Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The companions asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the people of A'raf. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They will be people who were martyred in the way of Allah, but they were disobedient to their fathers. So, martyrdom prevented them from entering Hell, and disobedience to parents prevented them from entering Paradise. Thus, they will be on a wall between Paradise and Hell. When their flesh and fat melt away and Allah has finished judging the rest of creation, and when no one remains without reckoning, Allah will cover them with His mercy and admit them into Paradise by His mercy."
