Abu Huraira narrated that: The Messenger of Allah said: When the deceased - or he said when one of you - is buried; two angels; black and blue eyed_ come to him. One of them is called AlMunkar; and the other AlNakir. They say: What did you used to say about this man? So he says what he was saying before death He is Allah slave and His Messenger. I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger. So they say: We knew that you would say this. Then his grave is expanded to seventy by seventy cubits; then it is illuminated for him. Then it is said to him: Sleep. So he said: Can I return to my family to inform them? They say: Sleep as a newlywed; whom none awakens but the dearest of his family. Until Allah resurrects him from his resting place.If he was a hypocrite he would say: I heard people saying something; so I said the same; I do not know. So they said: We knew you would say that. So the earth is told: Constrict him. So it constricts around him; squeezing his ribs together. He continues being punished like that until Allah resurrects him from his resting place.
