Is there any evidence to support the claim that Imam Musa Kazim (A.S) married his daughter, Bibi Heybat Khatoon (S.A), to the Prince of Azerbaijan in Baku? Additionally, are there two sons of Imam Ali Raza (A.S) buried there?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

I did not find any evidence supporting the claim that Imam Musa Al-Kadhim's daughter was married to a prince of Azerbaijan, nor any evidence of any son of Imam Ali Al-Ridha (AS) buried in Azerbaijan.

Those who claim that should give their evidence if they have any.

My father asked to be buried in our village, which we honored, though he had also agreed when we promised to take him instead to Najaf for burial. This was almost two years ago. What should we do as he was buried in a wooden box for later transfer?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If he agreed to take his body to Najaf for burial, and did not change his will after that, then you should take his body to Najaf for burial because it was his last will.

Where does the questioning by two angels occur? Is it within the material grave or in another spiritual realm? Does it take place immediately after death or is there a delay until burial?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

According to the narrations, the questioning by the two angles occurs after burial in the grave, unless the dead person has no grave because he was not buried for any reason e.g. drown in the sea or ocean or burnt in chemical or atomic or nuclear bomb and his dead body was not found, then it will happen after reasonable time after his death.

The narrations speak of the grave as a garden of paradise for the believers and that it is extended and expanded for them. It is the same material grave in which we bury the dead body?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

It is the same grave which the dead believer buried in. He feels and enjoys the paradise bounties even if his physical body turns to soil but he remains in his soul and spirit feels the happiness.

'Wassalam.
