Graves are mentioned in the Quran in these verses:

[14:43] As they rush (out of the graves), their faces will be looking upward, their eyes will not even blink, and their minds will be horrified.

[22:7] And that the Hour is coming, no doubt about it, and that God resurrects those who are in the graves.

[35:22] Nor are the living and the dead; God causes whomever He wills to hear. You cannot make hearers out of those in the graves.

[54:7] With their eyes humiliated, they come out of the graves like scattered locusts.

[60:13] O you who believe, do not befriend people with whom God is angry, and who are hopelessly stuck in disbelief; they are just as hopeless as the disbelievers who are already in the graves.

[70:43] That is the day they come out of the graves in a hurry, as if herded to the (sacrificial) altars.

[82:1] When the heaven is shattered.

[82:2] The planets are scattered.

[82:3] The oceans are exploded.

[82:4] The graves are opened.

[82:5] Every soul will find out what caused it to advance, and what caused it to regress.

[100:9] Does he not realize that the day will come when the graves are opened?

[102:1] You remain preoccupied with hoarding.

[102:2] Until you go to the graves.

[102:3] Indeed, you will find out.

[102:4] Most assuredly, you will find out.

[102:5] If only you could find out for certain.

[102:6] You would envision Hell.

[102:7] Then you would see it with the eye of certainty.

[102:8] Then you will be questioned, on that day, about the blessings you had enjoyed.
