2064. ‘Urwah bin Az-Zubair (narrated) that he heard Asmā’ bint Abī Bakr say: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood up and mentioned the trial with which a person will be tested in his grave. When he mentioned that the people became restless, which prevented me from understanding what the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had said. When they settled down, I said to a man who was near me: ‘May Allāh bless you, what did the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say at the end?’ He said: ‘It has been revealed to me that you will be tested in your graves with a trial close to that of the Dajjāl.’” (Sahīh)

Commentary
“The trial close to that of the Dajjal” signifies interrogation in the grave. It has been likened to the trial of the Dajjal, because both are formidable. To abide or cling to the word of truth in the face of terror, domination and powers of the Dajjal is synonymous to walking on the sharp edge of the sword.
