In our daily life, how easily we ignore the most sincere friend and the most effective one infront of Allah.
Rasulullah (Sallalloho alaihe Wa-aalay wasallam) said:
"When a man dies and his relatives are busy in funeral, there
stands an extremely handsome man by his head. When the dead body
is shrouded, that man gets in between the shroud and the chest of
the deceased.
When after the burial, the people return home, 2 angels,
Munkar and Nakeer(names of two special Angels), come in the grave and
try to separate this handsome man so that they may be able to
interrogate the dead man in privacy about his faith.
But the handsome man says, “He is my companion, he is my friend. I
will not leave him alone in any case. If you are appointed for
interrogation, do your job. I cannot leave him until I get him
admitted into Paradise”.
Thereafter he turns to his dead companion and says, "I am the Qura’an,
which you used to read, sometimes in a loud voice and sometimes in a
low voice. Do not worry. After the interrogation of Munkar and Naker,
you will have no grief.
When the interrogation is over, the handsome man arranges for him from
Al-Mala’ul A’laa (the angels in Heaven) a silk bedding filled with musk.
Rasulullah (Sallalloho alaihe Wa-aalay wasallam) said:
“On the Day of Judgement, before Allah, no other intercessor will
have a greater status than the Qura’an, neither a Prophet nor an angel.”
