135	pressing of the grave	The pressing of the grave, is this something that will occur to all of us on the first night ? what else does the pressing mean ?	Answered
169	looking at the dead, allowed?	Is it haraam to see the face of a dead person (namahram)? If so could you please explain the logic behind this. I personally think that their is never a chance of attraction from either side. The dead man/woman cannot see the one viewing the face; and the person viewing the face is only seeing for the purpose to get closer to allah. I belive that seeing the face helps a person have stronger emotions which allows reflection of oneself and imaginging oneself in that state; therefore leading to fear of allah swt. Please elaborate. Thank you	Answered
