The answer

Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned in Fath al-Bari that some jurists said that the names of the two angels who question the sinner in the grave are Munkar and Nakir, and those who question the obedient are Mubashshir and Bashir. A group of scholars, such as Mulla Ali al-Qari, Al-Mubarakfuri, and the author of Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi, transmitted this from him without objection. While the words of jurists on this matter are helpful, their authenticity cannot be definitively asserted unless a has been reported concerning it.
