After this, the soul enters a new stage of existence called al-barzakh, the realm between this world and the Hereafter. The soul remains there until the Day of Resurrection, when it will be reunited with the body for judgment.\\n\\nThe life of barzakh is not like worldly life, but it is a real and conscious existence. The deceased are aware of those who visit and greet them, and they benefit from the good deeds done on their behalf, such as Qur’an recitation, charity, and supplication.\\n\\nAs for feeling the burial itself, the body does not experience physical sensation unless the soul is connected to it in a way that Allah knows best. These realities belong to the unseen, and our understanding of them is limited to what has been conveyed through revelation.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668da0570b76658b4c233497","tag":"Death: Other","count":37},{"_id":"668d9fe50b76658b4c23285c","tag":"Unseen: Other","count":22},{"_id":"686c08e55bca77ccedff968c","tag":"Unseen: The Afterlife","count":5}],"createdOn":"2025-10-16T15:36:26.355Z"}
