Can Shaheed or martyrs hear us?

Can a shaheed hear us ? I mean if my father is shaheed can he know that I cry for him and will he get my messages to him ? Will he be a part of my happiness and joy or not ?

Allah says in the Glorious Quran: And say not of those who are slain in the way of Allah: "They are dead." Nay they are living though ye perceive (it) not. Quran [2:154]

In the light of the above guidance of the Glorious Quran, it is indeed true that the martyrs are alive, but we are not in a position nor do we have such knowledge that we can perceive that.

The life in the grave is not like the life of this world. The martyrs are alive in al-barzakh. Life of al-barzakh comes in between life in this world and life in the Hereafter.

Dear sister, the basic principle concerning the dead is that they do not hear the words of the living humans, as Allah says in the glorious Quran: “but you cannot make hear those who are in graves” Quran[ 35:22]

Dear sister, the martyr cannot know what is happening on the earth and nor can the living make them hear anything. And Allah alone knows the best.
