It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The believer is in a garden in his grave; his grave is widened for him by seventy cubits, and it is lit up for him like the moon on the night of the full moon. Do you know concerning whom this verse was revealed: 'Then indeed, for him will be a straitened life, and We will raise him on the Day of Resurrection blind'?" Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Do you know what the 'straitened life' (a life of hardship) means?" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is the punishment of the disbeliever in his grave. By the One in whose Hand is my soul! Ninety-nine dragons are set upon him. Do you know what a dragon is?" Then he said: "They are ninety-nine serpents, each of which has seven heads; they will blow (venom) into his (the disbeliever's) body, bite him and keep tearing at him until the Day of Resurrection is established."
