Questioning of the Grave
بِسۡمِ
ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In a dream, someone asked Shaykha Rabi’ah al-‘Adawiyyah al-Qaysiyyah al-Baswri, (q.s.), “What transpired when Munkar and Nakir came to you?”
Shaykha Rabi’ah
(q.s.) replied, “When they asked me, ‘Who is your Rabb?’, I said, ‘Go
back! Say to Allah, ‘When You had never forgotten
this weak woman despite Your Remembrance of Creation, how can she forget You,
when on Earth You were her only remembrance? Why do You Send angels to question her?’’”
