What happens to a Muslim when they die?

"have his body brought down. They agreed, and he was buried there. Mary said to the mother of Yahya, Will you not take us to visit the grave of the Messiah? They went, and as they approached the grave, Mary asked the mother of Yahya to cover herself. She replied, From whom should I cover myself? Mary said, From this man who is by the grave. The mother of Yahya said, I do not see anyone. Mary hoped it would be Jibreel, as she had not seen him for a long time. The mother of Yahya approached the grave, and Jibreel spoke to her, revealing himself. He said, O Mary, where do you wish to go? She replied, I want to visit the grave of the Messiah to greet him and renew my"

"immersed. Death does not show mercy to the ignorant in their guile, nor to one from whom knowledge was sought. How often death has silenced in the grave where I stood those unable to respond, yet their tongues were not mute. Your palace was well inhabited, lofty. Today your grave is in ruins amidst the tombs. On another grave was written, I stood at the graves when they were clear, like winning horses in a race. But when I wept and my tears flowed, my eyes saw my place among them. And on a doctor's grave was written, I said when someone told me, Luqman went to his grave."

"grave is well constructed and secure. Yet what benefit is there for the buried if his grave is well built while his body within it is crumbling? Ibn al-Samak said, I passed by the graves and found written on a grave, my relatives pass by the sides of my grave as if my relatives do not recognize me. The heirs divide my wealth and are keen to deny my debts. They have taken their shares and live. By God, how swiftly they have forgotten me. And on another grave was written, The beloved from the loved ones is suddenly taken."

"gone, is there not a lesson for you in what you see? So I returned weeping, verses found inscribed on the graves. Written on a grave was, The silent graves whisper to you and their inhabitants under the earth are quiet. O hoarder of the world without eloquence, for whom do you gather the world while you are to die? Found on another grave was inscribed, O Ghanim, your wealth is abundant but your grave is well constructed and secure. Yet what benefit is there for the buried if his grave is well built while his body within it is crumbling?"

"what have you prepared for this day? He replied, The testimony that there is no god but Allah for sixty years. After she was buried, al-Farazdaq stood over her grave and recited, I fear beyond the grave if I am not pardoned, more a flame and tighter than the grave itself. When a fierce guide comes to me on resurrection day, and a driver compels al-Farazdaq forward, indeed, doomed is the son of Adam who walks to the fire, chained and wearing a blue collar. They recited in the presence of the graves, Stand by the graves and say in their courtyards, Who among you is submerged in its darkness, and who among you in its depths has tasted the coldness of safety from its"

"with their weapons and household items, and crucifixes were placed over their chiefs' graves. For each grave, three horses were erected over every chief's grave, and one horse per grave for the others. This day was a noted occasion. No man or woman, Muslim or infidel, was absent, all dressed in mourning garments, white cloaks for the infidels and white garments for the Muslims. The Khan's khans and his inner circle stayed in the tents upon his grave for forty days, with some extending it to a year. A market was established there, selling all they might need in terms of food and other items. These acts, I recall, no other nation performs in this age. As for the"

"of Israel to enter upon them. Wab ibn Munabi narrated that Moses, peace be upon him, once passed by a group of angels digging a grave. It was the most beautiful and verdant grave he had ever seen. He asked the angels, O angels of Allah, for whom are you digging this grave? They replied, For a noble servant of Allah's servants, if you wish. The angels instructed Moses to enter the grave, stretch out in it, and turn towards his Lord, breathing with ease. He did so, and he passed away. May the prayers and peace of Allah be upon him. The angels prayed over him and buried him."

"There lies a zawiyah and a mosque on the seashore, surrounded by a fishing village. In the zawiyah, there is a grave inscribed as the grave of Hud, son of Abir, may peace be upon him. It is mentioned that there is a place in the mosque of Damascus inscribed as the grave of Hud, son of Abir, but it is more likely that his grave is in the akhaf, for that was his land, and God knows best."

"and flew away with it into the sky. To the west of Damascus is a graveyard known as the Martyr's Cemetery, wherein lies the grave of Abu al-Darda, his wife Umm al-Darda, the grave of Fadala ibn Ubaid, the grave of Wathila ibn Aska, and the grave of Sahal ibn Hanzala, among those who pledged allegiance under the tree. May Allah be pleased with them all."

"My comrade blamed me, as we crossed that place, for weeping, for the pouring down of my streaming tears. He said: "Do you weep at every grave you see, for one grave laid to rest between the sand-curve and the dunes?"
