Are there any proofs from the Qur’an or Sunnah for the validity of what is said that the Angel of Death calls out to the deceased while he is on the washing board, and what is said when he is placed in the grave, and what is said when the first night in the grave approaches, and what is said concerning Allah the Almighty by way of calls?
This dialogue was not mentioned in a sound Hadith from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, nor is there anything in the Book of Allah Almighty to indicate it. What the Angel of Death says to the deceased regarding matters of the unseen is from the unseen, and matters of the unseen are only to be taken from the Holy Quran and the sound Sunnah.
