Is it true that whoever dies on the eve of Friday will not be subjected to the torment of the grave, no matter what their deeds were?
A narrated by Al-Tirmidhi from Abdullah ibn Amr states that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No Muslim dies on Friday or on the night of Friday except that Allah protects him from the trial of the grave." Al-Tirmidhi described it as gharib (uncommon) and munqati' al- (with a broken chain of narration), and Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar deemed it weak. However, Sheikh Al-Albani said that it rises to the rank of (good) or (authentic) due to its multiple طرق (chains of narration). His saying, "except that Allah protects him from the trial of the grave," means that Allah preserves him from the torment and questioning of the grave.
