Munkar and Nakir are the angels in charge of the trial of the grave.
Among the angels are also those who are in charge of the trial
of the grave. They are called Munkar and Nakir. Al-Bukhari, may
Allah have mercy on him, transmitted from Anas ,
that the Prophet , may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said:
When someone is placed in his grave, and his companions
turn and go, and he can still hear the tread of their
sandals, two angels come to him and make him sit up and
say to him, 'What do you say about this man, Muhammad ,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace?' He will say, 'I
testify that he is the slave of Allah and His Messenger.' It
will be said, 'Look at your place in the Fire. Allah has
given you, in exchange for it, a place in the Garden.'
The Prophet said:
