About This Book
The Minor Resurrection by Umar Sulaiman al-Ashqar, translated by Nasiruddin al-Khattab, addresses a question everyone faces, namely what happens to a person after death. The book answers from the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him), with references given so readers can see the sources for themselves.
It covers death, the life of al-Barzakh between death and resurrection, the questioning by the angels in the grave and the punishment of the grave. It also discusses the signs of the Day of Judgment, including those that can already be seen today, and explains why the Hereafter matters.
This is Part 1 of Volume 5. It is followed by The Day of Resurrection (Part 2) and Paradise and Hell (Part 3).
