Visit the detailed timeline of what happens from the moment you’re buried until the Day of Judgment. Learn the terrifying reality of the grave’s questioning and how to prepare now.
Barzakh is the intermediate realm between death and the Day of Resurrection where every soul experiences either bliss or torment based on their earthly life. Islamic teachings from the Quran and authentic prophetic traditions describe this as a reality every person will face—the questioning by angels, the expansion or constriction of the grave, and a preview of eternal destiny. Understanding Barzakh transforms how Muslims view death, live their lives, and prepare for what comes after their final breath.
