What happens after death in Islam-do we go straight to Jannah or Jahannam, or wait until Yawm al-Qiyamah?

Assalamu alaykum, I've been thinking about this a lot. When a person passes away, do they immediately go to Jannah or Jahannam, or is there a waiting period until the Day of Judgment? I know we have the grave and the questioning, but I'm not sure about the details. JazakAllahu khairan for any insights.

Think of the grave as a waiting room with a preview. The questioning and squeeze happen right after burial, and your deeds determine the comfort or torment.

Bro, the soul goes to Barzakh, a waiting realm. We get questioned in the grave and get a taste of what's coming. It's not the final destination yet.

Yeah Barzakh is the in-between. Good souls get a window to Jannah, bad ones feel the heat of Jahannam, but the real deal is after Qiyamah.
