Reseña del editor

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Munkar and Nakir in Islamic eschatology, are angels who test the faith of the dead in their graves. According to Islam, after death, a person''s soul passes through a stage called barzakh, where it exists in the grave. The questioning will begin when the funeral is over and the last person of the funeral congregation has stepped 70 steps away from the grave. Nakir and Munkar prop the deceased soul upright in the grave and ask three questions: Who is your Lord? Who is your Prophet? What is your religion?". A righteous believer will respond correctly, saying that their Lord is Allah, that Muhammad is their prophet and that their religion is Islam. If the deceased answers correctly, the time spent awaiting the resurrection is pleasant. Those who do not answer as described above are chastised until the day of judgment. Muslims believe that a person will correctly answer the questions not by remembering the answers before death but by their iman and deeds such as salah and shahadah. "
