Will the deceased be resurrected before the tribulation of the Antichrist on the Day of Judgment, or will they remain in their graves?
The tribulation of the Antichrist (Dajjal) is the greatest tribulation since the creation of Adam until the Hour. All prophets warned their peoples against it. This tribulation specifically affects those alive at the time of his emergence. The dead in their graves will not be afflicted by him; rather, they have another tribulation specific to the graves, which is the questioning by the two angels about the Messenger Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, guided those who would live to see the Dajjal to keep away from him to be saved from his tribulation. He used to supplicate, saying: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the torment of the grave, and from the torment of the Fire, and from the trials of life and death, and from the tribulation of the Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal."
