that the punishment of the grave is the punishment of the Barzakh (Life of the Barrier), so everyone who dies and he is deserving of the punishment will receive his portion from it if was buried or not , if he was eaten by a beast or if he was burnt until he became ashes and was scattered into the air or if he was crucified or if he drowned in the sea, the punishment will still reach his spirit and body the same way it would reach the one who was buried."

O son of Aadam place your foot on your earth...

 


Al-Hasan (rahimahullaah) said:

O son of Aadam place your foot on your earth, & know that it will be your grave after a short while.”
