Abstract

The purpose of the current research was to investigate the characteristics and features of purgatory and the facts surrounding this abode of existence from the perspective of the Qur'an and hadiths. One of the most important religious teachings is the life of Barzakhi or the world after death and the stages related to it. From the point of view of religion, death is not the end of life, but the beginning of the most important events and events. Based on this, examining the world of purgatory and proving it in terms of reason, proof, verses and traditions are worthy of careful consideration. How to live in purgatory and the stages after it are among the issues that have always occupied the human mind. Some verses of the Quran such as: Believers / 101-100; Al Imran / 169-170; So / 27-26; Momin / 11 and 46; Hypocrites / 10; Nahal/32 clearly shows the existence of the world of purgatory and its characteristics, as the eternal life of the martyrs of God's way and their rewards is a clear proof of the world of purgatory and the blessings of purgatory. Also, there are many narrations, some of which are claimed to be frequent - about the world of purgatory and the quality of life in it, and reports about the conditions of divine saints, pious and sinful people, and the extent and quality of their relationship with the world and the stages of the world of purgatory. .
