Bara bin `Azib (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "When a believer is questioned in the grave, he testifies that, `there is no true god except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. About him the Words of Allah, the Exalted, are: `Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the firm statement (The Testimony of Faith) in this world and the Hereafter". (14:27)[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith mentions both the parts of the Shahadah together, that is to say "La ilaha illallah, Muhammad-ur-Rasulullah" (There is no true god except Allah, and Muhammad (PBUH) is the Messenger of Allah).
The questioning in the grave is beyond question and is a part of Muslim Belief. Every Muslim will, by the Grace of Allah, give their correct answers in respect of Tauhid and Risalah.
