2. It was because of the piece of the slaughtered cow that the man
came back to life and informed about his murderer.
1. Can the dead be brought to life by striking it with a piece of the
slaughtered cow and they start speaking? If that is true then you too
should experiment it.
2. It is a sign of the Allah (swt). How can we do that?
1. So if the dead can speak by the command of Allah (swt) then the
dead can hear too by the command of Allah (swt). Else how a dead
person can hear on his own?
2. He hears on his own. Isn’t it is mentioned in ahadeeth that the dead
hear the footsteps. Here it is not mentioned that Allah (swt) makes
them hear. Ahadeeth dictates that the person hears the footsteps.
1. In those ahadeeth where it is mentioned that the dead person
speaks, it is not stated in there that Allah (swt) makes them hear. The
ahadeeth says that:
“The Prophet said, "When a funeral is ready and the men carry the
deceased on their necks (shoulders), if it was pious then it will say,
'Present me quickly', and if it was not pious, then it will say, 'Woe to it
(me), where are they taking it (me)?' And its voice is heard by
everything except mankind and if he heard it he would fall
unconscious."
(Narrated Abu Said Al Khudri – Sahih Al-Bukhari 2.400, 2.402, 2.462)
"الهم ارجل يمشون بها ام لهم ايد يبطشون بها ام لهم اعين
يبصرون بها ام لهم آذان يسمعون بها..."

It means that after death, though they have these things, they
cannot do anything as the body is lifeless. Moreover if the body is
disfigured, fire or earth decomposes it, then there is no question of
hearing or speaking, because the organ is impaired or absent so the
means are absent and hence the faculty. If Allah (swt) wills, he can
make the dead hear and speak even without these things. But the
dead attain those things himself as he lacks ears and tongue. That’s
why, Allah (swt) has mentioned in Quran:
A deaf has ears but his hearing power is impaired, so when a deaf
cannot hear anything then how can a dead hear anything, when he
lacks even those ears. But if Allah (swt) wills he can very well make
the dead hear even in that condition. None other than Him can make
it hear. That’s why Allah (swt) states in Quran:
