Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)

* In Vol.5, page 299/300 Hazrat quotes Allamah Hamawi (rah) in his commentary of Al-Ashbaah Wan Nazaair of Ibn Nujaim (rah) mentioning that a Muslim transgressor passing away on a Friday or in Ramadaan will be punished in the Qabr for a brief moment, and immediately thereafter the Azaab will be lifted and he will be protected from it.

* The one who passes away in Ramadhaan is saved from the punishment of the grave in the month of Ramadhaan. (Shaami vol. 2 pg. 165, H.M. Saeed and also Fataawa Mahmoodiya vol. 5 pg.299).



And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
