Question: There
is a Hadith which says that the doors of Hell are closed during
the last ten days of Ramadan. Does that mean that if a person dies
during these last ten days of Ramadan, he goes straight to Heaven?
Answer:
The Hadith you have referred to symbolically depicts the fact that
God’s mercy becomes more abundant in these days for a person who asks His
forgiveness. People will enter Heaven or Hell after an account has been
taken from them on the Day of Judgement. Till then, the spirits of the
deceased reside will in Barzakh.
