Question

Is the following narration reliable?

Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “I have not seen a sight more horrifying than [the punishment] of the grave.”

Imams Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah (rahimahumallah) have recorded this narration. Imam Tirmidhi has graded the narration sound (hasanun gharib).
