We hope for good and intercession for those who died among the people of Tawhid (monotheism) and were buried in Al-Baqi', due to the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Every prophet has a granted supplication, and every prophet hastened his supplication, but I have reserved my supplication as intercession for my Ummah until the Day of Resurrection. It will reach, Allah willing, whoever dies from my Ummah without associating anything with Allah." This does not prevent him from being punished for his sins. And intercession has been affirmed for whoever dies in Medina, due to his saying, peace and blessings be upon him: "Whoever is able to die in Medina, let him die there, for I shall intercede for whoever dies there."
