The question

To what extent is the circulating talk true regarding the inspection of prayer in its ascending stages through the seven heavens, and its passing through nine inspections by specialized angels, who verify the correctness of the bowing, prostration, and recitation, the purity of the worshipper, and the worshipper's freedom from backbiting, lying, envy, slander, disobedience to parents, and drinking alcohol, followed by Allah Almighty's inspection of the intention and presence of the heart?

The answer

This statement is false and reprehensible, having no basis whatsoever. It is impermissible to narrate it except with the intention of refuting it, because it pertains to the unseen, which can only be known through infallible revelation. Nothing of the sort has been reported from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.

Muslims should be diligent and derive their information only from reliable sources. They should also pay attention to the authentic and established narrations from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, regarding encouragement and discouragement, for in them there is sufficiency and abundance.
