Death is a long sleep, and when the day of resurrection comes, all will be resurrected.

In Islam, when someone dies, they will be buried without a coffin because they are only wrapped in a shroud. However, there will be exceptions for emergencies if the land or area where the graves are located is peat or watery land.
So if there is a word about discussing coffins, such as open your coffin, maybe it is just a figurative word or just a joke among Muslims in symbolizing death. Because indeed among the Muslims are not familiar with matters that discuss coffins.
But what is certain is that death for Muslims or adherents of Islam is the most important thing and often becomes a benchmark for life's problems. Where this life is a temporary life and the hereafter is the real life.
This world for Muslims is a place where humans look for provisions for the life hereafter. And everything that exists in this world is nothing eternal.
