Life after death is one of beliefs of Islam, it encourages man to do good and stay away him from doing evil. This is because he realizes that a good deed will always bring him benefit, he knows that an evil deed wud harm him even if no one at all sees him do it, will have to be answered for, and will have adverse consequences, in the next life if not immediately in this one. Secondly, it teaches man to look at the inner worth of himself and of others, rather than the outward appearance like wealth, position, beauty.
As far I know, In the grave, there would be some questions like, Who is your God, who is prophet? and abt prayers. If someone hasnt offered prayers he wud be punished for that. I cant find any reference right now)
But I found this
|Surely God will raise all the dead. But God has His own plan of things. A day will come when the whole universe will be destroyed and then the dead will be resurrected to stand before God. That day will be the beginning of a life that will never end, and on that day every person will be rewarded by God according to his or her good or evil deeds"
"The explanation that the Quran gives about the necessity of life after death is what the moral consciousness of man demands. Actually, if there is no life after death, the very belief in God becomes meaningless or even if one believes in God, it would be n unjust and indifferent God, having once created man and now not being concerned with his fate"
"But those who disbelieve say, “The Hour (i.e. the Day of Judgment) will not come to us.” Say, “Yes, by my Lord, it will surely come to you. [God is] the Knower of the unseen.” Not absent from Him is an atom’s weight within the heavens or within the earth or [what is] smaller than that or greater, except that it is in a clear register - That He may reward those who believe and do righteous deeds. Those will have forgiveness and noble provision. But those who strive against Our verses [seeking] to cause failure (i.e. to undermine their credibility) - for them will be a painful punishment of foul nature. (Quran, 34:3-5)"
